I watched Rogue One the other day after I bought the K2SO Hot Toy. Then this morning, before work, I was feeding my son Luke his bottle and I put on TFA and Got to the party where Han and Chewie show up. Rey and Finn talk about the map to Luke and Han says yeah, I knew Luke and man that got me in the feels. I named my son after this character that still has his story going since I was a baby. Cant wait to watch it all with him.

Force Ghost Luke forever.
I'm telling you
Luke and Rey part ways in the last scene of EP9. Luke packs his shit and heads out to the far reaches of space for permanent retirement.
Think about how powerful that ending would be. Rey having to say goodbye to him for the last time

I'd bet my house that Luke doesn't survive past IX. Kennedy saying that Leia would have a larger role in IX makes me think he might not even survive The Last Jedi. Though I still think he'll make it to IX.

Andy Serkis did an interview at EGX yesterday and hinted we might find out more about Snoke than Rian Johnson's been letting on.

Luke killed at the end of VIII. Last scene is of Luke, transparent, with Ewan and Liam fading into the same room as we roll credits.
Star Wars Episode IX: Force Ghosts
I had a feeling. I think Rian is trying to keep stuff a surprise.

I must admit the one-off issues that Aaron's written to finish his run on Star Wars have been pretty good. I didn't like Yoda's Secret War but it's been nice to see his run pick up a bit before it ends. The R2 manual issue was just really good fun. I'm looking forward to Gillen's take though.
Damn, you guys weren't kidding about Vader #5. That was a hell of an issue.

Why did you choose to have months between each film? I'm sure I'll watch the OT+TFA before going in to see TLJ, but shoot... might do all that in a single weekend.
I love how there is a small throwaway line in RotJ on which they can base Lukes wish on the Jedi to end.
Or at least signs that Luke doesnt care if all force users are gone.
There is a moment where he tells the emporer, that they booth are about to die and they can twist it easily that Luke didnt cared about the order at that moment anymore and just later went back to the wish of Yoda to give his teachings to the next generation.

Dunno, would be the second time in just one year and i didnt want to wear these movies out to much.Why did you choose to have months between each film? I'm sure I'll watch the OT+TFA before going in to see TLJ, but shoot... might do all that in a single weekend.
I think the problem with a lot of his run was pacing. Stuff was just too long for no reason, like Last Flight of the Harbinger. He said in an interview that he initially planned the Han/Grakkus issue to be a full arc. Why?!
Once he trimmed things down it got more fun.

I wish I could rewatch the OT in anything other than 4:3 DVD edition form, lol.
Got it on my phone (based DMA). Will probably have to do that, haha.

Thanks to the Marvel sale I have been reading the whole Vader series.
Vader Down was so much fun. Really wish we could see that on a big screen. *whew*
Aphra is a fun character. Bought Volume 1 of her series as well.
While the run has been a blast to read overall, it does bother me that outside of the last scene in Rogue One, we just dont see live action Vader as a true action badass anywhere else in the series. Books and comics make him so great sometimes - and yeah, the movies do well too - but on film he is a stoic, talking badass. He just doesnt do much on screen most of the series. Kind of a bummer now that the comics here made me think of it.

I wouldn't say it's shit but it's the weakest part of Gillen's run on Vader. Similarly to the Screaming Citadel, it started well and went downhill after that.

Vader Down got really dumb after the first issue. Granted I havent been a fan of any of the Marvel comics so far.

You read Lando?
The crossovers have been the weakest parts of the ongoing series' runs, but from what I recall Gillen said there isn't another SW/Aphra crossover planned for next year. I think they learned their lesson. Although ironically a second SW/Aphra crossover would actually probably turn out pretty well since Gillen will be writing both comics by that point!

I'm one of those weird people who actually prefers his Respecialized cuts because they don't have the awful color grading of the 2004 DVDs nor the questionable changes of the 2011 BDs, while keeping in the superior compositing and Yavin CG.
Sure, in exchange you have an even-crappier CG Jabba and screaming Luke in ESB but it's still a solid trade-off.

I don't what those scenes ANYWHERE NEAR my beautiful SW. Completely ruins the film for me to watch that stuff.
After everything I've seen, Despecialized are as close to perfect as it's going to get. I don't see anything in those versions that I notice and am like "well I wish that were different/gone".
I dunno, I think they're pretty much the definitive versions at this point

He did a good job with Star Trek Beyond. It was a bit hard to follow some of the action scenes though. The fight between Jaylah and Krall's second-in-command comes to mind. I've never really followed the Fast and Furious films so I can't comment on his work on those.

About time. I had to buy digital, which I dont really like, because the physical copies were a fortune.
Tem wants to come back as Captain Rex.

I didnt realize he was credited as Commander Cody in Ep 3.
Cody is the one who talks to Obi-Wan before he flies off to Utapau.
Well, yeah. He was also the one who gave Obi-wan back his lightsaber as well as being the first clone onscreen to directly receive Order 66.

While it's gonna be weird not having an apparent animated show on television in fall 2018, and I'll assume the 2019 show may very well be apart of disney's streaming service, I think the break will be good and hopefully allow them to come up with a visual style they can vary week to week more affordable then clone wars so we don't get the same week after week look we got with rebels. Also hoping they get an era where they get a little more freedom in play space, I don't really care what era that is as long as it isn't hampered by other plans by the story group
Rex is a creation of the Clone Wars cartoon.
unless Rex happened to be one the countless clones shown in the movie, then no
He was on Mandalore with Ahsoka during the time of ROTS, so yeah he's a show only character for the time being.
From this and novel it does redeem from her
I do love the addition of the fact that we will never see her face even so far in the novel.
The art is also gorgeous and do hope we have more of her next movie and her characterization
I do hope "Pilot" won't bite the bullet
is the 2nd or 3rd best Stormtrooper
