If what we're hearing about Rogue One is true and its about a mission to steal the Death Star plans, I wonder if we will get a Darth Vader cameo in that.


That actually wouldnt suprise me, that way they get to put vader in the first few movies

Afterall the first 6 movies are about him/anakin and his remains are seen in this trailer for 7
 
I totally agree. It really was the best of the prequels.

The best thing that came out of the prequals is the Clone wars TV series. Anikan was actually likable and had depth to his character. It makes his fall and his turning to the darkside actually kinda heartbreaking.

In my head the Star wars is listed in this order:

Episode 1
Clone wars TV show
Episode 4
Episode 5
Episode 6

100% with you on this.

II & III simply don't bear mentioning as pieces of cinema and should be purged from memory, let alone as part of the overall Skywalker arc and Star Wars story. The only scene I can think of that's good in those two is the one in which Palpatine is telling Anakin the tale of the Sith Lord:

He and Daisy Ridley closed their social media accounts a while ago likely out of the fear of accidentally revealing something they weren't supposed to.

The best part about Daisy's very short stint on Twitter was when she preemptively blocked Devin Faraci.

man, that makes me like her already

no one's been able to tell me why i'm supposed to pay attention to that guy, except that he looks like the Simpsons' Comic Book Guy come to life
 
Any good star wars podcast recommendations?

Rebel Force Radio - Closest thing to an official podcast there is, very closely connected with Lucasfilm itself.

Now This Is Podcasting - The king of Star Wars spoilers, if you are into spoilers this is your podcast.

Full Of Sith - Star Wars podcast co-hosted by GAF's own Bobby Roberts. Lots of great guest too.

I think Now This is Podcasting has a trailer reaction show. All the other shows probably won't have anything up because they were all at the convention itself.

Bryan Young of Full of Sith helped dissect the trailer on Thursday at StarWars.com during the livestream, with Devin Faraci of Badass Digest and Peter Sciretta of Slashfilm.

Coffee with Kenobi is pretty good.

I really dig those guys. Same with Star Wars Report.

(also, if you're looking to get spoiled on Star Wars, you can hit up Now This is Podcasting for every granular detail, or you can grab up my Rumor Control spinoff episodes at Full of Sith, which basically take months of rumors and squash em down into a single 30 minute episode w/ jokes.)
 
Alright, this is the scene I was talking about:

Dat cgi

The best/worst thing about this scene is that the pillar directly behind them inexplicably isn't casting a shadow on the walkway like every other pillar, probably because they hadn't really designed the space/lighting scheme when they shot the actors on green screen and their very prominent rim light meant they couldn't walk through a giant shadow. And instead of maybe changing the background scenery so it actually makes sense, they just decided to do the easy thing by deleting a shadow/cheating with the lighting.

Bobby, I subscribed to your podcast last week. Really enjoying it so far. I'd love to get into something like this.

Great work!
 
Anyone remember the proposed Star Wars TV series back in 2005? It never saw the light of day, but I remember reading an article about one of the proposed scripts, involving
a couple of kids finding an old lightsaber in a cave, along with a broken droid (either R2-D2 or C-3PO).
They had concept art and everything, and from what I remember it sounded like they went on a quest to
find Luke
. I can't find this article anymore, then again it's over a decade old, but it does sound similar to some of the events taking place in TFW.
 
I also am a fan of Coffee with Kenobi. I am a fan of Far Far Away Radio as well. Forcecast is good when Eric Geller isn't on, he is unbearable to listen to.

Edit: Toche Station Radio is good too.
 
Looks ok

I may be in the minority who liked JJ's first Star Trek film, so I'm somewhat hopeful for this. Hopefully the script is about moving things forward and not total fanwank for us losers who are nearing 40

Most liked his first Star Trek film.

Most were pretty disappointed by his second. Though the CG was fucking on point in both. Into Darkness is pretty as hell to watch. That plot tho. ;_;
 
I may be in the minority who liked JJ's first Star Trek film,

Almost everyone liked that movie, it was a super successful and critically acclaimed movie that brought back Star Trek into the masses. It's just that it was among a vocal subsection of the existing Star Trek fanbase that didn't like it, because it was too different from old Trek; which was the whole point.

Star Trek has like 93% or something on RT. Everyone liked it a lot. Because it's a great action flick.
 
This just reminded me of how terrible Jabba looked in Phantom Menace. Just... jesus... He looked like he was made of plastic. Screenshots don't do it justice. PM just doesn't hold up at all on anything that isn't a VHS.

it's because they actually gave a shit and made miniatures and puppets for everything in the VHS days. shit that stands the test of time.
 
Apparently, according to Faraci, one of the changes in the 4K transfers (that we still don't have any sort of date or release info for) is the Jabba model is once again changed. Hopefully they've changed the stepping on the tail bit, too.
 
I may have missed it, but did we not get a teaser poster for Ep.VII (ala young Anakin/Vader shadow from Ep.1) out of Celebration?

I mean, I saw those Walmart looking ones, but I figured they'd roll out a theater poster.

They have to keep updating the model in that scene so it merely looks painfully out of place instead of aging and looking like complete and utter shit every time they re-release the film.

EDIT: Thinking about it, I'd be open to an edit of the films where they use CGI to replace Jabba in all instances, including the puppet in ROTJ, with the actor who originally played him in the deleted scene, just to change things up.

Yikes, sorry. I meant minority on GAF, I know it reviewed and performed well. But I'm no Trek or even Star Wars superfan, so I don't follow threads around here (or anywhere else) usually is all.

Trek desperately needed the reboot though. Star Wars I think is in a better place, and I think Lucas divorced from complete control is the ideal situation, so I'm pretty confident this will turn out decent.

They just need to take that scene out. It needs to stay on the cutting room floor. I mean Jabba isn't even in character as we know him in that scene.
