I never thought it was a good idea.

Regardless, I’ve gone back and edited the comment to make it more PC.

Really? I thought my comment was rather crass.

You should put that in your sig.

While I don’t recommend allowing your cats to inbreed indiscriminately, it is kind of interesting to watch how genetic drift alters the physical attributes within a cat population over thirteen years.

Methinks you’d have to ask Jay for that.

Also, as I pointed out on another thread about half a year ago, if the DS really made scientific sense (e.g. if it had a gravitational pull), then those stormtroopers would not have been standing where they are in your screenshot, but rather like this;

O hai, new personal canon!

Done and done.

Is this for real?

Seriously, is this from an actual canon SW comic? This seems more like Robot Chicken joke. I honestly can’t read this panel without hearing Seth MacFarlane’s voice as Palpatine.

There’s a reason I stopped reading the Vader series after the third issue.

Yeah, in the real world there is no upside down in space.

But if you look at Star Wars or especially Star Trek, you will notice that the ships always are like horizontally aligned. It is a normal thing in movies to make “it look good”.

Yeah, I’ve noticed that. It’s become a pet peeve of mine.

Why?
Can you imagine how hard it would be to tell a story if spaceships didn’t stay “upright” most of the time. It’d also be very disorientating to watch. It would make scientific sense, but in cinematically it would be an absolute mess.
(Also SW is basically just Middle-Earth in space. It’s not exactly known for its scientific accuracy.)

Let’s just say Babylon 5 showed me it could be done.

I was worried this new trailer would disappoint. i was wrong, so very wrong! absolutely psyched to see this in December!

Change “December” to “whenever the hell I’ll be able to watch it”, and this sums up my thoughts as well.

why not December?

For varying reasons, I don’t go out to the movies. That leaves me to wait 'til the movie goes out on video/Netflix/whatever.

I’m still seeing the venom avatar. I’m okay with that,

Yeah, at least venom isn’t in a come-hither pose.

ZkinandBonez said:

Also, why is the Death Star up-side-down in this shot?

There is no upside down in space. It’s all three-dimensional, remember? 😛

I’m saving my Jennifer Lawrence avatar for next month.

Little early.

Couldn’t wait. The Venom avatar had already grown wearisome.

So is vaders NO!! in Episode 3 the best acting in the whole PT?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Figures that a veteran of Star Wars would deliver the best acting.

Yeah, [INSERT JAMES EARL JONES STAND-IN HERE] is a master of the craft.

Once upon a time, I used to be able to look up into the night sky and enjoy watching the stars. Now I get vertigo whenever I try.
