One of my older brothers told me that someone he was talking to said something to the effect of “George Lucas already has the scripts for episodes 7 8 and 9 written.” This was back in like, 2007.
I was told the same thing back in 1999 or so.
An older family member of mine was told that 12 parts were written back in 1980.

Padme’s main action was to wear makeup and clothes (she shoots a bit in two sequences in two movies and kicks a spidercat in the nuts).
Leia is arguably the only reasonably explored female character in the series (even more than the Mos Eisley pea-strainer or the little old lady that doesn’'t sell much in Mos Espa).
Padme happened to wear makeup and clothes, but her character revolved around being a politician. Either way, seeing as how every character in the PT was quite terrible it seems like a redundant conversation.

As for the profanity that’s just part of who I am and I won’t apologize for it. Especially when someone is defending something I deem morally reprehensible. So fucking sue me.
As Warbler would put it: “*sigh*”
With some of the “experts” here, I think I prefer normal people.
You said it brother…

This kind of commentary belongs on Youtube. This is what makes General Star Wars Discussion not even worth clicking on.Other than the Lucas’ nutsack thing I strongly disagree. We all know what that accent sounds like so for him to be willfully ignorant, play coy and to ask for an example of something he already knows about is redundant and you know it. Shit like that is actually what goes on in sites like 4chan.
I’m surprised you of all people would defend that.
I’m not interested in the TPM argument, I’m referring to the constant profanity and the insults.
The back of the TPM VHS case said that Senator Palpatine was the Emperor.

hiding in the shade of Lucas’ nutsack.Me posting that is like me debating with a fundamentalist Christian who doesn’t believe in evolution and posting Homo Habilis or something to only meet a response of “you’re not making an argument”
Lord Haseo said:
I already did. You’re just being willfully ignorant.
Lord Haseo said:
I shouldn’t fucking have to
how racist this shit is

Was it really necessary to have me post examples of shit you already know about?

Do they still use slides?
I lived in Japan for ten years (and I’m visiting there right now), and yeah…those Numoidians (did I spell that right?) have quite the Japanese accent. Plus they’re kinda fishy, and they are total bureaucrats, which is what Japanese culture thrives on.
Don’t even waste your time…
What is that supposed to mean?
George Lucas is not racist. His admiration for the Tuskegee airmen should make that clear.
If Ahmed Best doesn’t think that Jar Jar is an evil racist caricature than neither should anyone else.
Well there is the obvious IKnowWhatYouDidLastSummer account, which is the third or fourth incarnation of Ghimli. There are a couple who I have suspicions about but I shouldn’t throw anyone under the bus based on a suspicion.
EDIT: Frink beat me to it one that one!
Is there a threat of radical Team_Negative1 terrorism?

Ahmed Best puts this Jar Jar racism nonsense to rest in this interview.

(We also have someone who’s made a very disturbing post on social media recently who thinks we have done TN1 a terrible wrong. About as close to making a personal threat as you can get away with.)
I hadn’t heard about this before.
George is so out of touch I doubt he is aware of any of this.
You’re right, and there are at least two sock accounts as well. After reading through some threads today it almost makes me wish this was an invite only site.
The entire General Star Wars Discussion forum is worth bitching about at this point. I hardly even click on it anymore.
I always enjoyed scratching them just to startle everybody.
Elan Sleazebagano wasn’t a name exaggerated for comedic effect?
Are chalk boards now a thing of the past?
I picked up TFA on blu-Rey. It’s better than I remembered.
That’s the one thing that keeps you from liking Robocop 2 better than the original?
Why would I dedicate space in my brain to Mask of the Phantasm? A movie I will never see, ever.
Well, if you have any interest in Batman at all (and I would assume so considering you’re viewing and posting in this thread), I wouldn’t recommend never seeing it ever, as it is pretty good (and much better than the large majority of live action Batman films).
I don’t doubt it’s quality, but realistically I will never make time to watch it; even if I did plan on watching it, I would forget.
