Well, seems like the TFA Blu-ray/DVD will be released April 5, 2016.
Abrams have also said that a good portion of the deleted scenes will be made available.I hope that bit from the novelization where Leia sends an envoy to the senate on Hosnian Prime is in there. I think that one scene would clear up a lot of the vagueness about the state of the galaxy that a lot of folks have problems with.
Maybe, but it seems unlikely that they even filmed it considering that it happened before Leia’s first appearance on Takodona. It seem unlikely to me that they ever considered putting it into the film, but it’s not impossible.
We do however know from the BTS footage that was shown on the Disney channel that they did film an Unkar Plutt scene on Takodona, so I think that’s very likely to appear. Unless of course Disney find it too violent, which is probably why it was cut in the first place.
