Re: How will the story progress in EP 8 and 9?

Gawd damnit Ray... I'm not sure if I am fully invested in the character arc for Rey, considering how skilled she is with the force. You mean like how Luke learned to use a lightsaber to block blaster bolts on his first attempt or used the Force to blow up the Death Star? Nor am I really that investe...

Re: Harrison Ford and Star Wars

According to old interviews, he was expecting his character to be killed off in ROTJ, but Lucas re-wrote the story to make it so Han and Leia get together and that Luke and Leia are siblings. He wanted a better send off. The new story allowed him to finally get the death for Han Solo he wanted. Now...

Re: Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens

tbh ANH was rather small too and the universe didn't really open until ESB, ROTJ and the old EU. Did the universe really open all that much in the original trilogy? I'm seeing a lot of criticism in the spoiler thread calling out a lack of world building and exposition. But Star Wars never really di...

Re: The New SW Canon

Th problem really is that Lucas never went back and said "OK, let's sit down and watch the OT and see what I wrote and what was said.". There were some very easy fixes for what he had already established to not be contradicted.

Re: Ep7 Reviews (Spoilers)

I have to say, after seeing it again, the things that bothered me, don't much anymore. The whole rehashing A New Hope... well it really doesn't. It takes some cues and certainly has some homages, but it's far different enough that I feel you have to really nitpick and be overly critical to get there...

Re: Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens

Anyone that ranks this movie higher than ANH or TESB is quite frankly a moron and knows nothing about movies. It is at best, on par with ROTJ.

Re: Ep7 Reviews (Spoilers)

Can I have some confirmation/denial on one point? Throughout the film, there is no real evidence (from my point of view) that Finn has force powers, and he seems to have all the grace with the lightsaber as a gundark ice skating. He, naturally, is more at home with blasters. The only reason Kylo no...

Re: Harrison Ford and Star Wars

I think he resented it when people kept asking him about it in the 80s, but then his star really took off and then he appreciated it for what it did for him.

It's only down to pure luck on the ground team's part that he didn't win. More like gross incompetence.

It most certainly is said.

The Redemption of Jar Jar Binks

Now that there are new movies coming out on a consistent basis, will there be a place for Jar Jar and is there a director with enough balls to do it? Personally, I like Jar Jar and think he got shafted by the same idiots that love Boba "I got killed by a blind guy with a stick" Fett, and h...

Re: Did Palpatine talk to Anakin in his head?

My take has always been that the actual words are for the viewer and the message conveyed has been one of feeling and presence. EX: We hear "Use the Force Luke, let go." while Luke feels a wave of righteousness and more understands what to do than is actually told. However, the way Luke ta...

Re: Glad I waited for the reviews on Aftermath

My thought on this has always been, why wouldn't the Empire just revert to the Republic? It was only 6-7 years from the time the Emperor shut down the Senate and only 30+ years since the Emperor started the first Galactic Empire. Aside from those Senators that died in the rebellion, it's not like pl...

Re: Expelled from the Jedi Order

Necros are fine if you add something new to the discussion, which he did.

I've actually caught a few episodes of Rebels and I don't entirely hate it. I don't think that having all these force sensitives and such is a good idea and I feel like it's going to get them stuck in a corner.
