Is anyone else totally apathetic regarding the new Star Wars movies?

I have no more love for TFA than I do for ROTJ, and I have absolutely no interest in the upcoming Han Solo flick, but I still want to catch Rogue One and I am curious to know what TLJ brings to the table.

FTFY

Verdammt!

So I just broke my audio technicas after falling on my sister’s shitty bike. Serves me right for biking with anything other than shitty fucking headphones.

I really think for safety reasons you should not wear any headphones while operating a bicycle.

This has been a Darth Id Safety Tip.™ “Govern yourself accordingly.” ™

Please note, this is the first time Darth Id has demonstrated that he cares about the well-being of anyone else. I’m not crying; I swear it’s just allergies!

For your information there’s an inflammation in my tear gland.

An ice pick lobotomy should take care of that. . . .

Has anyone read the Zahn novel Outbound Flight? I know I stated in my first post that I wasn’t interested in post-PT novels, but having read the Hand of Thrawn I’m now kind of curious about what Zahn had in mind when describing Thrawn’s backstory. I’m a bit skeptical though as it lists Obi-Wan and Anakin as characters, but I don’t know how important they are to the story.

Would anyone recommend this book, or is it a post-PT retconned mess like a lot of stories from the early 2000’s were?
(I’ve already had some issues with how convoluted Hand of Thrawn was, but a lot of that I imagine would have been easier to ignore if the duology hadn’t been so damn long.)

Zahn also wrote a book in 2004 called Survivor’s Quest which I know absolutely nothing about, but it has Luke, Mara and Thrawn on the cover, so I am a little bit intrigued.

I never got far into Outbound Flight, but I do recall that Anakin and Obi-Wan are featured prominently – at least early in the book.

Searching for a bit of Star Wars &quot;making of&quot; footage
Time

Just watched that video. Once again, I found myself reading the comment section against my better judgement, where I found this gem:

It took video games almost 20 years in the future 1996, to become full 3d. And this is 1977 and that dude it rendering full 3d images…haha thats just fucking mind blowing! My guess it they most likely had a rendering farm, with its dozen, if not hundreds of computer all connected to one to have more memory and stuff. And this dude made a full 3d model of creatures and jabba the hut back 1977…that tech was dozens of years ahead of its time.

The Star Wars Duology: Divergent Edition (AKA the ANH/TESB fan-edits DuracellEnergizer would like to make but probably never will)
Time

I’ve come up with a few addition changes I’d make to A New Hope: Divergent Edition. They are as follow:

ADDITIONAL CHANGE #1

Add secondary lightsaber glows onto all nearby surfaces.

IMPETUS FOR CHANGE

Since lightsaber blades generate a whole lotta light, it’d make sense for some of that light to fall onto surrounding surfaces.

ADDITIONAL CHANGE #2

Add cuts and bruises to Leia’s face in all post-interrogation/pre-Yavin IV scenes.

IMPETUS FOR CHANGE

To drive home just how bad she was treated while detained aboard the Death Star.

The Democrats are not doing well, they didn’t show up to the hearings for Trump’s nominees so the committee rules were suspended to allow them to continue without the party, and now the Senate will revoke the filibuster for the Supreme Court nomination.

If Dems continue to be a no-show, we’ll effectively end up in a one-party system fast.

I just remember Dominic saying that it was only the Republican’s who were making it all about “sides” and I did not agree. I certainly don’t relish being right at least some of the time but it’s been more than obvious that it is happening. People fear change but change is here and we either go down complaining or we find a way to make it positive for everyone as best we can.

Why do I even bother

We also both did agree that it should not be this way but it is. And you’re not like Frink so don’t let him drag you down. 😉

back door insult.

Nah, everyone is allowed to say whatever they want as long as they use a winky or say LOL.

You deserve to be disemboweled with your own penis for saying this, LOL. 😉

Jealous?

Dammit. I knew this makeup wouldn’t cover up my greenish skin.

Duracell is really Kermit The Frog? Hell yeah!!!
