Open Post: Hosted By Daisy Ridley And Oscar Isaac Crooning Out A Christmas Song
The look Oscar Isaac is giving while reaching for Daisy Ridley’s hand is the exact same look I give while reaching for the maple dip in a Tim Hortons donut box.
During a Twitter Q&A to promote a little independent film that will barely break even (sarcasm level: 8 billion) called Star Wars: The Force Awakens, future millionaires Daisy Ridley and Oscar Isaac were asked if they would consider singing a duet together. As if a Star Wars Q&A wasn’t dampening the Internet’s panties enough, they went ahead and did it. Daisy and Oscar sang the beginning of “Baby It’s Cold Outside“, which I’m assuming they chose because it’s a royalty-free Christmas classic and they didn’t have any extra cash in the Star Wars marketing budget to pay Silk for the rights to “Freak Me.” That’s got to be it.

I saw Inside Llewyn Davis, so I already knew that Oscar Isaac could sing. But what I didn’t know is that he could go full-BublĂ©. And I didn’t hate it! Wait a minute – maybe this is Disney’s way of subtly teasing a remake of the disaster that is the Star Wars Holiday Special. Normally this would be where I shout “Disney ruins EVERYTHING!!!“, but now that I think of it, a remake wouldn’t be such a bad thing.
