The Zoo Awakens

I came here to post that. Nicely done.
#TeamRojo

Nice addition, Sex Panther.

Highlights from JJ Abrams with Jimmy Fallon

seemed like a new commercial of mixed footage; there's really something special about seeing them on TV instead of just on the internet. like it makes it more real. Maz's line is stirring "Child, the belonging you seek is not behind you, it is ahead."

Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton) wrote music for the TFA "cantina scene" which I would assume is when the heroes go visit Maz. Apparently John Williams was too busy scoring the movie to write the alien cantina music, and Miranda had approached JJ (perhaps in jest) about scoring that part of the movie.

Fallon got to see some scenes from the movie back stage. But they only show the October trailer as a clip.

I've staying off this thread for the most part since trailer #3. Really don't want to see/read more at this point. We've got tickets for 12/20, City Lights, Georgetown, TX. Two families going to grill at our place then go see it. 20 days away. Damn. Time really flies by. Then seeing it again with the family on the west coast right after Christmas. Man, so excited.

Another Gtown Ag... Right on!

And yes, it's indeed Star Wars month. In a little over 2 weeks we get to see a new Star Wars movie. It's sorta like when Rocky Balboa came out a few years ago and they used the line "I can't believe we are moments away from a Rocky Balboa fight!" Awesome!

Thought we could make December a bit of a celebration month (not that the other months haven't been) with some lists of favorites and such. I'll call them Pick-3s for lack of a better term.

First up - pick your favorite 3 Star Wars music pieces. This wiki link has a list of all of them with their real titles which should make it easier. I'll post my own after debating them for somewhere between the next 5 minutes and 5 hours.

Not sure what happened on my last post.

1. Duel of the Fates
2. Force Theme (Binary Sunset)
3. Across the Stars

Why'd you have to make it three? Top 5 would've been tough enough. Imperial March is a very close 4th; was tough picking between those two for me.

Finally got an official release in China for January 9.

All but guaranteed to break $2 billion now.

Dangit, I was going to make a joke about you making DotF first, and I forgot it! Curses!

Anakin's Betrayal
The Return of the Jedi
The City in the Clouds

1. Clash of Lightsabers
2. Battle of Heroes
3. Duel of Fates
4. Imperial March

Does this thread make it to 10K before the premiere?

---

According to Muck, we're averaging a page every 11 hours, which comes out to 3.18 posts/hour.

Right now we're ~620 posts short of 10k.

At the current rate, we'll reach 10k posts in 194 hours, or 8 days.

---

I'm not sure who's math was off, mine or Muck's. Or if the rate dropped significantly since his post. Still got at least 235 posts to go.

An oldie but a goodie!

People with taste

1. Force Theme
2. Duel of the Fates
3. Across the Stars

Very close 4th: Yoda's Theme (I actually have this one on my iPod and listen to it before soccer games)

That was my 5th.

You now have a reason to go to Omaha.

Never thought I'd be jealous of Omaha, Nebraska.

Reminder that Harrison Ford is doing the talk show rounds today. Doing a couple of the morning talk shows and Jimmy Fallon tonight.

My 3

1) Tales of a Jedi Knight / Learn About the Force
2) The Throne Room and End Titles
3) Yoda and the Force

I wasn't sure if "Force Theme" encompassed all iterations of it, so I specified with Binary Sunset. But Throne Room is my second favorite version of it.

If we can cheat and just "Force Theme" as an umbrella term, it's easily my #1.

Not a big deal for me, but I'd add a spoiler warning for others.

The whole thing is tongue-in-cheek.
