to call the 501st cosplayers? That's going a little bit too far.

 

They dress up in costumes and play stormtroopers. If that isn't cosplay, what is it?

I'm with Ray on this one.  Those guys are dressing up and pretending to be... actors who dressed up and pretended.  It's pretend pretending.  The 90-minute piece is Lucas catering to the portion of the fan base that drinks the Kool Aid. 

He may be a lot of things, but savvy businessman is still top of the list.  The TFNers are guaranteed profit from every revenue stream he can come up with.  From a wealth & power perspective,it's wise to put them before us.  There's no honor or integrity in doing so, but he's printing money.  Too bad for us.
