Star Wars: The Dark Side of the Force is Strong in Australia

To celebrate the opening of box office ticket sales for Star Wars: The Last Jedi in Australia, enthusiastic fans were greeted to the sight of a 250-foot-high Kylo Ren lightsaber appearing in the sky over Sydney Harbour. Just don’t ask us why that Imperial officer and ninja are rapidly shaking their heads from side-to-side or why there’s a ninja there at all, for that matter.
