People are still talking about The Force Awakens? Don’t get me wrong I love Episode VII just as much as the next person but the movie has been out on home video for almost three months now and don’t you think we really should move on to the next best thing that’s about to happen? You know Rogue One: A Star Wars Story?

By the way Han shot first.

People are still talking about A New Hope? Don’t get me wrong I love Episode IV just as much as the next person but the movie has been out on home video for thirty years now and don’t you think we really should move on to the next best thing that’s about to happen? You know The Empire Strikes Back?

People are still talking about The Empire Strikes Back? Don’t get me wrong…

Is this what we can expect then? We can’t still be talking about the last movie when there’s a new movie coming out in a few months?

LOL that is so true. Good point.

It’s a new world with new enemies and new threats but there is still one man you can always count on… JB-007. Daniel Craig is “Bond…James Bond” in The Force Awakens.

So yesterday I talked to a guy who worked on some of the effects in TFA. (Notably, he did the crawl)
He confirmed that there were some differences between the theatrical cuts in the US versus overseas. He said some of the smaller effects were not entirely finished when the film was shipped. He didn’t get into specifics but for one instance. The holographic map to Luke. He stated that in some version (I believe he says the UK version) it did not have a line showing the path to Luke and was just the map itself. In other places around the world the line was orange, and in some the line was red.

He said that the 2D, United States theatrical version is what ended up on the bluray.

Interesting! I wonder if there will be anyone who gets their hands on a print of the overseas version. I bet it might end up being useful for a fan edit or something of the sort.

Honestly I want to see a fan edit of The Force Awakens with the scene with me entering inside my fathers ship for the first time in a long time edited back in it makes even a hardened villain such as myself cry.

People are still talking about you? Don’t get me wrong I love you just as much as the next person but your documentary has been out on home video for almost three months now and don’t you think we really should move on to the next best thing that’s about to happen? You know, whomever the new villain will be in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story?

So James, when you’re not paid to talk about movies you’re involved in (Terminator 5 review… I don’t blame you but you deeply know it was a shitty movie) what do you really think of the greatest 2015 success ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJKtPJk3b2M

Probably, but that won’t fix how long it is, nor how little I agree with it.

I wish that instead of them waisting time on a last-minute, Palpatine-by-another-name CGI hologram, we just heard Snoke’s voice and Snoke’s appearance would be left to VIII or IX, where they would have more time to work on it and JJ “must rehash everything” Abrams wouldn’t ruin it.

That’s what they get when they decide on his look with only 8 weeks until release. Hopefully his appearance is a smoke screen or he’ll do some essence transfer shit.

EDIT:

Kasdan also wrote TFA. I’m getting a bit tired of people blaming only JJ for taking stuff from STAR WARS.

JJ didn’t write his Star Trek’s at all, but it’s mostly somehow his fault that some people don’t like them. People just blame directors for things.

Well, if he actively chooses to work with shit writers …
