Getting major Full Metal Jacket vibes from that short alien plane gunner. "How can you kill Ewoks and Jawas?" Easy! You just don't lead em as much!

Hyrax Attack! posted:Two questions: two storm troopers are chatting and mention something like "the T37s are being retired." What was that a reference to? Clone troopers being phased out? In ANH two stormtroopers are chatting on the Death Star while Obi sneaks around: "Have you seen the new T16?" In TFA two stormtroopers are chatting on Starkiller Base while Rey sneaks around: "Have you seen the new T17?" This time, two stormtroopers are chatting on Scarif and say "I hear the T15 is obsolete" As far as references go I love these, because they don't get in the way at of the viewer (whether you get the gag or not) and they really betray that JJ and Gareth are complete nerds.

Radio! posted:Also the thing about the Bothans is Mon Mothma's only memorable line so people think of it when they see her in this. I think this is probably as good a theory as any, since A. The Bothans stole the DS2 plans and B. They didn't steal the DS2 plans, they uncovered the location: Return of the Jedi posted:MON MOTHMA It's now apparent to me that the way to a sequel is to bring back the Rogue One cast but dress them up as goatpeople.

The biggest quirks of the IV Vader mask are the red eyes, the more angled brown line, the small chin triangle. They cleaned it up in subsequent movies, ultimately making the III mask super perfect and symmetrical. Counting on someone here to add Little Orphan Ani lines to Vader's corridor massacre. "I'll try spinning, that's a neat trick" edit: also it's not confirmed but since we are in the VIII spoiler thread, it appears the Celebration badges may be our first look at Finn and Rey from VIII.

Right. It plays the same way as Return of the Jedi that could be referring to Luke, Anakin, the collective, any or all of that.

MSW and SWNN have both started posting rumors and "an insider told me this" posts about Snoke, Kylo, del Toro, and Laura Dern. It sounds like the art design of TLJ is going to be much bolder than that of TFA. All that stuff is available on their sites and the Star Wars Leaks subreddit.

Ewan-Obi is so great and builds into Alec-Obi so well. It's been pointed out in the thread before, but Old Ben is kind of a goofy trickster who is really good at dispensing and detecting bullshit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9k-941c-ZTc&t=78s

If you look at Empire from the "total story" perspective it's also a huge detour if you want to think of it like that. The "main event" is just the rebellion evacuating Hoth and getting to their rally point in space. The two story threads are 1. What a long strange trip it's been trying to limp our space-van back home and 2. Fighter pilot goes on a spiritual retreat at a less than opportune time. TLJ is going to rule. I've been expecting it to be awesome since Johnson was rumored to be attached in 2014.

clown shoes posted:It seems the most likely scenario is to keep on Rainn from episode 8. This was my first guess. If they are happy with him behind the scenes at this moment, I bet he'd be interested. JJ almost didn't take the gig because he didn't wanted to relocate to the UK for a year plus, but Rian might be game. Depends on whether they think they can find someone more profitable than RJ, who at this point is tried and most likely true.

Since it's picking up with Luke and Rey seconds later I guess pretty much everyone else in the story is packing up and running at that time.

Mark has followed up by saying that he's not a writer, and that his ideas for Luke in TFA were also dumb. The porgs are gonna be puppets sometimes and CG sometimes. As I recall, the fully rolling RC BB8 was finally completed and working at the end of filming so that video clip from Celebration is more or less its debut, but they said they were going to use it where possible in VIII

Lucas made ewoks because he wanted to have the Viet Cong fight the Evil Empire. And they don't do as good a job as everyone remembers, they get several fun/cool kills in but they just as often get smushed. Chewie commandeering a walker is the only way the fight is able to wrap. The franchise fatigue is coming from inside the movie in Return of the Jedi. Also the matte paintings are bizarrely noticeable. When Disney announced an Episode every two years I wondered if that was enough time for one of these movies to percolate, but honestly, it's probably better than forcing all these kids to commit for a few more years and just be absolutely over it, visibly looking toward their next projects off camera in the final film. If that trailer porg is a stowaway that ends up hanging out with Chewie for the final act of the film everyone is gonna be mad as heck

It's funny bc his mask was all over in the leadup to TFA and now it hardly featured in the TFA stuff. Maybe they planned it out like this, but it seems like they were hedging their bets on people liking Kylo and made a mistake in their favor, where the fanbase really took to him, mask aside. Kinda like the flipside of how they somehow didn't make enough Rey toys

Jeb! Repetition posted:Anyway, I realized the biggest missed opportunity in all of Star Wars. Instead of being an ice planet, they should have had Starkiller Base be a forest planet or even a rain forest planet and when the sun darkened to charge up the weapon it got colder until there was a blizzard that killed all the native life because they'd never experienced cold before. Maybe that's what happened when they did a low power test shot. Find out when Rogue Three comes out in December 2023
