Star Wars 7 shit talk

i had the bounty hunters book too, i remember an ig-88 story but playing practical jokes on the emperor doesn't ring a bell.

i like the attention to detail of all the articles being in the past tense. it was a long time ago!!!!

xp I don't know, I admire the whole series where the writers [SPOILER ALERT] gave Han and Leia three kids, then killed off two of them. Kinda ballsy.

hah I think that's after my time - I do remember their three kids

remember realizing even as a kid that Kevin J. Anderson is one of the absolutely worst writers ever

C'mon man what abt Splinter of the Mind's Eye?

Fuckin' film that shit!

Looks like some sort of steampunk erotica.

OMG

Amaiza'd

Someone should put some clothes on that dalek.

Only novels I ever read were the Thrawn books and the zombie one on audio, which was actually pretty good had it not had the requisite cameos

No matter – whatever happens, the Twilight series' positive legacy is already written in stone. A generation of young readers have spent hundreds – nay thousands – of hours reading Meyer's books with the same passion and enthusiasm that the great gothic novels once excited. Moreover, they have formed an extremely vocal and articulate fanbase whose obsessive dedication to the written word has effectively forced the film-makers to remain essentially respectful of the source texts.

Truly, trolling refined into high art.

Wow, didn't expect that to be Kermode before I clicked it.

He thinks The Exorcist is the best film ever made

just remembered this guy for some reason. i wonder if the extended universe authors are at all trolling george l with all of the terrible terrible names?

A philosophical Bollux

C'mon man what abt Splinter of the Mind's Eye?

It's somewhat mindblowing to learn about this and read about the writing of "Empire" and realize "I had it all planned out from day one!" was GL's most successful achievement in creating the Star Wars myth.

It sounds like Mark, Harrison, and Carrie are down with this. I'm ok with it too, as long as Mark doesn't have to have that dumb 'Padawan learner' buzzcut with the asymmetrical rat tail from TPM.

... why would he?

In the event that Luke Skywalker had a kid and is training him to be a Jedi. And said kid may turn out evil (???) It rhymes like POETRY!

but... if he is the teacher, why would he have the hairdo of a padawan, is the question I am waiting for you to ask yourself

both of you are on time out, go to the corner and reflect on what youve done

I'm just going to sit over here and wait for you to actually remember the rest of the movie

Camera pans down to ugly pink Yoda-like creature with an eyepatch, right?

haha "a film mole" speaking to a UK paper doesn't seem hella reliable.

It isn't, but this is the shit talk thread, anything goes.

Director list allegedly including/down to Vaughn, Favreau, Fincher.

Meanwhile, whatever:

I love how this is all this bizarre demi-disgust over the 501st, who are all about the charity work.

Keep in mind that, legally speaking, Nikki Finke is mentally retarded.

holy hell that is hilarious

fans really are the worst

You don't think it is a little weird for nerds to dress up as fictional baby-killin' fascist troops and visit children's hospitals?

Darth Vader and stormtroopers have been kids' favorite characters since, like, 1977, along with Chewbacca and the droids.

Lest we forget

io9 has things to say about idiot fan

http://io9.com/5965636/and-heres-the-worst-star-wars-fan-in-the-entire-world

I've been having massive lols these past few weeks at people I know on Facebook that are taking a break from their constant Game of Thrones or Twilight status updates to sneer at Star Wars and Star Trek fans.

We know different people.
