Star Wars 8 shit talk

If you divide iconic stature by talent, he might be.

(Hayden Christensen has no stature.)

fwiw i saw Hamill on B'way 30 years ago, and he was fine.

whatever you think about his performance in the original trilogy - and undoubtedly he does clunk in places - he has delivered some great performances elsewhere so i am genuinely interested to see what he does in the new one

I still am hoping for the scene where he goes "So now Rey, you are... The Last Jedi" and then takes his own head off with a lightsaber

obviously that's why he was so shocked on the script direction

i hope he does it in the opening 30 seconds

that would be a hell of a ride, albeit insanely short

it would be the greatest troll move of all time, i'm gonna be kinda disappointed if it doesn't happen now

If you look at Snoke's newer pictures, it kind of looks like someone grafted a head on to a different body

And if you look at the head, half of it is pretty screwed up, as if it was injured, or maybe... burned? And he has blue eyes

Now, who do we know of who was already kind of tall, with blue eyes, and had his body really damaged, and burned... but might have had half of his head protected from the fire by.. a helmet?

man I love coming up with the dumbest ideas, it's more fun than real plot speculation

Not only would Breen be the last Jedi he would be like " i INVENTED the force"

The First Order doesn't stand a chance.

I think I'm signing on with "snoke is ezra bridger"

I think that one is just a little less likely than "snoke is jar jar"

the point is to justify the dumbest theory btw

I started with "snoke is darth vader's scorched genitals" and worked backward

It's Abrams: http://www.starwars.com/news/j-j-abrams-to-write-and-direct-star-wars-episode-ix

Gross

can someone remind me if the nerds will by annoyed or overjoyed at this and then i can calibrate my response appropriately

Return of the JJ

annoyed

Back to the future!

Jeeeez

a safe pair of hands i guess but maybe the least inspiring choice short of ron howard

thought and prayers 4 brett ratner obv

At least hopefully Colin Trevorow and Josh Trank have learned some very important lessons from this experience, in that they'll never work again.

It's a tragedy for the trajectory of Star Wars directorship that Garry Marshall and Nora Ephron are no longer with us.

still waiting for a full and frank account of just wtf went on with josh trank's fantastic four, feels like the craziness we've heard about so far might have just been the tip of the iceberg

bring back McG

do we need a Star Wars 9 shit talk thread now

Might as well.

where's McG? is it too late for him to tear this from Abrams? :)

im fine w JJ but it seems like suicide to get the person who wrote Batman V Superman to write this

Yeah, I was just looking up Terrio. Not promising.

if anything kennedy and kasdan have shown they'll murk any director they think isn't toeing their company line so I wouldn't worry too much. I guess its a problem if you hated ep 7 but I thot its fine..

I'm interested in seeing what Abrams will do when not under the specific restriction of "Reassure everyone that we still know how to make a Star Wars".

"I give you...Mega Super 8!"

this. The Force Awakens was great fun, and that's all I ask for from the franchise.

Abrams to direct hour 1, Johnson to direct hour 1.5

why not give it to Sofia Coppola

trailer tomorrow

supposedly extended Luke constipation scene

Tickets on sale tomorrow as well.

how big the spaceball gonna be this time?

Okay, Drafthouse has them on sale at least. Got tickets for Saturday the 16th, much to my surprise. (These last couple of go rounds, I've usually had to wait a week.)

New poster just ahead of the trailer.

I like it although Kylo looks wonky.

Is that a new face below Chewie?

Yeah, that's Kelly Marie Tran's new character, Rose Tico.

Do not watch that if you want to be un-spoiled.

It's true: they show a porg.

Looks cool, but multiple cutesy creatures is a bad omen
