Nooooooooooooooooooo

Yoda was never young.

Even though George put a little fence around exploring Yoda’s past, you know someone at Lucasfilm must be thinking about it. Any potential movies before TPM are going to have to go back before Yoda was around to avoid the issue.

Meanwhile over a dozen of the grieving families who lost loved ones in Parkland have been getting regular death threats since the shooting. New “red flags” are still popping up all over the field – let’s hope law enforcement manages to find a way to act on some of these other ones.

By potential copycats or those wanting them to not speak up? Sick people either way.

Wow, does RT moderate that crap at all? Throwing personal insults at the director is beyond the pale.

Sorry, that doesn’t really fly, Star Wars was never “known for its originality.”

You’ve got to be joking. Star Wars was the first movie of it’s kind. It doesn’t get much more original than that.

You should see the letters column of magazines like Cinefantastique back in 1977. Lucas was accused of ripping off everything from Lensman to Dune.
Back then you really had to be ticked off to write a letter and lick a stamp. 😛

Pretty sure Iron Man was. I’ve seen 35mm prints on Ebay.

Snoke kills Dumbledore 😛

I don’t think anyone in the Trumpyverse™ knows or cares how bad accepting such gifts makes them look.

Almost makes up for the bloody Oscar snub. 😛

This might be the Shatner Oscars bit, but I’m not signing up to find out.

Scripts are rewritten all the time, even during filming. That’s why they use nearly every color in the spectrum for revised pages.

So, it’s okay to publicly like Voyager now? 😛

I also don’t understand the joy people get out of dancing. I feel like a Martian watching people jumping around and throwing their appendages around to loud sounds. Not to say I haven’t done so myself.

Agreed.

I can understand it from a distance but I don’t want to do it myself. The spectacle I’m making overcomes any potential joy.

I don’t know how I’d get through my day without music though.

There is something liberating about dancing in costume when nobody sees the real you. I wouldn’t be caught dead dancing as myself. 😉

That LaPierre guy is a truly repulsive little man. That rant dressed up as a speech may have been swiped from the script of one of those 1950’s Red Scare films.
I bet the NRA wishes they still had Chuck Heston around to make them look good.

Oh my god.

It’s like if you guys had to define for me what a television is.

I don’t think most people not familiar with television studio lingo would be familiar with chyron. They certainly were not when I was in college.

Well ok but everyone knows what a television or silver is.

We didn’t choose names that we didn’t know the meaning of.

You haven’t seen that new iPad commercial yet. 😉

Just re-watched the home video trailer. Funny how there are no Canto Bight scenes.

They were not in the theatrical trailer either…

Poita has had to deal with evacuating from brushfires last week, and health issues this week. He’s going to be offline for a few days at least.

As Lexx pointed out in the other TLJ thread…

TLJ home video trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ecd4eA067P0

Hmmm, Canto Bight is nowhere to be seen in the trailer. I wonder why? 😉

It wasn’t in the theatrical trailer either…

Maybe updates to classics like the Death Star playset will follow. The barge might actually be bigger than that G.I. Joe aircraft carrier! 😉

Somebody was asleep at the wheel claiming the Imperial Shuttle was impractical to make into a toy back in the 80’s, as Kenner did make one. 😛

TV’s Frink said:

More than one screen. :p

It’s not wise to upset a Wookiee. 😛

So what is multi screen?

Because the OT never recycled any abandoned ideas/designs left over from a previous film. 😉
