Star Wars Episode VIII

George Lucas would, yes, Disney, maybe.

I didn't have an issue with that.

Neither did Carrie.

Yeah well posthumous praise is a little hard to prove I remember a story that said Gene Roddenberry gave Star Trek six the thumbs up from his wheelchair

She was involved in the process, the movie was in production while she was still alive.

I think he's saying Kathleen Kennedy is willing to lie about that.
Carrie's got a family that could call her out and sue her.
Be kind of a dumb play to make.

Chance that Snoke is, in any way, Anakin/Vader?


Zero.

hell, he's probably this guy...

It's the only way to connect Star Wars with Star Trek.

Raven?

Simon Pegg already connects Star Trek, Star Wars, Doctor Who, and Romero Zombies.

consider the Joruus C'baoth angle. At the end of that fiasco, there was also a Luuke Skywalker running around until Mara Jade ran him through with her lightsaber.
I wouldn't like it, but a Snoke being an Anakin clone could be approached from that angle.

Not good.

I don't think it's meant to be a retread of Empire, and, from the little information given, there's really not strong evidence that it is other than in a very, very general way.

That Rey would seek out Luke was a given, and, since the action in the film can't really be confined to the RebelResistance base, it stands to reason the others would go on some kind of journey. As for a twist? We hope for that in lots of movies.

Not concerned at this time.

Ok now I'm worried.

Nuns

Salamander nuns...

Star Wars delivers a Voyager "Threshold" sequel!

Actually, I think the salamander nuns might be okay. Gotta see them in the context of the film.

I like the "Puppy Penguins".

How about an updated AT-AT and Star Destroyer from Episode VIII?

(The AT-AT looks set for GORILLA warfare.)

C'mon, your 8 year old selves would have bought the shit out of the gorilla walker.
That sumbitch would've been scaling the walls of Castle Greyskull on week one.

Hmmm, I wonder if that Star Destroyer is the sequel-trilogy-universe version of The Reaper from Legends.

That sucker had a mini Death Star laser on it that could crack a planet instead of shattering it.

Pretty big fuckin gun hanging off the bottom of that one there...

Oh, yeah, the APE-T APE-T (see what I did there?) would've caused a toygasm in 8-year-old me that lasted from Christmas to Labor Day.

I'm really liking the updated looks. It doesn't stray too far and still looks like the Star Wars future.

Gorilla Walker looks like it's saying...

"C'mon, Resistance scum. Bring that harpoon and tow cable shit. Skin that smokewagon and see what happens."

I think Gorilla Walker might be the coolest thing I've seen in a loooong time.

And the Star Destroyer has a huge dick.

But enough about Kylo Ren.



Thank you! I'm here all week! Try the veal!
