I'm a lurker and have been for many years (incl old place) and just wanted to say how truly awesome you all are in this hangout. It's so damn refreshing to hear positive, fun, incredibly interesting and downright hilarious Star Wars stuff instead of the relentless onslaught of negativity everywhere else.
Seriously, thanks!
Seriously, thanks!
I was listening to the audiobook when I got to that part and the narrator
actually made the "PRUNE FACE" voice from that Robot Chicken sketch, so that's how I knew it was him before the character even presented himself lol.
Lmao. This has to be somebody from ERA.
edit: another confirm btw.
edit 2:
:(

This is quite good to see. Generally the negative minority will usually shine brighter because they tend to shout the loudest but it is just that, a minority. RJ is a treasure and I've loved every movie of his I've seen.
I don't mind it, I feel like her storyline would overshadow the Resistance building up again.
They could've had her helping out
Poe at the party, I think. She didn't have to stay on the Falcon and essentially be Episode I's Obi-Wan.
All the Poe and Finn stuff was cool, wanted that for my homegirl.
Welcome. Feel free to pipe in whenever. I lurked her for years and then slowly started posting. Now it's largely the only place I post just because it's a mostly comfortable, chill space to post while the TROS hype builds.
Pull up a chair. All the dudes and dudettes haven't kicked me out of here yet, so I'm sure everyone is welcome as long as you're not a butthole.
I thought about that too but I felt like they were making it a point on how:
awkward and...well not outgoing (I might've chosen the wrong word) she may be, especially her scene with Leia and when she was at the dinner with Yendor and co. on Ryloth. Don't think she would've fit well in the party scene(s)
It's sad too, it's prime time to be a fan due to the content coming out but outside of here you'll just get the usual comments after a while
I mentioned it before, but these SW threads are gonna keep coming. There is no other mainstream nerd event on the horizon. The MCU is between phases and there's no major comic book/fantasy/sci-fi event in sight.
For better or worse, Star Wars has the next few months all to itself in geek pop culture.

Finished Resistance Reborn. Was a little disappointing. Was kind of expecting something to set up The Rise of Skywalker, and instead it felt like a side story to reconnect with characters from the books.
And Rey was barely in it.

This is why I'm not going to get it, I was hoping for something like Labyrinth of Evil.
How do I get Disney+ on PS4? Will the app just be available in the store tomorrow?
Does anyone know ?
Does anyone know ?
Thinking of flying to the US so I can steal one of y'all identity and watch Mandalorian tomorrow
God damn, it's crazy how much the Mary Sue stuff got overblown. I'm rewatching TFA after like a year plus. You can argue that it's due to the falcon being old, but as soon as it takes off Rey almost crashes it. This comes after she's convincing herself, "I can do this", while trying to use her experience as a pilot and improvising how all the controls work.
As soon as they start flying, Finn shouts at her to stay low, because it confuses their tracking. Rey then says.. what? OK going low.
As they're flying, Finn again shouts at her "WE NEED COVER". She then looks for cover and sees crashed remains on the surface.
After Rey tells Finn to start firing back, he asks her "are the shields up?" She then throws the co-pilot switch to engage the shields.
She's constantly being aided as she pilots the falcon, but I honestly never heard this discussed even way back in the day.
She also drags the falcon on the ground, in the sand, during the chase and crashes into ship debris.
Clearly, she's also incredibly gifted and uses the Force to do crazy shit, like pilot inside of the destroyer and stalling out for Finn to line up his shot, but so much of this got ignored within all those arguments.

"Officer, we arrested this man at the border attempting to kill someone and steal their identity"
"Why?"
"So he could watch the Mandalorian on Disney+"
"................Yeah? Good"
Was this really on purpose? I mean, why was Luke wearing "the white robes of the Jedi" years into his exile?
Yoda: time It is for you, to look past a pile of old books, hmmm

Rian Johnson liked the tweet lol
Are we going to spoiler tag Mandalorian stuff in here tomorrow? I won't even be able to watch until the afternoon
Unless...unless...I watched while at work...but...no...
Yeah pretty much all of this is an argument I've been having with one of my friends since its release, she isn't faultless or perfect, she gets by because of talent, motivation and a strong connection to the force guiding her along with the people around her
They gotta catch me for that conversation
to even happen homie 😎
I am one with the force and the force is with me

I wouldn't be able to watch it till the afternoon at work anyway, so guess who's waking up early tomorrow! :D
:D

I am not watching until Saturday so I will have to leave you fine people for a few days after tonight. Just know, you are all a beacon of light in the darkness.
The hidden argument behind the Mary Sue argument is the rejection of genetic superiority, imo. How many people who use that term to describe Rey's prowess would have been satiated by Rey being a Skywalker genetically gifted with flight and skill?
If anyone objects I'll edit it out, but this is a spoiler from Fallen Order that isn't a big spoiler for the game itself but I found it to be a pretty mind blowing link from the old EU to The Force Awakens.
Starkiller Base is Ilum, the snow planet with Yoda and Padme from the Clone Wars cartoon.
I just rewatched Rogue One and that shit hurted bro
Especially Chirrut and Baze
Those my boys.
Fuck Cassian, gimme dat Guardians of the Whills series.
"he viewed the set up for IX Johnson gave him as a big gift"
So he's confirming there was no plan, time to make a new thread
I FUCKING KNEW IT
This was heavily implied in the Ahsoka novel a couple years ago but wasn't confirmed.
But John Campea told me JJ and RJ can't stand each other
Man, not clicking on spoilers and contenting yourself with out-of-context reactions from others is a flippin' epiphany
*chef's kiss*
Woooow this fallen order game wild
*chef's kiss*
