The J.J. commentary was a good listen. I only wish they had included another person, I always find it more entertaining when it’s a conversation rather than a solo-effort.*

*No need to make the Han joke unless you can come up with something really good.

Why include anyone other than J.J. since he’s the brains, sweetheart.

Well…I think there’s a pretty good argument to include Lawrence Kasdan the co-writer of The Force Awakens and writer of The Empire Strikes Back. I’d also love to hear from Kathleen Kennedy and her thoughts on bringing this all about. And then of course there’d be a lot of interest in a special commentary with Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford. Heck, a commentary from the folks at ILM would be fascinating. Point is, the buck does not stop with Abrams.

whoosh

That’s the sound of the joke of Frink asking for a Han Solo joke, getting it, and Tobar missing it.

I don’t like watching or being a part of the said thug-fest. Every time I step away, more than just one member run the gamut when it comes to who they want to kick around. I know where it started and I have tried many times to be peaceful only to be told and shown by many others here that it’s never going to happen.

How does one manage that? I am open to all reasonable solutions.

Just stop coming here. You don’t seem to be having fun or learning anything or contributing to a project, just making yourself angry. I understand that it might be addicting or you don’t want people talking about you behind your back (real or imagined), but I think it’s time to move on.

Han Solo dies!?
Time

Alright Spuffure, here’s my first democratic reach out.

I’m not sure if you’ve ever been part of a forum before, but usually one doesn’t create thread for each wild thought one has. We have so many threads already that one probably can be used for every single one of the duplicate threads you’ve created. It’s why we have threads for the new movies and a Random Thoughts thread.

If you do have an actual new topic, expect that to go off topic soon. It’s how laid back forums like ours function. We try to keep serious threads serious, but unnecessary threads will be mocked then ignored. Like this one.

This is the first time I’m testing my personal two strikes rule. You’re at (an overdue) “one”.

I just realized that the love interest in Deadpool, who is thoroughly wasted, was played by Inara from Firefly. Now I hate Deadpool even more for wasting her.

The whole movie was a waste. They could have used this opportunity to make their dick and fart jokes without playing exactly into the tropes they made fun of in the credits. Imagine if she got kidnapped, was just offscreen forever, then Deadpool blows all kinds of shit up to get to where she thinks she is, turns out she escaped almost immediately. Just that one change would give it another point in my book.

The Message ... What, if anything, did you take away from it?
Time

I honestly don’t think 234 was someone teaching us a valuable lesson. Was it a perfect representation of the exact kind of user we don’t care for? Absolutely.

Since [POLITICS] happened a couple weeks ago, I’ve been rip-roaring to stand up to bullies. After an opportunity to do so happened at work, I was fired up and took out some more rage on the aforementioned troll. The lesson I said I learned was basically a realization that I should have a limit to my kindness, or people will walk all over me.

This isn’t the dawning of a kinder, gentler 005, humbled by The Perfect Troll. This is a woke 005, who is ready to stand up for himself and others.

STAR WARS: EP V &quot;REVISITED EDITION&quot;<strong>ADYWAN</strong> - <strong>12GB 1080p MP4 VERSION AVAILABLE NOW</strong>
Time

teharri said:

When will we see an official thread for Return of the Jedi Revisited. I would be interested in seeing/hearing what Ady and others have to say about that film. I feel as though we have talked about this film forever(seven years). Jus

When it’s ready.

But seriously, it’ll be a month or so after ESBR comes out, I’m sure.

Tvs frinck js bullying and harassing me and no one is takings me serious now people are accusing me of being a sock i dont even no what that is

Last chance. If you are indeed a real person who is new to this forum and confused by how you are being treated, it would help if you put a little effort into making your posts legible and actually contributing something besides complaining about TV’s. Once you have something serious to say, maybe people will take you seriously.

I don’t recall any gags, can you point a few out?

Gags (spoilers, maybe):

Cruise jumps off of a moving car to crash into a yoga studio in an uncomfortable position as a woman with her head between her legs waddles over to assist.

Cruise jumps on the back of a jet pack policeman, who then flies into an apartment, cooking their hamburgers for them as the woman keeps yelling to get out of her apartment. This is followed immediately by cutaways to the family in the apartment above backing away from their dinner table just before the jet pack flies through it.

Cruise drops his (old) eyeballs and chases them down a hallway into a sewer grate.

I think there were a couple others, they just didn’t fit. Maybe a fan edit would help, but I don’t care enough to find/make one.
