Mark Hamill gets his star on Walk of Fame: http://variety.com/2018/film/news/mark-hamill-hollywood-walk-of-fame-star-1202705447/
At the same time it’s great that he’s been granted it as I really think he’s a great actor and probably even a better in person but it’s just unfortunate that he doesn’t have much more to back him up than SW films.
I think he’s got a pretty solid and respected career for his voice work too, mate?
(And as you say, seems like a great guy - which is always a plus 😃)
Warb, i think you just got worked up from the school shooting discussion in the politics thread, because an outburst like that just makes you look like a doodad 2.
JEDIT: just saw oojason’s comment.
No, I am worked up because of what happened with Darth Ender.
Well, you can take that up with _Ender.
Don’t have a pop at others for _Ender’s voluntary decision to leave the site for a while, nor tell other members to ‘go fuck yourself’ - as you’ll only get yourself into trouble for doing so.
Knock it off lads.
Eddy Amoo: The Real Thing singer dies at 73…
Sorry that I keep tweet spamming this thread but it’s not my fault nobody writes articles anymore.
Don’t apologise mate - I find the links illuminating & help give pause for thought. Thank you.
^ the link doesn’t work anymore mate (as well as a few pics on the first few pages of this great thread).
Quality work and content on your https://twitter.com/starwarsviscomp - nice one, and for the blog too, doubleofive 😃
Star wars vhs is my latest purchase, if i knew how to post a picture i would 😃
This guide may be of help on how to post images on this site mate:-

Enjoyed watching and read those (always good to get some insight on just how things are broken down / processed) - cheers 😃
thread re-opened.
If anyone has any issues with the past 5/6 pages please let a moderator know - thank you.
Anyway, knock the holier-than-thou attitude on the head.
Really? This is the post you reply to?
I’ve just got in from a couple of hours away - as stated in my reply. I haven’t caught up with the thread yet. Do you have a problem with that?
I think many on here have some, if not varying degrees of all of those flaws you posted there d_e, yourself included.
If you’re going to try and use this thread to try and goad Frink - or carry on/escalate from the ‘[fill in the blank] Just Died!’ thread - then think on mate.
Of course we all have such flaws. But there is no doubt that Frink’s character is unique to this forum, usually in a pleasant sense, periodically to an aggravating sense.
However, I am not trying to goad or escalate anything. I was trying to follow mrebo’s advice from that thread:
To be honest, I genuinely feel you’re not as enjoyable or nice as you used to be. Or maybe I’m just nicer than I used to be, leading me to sit on my high horse. 😛
I think you and Warb are just suffering faulty memory, but ok.
Im getting flashbacks of the Luke Skywalker debate. I think Frink is as delightful as ever 🐣
I think we should give the dead the respect they deserve in this thread and not get bogged down in petty internecine fights (definition provided for Dom’s benefit).
I don’t see how I am goading him. I was not rude or disrespectful. I am trying to converse in a more appropriate thread about what I feel is a problem. I am handling it in a very adult-like fashion, and frankly, I don’t need a moderator to tell me how to talk with another adult unless things get out of hand. So far, I don’t believe we’re even close to that point.
What’s more, you swooped in on my comment in the ‘[fill in the blank] Just Died!’ thread because a lack of careful phrasing made it look like a portion of my comment was a broad generalization, even though the latter part of the comment should have clarified. You quickly corrected me and stated that I shouldn’t generalize (to which I agreed) and presumably accepted my point that liberals and atheists should be respectful of religious/conservative individuals who have died. Literally, you castigated me for not using the word ‘many’ in one of two appropriate places. Meanwhile, Frink’s disrespectful comments, both before and after that, received no moderation, and they were clearly far more offensive.
Following all this, I come to this thread to carry on what I hope will be a productive conversation and where Frink might actually acknowledge that he has been ruder lately, and whom do you call out? Me. Never mind the goading that Frink gives chyron8472 routinely. Never mind the harassment that he leveled against Warbler in the NFL thread leading up to the Super Bowl, refusing for pages to acknowledge that he should back down. Never mind the instances where he decides to pick on yhwx and where it clearly is hurting his feelings. Never mind his lack of remorse on most of these occasions. No, call out darth_ender, who 95% of the time tries to be the peace maker. I really appreciate that.
I didn’t say you were goading him - I said ‘If you’re going to try and use this thread to try and goad Frink…’, yes?
As for you ‘…don’t need a moderator to tell me how to talk with another adult unless things get out of hand’ - well… given your posts to/re Frink in the ‘Just Died’ thread, coupled with your loaded post in here - so I will step in, and try to diffuse something from continuing or escalating further. (Edit - It’s gone well in this thread since I’ve been out for a couple of hours and not stepped in, hasn’t it?)
As for Frink’s comments in the ‘[fill in the blank] Just Died!’ thread - if you have an issue with them then let a mod know via PM. I took issue with your comments about ‘non-religious peeps and liberals’ as ‘they seem to celebrate the death of a prominent Christian figure’ - which was not the case at all, was it? Hence I pulled you up on it.
‘the harassment that he leveled against Warbler in the NFL thread leading up to the Super Bowl’…? you mean the posting of a pic of an ex-player every time Warbler posted ‘Go Eagles’? Or is there something else? Did Frink not apologise and stop?
‘Never mind the goading that Frink gives chyron8472 routinely’ - that seems to be two-way thing, no? And since chyron’s return to the site it seems that chyron is giving Frink barrels over Frink’s posts.
‘Never mind the instances where he decides to pick on yhwx and where it clearly is hurting his feelings’ - I am not aware of this. yhwx - please let a mod know if you have any issues with what d_e is alluding to.
If anyone here has an issue with posts made by certain members they can let a mod know - as they have always been able to do. Or maybe you don’t want a mod trying to diffuse a situation with you & Frink (you having a pop at him) - but do want mods to get involved when Frink has a pop (according to you) at others? It certainly seems that way…
Anyway, knock the holier-than-thou attitude on the head.
No, as I have expressed repeatedly, I don’t want mods jumping in. But if you do feel this need to correct us like children, I’d prefer you correct all of us equally.
And like I’ve just explained to you - I haven’t jumped in - just trying to stop things escalating - continuing. Nicely ignored that and the rest though.
As for ‘correcting you like children’ - no, but that you refer to yourself as a child for no reason… maybe you think you are acting like one. Personally, I’d say children generally behave better than you seem to think.

I wonder if Trump (or those advocating putting more guns into schools) gave any thought to these type of questions or scenarios before opening his mouth.
Sadly, I think we know the answer to that mate.
JJ Abrams says they now have a script for Episode IX - and it starts shooting end of July…

It’s quite a strange decision not to have him working on them - or involved at all…

I am old enough to remember the pain and anguish of mis-dialing a phone number on a rotary phone.
The struggle was real my friend, the struggle was real…
😃
Sweet work mate - very nicely done 😃
Hope we see more of your work in here…
😃
very good mate!
You guys can’t even read how am I supposed to fight? It’s the green robot madness all over again.
I said: I felt like Daisy’s performance was weak compared to her performance in other movies.
Yeah, this site gets pretty confusing where people state a perfectly reasonable opinion and all you get as a response is “what?”.
Reasonable?
Whether you agree or not, saying that you feel an actor turned in a weaker performance is a perfectly reasonable opinion, yes.
You sure?
You ok my friend?
Seems in character to me, that being a self admitted snide and rudely sarcastic poster by nature.
At least you got that I was joking, even though for some reason you felt like you had to be a dick about it (though I guess that’s in character for you).
How does pointing out that you’re being a dick through your self admitted snide and sarcastic posting nature make me a dick?

Just because I’m sarcastic doesn’t make me a dick. And yet whenever I make a sarcastic comment you pop up to attack me and call me rude and snide.
(I would report you again for harassment but apparently the mods are getting lazy and don’t care to do anything about the fact that you consistently have it out for me with seemingly no reason beyond I have a different opinion on a movie than you)
Pack it in lads.
If either of you have any concerns or issues you can always PM me or another mod.
Update: I found my official discs and can prove that I am, in fact, not a pirate.
You could still have a peg-leg - and a parrot on your shoulder - especially given that strategically placed dvd in front of that shoulder…
I call pirate!
