It's on the internet so it must be true!

These are always fun.

It's obviously Finn Windu or Calrissian. They are the only two black guys in the galaxy.

If you guys didn't watch the Celebration live streams, you missed out.

Watch what you click on...there is a quatrochan leak of the plot. I dare not read it.

What link?

not passing it along but it's a plot synopsis from quatrochan

Director says this will be the darkest SW film of all.

More so than Rogue One? Because that was pretty freaking dark.

And it's going to be a big change up from TFA if true. Watched that again not too long ago - lots of moments of brevity and comedic relief....

Yes.

I have a feeling Episode IX isn't going to have a happy ending, either.... :evil:

No "nyub-nyub's".

I think it's going to be difficult to throw in any kind of "twist" in the middle film that doesn't come off as cheap and a rip off ESB.

The "twist" will come at the end of the trilogy...setting up the next one.

Like, how cool would it have been if Luke had gone dark.

It's my understanding that there are two twists in the plot already.

If you read plot spoilers you have no soul...

There's not much that one could call concrete floating around out there.

Hammmock Parties?

ROFL:clap:

probably in the minority here, but I do not like Driver as Klyo Ren . he isn't intimidating at all. would have went someone like Garrett Hedlund.

He's not really supposed to be. That's the point. He's kind of a fraud.

ah good point . also sorry I spelled Kylo Ren wrong. I do like Driver as an actor though. I have high hopes for this film because Rian Johnson is directing and Del Toro is in it. Can't wait

Jesus that sucks.

So... apparently, JJ wanted BB-8 to accompany Rey and Chewie in the Falcon on the way to meet Luke. But it was Rian Johnson who asked for changes in the script to make it R2 instead of BB-8.

That is fascinating.

intredasting...

God this is amazing.

LMAO

I'm sorry, I don't buy this for a second.

I have a friend that's the VFX supervisor for the upcoming Spielberg move "Ready Player One" and he said the security is absolutely insane. Fingerprint and retina scan, in and out.

I'm not saying that 100% that it can't happen but why would anyone who's at that level of filmmaking risk their entire career (not to mention, serious Federal prosecution) for stealing video?

And FWIW, even though JW is listed as the composer for "Ready Player One", he's too busy with Star Wars so it's now Alan Silvestri (even though IMDB hasn't been updated).

6.5 bitcoins?:shrug:

Is that a lot?

Doesn't sound like much.

It's about $11,000.

Mark is going to slay his Luke Skywalker reprisal.

What the ****...?

It's just another movie. Showing off Mark's acting chops.

Obi-Wan movie is happening.

http://fandom.wikia.com/articles/ewa...strange-disney

As I've said in multiple threads, it was a matter of resolving his arc in Episode IX.

Now that it starts shooting this summer, the story group is working on a script with an announcement to come this summer.

This is just pure speculation on my part, but are we to assume that Rey very well could be a Kenobi from this statement?

That, I don't know.

We hear Alec Guinness and Ewan McGregor in TFA and Ewan actually recorded new lines for the "Forceback". Originally, Rian Johnson was slated to script both VIII and IX. But VIII was such a huge undertaking that it was decided last year that Colin Trevorrow would write (actually, co-write) IX, was which was completely re-written after Carrie's passing.

KK's been giving the creatives a wide berth and didn't want to announce and begin scripting an Obi Wan film that wouldn't have continuity or handcuff the writers of VIII and IX.

With Maul's death in Rebels at the hand of Obi Wan, along with the completion of the new trilogy, Lucasfilm now has a roadmap in which to create an amazing film (or films) featuring Obi Wan and presumably, Yoda, with Bail Organa and even Boba Fett as side characters.

Oh yeah. Awesome this will be.

Is that Brienne of ****ing Tarth?

She was in The Force Awakens...

Yes it is. Captain Phasma. The very same one Chewie knocked the **** out.

https://youtu.be/cwwer6_FCs4?t=54s

Did they show her face in that movie? I don't remember seeing her.

Nope, she had the bucket on the whole time. Supposedly she takes it off in VIII.

I'm surprised they would green light this before gauging the reaction to the Han Solo movie.

Why? It has no bearing whatsoever.

Furthermore, KK and Lucasfilm have the "Galaxy" mapped out until 2030.

Total waste of a character. I can't believe how much they hyped her.

Agreed. After the fact, it seemed almost like it was a "OMG, did you hear that they were getting the tall chick from Game of Thrones in a Star Wars movie???" type of shtick. Disappointed. Hopefully they do better by her and that character in VIII.

They hyped the character for marketing purposes but in reality, many of her scenes ended up on the cutting room floor (old expression for editing - not really valid today since movies are edited in AVID).

As much as JJ Abrams has taken "credit" for co-writing, directing and producing the film, the final version was heavily influenced (and in some cases, additional shots) by Ava Duvernay and Steven Spielberg (among others).

I expect a totally different film from Rian Johnson.

Wow, didn't know that. So the remaining spin-offs have been determined already... Interesting. So, Han Solo, Obi-Wan, Yoda, Jar Jar, etc..

Personally, I'm not as interested in the Han Solo movie as I was to see Rogue One. The idea that we know that the driving characters will be okay regardless of whatever's thrown at them kinda takes away the entertainment value IMO.
I'll definitely go out and see it but I'd just hoped that they'd be more creative in their spin-offs rather than just rehashing old characters in prequels. I hate prequels, (and so does everybody else except you Dane:D).

I'm not necessarily stating that they've been "determined" but a roadmap exists until 2030.

The entire story group is involved (including Dave Filoni, who's kind of the "Mastermind" behind everything). John Knoll, who pitched the Rogue One story, recently pitched another film to KK.

At this point, from my understanding, at least six more movies are planned, including the Obi Wan, another Skywalker trilogy and more spinoffs. I also think that it's safe to assume should the Han Solo movie play well, we'll see at least one more film featuring him.

I suppose that if VIII, IX and Han Solo don't play well, then their plans will change. But since the 2012 acquisition, they've knocked it out of the park with the comics, novels, animated series and movies.

I think the main drawback to the Solo and Kenobi movies is that you know they'll survive, no matter what horrible things befall them. You didn't have that with Rogue One, since all the principal rebel characters were unknown. The first time I watched it, I kept thinking, it's a Disney movie, they'll probably survive in the end somehow. And then they didn't. That was awesome. Had they come up with some corny twist to save them all in the end, it would have really cheapened the whole thing. Instead, we got a Glory ending, which was wonderful.

Well then.

Ezra looks like he's lived a hard life.....

Ezra would be older than Luke.

Yeah, there were some folks pretty disappointed in how much of her screen time was cut. Her role was basically reduced to "bring down the shields".

I guess she's hunting down Finn this time.

Great shots.

What would've stopped Vader from having an affair/love child? He did it once before.

Um...the fact that he's burned beyond recognition and has to wear a suit to breath right?

I'm sure it didn't happen, but I bet he can spread his seed without kissing.

Uther knocked up Egrayne while wearing full plate armor, so there is precedent. :D

Excalibur reference, rep to you good sir.

Burned off testicles that's what.

seeing this film for Del Toro .

Gimme the 'saber, you ****in' ****sucker.

Leaked ‘The Last Jedi’ Footage Reveals Chewbacca Balding Since ‘The Force Awakens’

http://images2.onionstatic.com/onion...ginal/1200.jpg

More like a six head, amirite?

:clap:ROFL

While it was released a year and a half ago, the Star Wars fandom hasn't stopped dissecting and discussion J.J. Abrams' Star Wars: The Force Awakens. And aside from the new characters and settings, much of the conversation has revolved around the mysterious Supreme Leader Snoke, played by Andy Serkis. Seen briefly through a hologram, fans have crafted a ton of theories about the villain, with some even hoping he may be a resurrected Darth Vader. And now one Star Wars expert has clarified a major aspect of Snoke's character.

Pablo Hidalgo is a Star Wars writer who has worked on both novels and comics within the franchise. He recently revealed (via Twitter) how Snoke was described in The Force Awakens' script, and it definitely clears some things up. Check it out.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">I guess this question has come up. Snoke&#39;s humanity, as described in the novelization of The Force Awakens. <a href="https://t.co/0JVcMOhyTe">pic.twitter.com/0JVcMOhyTe</a></p>&mdash; Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) <a href="https://twitter.com/pablohidalgo/status/869298986074726401">May 29, 2017</a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Well, it looks like we've finally got some answers. While Snoke is clearly a humanoid creature, he is not a human. Sorry, all those Vader fans.
The revelation that Snoke is not human is a rather big one, and can eliminate quite a few fan theories from the message boards. And while we've been told that Rian Johnson's The Last Jedi won't necessarily solve the mystery of Snoke, at least we have this tidbit of information to hold us over. Since we can now confirm that the Supreme Leader isn't human, it looks like he likely won't have a familial relationship with any of the other characters. With the parentage of Rey and Finn still very much a mystery, some assumed we'd have a Darth Vader/Luke moment sometime during the new trilogy. Alas, it ain't happening.

Pablo Hidalgo's statement comes to us just a few days after a possible Last Jedi merchandise leak seemed to hint that Snoke might actually be a human. Images have recently suffered that seem to be a Star Destroyer Lego set for The Last Jedi, in which Snoke is a mini figure. He's rocking a new gold look, doesn't appear to be a hologram, and looks pretty human. But Lego figures aren't all that detailed or different based on characters' species, so this doesn't contradict Hidalgo's reveal.

We'll just have to wait for Rian Johnson's The Last Jedi to hit theaters in December, and hopefully bring a few more tidbits about Supreme Leader Snoke's origin. I'm eager to see how they utilize the mysterious villain to move the film's overall plot forward, as well as how they leave more information to be discovered in Episode IX.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi will arrive in theaters on December 16th, 2017. In the meantime, check out our full 2017 release list and plan your next trip to the movies.

And just as an aside, somebody needs to check Lego before they go spoiling the entire movie with their toy releases (if they already haven't). I understand wanting to get the merch out there before the holidays, but they need to be a bit more sly about it for those of us not wanting certain questions answered before we see the film. /rant

I really, really hate the idea of Snoke being Anakin's "creator".

That's just...

terrible.
