When Daddy Disney’s asleep, the kids come out and tweet. An epic twitter back and forth ensued between the official twitter accounts for Star Wars and Marvel Entertainment. It was quite a star-studded event, and it even brought about tweets from a few celebrities like:
Peter Mayhew…
@starwars @Marvel Are there going to be cookies with the blue milk? If so I’m in…
â Peter Mayhew (@TheWookieeRoars) January 23, 2014
…Deadpool…
â Wade Wilson (@Deadpool) January 23, 2014
…and Harry Knowles
@Marvel @starwars I can’t wait for @pattonoswalt @DisneyPictures and an Infinity Gauntlet makes all this real!
â Harry Knowles (@headgeek666) January 23, 2014
But the main event was something to be remembered and definitely made twitter a digital madhouse for the time it took place. Feast your eyes on the most riveting exhibit of 140-character trash talking. Ring the bell and lets get it on!
@starwars Can we borrow some lightsabers? We have…science…to do. #AskStarWars

How about Mace Windu for Nick Fury? RT @Marvel: Throw in Yoda and a few Hutts, then…maybe.

We might could. How about @Deadpool for Boba Fett? RT @starwars: How about Mace Windu for Nick Fury?

Throw in a few of Stark’s armors and we’ll consider. RT @Marvel: We might could. How about @Deadpool for Boba Fett?

@starwars Just remember–we have a Hulk.

@Marvel Just remember–it’s not wise to upset a Wookiee.

@starwars We can handle a few scruffy looking nerf herders. Have ya seen Wolverine? #sohairy
â Marvel Entertainment (@Marvel) January 23, 2014
@Marvel Who’s scruffy lookin’? Runt would fit right in with the Ewoks! #theyrehairytoo
â Star Wars (@starwars) January 23, 2014
@starwars Well that’s just mean. It seems you’ve gone over to the Dark Side. Don’t make us send Galactus over there.
â Marvel Entertainment (@Marvel) January 23, 2014
@Marvel Alright, alright. Let’s not get carried away. We’ll see you at the cantina. We hear there’s a great band playing tonight.
â Star Wars (@starwars) January 23, 2014
@starwars Heck yeah. The blue milk and chimichangas are on us!
â Marvel Entertainment (@Marvel) January 23, 2014
You have to admit, this friendly little squabble pretty much validated everyone’s reason for making a Twitter account in the first place. My favorite bit was the trade proposal from Star Wars, giving up Mace Windu for Nick Fury. Hilarious! Who do you think won the Twitter battle between the two? Let us know in the comments.
I have to give the win to Star Wars, as the scruffy looking nerf herder was Han Solo, not Chewbacca. But Star Wars didn’t catch it, and gave Han’s reply, so…
Epic…
Marvel won but I was rooting for Star Wars.
When you pull out the HULK SMASH card, you always win!!!
This is awesome. I wish more big brands would do some fun stuff like this. Big props whoever came up with the idea and green lit it. Too funny. Fantastic.
@Jetpack and @Sleepyhead… They are definitely run by different people, in different places, at their respective companies. Star Wars in SF and I think Marvel is in NYC.
Amelia . if you, thought Thomas `s article is astonishing, last tuesday I got a top of the range Dodge since I been earnin $7788 this past five weeks and more than ten/k last month . it’s definitly the easiest job I have ever done . I started this 6 months ago and almost straight away started to make minimum $81, per-hr . you could check here http://www.jobsUR.COM
LOL! That was hysterical…
We laugh and joke around, but in all honesty next Year’s “Guardians of The Galaxy” and the eminent Episode #7 could easily lead into a Comic Crossover in a Galaxy Far Far Away… Who knows, maybe we’ll catch Boba-Fett cameo in a Planet Hulk movie? Or how’s about after Episode 9, the new Republic has to bust out the old Empire DeathStar plans and build one of their own to take on a Galactus…? I’m looking forward to 2025 …
I imagine it’s two guys who work on the same floor of “Disney Social Media” somewhere. Still awesome, though.
Hilarious, although the last tweet shoud have been… “The blue milk and the SHWARMAS are on us!”
Why do I get the feeling it’s the same guy responding to both accounts?
I witnessed this live last night. It was a sight to behold.
Um, the World won this one. Epic!
DID THEY FORGET THE DEATH STAR?!
It appears that @starwars forgot about the Emperor’s force storms.
Marvel won definitely! I mean Star Wars backed down when the world eater was mentioned.
marvel all the way!!!
As much as I’d love to root for Star Wars, I’d rather have a mf’n Nick Fury than Mace “I got thrown out a” Windu…
