I won't spoiler this because it's personal speculation. There is only one way for us to get "emotionally invested" in 8 and 9. Luke/Han/Leia has to die by the hands of bad guys. Not all of hem per se, but guarantee 1-2 of them get chopped down. It's writing fail if that doesn't happen.
I don't think many of the PFA elite here have kids (probably a good thing) but if you do the toys are starting to fly off the shelf.

Holy fucking shit. I'm starting my rewatch of 1-6 tonight and I just finished with the phantom menace. I remembered it being bad. It's fucking hideously awful. Its worse than I remembered.
Double fuck. I remembered a huge fail on my part from 10 years ago. Attack of the clones DVD.... Full screen.
Not enjoying the run so far.

I just got Star Wars Battlefront for PS4 today. It's a pretty cool game.

Can't argue with much of this. I think 6 is a little better than 2 and if 7-9 works out the way I think it will I think 6 will be much more important then it is considered now.Quote:

for you "youngins", this is Pong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pong
we were probably 4 or 5 at the time.
the struggle is real
1. Open Chrome (didn't work for me in firefox)
2. Go to Google
3. Search for: "a long time ago in a galaxy far far away"
Next go to: https://www.google.com/starwars
Pick a side.
Open that accounts Gmail, Youtube and a few other random Google apps.

You guys hear this movie is coming out later this week?
i have tickets for saturday morning at 10:30am
my brother's company bought out the theater for the showing and he got 4 tickets, so i'll be going with him and his two sons (age 10 and 7)
i'm fucking pumped (not fucking pumped having to wake up at 8am to get a seat in a sold out theater)
I'm gonna spoiler this because I put 2 and 2 together from what i've seen and my spoiler will ruin everyone's day because it's to 'Star Wars'y to be wrong:Quote:

More or less what I figured from the start, way too much money for this not to be at least decent.
Going to have to shut down the Internet until I see the movie on Thursday.
Chris Hardwick: No spoilers but #TheForceAwakens is beyond amazing. Truly. It was an emotional experience that exceeded my hopes!!!
Spoiler free tweets about the premiere are all positive. (Not a big surprise) One tweet said "easily best SW since 1983, maybe 1980."
I haven't seen it posted anywhere, but im surprised none of you have posted to conspiracy theory about Jar Jar being the Sith Master.
Wow..... Huge spoiler here.
Eric Stonestreet ✔@ericstonestreet
Well, I've seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
My prediction: #1 at the box office this week.

Best since ROJ doesn't include ROJ. That just means better than the prequels, which is saying very, very little.Quote:
Daly: Yeah you can almost hear the back peddle. It was better than TESB..... Ok it was better than ROJ
Ewoks and emasculated Vader aside, ROJ was a pretty damn good film, so to say that Force Awakens is better than it would be quite a bold statement imo
It should be noted that Chris Hardwick jizzes in his pants at the worst Walking Dead episodes.Quote:

I know nothing spoiler wise but I'm expecting the consensus to be "it's better than the Phantom Menace". Which is a pretty low bar.
Theory checks out.Quote:

I'll wait until it comes out on CBC & there's no hockey on or I don't have to wash my hair.

It's the story he will fuck up.

Just put the story of Star Wars out of your mind and enjoy it for what it now is...A mindless action/sci-fi film.
And where I have hope is Mickey Mouse didn't just turn over his $4B asset to JJ for him to do with whatever the fuck he wants with it. This script has been reviewed and signed off by the best of writers is my best guess.Quote:
