I always assumed not wanting to give away the reveal, but it could be maybe not wanting to explain a good guy turning bad. In the short stories that we have that come from ROTS - Anakin's turn is completely omitted from the story. In Empire, it leaves out that Vader is Luke's dad, though it does have them fight.

interesting. I'm going to guess he's not going going to have a enthusiastic and optimistic role.
Any chance of there being Jedi in this? Nolte would play a better jaded knight/master than Hamill
Wow.
The future of Star Wars is on television.

Yep...
- Favreau showrunning The Mandalorian.
- Schiff showrunning the Cassian Andor series.
- Even Benioff & Weiss (the hottest showrunners in town) are heading up the new theatrical series.

He's one of those 70's actors whose stardom is kind of hard to understand today. I guess he was like a less-rugged, slightly more intelligible Kris Kristofferson?Quote:

Because in the late 70's you could save up 5 or 6 proof of purchases from the action figures and send them off to some mysterious Kenner toys address and months and months and f'ing months later, they'd send you a special Boba Fett action figure in the mail. The figure was a super big deal as a sort of a sneak peak to ESB which, you know, back then we didn't get jack sh** for movie media. It was actually pretty brilliant on Lucasfilm/Kenner's part to whip about 10 million American boys into a frenzy.Satellite of Love said:You should read Tales of the Bounty Hunters.

The figure had a little spring propelled rocket that came out of there about 27,000 feet per second and could stun a charging bull rhino. Urban legend was that some kid in Ohio or Iowa or someplace got one shot into his mouth and it blew out the back of his skull like a suppressed 45 ACP round in a mob execution.
That toy became the crown jewel of every Star Wars memorabilia/toy collection and overnight Boba Fett became the most bad ass motorfinger in the galaxy.
While advertised with the shooting rocket, the toy did NOT have one. Maybe the biggest example of the Mandela Effect in all of fandom!
I had Battlestar Galactica tous that had the firing rockets. They changed the shape of the rockets on later releases so that they wouldn't fire. They would just kind of pop up a few mm.
Here is the after they changed them.
Here is a terrible video that provides context and show mattels reaction. It is a terribly boring video

I hope we meet Cassian's mentor, the man who taught him how to murder people who can't climb walls.

the baby thing kind of sounds like The Professional. Generally don't like babies in movies\series.
the large lady thing could be code for a female Hutt
changing armor .... duh, i'll have to get the different version of figures.
all in all, still very interested.
Actually the lawyers killed it before it was ever put into production. 4 exist and one collector has 3 of them (IIRC from the Netflix "The Toys that Made Us" series).Urban Ag said:Because in the late 70's you could save up 5 or 6 proof of purchases from the action figures and send them off to some mysterious Kenner toys address and months and months and f'ing months later, they'd send you a special Boba Fett action figure in the mail.

I like my recollection of events from 1978 better
Great Netflix series if you're of Star Wars age.

An all star cast, yet people on this board will nitpick the content to death.
I was thinking more like Lone Wolf and Cub, which could be pretty neat.Flashdiaz said:Interesting...twilly said:

Bout tree fiddy.
Wouldn't be shocked if it goes for 1/4 mil.
I think it will easily go for much more than that... there are some RICH StarNerds out there.wangus12 said:

Maybe a short little BTS type of promotion video with JJ talking and some shots from production.
So the most exciting thing about Episode 9 is that the last guy f'd up so badly that literally no one cares about this story or these characters. It's exciting, it's like having a blank canvas to start from. This is probably how George felt back in 75.
I feel like Ghost-luke is going to be used ALOT to try to explain why RJ/TLJ did what it did...Urban Ag said:

there's going to be a lot of rebuilding and repairing.
I already the Frozen 2 footage. It was the post credit scene in Ralph Wrecks the Internet!
