Star Trek: Picard | NYCC Trailer

Can’t wait to go back so I can finally get the full experience. I think that ride is the key to bringing that whole land to life.

Added trailer for television:
War of the Worlds

It’s a third person action adventure with some light RPG elements. Your ship is the central hub of the game where you can talk to your crew between missions as well as also pick where you want to go next. You’re free to fly back to any planet you’ve visited previously.

But Tim Curry’s performance on the latter seasons stuck out like a sore thumb.

Yeah Ambercrombie was fantastic but I’m really hoping they got McDiarmid to redo Curry’s stuff. But I doubt it, it was probably just this quick scene and maybe new material for the new season of Clone Wars.

They’ve redubbed the Emperor with Ian McDiarmid for The Siege of Lothal

I have so many questions.

I figure it’s the same situation as to how they got Frank Oz for Rebels. They asked for some additional lines while they were already in the studio for other things.

I really wish I could hear them one after the other to better appreciate the comparison

Here’s the original performance by Sam Witwer.

Man, seeing that Blurrg brings warm feelings to my heart.

Well now this interview takes on a new weight.

‘Star Wars’ Shocker: Marvel’s Kevin Feige Developing New Movie for Disney

Lucasfilm’s Kathleen Kennedy “is pursuing a new era in ‘Star Wars’ storytelling, and knowing what a die-hard fan Kevin is, it made sense for these two extraordinary producers to work on a ‘Star Wars’ film together,” Walt Disney Studios co-chairman Alan Horn tells The Hollywood Reporter.

To the surprise of no one, Kevin Feige is a huge Star Wars fan. It might surprise many, however, that the Marvel Studios chief is going to be developing a Star Wars movie as Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy makes new plans for a wave of projects set in the universe, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Feige had discussed a foray into the Star Wars universe in a late summer meeting with Kennedy and studio co-chairmen Alan Horn and Alan Bergman, sources say. In response to a query from THR, Walt Disney Studios co-chairman and chief creative officer Horn said, “We are excited about the projects Kathy and the Lucasfilm team are working on, not only in terms of Star Wars but also Indiana Jones and reaching into other parts of the company including Children of Blood and Bone with Emma Watts and Fox. With the close of the Skywalker Saga, Kathy is pursuing a new era in Star Wars storytelling, and knowing what a die-hard fan Kevin is, it made sense for these two extraordinary producers to work on a Star Wars film together.”

so unless you really want to restore the pre-BD Wookiee hut rooftops on Kashyyyk, the HDTV of that one is kind of redundant.

I never knew about this. What an odd thing to change.

I have a feeling a lot of TFA edits are gonna have a bit of a continuity issue on their hands, as I’m sure they’re going to use the Leia “I don’t care” scene in TROS.

Also, is it stated in the movies (OT) that the Empire is drafting people? I kinda figured it was indoctrination and the lure of the darkside.

BIGGS: I know it’s a long shot, but if I don’t find them I’ll do what I can on my own… It’s what we always talked about. Luke, I’m not going to wait for the Empire to draft me into service. The Rebellion is spreading and I want to be on the right side – the side I believe in.
…
LUKE: Well, I’ll be at the Academy next season… after that who knows. I won’t be drafted into the Imperial Starfleet that’s for sure… Take care of yourself, you’ll always be the best friend I’ve got.

As an aside, this convo with Luke completely dispels the EU misconception that Luke was joining an Imperial Academy. Why would Biggs and Luke be worried about being drafted into the Empire if they were already signing up? On the contrary, it points to the Academy either being part of a local municipality or the equivalent of a trucker school. Just one of those things that the EU got wrong that has always bugged me.

Bill Burr On Filming “The Mandalorian”, The New Star Wars Show

Here’s a video of someone demonstrating Disney+:
I already have Disney+ !!! First impressions of the trial in The Netherlands!

Except Ahsoka isn’t a Jedi and hasn’t been one since the Clone Wars. The Jedi are a specific organization that she left. Just because you commune with the Force doesn’t automatically make you a Jedi.

I didn’t think about this before but they do already have a live action Hondo costume. There’s a video briefing by Hondo on the Millenium Falcon ride right before you enter the cockpit, where instead of an animatronic, Hondo is played by an actor in makeup and costume. It could be they borrowed it from The Mandalorian.

Oh, just found some video of Hondo appearing in person in the park.

I’ve seen the feel of it compared to RO a few times now. Here’s a quote straight from the man about the kind of vibe he’s going for with the series:

Jon Favreau said:

If you notice, there’s a certain look that the Mandalorian lead character has, there’s a size that the spaceship is, there’s a scale that lines up with the Original Trilogy. I’m trying to evoke the aesthetics of not just the Original Trilogy but the first film. Not just the first film but the first act of the first film. What was it like on Tatooine? What was going on in that cantina? That has fascinated me since I was a child, and I love the idea of the darker, freakier side of Star Wars, the Mad Max aspect of Star Wars.

That said, this is EXACTLY what I’ve wanted from new Star Wars!

Jeez, these Star Wars covers are getting worse with each release.

I think they’re an improvement over the 2011 boxset:

Star Wars Resistance introduced a character named Commander Pyre:

Even with the falcon using lightspeed it’s still portrayed as taking some time to get bespin…imo.

The Falcon’s hyperdrive was offline on their way to Bespin. That’s the reason they went there.

Going back to the original Star Wars. After they discover the remains of Alderaan they encounter a Tie Fighter. At first Luke thinks it followed them from Tatooine but Old Ben reassures him that Ties are short range fighters. Which insinuates that there are long range fighters.

And as has already been pointed out, Luke jumps from Hoth to Dagobah and then from Dagobah to Bespin all in the Empire Strikes Back.

I’m still trying to get my hands on an Oculus Quest. They’re sellling them as fast as they’re making them.
