Random Star Wars discussion

You know, I never thought about what it’d be like to have James Earl Jones to be a school coach until now.

Star Wars and Marvel shows are coming to disk.
Mando season 1 & 2 first for Star Wars.

I'm a little jazzed for Mando, but I really want Tales Of The Jedi and Visions.

This explains a few things, I think.

TIL Transformers has gotten mixed up with Star Wars, because of course they have.



Yep, that's Han and Chewie, who combine into the Falcon.

Also, TFwiki would like you to know:

Catalog photographers who don't do a lot of Transformers remind me of first day nurse trainees who are all "eeew, I don't wanna touch that. ".
Get in there! This is what you signed on for!

This is your calling, man! What's the issue? I can loan you a Nikon DSLR. I'll even help with explaining aperture and shutter speeds, and light levels. That shit's secondary to knowing where Scorponok's left claw should be in the shot.

Oooh, yeah! He could even do it like Mark Hogancamp does and make it realistic-looking.



I can't think of their names, but there's a couple of folks who take toy cars, set them in dioramas, and photograph them to look real. It isn't necessarily as hard as one might think, either. One of those guys was (he's dead now) really good. Literally, the only way I could tell that his shot of Tuckers was fake was because there'd never been a gathering of Tuckers that large at the location he used.

Too rich for my blood.

Long-lost Star Wars X-Wing model to be auctioned, bids starting at $400,000

I'm pretty sure Star Wars peaked before I was born so...OK.

indeed:

Looking further at the picture, I think the only ones not peaking here are Artoo and Threepio... and I'm not so sure about Threepio.

Artoo seems pretty clearly staring at the ceiling like he’s having a good trip.

Plus that pupil is dilated to Hoth and back.

The originals

The prequels

The sequels

Solo, Rogue One

At least one of the Ewok movies and probably the other one too

Every single one of them

Is better than Spaceballs

Pretty sure it was originally on Usenet but Google is failing me
