President Obama Ends Press Conference By Saying He's Going To Star Wars

Even the President of the United States is in a hurry to go see Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

President Barack Obama ended his final press conference of the year by telling the White House Press Corps, "Ok everybody, I gotta get to Star Wars."

This kind of activity shouldn't come as any surprise from a president who has appeared in a Spider-Man comic book, and is known to collect old issues of Conan.

That said, you probably shouldn't spoil the movie for him. He does know a lot of drone operators.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens in theaters today. If you're in the Washington D.C. area, and you notice men in black suits and sunglasses positioned at all exits, then take a look around for the President.
