Awww crap, I thought for sure it was from the reboot.

Reboot had nothing so gleefully self-parodic…or so clever in any way.

The Reboot’s prologue is pretty good, like a Best of Jason. The rest is bleh.

I saw the reboot in the Theaters. It was not bad, but not as good as the original.

Not from the reboot. That one’s from Jason X aka Jason on a Spaceship.

Nah, that’s not from X. I forget which one it’s from. He does that in X too, but that gif is from… 7?

I feel like you’re right.

I just read something on the Wordpress page about Vader retaining his red lenses. I was actually wondering about that especially after seeing them on Vader’s helmet still intact on Rebels. Nice to hear that you’re going back to them, Ady. Your explanation makes perfect sense. 😃

Now another thing I’m wondering is the Rebel Hangar on Yavin IV. After watching fighters flying out of the Hangar on Rogue One, what’s the possibilities of seeing something similar happening on ANHR:SE? Mind you, though, the scene looks fine as it currently is anyhow.

I’m sure Ady would love to build a model of the Massassi Temple. Part of that is sarcasm, most of it is fear that he will. 😉

I’ll admit I was wrong, it was his daughter that had the clothes line, but it was his wife who won a lawsuit because she can’t bank on her brand as well as she’d like.

Libel is a legal matter that could cost any business millions of dollars, not just Mrs. Trump. Get a clue.

Libel is bad, yes, but she’s not a business. She’s a potential business because of her position as the First Lady. And isn’t badmouthing a corporation a form of libel? Sure, Nordstrom’s stock went up, but they can probably sue for the tweet.

Libel is libel, no matter what, learn your law. It also reads like he was taking a pot shot at himself, not Nordstrom, so I doubt it.

She’s the First Lady saying that she can’t exploit her new position for profit because of an article most of us have forgotten about. She rightly won the case, I agree, but it has to make you a little uneasy that she has no interest in this other than profit.

I’m a few hours into Wind Waker HD now. So far, it’s great. I can see why people complained about the slow sailing on the GC version, but the new Swift Sail takes care of that and it’s available pretty early on.

Skyward Sword is my favorite game of all time!

doubleofive said:

CLARIFICATION: is a Wii port? Then it probably sucks.

I prefer the Wii version of Twilight Princess to the the GC. Is that considered a port?

This is a good question. I never played the Wii version, but from what I understand, it’s a mirror of the GC version, making Link right handed like most of their players. Since it was developed in parallel, I’m going to say it doesn’t count as a port, and it’s first party anyway.

FURTHER CLARIFICATION: Is it a Wii port of a third party game? Then it probably sucks.

The title font in the crawl isn’t wrong, it’s just not the font used in RotJ and the Prequels.

(I’m limiting myself to one critique, and not going to point out how impossible character replacement is.)

(oops)

Well I ended up learning something in this thread. I didn’t know those fonts differed. Are they close-but-imperfect matches? Do Jedi and the PT match one another? And they switched back to a more accurate typeface for TFA?

As you can see, TFA uses the same title font as A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back. Return of the Jedi used a different font that they used throughout the prequels. The R’s are the biggest clues.

Well, I think it’s even more funnier that Krennic traveled to another planet for who knows how many hours to have a one minute discussion with Vader, ha.

Vader doesn’t have a phone in his retreat.

I just meant that there must’ve been an easier way to deliver a one sentence message, even for Vader who has to suit up for this “meeting”. I don’t mind it, I like the scene, I just find it a little funny if you think about it but I try not to.

I, too, was kidding.

Agreed that this would be great, just as the battle droid was great. U-Wings parked in the Yavin hangar (though not flying out to combat, wrong type of mission for that) would be great too.

I like all of this. But, one could theorize that they only had two U-Wings and both went down at Scarif.

One could also theorize that all K2 droids were removed from Imperial Service immediately following review of footage from Jedha and Scarif demonstrating they can easily be reprogrammed and are thus a security risk.

I mean, one could

Or that we don’t see them in the 3 hallways we see in ANH.
