Daisy Ridley Says She’s Done Playing Rey After STAR WARS: EPISODE IX

Daisy Ridley said:
No, no, no. I am really, really excited to do the third thing and round it out, because ultimately, what I was signing on to was three films. So in my head, it’s three films. I think it will feel like the right time to round it out.

Well I didn’t see that coming!

Kathleen Kennedy’s latest statement seems about the same as her last:

Kathleen Kennedy said:
I certainly foresee movies past nine. Whether or not we carry on the Skywalker saga… you know, George always intended nine movies, and whether we continue that or not is something we’re talking about right now. If the story warrants it, we’ll absolutely do it. If it actually inspires new ideas, then we’ll probably head in that direction. We just don’t know yet.

Avengers: Infinity War Official Trailer

Infinity War trailer drops tomorrow. In the meantime, enjoy these posters!

Having just completed a run through of the Jason franchise for the first time I found it both amusing and timely.

After all these years I didn’t think these films held any more surprises for me. Until earlier this year I discovered a new droid I had never noticed before! It can be found in the first shot of the Executor bridge as the Rebels are trying to sneak onto Endor in the shuttle Tydirium:

A closer examination of what’s left of the prop reveals that it’s a retooled torture droid given an Imperial makeover:

I believe this droid is the unacknowledged inspiration for K-2SO. As they share the same basic shape and height. In that same shot, a crewman approaches the droid and it towers over him. He’s hard to make out in stills, so I’ve outlined him:

So I was thinking, in line with the TFA bunk easter egg in ESBR. You might consider something like this?:

Just a thought!

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. | Season 5 Premiere Special Preview

I was excited before but now I’m officially hyped! Two hour premiere this Friday!

Duracell, have you ever seen Nothing But Trouble (1991)?

Man, I was ready to write off this project but they’re actually completing period authentic model effects work? Sign me up!

They were there when I saw it in theater. They must have really had their feet to the fire on that production.

I picked up the VHS season 1 set this morning. Great deal.

He can’t juggle planets, he can’t move faster than the speed of light, and Clark Kent is part of who he is, not some disguise.

This is why I prefer the early days of Superman before the power creep started.

A Message From Tom Baker

For any fans of STAR TOURS, here are the new destinations Jakku and Crait!

Bonus transmission

It was. When people would voice the opinion that they can’t ever see the Doctor as female. The standard retort was that he was never masculine to begin with.

Personally I don’t see the new costume as very feminine. I just get a very silly Mork from Ork vibe off of it. It at least has me interested in how they’re going to depict this Doctor. Though it still seems like I’ll just be sticking with Big Finish for my Doctor Who fix at this point.

Rian Johnson has confirmed The Last Jedi’s runtime is 2 hours 30 minutes. It’s officially the longest Star Wars film yet.

I think this is that kind of British humor that Americans just don’t get. (I know I don’t get it)

No, that’s just you. IT Crowd was great.

I’m also curious, is there a hero battle game mode? That’s where I logged most of my hero play time anyway. If it takes me forever to get them as an upgrade in a usual match, I could probably live with that, but if it takes me forever to just mess around with them against other heroes, that’s a big problem for me.

There is a hero battle mode but you can only play with the heroes you’ve unlocked. If you haven’t unlocked any heroes you get automatically booted out of it.

And they have fun features like this in Arcade Mode.

Would it be better if I had just emboldened it? =P

It won’t be very fun when the people who are paying for the advantages wipe the floor with you every match.

I agree, it sucks. I had been looking forward to the campaign for this game but there’s no way I’m going to support EA’s money grab.

And just what do you think is the purpose of this thread and others like it? TO RAISE AWARENESS so that others can be better informed before making a decision on whether they should buy or not.

Don’t buy this game. It will only encourage this kind of behavior. “Pay 2 Win” is a complete and utter slap in the face to the consumer. Especially for a AAA priced title.

If everyone had that mentality, we’d quickly see full priced games charging you 50 cents just to start a new game. A quarter for every respawn! 10 cents to reload! This kind of business model has NO BUSINESS outside of F2P titles.
