Hate, instigate, and regurgitate.
Hate, instigate, and regurgitate.
It’s a great time to be a Star Wars fan. We have new movies and animated series and books and so much going on, but it’s also a sad time to be a Star Wars fan, because it’s obvious history has been rewritten and the Star Wars we all know that started all of this will not be widely known to future generations.
Sometimes that PORG, he looks right into ya. Right into your eyes. Y’know the thing about a PORG, he’s got… lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes. When he comes at ya, doesn’t seem to be livin’… until he bites ya. And those black eyes roll over white, and then… oh, then you hear that terrible high-pitch screamin’, the ocean turns red, and spite of all the poundin’ and the hollerin’, they all come in and they… rip you to pieces.
Power Rangers was the Bible of my youth.
Let me tell you about this thing I call Star Wars.
Porgs look kinda fatty. I bet they would taste great smoked.
Those red guards look awesome! Actually, everything looks awesome, but especially those!
What about The Empire Strikes Back?
HEY GUYS IT USED TO BE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE NOW IT’S CLOSER TO THE END SO WHAT DOES THAT MAKE IT?
Depends. It’s presently my favorite SW movie and one of the two great sequels ever made. But if the Han Solo movie sucks, I’m wiping my Harmy flash drive and throwing out my BDs, and then it will be a useless mid-end preintersequel.
Just go ahead and send those to me.
I still own a vcr. It’s in the spare bedroom. I bet it still works.
I need the OUT in HD while I can still see in HD.
I need it now! I’m not getting any younger!
Is anyone?
How old are you anyway?
44
How did Chewie get a stick? I don’t see any trees.
That’s true. I guess he could just use the Force.
I need it now! I’m not getting any younger!
I’d do anything for a disc with 4K77 on it.
Will everyone just keep off Alderan’s lawn!
Also, the porgs look like the only food source on the island and Luke doesn’t look very skinny.
That is one of the things I hated about the prequels. I’m all up for redemption and everything, but when you slaughter a school full of kids, I don’t think you get to come back from that.
Is that Force ghost thing a plot leak or just a rumor? That doesn’t sound good at all.
I don’t care what the reviews say, I absolutely loved it!

Fleetwood Mac is the new cantina band?
Colin Trevorrow Defends ‘Star Wars: Episode IX’ Directing Gig After ‘Book of Henry’ Reviews
“Not only did I grow up on these stories, like all of us did, [but] I think that the values of Star Wars are values that I hold very close and very dear in my life. I feel that the message of the way that the Force teaches you to treat other people and show respect for others, and the way it guides you through life, is really important to me. And I hope everybody would realize that that set of stories has affected me as deeply in my life as it has affected them.
I think the challenge for me is to recognize that everyone has their own personal relationship with these stories, and it’s different depending on who you are. And I need to make a film that you’ll appreciate, even if your experience with it was different, which is making something that will be deeply emotionally resonant and satisfying for people all around the world. And I think about it a lot.”
“There tends to be a lot of assumptions made about control, but the reality is, it’s a collaboration. It’s not me locked in a room with the producers trying to get in and me saying, ‘I’m making my decisions!’ It is a much more collaborative process. I think that except for very, very rare circumstances, there is no such thing as final cut anymore.
And I think the best-case scenario for any film is that the producer and the writer and the director are all on the same page and making the same movie. I’ve been fortunate enough in all the films that I’ve made so far that we haven’t had internal conflicts, as far as the movie that we were making. That can happen, and I know that’s frustrating for all involved when it does That’s not a situation I’m involved in.”
“Kathy is someone who has been a mentor my entire life, but I didn’t know it until I started working with her, and I saw how much of her soul and of her storytelling skill and her ability to read into the humanity of an individual goes into the films that she makes and how much of what I’ve loved about so many of those films came from her,” he said. “It’s something that I learn more about everyday. At this moment, she is really my key collaborator in what I’m doing, along with a group that she has built of incredible thinkers and storytellers. It’s going to certainly result in a movie very different from any that I’ve ever made because it’s not just me. It’s a group of people who deeply care about it.”
The director also explained that he travels as much as possible so he can absorb the experiences of people around the world to guide his filmmaking. “I make a lot of my choices not just [based] on what I want to see, but what I know my son and my daughter want to see and what other people I meet will want to see,” he said. “I’m always listening.”
The Problem of Owen Lars would be a great book title.
Luke is in TESB? Spoilers!
From the sounds coming out of D23, Infinity War is going to be amazing!
It reminds me of the batmobile from the animated series.
