So we are getting two stand alone trilogies?

Yes we are.

Hmmm. I wonder if the folks at Disney have ever heard the phrase: "Brand fatigue".

Han and Lando's friendship... I didn't see a friendship there but a rivalry. That certainly affected my viewing experience due to the decades since TESB of thinking of them as long-term friends that went way back. I hear ya, but think about 2 things: 1. This may not be Han and Lando's only interact...

Zapp don't forget that at the end of ANH that Han proves he has a soft spot for helping when he assists Luke in shooting the DS. Emilia sometimes made Qi'ra be a bit too much like Daenerys in attitude and she isn't the mother of dragons here. Val was under-utilised. It is an enjoyable film. That's ...

It was decent. The guy playing Han did a passable job, and Donald Glover was quite good as Lando, I thought. I liked Woody Harrelson in this movie more than I expected I would, and I liked how they handled the Kira character as well. It was cool to see that Kessel Run that Han was on about in ANH, a...

That's an interesting point of view, Zapp, when you think about it. We've had changes in Bond, Batman, Superman, Obi-Wan, and we've accepted them all for the most part. But yet it seems so much harder with Star Wars. That's a fair point, but I would argue in regards to the first three, there is suc...

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets. I know I'm a bit late on that one, but would highly recommend.

Even though TLJ was a big letdown, TFA was still very good. With that said, I think I'm still more looking forward to Episode 9 to see how it all ends. However, I have to say that the (re)-introduction of the Falcon in TFA was one of the most exciting moments in that already exciting film and a tru...

Okay...I'll see it because it's Star Wars, but I'm still not blown away. I hope that this is more impressive when I see the full movie. But again,. it's Star Wars so I'll see it but Idon't think that this film was necessary. Han's introduction in ANH was perfect as is. Unlike Rogue One which actual...

There will be trailer for it after the super bowl, according to an article I read yesterday.

Yes, as soon as the current story line became evident, the more than subtle hints that had been dropped became clear (especially in the episode before the seadon break). Yeah, that's what I thought was so cool, the fact that a few things that I brushed off as just character development things actua...

Discovery was just meh before the season break, but I gotta say, this show is officially off the chain now. Been hearing a lot of people hate these new twists, but I'm all on board. This isn't a spoiler thread, so I need to be vague, but I can't say that any of the major revelations were surprising...

Nice. Really looking forward to this one. I'm a lot more in to the spin off movies than this new trilogy. Still holding out hope for a Rouge Squadron movie or something similar that focuses on the fighter pilots. When I first heard the title Rouge One, I was really hype for it thinking it was gonna ...

Ok, so they have a couple more months than I thought. But you're probably right about the push back if they re-shoot. I did think it was weird that they had another one coming so soon. Pretty sure all the new movies have come out in December.

Reshoots? Isn't the movie scheduled to release in March?

Maybe we don't see it but a squadron are being posted to it. Maybe Han is scheduled for it, but jumps ship before he finds out the details of his "classified" assignment. I think that would be cool, cause then we can all make fan theories about what if Han had stayed with the Empire and become a DS...

Zapp the pics I've seen of the leaked Lego sets has a little DS trooper and the page I looked at has been removed. LFL only gets them deleted when they are true. Hmm. Maybe those kinds of troopers aren't explicitly limited to the DS anymore... or the Death Star is gonna be in it and continuity be d...

The Death Star?! :shock: Should be interesting to see how it fits into a Han Solo movie... Not sure, especially as Han does call the DS a moon in ANH. Considering they held Wedge out of the Battle of Scariff scene for Rogue One because he says "Whoa, look at the size of that thing!" in ANH, I doubt...

I won't be surprised if it is either a new take on X-Wing series. The old books were popular but since they are no longer canon LFL can rewrite introducing different characters and set in a different time.

I'd be for that. The aerial battle scenes were always my favorites in the OT.

Give me Chiss or give me nothing.

Haha. As sick as that would be, I will bet you $10,000 he isn't making the Thrawn Trilogy.

Anybody wanna buy some deathsticks?

You don't want to sell me deathsticks. You want to go home and rethink your life.

What do you think you're some kind of jedi or something? waving your hand all around like that.

This prospect is even more frightening considering TLJ abomination.

He made a mess out of a trilogy that already started off mediocre IMO. Maybe he will do better when he's in full control of the whole trilogy.

I wasn't saying the games were necessarily bad, I just have a problem that the only SW games coming out for the foreseeable future are online multiplayer shooters, when the universe has so much more to offer the gaming landscape. Plus, there are so many online arena shooters now, and they're all pre...

We know that he did not start the Rebel Alliance which later became a thorn in his side, that Mon Mothma and Bail Organa and others did. But did he foresee that creation of a new threat to his power, and did he allow it in order to further ensure said power? Palpatine was nothing if not an innovato...

Welcome back to the Senate! Just think about the language (I removed one expletive)... .... There is no sense of wonder and one of the main take aways of TFA and TLJ for me is that nothing in the OT ultimately mattered. What's the point of saving the galaxy when 30 years later an Ugly Random Force ...

Is anyone else actually pissed about this movie? It was garbage in my opinion. The whole movie was about the fleet running out of gas, and Admiral Purple-Hair whatsherface's plan was apparently, "let's just let everyone else get lit up and maybe we'll make it." All Luke did was act like a [expletive...
