Following its theatrical release, A Disturbance in the Force is now available for fans to bring home on Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital. The home release comes a few weeks after marking the Star Wars Holiday Special‘s 45th anniversary. As far as I can tell, there are no bonus features for the home video release.

While theaters are currently fighting for their survival in a world destined for streaming, Blockbuster remains the one of the only places where you can still rent movies.  Okay, so it may just be a single Blockbuster store that’s still standing.  It’s a stark reminder of an era that…
