List Of Common Foods Possessed Hasn’t Had, Including but not Limited To:
Jello, pudding, yoghurt, any kind of cake other than birthday, any kind of ice cream but plain chocolate or vanilla, sugar cookies, any cookies besides chocolate chip actually, pears, any kind of pie besides pizza, any kind of egg besides scrambled, cottage cheese, almost any fish, most candy bars, waffles, French toast, any kind of milkshake besides chocolate, smoothies, omelettes, and many more similar things that I can’t think of.

That’s interesting. I’ve never thought of that before.

Man, I just made one hell of a sandwich for lunch.

That’s badass man, I’m gonna need more details.

Had a nice sub roll, put some dijon on one side, then a layer of lacy swiss, then a layer of salami, then a layer of honey ham, then salt and pepper, then another layer of cheese, then spinkled some red wine vinegar on the other half of the roll.

I thought about toasting it too, but didn’t feel like firing up the oven. It was really nice.

We already had that and it was so glorious, any future Mini Death Star would just be a pale rehash.

To be fair the first Death Star at this point is a mini Death Star.

JEDIT: I’m dumb.

WRONG MINI DEATH STAR!!!

I personally liked that they actually added something new (sort of). I feel like one of the many things the PT did wrong was not adding any new abilities. Freaking out about Kylo stopping a laser blast is to me like freaking out over Palpatine using Force lightning because it wasn’t in ANH.
When the Force is treated as a fixed set of super-powers it looses it’s sense of magic. You should keep wondering what else it might be capable of.

For the most part, I agree. When he did it, my first reaction was “whoa, crazy” not “ugh, stupid” so it seemed decent to me. Plus it sets up the later scene where he fails to stop another bolt.

Most of us liked TFA, some of us didn’t.

It was great when people used to have artistic license which made their stuff unique and interesting. Now every little detail is controlled and people get angry if R2’s panels don’t match. Ugh.

I know what you mean.
Current SW comics’ fixation with getting every detail screen-accurate is one of the many things that makes me uninterested in them. The old comics had hit or miss stories as well, but they spent more time trying to craft interesting stories, than they spent on making sure that every detail on Han’s DL-44 blaster was exactly as it was in the movies.

It may bug a lot of current SW fans, but I find a certain charm in these old Marvel comics where Luke’s lightsaber colour changes every other issue. They’re fun stories, and I get that it’s a lightsaber, so why would it matter if it’s blue, or yellow, or red?

And sometimes they did it blatantly on purpose. Imagine how dull Dark Empire would have been if they were forced to make everything scree-accurate.

I agree with all of the above.

I find this interesting because it severely bothers me when comic artists miss or mess up obvious details.

But I also hate it just as much when they basically trace stills or promo photos for the art.
