DeimosRising posted:It's very obvious that ditching the old EU as corporate canon had nothing to do with how stupid it was and the new stuff is going to be exactly as stupid I don't know why you thought otherwise. Ditching the old EU was so they could make entirely new stories without having to deal with the old stories. It had nothing to do with "quality". The new EU had as much chance as being "not stupid" as the old EU.

Let's be honest, some of the worst of the blessed canon has been just as bad if not worse than the worst of the old EU. And the same goddamn people are in charge of it all at the end of the day. All. New canon, old EU, new EU.

I hope Han shoots Greedo multiple times in the Solo movie Like even when Greedo is a kid hanging around the pod racing stuff Han shoots him when trying to hit a sand person

The article about the skull reminded me that the original Star Wars card game had a lot of funny and sarcastic text on them.

Sorry if this has been discussed to death already, but how's the "A Certain Point of View" book? Seems like the kind of thing my wife would like, but want to make sure it is actually quality before picking it up for her.

It’s gotten a fairly mixed response around here, but I dug the majority of its stories. It’s fairly important that you don’t take it too seriously, is all.

There’s a new behind-the-scenes video out; it’s mostly “Rian Johnson! “ but there’s a few new visual tidbits like Benicio Del Toro’s character going undercover with Finn and Rose

Do the Stars War movies have super detailed special features like the LotR and Hobbit movies?

UmOk posted:Do the Stars War movies have super detailed special features like the LotR and Hobbit movies? When the prequels came out, each had a documentary focusing on an aspect of the film. RotS had a really neat one called "Within a Minute" which was about all the work that goes on behind the scenes to make one minute of the film

It's insane to me that they shot the end of VII in remote Ireland, with a plan for VIII in mind, but halted production, everyone flew home, and then flew back to start on VIII like a year or two later, on basically the same scene. It just seems so wasteful.

They should've just shot them back-to-back à la Lord of the Rings. It's not like an Episode 8 was in doubt...

Unlike LotR, Episodes VII and VIII have different writers and directors.

# ? Oct 26, 2017 11:01 |

I understand why they did it, it just seems like something that they could've planned around.
|
# ? Oct 26, 2017 11:08 |

Right. But a significant chunk of VIII is shot in that location and when VII was shooting the script wasn't past the treatment stage.
|
# ? Oct 26, 2017 15:12 |
|
And from what I understand, for the production of VIII, they didn't spend too long actually on Skellig Michael, instead building an island top set on the Irish mainland, to avoid disrupting things on the island too much

I am not sure what else I could gleam from it. As the LoTR documentaries were excellent and I feel the Hobbit stuff would just be more of the same.
