Happy New Year Mags and all the Galactic Senators.

Master Shrive I bought a years sub and I found out about the appearance of the characters via social media before I saw the eps. I accept this as part of life. Too many tv shows encourage viewers to tweet during shows (use the hashtag ...) so people tweet about all shows now. Even UPFs now only wait...

Wishing all senators a very happy Christmas. Merry Force be with you.

It is Christmas morning here in Oz.

No time period announced yet.

While no longer canon, i hope they lift some of the characters from The X-Wing series written by Michael Stackpole and Aaron Allston.

Kenobi is currently shooting and Disney announced that Hayden will reprise Darth in the series.

I presume that this means that Obi wan will travel away from Tatooine so Luke isn't discover. I wonder if he helps Ashoka as there appears to be a lot of crossovers now.

Lando to get a new limited series so no movie. No announcement of timeline so unsure if Donald Glover or Billy Dee Williams. I presume it will be Donald due to Billy's age. It might be a mixture with Billy recalling memories (at the start) and Donald acting out those memories (majority of the episod...

We have lost the man with a big heart in the suit David Prowse. His movements gave Darth Vader his presence. Met him once and he was a lovely man. RIP David.

That first ep was very interesting.So many references to previous films who film on that planet.

The trailer for season 2 has been released on the OS. There isn't a lot to it. Strangely the Mandalorian isn't looking for the Child race to reunited him with but instead he is searching for the Jedi. Does this mean that in a future season he will meet Luke Skywalker? Considering it is set 9ABY then...

The OS has started posting a list of the new Jedi Masters and Knights for the series and also a story showing a younger Yoda. https://www.starwars.com/news/inside-star-wars-the-high-republic-meet-the-jedi-knights-and-masters https://www.starwars.com/news/inside-star-wars-the-high-republic-meet-the-j...

Season two starts streaming on 30 Oct.

It makes sense to make another animated series while the restrictions of COVID19 are in place. It is a show that can be work on in isolation. Disney need new material to keep people subscribing and delays to live action causes a need to think of other avenues. My concern is them using the same timel...

Years ago George said that where Yoda was from would always remain a mystery. It appears that Disney is using the fans desire to make money out of it. Be careful what you wish for as it may lead to disappointment.

That's why Luke spent so long hiding out at Ahch-To so he didn't have to pay back the lost of his X-Wing :laugh: :laugh: Luke would have had to debrief after Bespin. I'm sure that Leia would confirm that as Luke was injured he was unable to retrieve his ship from an Imperial occupied Bespin. She was...

I presume Mandalorian will give The Child a name this season and then we find out it's real name in the final season. They won't get to the planet until near the last episode ever so definitely not this season.

The Child has a name. Sam Hargrave who is a 2nd unit director on the show has confirmed he knows the name. Speculation is around whether it will be revealed in Season 2. I wonder if it is a name given to him or his name at birth. https://collider.com/the-mandalorian-season-2-action-sam-hargrave-inte...

Taika is going to be busy as it has been announced that he is developing two animated tv series based on "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" for Netflix. https://variety.com/2020/tv/news/taika-waititi-netflix-charlie-and-the-chocolate-factory-animated-series-willy-wonka-oompa-loompa-1203524577/ This...

Thanks. And today, it's 18 years since I signed up to this site.

I really should spend some more time around here.

Congrats and

Take your time Mags, my curiosity won't kill me. Yes Rogue One is the only SW film that Disney has got right. I think it is because to make it fit with ANH, they had to use similar production values, as well as deleted scenes from it. Maybe had they did the same with ST then they might have been bet...

I'm curious Mags. If you say in your first list that it's really a tie between ESB and ROTS, then how does Rogue One split them in the second list (unless it's a three way tie)?

May the Fourth be with you. Happy Star Wars Day Senators. Stay Safe.
