I should be good. May be late, I'll message you guys and let you know if that's the case.

And if we decide not to Shadowrun because of Herc's absence... might be time for a session of Actual Cannibal Shia LeBeouf wink

I'm down, but nor would I mind a break to get some editing done. Either way I'd need to wrap up a bit earlier (11 EST).

Interesting! Unfortunately I'm out of town Saturday celebrating my sister's birthday. Have fun!

It's easily the best scene in the entire special though so I'll forgive it that transgression.

Rian Johnson has said that his sequel is going to have something that has never been done in the Star Wars films before. I hope it's musical numbers with elaborate dance choreography.

It's been done.

Although I guess if your emphasis was on elaborate, sure, we can do that, but looking at that and saying it needs more choreography is like looking at the first Death Star and saying, "It needs to be bigger."

I think on Sundays we usually don't start for another hour anyway. IIRC you were providing cover from the rooftops as we stopped the motorcade at a red light, blew off the door and nabbed the guy.

To be fair to the prequels, Qui-Gon did jabber on about "the living Force" a whole bunch, so stretching the prequel version of things may still support that.

And if she's more loyal to Snoke than the First Order (assuming that Snoke has multiple pieces in play, of which the First Order is one; or at least has more pieces than just Starkiller) and gets away.

They had R2 working his ass off to stop the compactor and even then were about 2.5 seconds away from being mush. Its not like imperial trash compactors are notiriously buggy or anything. That thing could and would have turned them all to paste without R2.

Unless we find out Phasma has her own personal snarky charming droid that follows her everywherw. If she went in there and they turned it on. Shes paste. (Note I would TOTALLY be down for cute and adorable phasma sidekick if she comes back)

I just figure, "Hell, Rebels will get out of there anyway, might as well install a safety latch."

Just like how in 30 years we discovered that these were good ideas.

Also, if there's a caption contest for Luke, the Twitter account "Very Lonely Luke" has been playing it for a week straight. https://twitter.com/VeryLonelyLuke

End on a shot of Luke and also, Rey, honey, that's the business end of the lightsaber. You don't point that end at people you like. Didn't you learn how to hand somebody scissors in kindergarten?

I'd say it's more like making a souffle after watching Alton Brown make one on a Good Eats episode recently. It's still not gonna turn out great, but it'll be passable.

They should have given a more concrete reason for why or how she could use the force so well OR they should have hung a lantern on it like "how the fuck did you do that?" and have her just not know and be confused. At least acknowledge it.

They did, kind of. "How did you get out?" "I don't know, and you wouldn't believe me if I told you." Something to that effect. ("Escape now, hug later. 'Kay?")

You're sick, there were Rebel pilots and ship crews there. Mon Mothma might've been handy.

Right? Palpatine's hologram was almost the same size but it was just his head. Snoke was downright humble by comparison.

I'm hoping Rey isn't an Anakin descendant too. An issue I had with the prequels was too much small world syndrome. Give us some truly fresh blood here.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say there's one aspect where the Prequels were better than Ep7, and that's the score.

I need to watch it again. In general I'm not great at picking out new themes - I didn't "recognize" Battle of the Heroes as a new great theme until repeat viewings of the movie after having listened to the soundtrack, and for the longest time I associated Duel of the Fates with pod racing because it was the menu music for Star Wars Racer.

Loved the crashed destroyer shots.

Hell yes. Just a gorgeous way of evoking the old imagery while emphasizing the time that's elapsed. The Empire is a literal corpse being picked apart for scrap.

And it did a great job of showing the scale of the things. The Empire built them BIG and you could see that here. Though the shots of the First Order destroyer were impressive too, with how close the Falcon flew to it, and of course that opening shot. Took me a while to figure out exactly what was happening there.

But they got the formula. Crawl, tilt down, enter a Star Destroyer.

Why not just take the droid off the girl instead of offer her 60 portions?

I imagine the boss had been told the First Order wanted it, preferably without a ruckus; either that or "no ruckus" was just his preference. After he couldn't get it through that, and knowing Rey is damn good with her staff, he just called in the First Order to take care of the job instead of getting his own head busted in. Smart move.

As far as Poe getting off Jakku, I imagine it'll be the subject of a short, mayyybe a spinoff, or almost certainly a book. But it was one of the loose ends that wanted you to just go with it.

I don't believe we decided this far in advance. I could go either way this Sunday, might almost prefer to do it since the two following are out for me.

I didn't get the feeling of overly expositiony lines; in fact I wanted just a tad more from the setting. Characters themselves were well fleshed out though, which is the primary concern.

Regarding the setting: How big is the First Order? The Republic? Why the separation between Republic and Resistance? I figure we'll get more details on that in three years. For now I'm happy the focused on the characters because, as Praxus said, they're making me want to stick around for the next one.
