BB-8 Will Watch The Force Awakens With You, And It’s Adorable

Even droids are excited about the Blu-ray release.

Now that Star Wars: The Force Awakens is available on Blu-ray and DVD, chances are that you’ll be watching it at home. If the trend in my household is any indication, this is something that will take place over and over again. Multiple times since the moment the discs arrive at the house.

Here’s something you can now do if you’re looking to add something special to the experience. If you own Sphero’s app-controlled BB-8 droid, he will watch the film (and react to it) along with you.

It’s adorable. Here’s a taste:

Thanks to Kottke for the hat tip. This further brightened an already awesome day.
