Perhaps the worst aspect of the Holiday Special is that props from Star Wars (1977) were mutilated for the production of Holiday Special.
A friend actually said to me, “I saw the one where Luke became Darth Vader.”
This by far. The “Shaw was NEVER Anakin” revisionism really gets on my nerves. Hayden takes me out of what’s supposed to be the happy ending of everything.
Starkiller. Sun Crusher is way too overpowered.
That there’s other squadrons and even capital ships participating in the Battle of Yavin.
I wonder if any of the Imperial officers from the Tantive scenes will appear. I’d love to see the officer who says “Hold your fire” and the officer who says, “Holding her is dangerous.”

There must have been so many innocent/rebel prisoners aboard the Death Star that died in the aftermath.
We don’t know that. It’s possible that all the cells were empty except for Leia’s or that the other cells held Stormtroopers who showed up to work drunk.
The caped Imperial looks to be an Imperial Security Bureau officer (white shirt, black pants). I’d love a guide to Imperial officer uniforms.
Victim-blaming is absolutely unacceptable. It’s not your fault if your spouse or parent spanks you.
Mon Mothma!!!
For a reveal that the Jedi Order was founded to defeat Snoke, but Snoke corrupted one of the Jedi, and this corrupted Jedi then founded the Sith. Now that the Sith have been wiped out, Snoke has taken things back into his own hands.
Non-issues come in multiple directions?
There’s also the possibility that Rey was really angry and pissed off at Ren by that point, and was dipping her toe in the Dark Side, much like Luke did when he beat Vader in ROTJ. All the more reason she needs Luke to teach her now.
I like the idea of Rey becoming a master of Vaapad like Mace Windu.
The Clone army didn’t turn on the Republic, they wiped out those traitorous Jedi and the Republic was reordered into the Empire. 😉
Kylo had a bleeding wound from being shot by Chewie, so that evened the odds a tad.
Turning on the guardians of peace and justice for a thousand generations and ushering in an autocratic dictatorship
Both of these actions received “thunderous applause” from the Republic.
When I was 13-16 years old, my mom forbade me from talking to girls. She said that all teenage girls are hell-bent on ruining my life and that she was protecting me from the pain of not being liked by others. When I was 16, I almost commited suicide because this rule was so painful.
Interesting! I know some people who constantly complain about their Comcast service.
If there’s one thing that Reddit hates more than those who oppose Bernie Sanders, it’s Comcast.
If only that was an option with my crappy cable company. If the new company taking over the phone services out here offers me a better deal, I may cut the cord. 😉
Please cut the cord. Cable companies won’t be missed.
I just looked up the terms. Windowboxing is when an already letterboxed image gets pillarboxed. An example we should all be familiar with is the GOUT.
I knew this. That’s why I said it’s something different.
I was just clarifying for everyone else. I didn’t want there to be any confusion.
Movies and TV shows shot in 4:3 but shown letterboxed.
I don’t understand how you can letterbox something that is either the same ratio as the screen or taller, unless you are windowboxing, which is different.
…unless you mean letterbox on the sides rather than the top and bottom.
This is usually called pillarbox, so saying letterbox and meaning pillarbox is misleading.

When I said “I have compassion for others,” it sounded like “compassion for those who are unable to aquire cigarettes,” but what I meant was, “compassion for those who get in trouble with the law because they smoke under a certain age.” How would you feel if you got in trouble with the law for being a smoker?
I can’t believe there are TV stations which
A. still show panned-and-scanned cuts of movies
and
B. letterbox movies & TV shows shot in 4:3
The latter is particularily pointless and stupid.
I don’t understand it either, Duracell. I don’t remember when the last I watched anything panned-and-scanned was. I find the fact that part of the picture is missing to be way more distracting than black bars on the screen. And I have no clue why they would letterbox something shot in 4:3 unless you mean letterbox on the sides rather than the top and bottom.
I wish they had kept the Isaacs Inquisitor alive and made him the only Inquisitor. It would have been awesome if his past as a Temple Guard affected Kanan’s interactions with him.
Something that shows life under the Empire. Surveillance, slavery, military parades, etc.
Last time I posted in this thread, I was half-insane from lack of human contact. Sorry about that.
I hate it when people use “dog ears”! Why do you people have to fold the corner?! Why can’t you use a bookmark?!
This is among one of my deepest pet-peeves…for it speaks not only to the laziness of the reader, but also to their carelessness towards undamaged property…how difficult is it truly to find even a small piece of paper to mark one’s place?
If the person folding the page isn’t the owner of the book, agreed.

If an adult wants to kill him or herself with a vice like cigarettes, that’s not my business. It’s my business when they are puffing in my face, and since smoking has generally been outlawed in most places I would have to worry about it, I’m fine with the way things are right now.
This is what I’ve been trying to say. You’re an adult at 18 and you go off to Syria at 18.
