What could they possibly do to him? Force him to watch the Holiday Special? 😉

😃

I’m surprised no-one has done a Fan Edit of the Holiday Special - adding in such loved characters from The Prequel Trilogy like JarJar, Dexter, Grievous, Anakin etc, and include some sabre-twirling & high ground…

(though that could be a punishment too far 😉)

‘Star Wars: Mark Hamill Talks About Getting In Trouble For Revealing ‘The Last Jedi’ Trailer’… (the date of it’s screening)

http://comicbook.com/starwars/amp/2017/12/05/star-wars-the-last-jedi-trailer-mark-hamill-in-trouble/

(not really ‘in trouble’ either…)

Really looking forward to seeing this v2 - and will seed the 8gb version for as long as I can.
 

Although obviously not seen this just yet - I’d just like to say a massive ‘thank you’ to all involved - you can certainly see all the hard work, time, energy and the many decisions that have gone into this - just from this thread alone - nice one 😃)

There were thirteen posts here just yesterday!
But all the recent posts are "Just saw some spoilers, but I won’t share em here!"
It’s weird. I have no other source for this kinda thing and this is a handy place to read about it. But now it’s “Oh I don’t wanna drop this massive spoiler in the SPOILER THREAD.”

Some of them may have leaks rather than spoilers - leaks which included the actual plot and events from the film not officially released as yet.

A place to read up on the recent various online leaks mate (WARNING - these are LEAKS from the film itself - including the PLOT of TLJ), is https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsLeaks/

and also various people’s twitter, facebook, imgur and other social media feeds etc - some people are posting stuff and intentionally ruining/spoiling the plot and events from TLJ - for everyone.
 

I suppose near-on everyone has a different level to what is acceptable for them as a ‘spoiler’ or a ‘leak’ - some will run out of the room if they see a tv advert, some won’t walk down the aisle of a shop with TLJ toys in that aisle, others will be ok with everything out there officially released up to the point of seeing the film itself, and others will be ok with the recent leaked online content (& TLJ plot) and anything else still to leak.

Cool find .Val - and that’s a quality informative video too 😃

Stumbled across this poster by artist Marie Bergeron. Love this style.

Very cool that - nice one 😃

Already posted in the Random Star Wars pics & gifs thread - but likely well worth a post in here too…

some more similar Star Wars art here from the same artist (Raymond Swanland) - https://imgur.com/gallery/HZOh0

That’s one hell of a fanart!

Aye, that Raymond Swanland knows his stuff 😃

If I were younger (and the missus would let me 😉) that’d be up on the wall somewhere!

His Obi-Wan is pretty cool too…

I reckon this and the earlier one belong in the awesome art thread! 😃

.Val

You’re probably very much correct on that mate 😃

a couple of decent logos… (from https://mrushing02.deviantart.com/)

Especially like the twin suns in the Kenobi title - a nice touch there…

and a fair few more similar pics here:-

(well in to whythelongplayface on imgur for compiling that)

As well as the TLJ Visual Dictionary and TLJ Soundtrack Titles leaking online in the past day or two…

There are now more leaks online - this time from some TLJ childrens’ books that were accidentally sold to the public well before the official sale date - these books do contain photographs from film scenes and text explaining them - as well as the plot of TLJ itself.

Be careful other there if you’re trying to stay clear of spoilers etc…

“That’s part of our policy, is not to be taken seriously, because I think our opposition, whoever they may be, in all their manifest forms, don’t know how to handle humor. You know, and we are humorous, we are, what are they, Laurel and Hardy. That’s John and Yoko, and we stand a better chance under that guise, because all the serious people, like Martin Luther King, and Kennedy, and Gandhi, got shot.” -John Lennon

Murdered this day, back in 1980.

Reported mate - a few of us are still reporting them (I hope 😃)

Also, I will leave the link up for now, and if a mod asks me to remove it I’ll edit the post and start using PMs instead.

Your link has been removed.

If respected and long-time members of the community here are letting you know you may well be breaking fan edit / preservation rules then have a think, re-read those rules - take the link down - and if still in doubt then ask a moderator.

‘Oh, I don’t know. Is it that we collectively thought Steve Jobs was a great man, even when we knew he made billions off the backs of children? Or maybe it’s that it feels like all our heroes are counterfeit? The world itself’s just one big hoax. Spamming each other with our running commentary of bullshit, masquerading as insight, our social media faking as intimacy. Or is it that we voted for this? Not with our rigged elections, but with our things, our property, our money. I’m not saying anything new. We all know why we do this, not because Hunger Games books makes us happy, but because we wanna be sedated. Because it’s painful not to pretend, because we’re cowards. Fuck society’.

There are a few other quotes on-point too…

‘Give a man a gun he’ll rob a bank. Give a man a bank and he’ll rob the world’.

I’ll end on one with a brighter outlook:-

‘You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream’ - C.S. Lewis (I think).

Edit - forgot this poignant one too…

‘Oh Well! Who wants to live forever? Dive!!!’ - Vultan

I’m planning to buy this jacket (insert ink here) as a Christmas gift for my girlfriend. Any suggestion…??

Are you taking her back to 1976 to see the MidAmeriCon too? 😉
 

Welcome to the site - please take the time to look around - and find some topics of interest - I think there are a couple of Star Wars merchandise thread around somewhere too.

Though, unfortunately I’m not too sure about some members’ fashion sense on here… 😉

‘Coventry named UK City of Culture 2021’ - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-42272675

I feel a series of The Specials concerts in and around Coventry coming on around 2021 😃

Likely Selector, The Enemy, Primitives, & Dweeb too (amongst others)…

(could’ve gone in the pics thread - yet likely more suited in here)

Goes home, nueralizes himself.

I see what you did there. Since it never actually turned on, you haven’t forgotten anything. We’re on to you.

Damn. Erm… it did a firmware update half way through. That’s the excuse and I’m sticking to it!

I’m okay - though my goldfish says his memory is now fantastic 😉 What he has seen… cannot be unseen…

(well, until the firmware update on this damn neuralizer finishes anyway 😃)

Back on topic…

Pesky Russians - I’d like to bitch that the friendliness on show last night at the footy between Liverpool vs Spartak Moscow fans just wasn’t on. When I go meet Russians I want to see cold, stoic authoritive types, in their cool hats with the floppy ears - not all this singing with each other, handshakes and laughter.

It’s just not cricket…

Which is a subject I’ll be avoiding as the cricket currently on display be England is truly worthy of a bitching-fest.
