December 7, 20196 yr Looking at Star Wars toys for my 7 year-old. Star Wars licensing could be ridiculous, but wow. Barbie Star Wars Darth Vader Doll. It's $100, but it's real You know what this is? This is a bunch of left over Baroness dolls from one of the recent G. I. Joe movies, with a new outfit. Or it was created for the Japanese market and somehow wound up on our Amazon.com.
December 7, 20196 yr That's like one of those "Sexy Darth Vader" costumes they sell around Halloween.

Fin in particular could’ve had a bad ass backstory but instead all we got was that he was captured at a young age and was a fucking janitor on Starkiller base. And a two time (and counting ) coward. Thank goodness Tatooine Rose was there to save him

December 11, 20196 yr Even the stars of STAR WARS: The Last Jedi weren't really on board with the direction it took. John Boyega, who plays Finn, had this to say: "The Force Awakens I think was the beginning of something quite solid, The Last Jedi if I'm being honest I'd say that was feeling a bit iffy for me. I didn't necessarily agree with a lot of the choices in that and that's something that I spoke to Mark [Hamill] a lot about and we had conversations about it. And it was hard for all of us, because we were separated." I got a bad feeling about 9
December 11, 20196 yr They aren't separated in 9 which was part of his point. He was happy to get to be with Rey and Poe in this one. Edited December 11, 20196 yr by mdmost
December 11, 20196 yr you can also take it he didnt agree with some of the direction. just like Hamill complained during filming
December 11, 20196 yr Yeah, I'm sure if he had his choice, he wouldn't have been going off on a side adventure with Rose and would've done something with Poe in the last movie. You're not going to see me defending the Canto Bight shitfest.
December 11, 20196 yr dont want to beat the dead horse of good movie bad movie, but I wish they would have gone deeper into the internal conflict of Finn having second thoughts of being a storm trooper. And then dying to redeem himself to save the rebellion at the end

December 11, 20196 yr Man I’m starting to hear from all sorts of random places that this movie is going to suck. I’m holding out a scrap of hope.

December 11, 20196 yr 1 minute ago, nineliveslost said: just read it. Uhmmmmm, yea. To fit all that in is going to take a 6 hour movie Or will be the most confusing bumblefuck movie in the entire series, which would be a fitting follow up to TLJ.
December 11, 20196 yr Just as long as Teen Yoda shows up and annihilates everyone with extreme prejudice. No complaints.

December 11, 20196 yr No teen Yoda in any "scripts" i have seen. A lot of jumping from planet to planet and scene to scene. I've got a baaaad feeling about this... Hopefully its inter-web misinformation and diversion from what really is in the movie. HOPEFULLY
December 11, 20196 yr Use spoiler tags obviously if you're talking spoilers. Some of us can contain ourselves enough to wait 9 days.

December 11, 20196 yr Finished the Clone Wars series. Glad to see there is a final season coming in 2020. I’m going to muscle through Rebels but I don’t like it nearly as much, it seems like a kiddie show at least in the first season. Amazingly enough Clone Wars actually makes the prequels make a little more sense, and answers a few big questions in general (where do force ghosts come from?). Still afraid the whole thing won’t wrap up well.

December 11, 20196 yr Jesus christ people don't talk about leaks if you aren't gonna post about it. It's like when people talk about behind the scenes texas football stuff and don't mention names. Either tell it all or don't bitch.

Summary of reddit spoilers: The consensus is that Rey is a Palpatine, either as his grandchild, a clone, or the child of a clone. He stayed alive powered by the spirits of all previous fallen Sith. He created or recruited Snoke to build the First Order as a vehicle to take over the galaxy again whenever he drained the life energy from a Skywalker or Rey. Maybe wanted to co-run things with Rey, or pass the torch to her. Leia dies remotely trying to save Rey from Kylo by distracting him and/or trying to redeem Ben. Kylo realizes he’s been a pawn all along and flips back. There may or may not be a hallucination where he see Harrison Ford telling him to ditch the dark side. Rey and Kylo confront decrepit Palps who tries to drain their life force. Ben dies but Rey uses her force manipulation powers to bring him back. Rey dies killing Palpatine. Ben returns the favor by transferring his remaining life energy to bring back Rey and he dies again. No more Skywalkers. Final scene, the crew visits the Lars igloos on Tatooine where she buries Anakin, Luke, and Leia’s lightsabers in sand (I hate sand! Final burn on Anakin!) and takes on the Skywalker surname.

December 12, 20196 yr That summary is generally consistent with the spoilers I read. I am actually kind of excited by the prospect of this being one of the worst movies ever made. The leaked plot is on par with a Mystery Science Theater 3000 movie. Spoiler They should continue the "deaths" a few more times. Kylo: I'm dead. Rey: No, I'm dead. Kylo: No, I'm dead. Rey: No, I'm dead. Kylo: No, I'm dead.

There is a bunch of awesome, awesome stuff in the later seasons. Facts, he speaks. And the Reddit spoilers are probably halfway right. If anyone read them they line up perfectly with what we've seen in the trailers and TV spots so far. Which has lead some to believe that whoever is releasing the spoilers is on the marketing side. So while some of the spoilers will be correct, there is some belief that some key parts are being left out or misinterpreted completely. Just some peoples opinions.
December 14, 20196 yr Just ran into Harrison Ford at the County Market. His resting bitch face told me not to ask his opinion or If he’s seen it yet. CSB.
