Hopefully.

Imagine grumpy Uncle Owen and Obi-Wan teaming up to save young Luke and a bunch of kids kidnapped by a Mad Max villain. That's the movie I'd do.

The review embargo just dropped. So far its tracking pretty much in line with Rogue One so... make of that what you will.

I really don't get what people are talking about when they say TFA is a remake of ANH. Who is Finn in this analogy?

It's much closer to reflecting the entire OT.

At least the first act of TFA mirrors the first act of ANH really significantly and the third act of TFA mirrors the third act of RotJ significantly as well.

(Like seriously I don't get how people see: Strike team blows up shield generator so that air forces can get in and blow up superweapon from the inside whilst the Jedi engage in a personal lightsaber duel and think "Oh poo poo that's just like ANH!)

Kathleen Kennedy posted:

"We think that the next spin-off will be dedicated to Lando Calrissian. Of course, there are still many stories to tell about Han and Chewbacca, but Lando will be next."
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I do believe that's saying otherwise?

"After publishing the story Premiere put out a correction saying there was a "misunderstanding" between the journalist and Kennedy. Lucasfilm's statement says (translated from French) "We would love to tell a story about Lando Calrissian one day, but it's not relevant. It would be fun to tell the story of Han and Chewie ...""

So once they're done with the Han Solo trilogy or whatever, they'll do Lando

That's what I got from that article

Whatever.
That's in line with the rumors which hit last week.

I'm down for the story, I would just replace Sand people with some other nefarious local gangsters causing problems for the farmers. Seems like an opportunity for more variable baddies and fun. My dream movie for this has always basically been Yojimbo/Fist Full of Dollars set around Anchorhead.

I'm conflicted because TMZ is usually on the money with this stuff but also part of that synopsis is a straight-up copy/paste from the Legends Kenobi book:

R2's always been portrayed as a bit of a dick, so probably not. Or he told him, then immediately wiped his memory.

R2-D2 probably agreed with Yoda that "not ready for the burden" was Luke until he learned the truth - after all, he was present when they divided up the babies. But after Return of the Jedi, he was probably Luke's primary source during his investigation of the history of the Jedi.
