I went with the name Anakin instead of Ender (my usual name) to avoid confusion with Darth Ender, but have come to regret my decision. It won’t let me make a new account with the same email, so is there a way to change my username? Otherwise, I’ll have to change my email on this account to free up my real one for a new account.

PM sent.

Does he seriously think anybody in PR can read his tweets right now?
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/914216744385904640

I’m not too sure based on his words and actions so far… that he gives a lot of thought on what is actually happening in Puerto Rico - and his tweets were likely made in between concentrating on holes on the golf course (again).
 

Kodi Gaddis ((https://twitter.com/KodiGaddis)) sums things up pretty well in his tweet replies to Trump…

‘They are not believing the fake news since they don’t have power.’
‘You’d know that if you went to help them.’
‘They are seeing people that NEED water.’
‘That NEED food.’
‘That NEED medical.’
‘That are begging for help.’
‘That don’t want to die.’
‘And you are sitting here tweeting about the “media?”’
‘Get over yourself, man’

‘Kilian Eng’ is well worth an image search for his work - there are a few riffs on that picture above - as well as some for Star Wars, and a few other sci-fi films too 😃

On a different note…

Came across this site and really liked the art too - some of the first designs for the ships in Star Wars, by Colin Cantwell:-

http://cantwellstore.com/product/autographed-prints/

That looks superb - and for me has a quality akin to something officially licenced (or even better than that).

Really nicely done - the price is a little high for me - though you can see the design process, time, love and effort (and likely a bit of blood and sweat too?) that has gone into this.

ps - Welcome to the site - I hope you stick around and enjoy what is on offer here.

MtFBWY too 😃

Only a medical professional can make that determination. Laypeople are not qualified for that.

You may find some laypeople will be making a determination on the status of his mental health when voting comes around again…

art of a somewhat different nature here - though still awesome…

Morning thoughts.

The Mayor of San Juan, who was very complimentary only a few days ago, has now been told by the Democrats that you must be nasty to Trump.

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/914089003745468417

…Such poor leadership ability by the Mayor of San Juan, and others in Puerto Rico, who are not able to get their workers to help. They…

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/914089888596754434

…want everything to be done for them when it should be a community effort. 10,000 Federal workers now on Island doing a fantastic job.

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/914094625488502784

Fake News CNN and NBC are going out of their way to disparage our great First Responders as a way to “get Trump.” Not fair to FR or effort!

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/914099295963553792

The Fake News Networks are working overtime in Puerto Rico doing their best to take the spirit away from our soldiers and first R’s. Shame!

Trump still manages to sink to further level not thought previously possible.

And also manages to try and deflect criticism of his inactions so far… (as many of his tweets and speeches seemingly do)

Like I said, Ewok dress. But all those scenes were shot on the set at Elstree.

Thanks for finding a bigger version.

I must pay more attention to what women are wearing - though perhaps not in the company of my partner - who just sighed, and walked off after noticing I was searching for Leia photos (‘again’)…

Tell them it’s work related? 😉

I tried that with pornhub - it didn’t work (and that was actually work - kind of…)

Spaced is one of my favorite series of all time! 😄

😄

I know there were meant to be 3 seasons in total - and they get asked still if they’d still do the third season (really unlikely given they’d all gone on to 'bigger things etc - though it’d be great to have a 1-hour one-off special, 20 years on, just to catch up with them all again!

Hullo Bwian 😃

Don’t think I’ve ever seen this shot before. Wish I could find a bigger version.

We never saw Leia in her Ewok dress on location in the finished film. So is this just a publicity shot or hints of unused footage?

Quite a rare pic that, mate. I think it’s the clothes she may have been wearing where she finds Luke and Han being bought into the Ewok village tied up and being prepped ready for a BBQ? (I must give ROTJ another watch soon 😃)

Though could also be from some publicity shots too…

Anyway, “apologists” is intrinsically incorrect term to describe the particular group of people. They do no apologise for the fact that TFA is shit. They just deny it. To be able to apologise for something, one must first admit it.

If you are here to bait or antangonise fellow forum members for having an a different opinion of a movie than yourself - an opinion on which you repeatedly try to declare as some sort of fact - then I suggest you, and anyone of the same mindset, stop.

Having a differing opinion, explaining why, talking about it, and exchanging views is great and to be encouraged - what you seem to repeatedly be doing here is far-removed from this.

You’re much better than that - please start posting like it.

We should all get back on the topic of this thread.

Ewok Apologetics

A good name for a band that - or something that you’d need some antibiotics for 😉

James Whale
George Romero
Coen brothers
Ed Wood
Quentin Tarantino
Edgar Wright
John Waters
Alfred Hitchcock

I find Edgar Wright a quality and interesting director - so much that I’d go watch a movie or tv series of his even if I didn’t particularity like/interested by the genre, plot, actors, etc.

If you haven’t already watch Spaced (1999 UK comedy on Channel 4) I suggest you give it a go mate - some really nice homages in there and references to a lot films he, Simon Pegg & Jessica Stevenson enjoyed or were influenced by, plus it was pretty funny it it’s own right too 😃

Think it was free on netflix not so long ago - though it goes for pennies on dvd at ebay etc…

2020 isn’t going to make any difference. Kathleen Kennedy has already said the OOT is never coming.

Have you a reliable source for that? (other than the video which was edited that did not give anywhere like the full story when the fan asked her a question she didn’t quite grasp / misunderstood)

But that doesn’t stop a mix of eternal optimists and Disney apologists from moving the goalpost every chance they get.

Right on cue.

Anything you’d like to tell us, or explain further?

Hi RUN_LUKE_RUN,

Could you please post a little more information or detail in your first post if and when you start a new thread like this one, please?

It may help give us members on here a little more idea on what they are clicking onto - and may also in return be more likely/able to help you too.

Thanks mate 😃

there was a typical spam bot. its post has since been replaced by some wise crackery by oojason (i assume). then lots of users started to treat this thread like it was created yesterday.

Doh! Rumbled - I hold my hands up.

If that’s what happened, it was very confusing. It doesn’t help that the forum software doesn’t mark who made the edit.

I apologise for the confusion Frink - just a little fooling around by myself.

The post has now been deleted - and hopefully we’ll see less spambots around here too.

I voted for the spambot
