Star Wars Anthology shit talk (Rogue One, Young Solo, TBD)

the comics lend credibility to this -- Lando ends up accidentally stealing the Emperor's yacht, which is filled with sith artifacts

he was corrupted by them since that time and everything we see in the movies is part of his long game

xp oh yeah I mean it's his dick that was corrupted

in star wars, it takes a possible jedi to make the shot to destroy the death star

in rotj, lando (and his dick) are on the lead ship destroying a death star

ok I just can't talk about dicks anymore

fp'd u for quitting vader's dick

yes what about the balls? all that Death Star imagery isn't just metaphor you know

then he mighta needed to talk to a PCP about his prostate

Bothers me that all droids have 4-character names. And R2 units, for example, are all R2-??, which means there can be at most 36 x 36 R2 units in the whole universe, and only 36 x36x36x36=1.7 million robots in the whole universe.

well fuck, that's unravelled the entire tightly-woven fabric of the star wars universe for me

but wait you're assuming that all droids have unique names - maybe 'r2d2' is as common as 'steve' but we don't know because we've only seen one onscreen

phew, faith in star wars restored

The droids introduced in the Darth Vader comic are 0-0-0 and BT-1, which admittedly don't help much.

*doesn't, though admittedly they don't help much either.

According to tvtropes.org, the following heroic droids have been featured in Episode VII and its spinoff media (comics and novels) so far:

C3-PO
R2-D2
BB-8
PZ-4CO
R2-KT
GA-97
PZ-99
CO-34
2-MED-2
VL-44
R0-4L0
R2-HA
O-R10N
R4
N1-ZX

Surpised that Y0-L0 and B0-0B5 haven't yet shown up.

Guess moisture farmers can't afford personalised droids

4L-0K0

F-H8RS

important trench location info

trenchant building meter data

the death star computer animation being completely wrong about the superlaser location is classic star wars and i'm glad george didn't fix it

And R2 units, for example, are all R2-??,

Yeah, but the R2 designation is only a subclass of the larger astromech droid class. Like in the graphic below, with only covers the subclasses beginning with R. "Chopper" on Star Wars: Rebels is clearly an astromech, but his designation is C1-10P.

I kind of assumed that R* units were from one vendor and the C* units are from a different one. Different vendors using different nomenclatures for product lines.

hey guys I'm worried about whether or not any more death stars are gonna get blown up

My understanding is that the next standalone movie following the Han Solo one is about the discovery that R2-D2's head has, all along, been one half of a new Death Star terrorizing the micro-universe inhabited by midichlorians.

I wonder if someday they are going to make a star wars movie with two death stars? would be crazy

A new Death Star but, get this, inflatable.

I wonder if someday they are going to make a star wars movie with two death stars? would be crazy

How about two Death Stars connected side by side, attached to a long, cylindrical ram?

I have a pen
I have a death star
UH
Death star pen!

In the Italian version, R2-D2 was C1-P8. Chopper from Rebels is Italian. Duh.

we need an L-R0N droid

L-Ron was already in Justice League International.

How about two Death Stars connected side by side, attached to a long, cylindrical ram?

Nah, go four Death Stars and go this route instead:

Now that I think about it I would pay money to see a Star Wars film begin with the Lucasfilm logo and then:

"In the not too distant future..."

next movie should just be 2 1/2 hours of death stars blowing up other death stars, non-stop exploding death stars w John Williams score

Death Stars stealing each other's schematics. "Many Death Stars exploded to bring us this information."

lol ned

jmm too.

next movie begins with luke poised to accept his lightsaber from rey - as his fingers make contact the camera zooms way out, off the surface of the planet, zooming faster out across the whole star wars universe until it exits a familiar-looking grey metal aperture, pulling back even further until it become clear that everything that happened in the previous seven star wars movies all happened inside one mammoth death star

then the death star explodes and a feature-length episode of supernanny begins

there it is

So I like this movie more and more in retrospect and really looking forward to watching it again at home.

One criticism though is of the 'Rogue One' shuttle itself. Obviously Jyn is the "rogue one" but the design for the namesake shuttle is deeply boring when compared to the shuttle Tyderium or the U-Wing which is I guess the "signature" ship of the film.

it's the everyshuttle

I think the main problem with all the recent shuttles is they don't look like they have cockpits. I know they do, but the glass on them is very small and it almost looks like they're drones.

Also, the wing sweeps are all over the place. Can't tell if it's coming or going.

Chris Miller tweets from the set of the Solo, uh, solo movie. Look at the working title.

Did not know that OSCAR NOMINATED CINEMATOGRAPHER Bradford Young was DP-ing this.
