Star Wars 7 shit talk

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

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

was thinking vince vaughn for a second

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

Finally, we're going to find out that R2 D2 is a true Jedi master!

io9 has things to say about idiot fan

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.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"Little Miss Sunshine" screenwriter Michael Arndy is penning the script.

he also did Toy Story 3

Yawn.

Actually, I think he's a great choice. I'm a little more optimistic now. I thought he did a great job with Super-8, and I think he will be the dude that can remember that these are meant to be, at heart, kid's stories but that kids don't need to be condescended to (fucking jar-jar).

oh shit, stormtroopers AND lens flare!

haha, tbf though, considering the major Close Encouters era Spielberg vibe Abrams was going for, the lens flare was p appropriate if completely fucking overused

This seems like a win-win to me. Now that Star Trek has been revived as commercially viable franchise, someone else can take it in a more interesting direction and Abrams can make the Star Wars movie he always wanted to make.

And anyone who was excited about new Star Wars to begin with and is disappointed with this news: lol, sucker.

i'm pretty happy with it!

lol, well hey if "too much lens flare" is all they've got, he's getting off lucky so far. i don't envy dude at all, hope he's prepared to have every decision he makes for the next four years consistently shat upon by all corners of the internet.

That didn't take long:

feel like this dude could do ok if he concentrates on making a cool movie and avoids the super 8 sentimental meta bullshit, could be p hard to resist what w working on a legendary franchise and the temptation to just fill it w a lot of nerd pleasing references to the 1st trilogy

So like Segel's The Muppets, basically.

I demand a nerd-pleasing reference to AMAIZA FOXTRAIN

even just like stylistic references to the first one could be p dangerous

Eh i don't think so. As long as GL isn't involved then there is far less to worry about.

Every Star Wars movie references the older ones, starting w Empire.

cool post

Cool response

How wude!

AMAIZA FOXTRAIN is expanded universe i.e. not in any films. Like "Tiberius".

a crime which needs to be rectified

even just like stylistic references to the first one could be p dangerous

naw they gotta do the wipes and stuff

Wonder how much Disney would have to pay Fox to license the fanfare for use before the opening crawl?

Hahah I've been wondering about that since day one.

ha

There's no worse vanity card than the 3D BV castle these days.

I will miss the fanfare, but I will not miss this movie. Very excited that anyone who grew up on SW will be directing SW.

Plus, they're sequels. It's not like he's remaking Holy Mountain or something.
