There are a fair few sports related threads throughout the Culture section, and a few listed in the Culture Index thread too, though thought it may be worth having a general sports thread as well…
For those events (and even sports) that likely may not warrant enough interest for their own threads - whether it be news, results, humour, inspiring, weird, controversial, or sporting gestures, sport in your community, playing it, getting fit, overcoming the odds, the sublime, or just sporting stuff you like etc.

Enjoyed watching that mate - nice one 😃
I think Amy Adams would do just fine in the role - though also remember 15-20 years ago when rumours of a remake were in the works with Drew Barrymore, I think followed by Anne Hathaway some time later, and more recently Kate Beckinsale or Rose McGowan? All would have been good - damn ‘stuck in development hell’…
Obviously Duran Duran would have to contribute to the soundtrack as well.
Jane Fonda in more than a mere cameo in it would be cool too.
Am now off to watch Barbarella again…
How’s the pay?
Garbo, man. I keep hinting to Jay that I need some incentive but all he does is send me Jason’s nudes.
My apologies - I shall adhere to up my game. I admit the last few photoshoots haven’t been my best work - and have asked Jay to employ a more selective editing process before sending out the the ‘goods’ / ‘payment’. It was cold, some of the camera angles were a little unflattering, and perhaps too much oil was used - even for a ‘Barbarella meets Caligula’ theme.
The pay is shite mate. We tried to monetize the PMs that are sent to us by uploading the content to pornhub - turns out we’re now in debt - lots and lots of debt.
Make PMs great again, people.
^ apologies if PMs have brought on any of the above symptoms in you.
You wouldn’t be having a pop or having a dig at me, would you?
No, it’s not a dig or pop at you - it’s a play on words… to lighten up the thread after you basically inferred that the mods & admin are lying to everyone and claimed we can read member PMs, then state you can’t say why you believe this to be so, and then go silent and ‘cease and desist’.
If I have something to say I’ll just say it straight to you (as I would anyone else) - not through a joke image, not behind your back, no veiled snide remarks or the like in other threads, not create issues that aren’t there - and then ‘cease and desist’… seemingly because someone is still not satisfied with answers/information given even after a 20 PM conversation as to why a thread was locked, (despite being told the matter was closed on 3 separate occasions) and then still look to continue the issue.
As you have exited from the thread, have been re-affirmed that mods and admin can’t read member PMs to which they are not invited (which has always been the case as far as I’m aware), and you state you don’t know what the thread is trying to achieve… this thread has run it’s course.
Locked.

This isn’t aimed at paja’s post above - 'tis just a decent gif in it’s own right…
On fanedit.info there is reference to a ‘Star Wars: The Galactic Edit 1 - Rise of the Rebellion’, by Mustardkraken.
I think ForceGhostRecon (a member here) was also looking for this Edit at one time - if he was successful maybe he’ll be able to help you?
Other than that I don’t know anything about it - though good look in your quest for more info / cover art for it.
So it is a Game of Thrones crossover! I knew it!
On an open field, Ned 😉
I’ll grab my coat on the way out…
I miss the old Sci-Fi channel - and a lot of cancelled shows since.
Doh!
I can’t read private topics which I am not invited to. I don’t believe the other mods can either.
^ He’s a good guy, that Mark Hammil. His twitter page is well worth a follow too (or bookmarking - for those of us not on twitter).
There’s been a couple of updates on the ‘Why We Fight - A Star Wars Story’ kickstarter film project too 😃
May wish to give early Clapton a listen too - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8lbp_JTuoI
On the jazz side it may be worth giving Candy Dulfer a go (a more modern take on jazz), youtube is your friend:-

Remember that even though the rules of that particular thread do not apply here, the rules of the forum still do. I want civility strictly enforced here.
wow , I go away for a day and come back to this . I said it several times and I will say it again , this is a place to stand up for those who have been harassed , not to debate whether or not they have been harassed . and I have repeatedly stated , as have the mods , that if you want to state your opposition , then feel free to start your own thread
in other words, a safe place.
Then I see disparaging remarks about this being a " safe space "
Because you basically wish to silence in that thread any post on the subject that you wish to disagree with. You said it yourself, we can’t even debate whether or not someone was harassment.
,I can’t see these behaviors as anything but harassment
That is nonsense and nowhere near harassment.
and it seems like some people are reinforcing the case that the issue indeed exists . If this is not toxicity , then I don’t know what is .
It is called people having a different opinion than you. Apparently you think that any post critical of the current Star Wars movies and actors, any post in opposition to how you have limited discussion in your thread, any post critical of anything said by you and other “anti toxic”(for want of better wording) is harassment/toxic. That is silly and ridiculous. I for one have had enough of it.
^ That is not civility. Thread locked.
screams in the void has stated his thread… ‘is a place to stand up for those who have been harassed’ - and so… not for posts critical of the current Star Wars movies and actors - other threads exist for that.
It appears to me that you created this thread to have a dig at another member here because you didn’t like the scope of their thread (or maybe his and/or others’ opinions too?) - despite that member encouraging others to create threads on a wider discussion re fan toxicity if they so wished (of which this thread certainly isn’t).
If you don’t like screams in the void’s thread - feel free to ignore it. If you feel you’d like to create a thread with a wider discussion on fan toxicity… go ahead - though please leave digs at other members, and their threads, out of it. Thank you.
Hi and welcome to the site, Formicula 😃
You may find some more discussion re Leia and Tarkin in some of the ‘Rogue One’ threads in the ‘Index’ thread, here - link
and a range of Rogue One fan edits that may be of interest - in the ‘Star Wars Fan Edits and Other Projects’ section of the site, here - link, and an Index thread for that section of the site, here - link
Please have a look around the site - and hopefully you’ll find other Star Wars content of interest, too. 👍
For a little more on the site itself there are the ‘About’ and ‘Help’ sections.
BTW, great call on Hayley McFarland - thought she was very good in Lie To Me, and also in Sons Of Anarchy.
