I didn't hate JJ before the sequels, or even before 9.

But the whole mess is his ****ing fault

You should reserve that hate for Kathleen Kennedy

---

Oh, she and Disney get their share, bc they gave JJ so much creative control. What he did with Rey in 7, or what he didn't do, allowed Johnson to do his bull****, which paved the way for Disney to bring JJ back to try and un f-ck everything. Which he couldn't.

This is JJ's fault. I think he made a decent flip and set it for a sequel. Johnson basically **** on all his storylines and made his controversial movie. Then JJ had to pick up all the pieces.

you ever stage an arm chop off scene pic?

Curious. Have Star Wars LEGO's overtaken action figures in sales?

Sine poena nulla lex.

Nice.

Can't say I disagree...

You intermingled Star Wars with the GI Joe's?

I did. And Kenner Star Wars were at extreme disadvantage since GI Joe had the kung fu grip and flexibility. It was like a team of Von Miller's going up against 3 star tu O linemen.

I mixed them too. Bossk was naturally a member of Cobra.

There is no need to pick on my primary and middle school self.

Now I need a safe space...like Hoth.

Truthfully, all my GI Joe's were either burned with WD40 napalm or blown up with firecracker artillery fire. But my SW toys carried too much nostalgia for me as a young person and were kept in relatively good condition and ultimately ended up in cardboard boxes in a closet. Same with my junior high era comic collection.

Good choice too. During college I sold off those comics for beer money. And about a week after I graduated from A&M, my broke ass retrieved those boxes of SW toys and sold them at some nerd store in Dallas for around $1000. Maybe less, can't recall for sure.

Both my kids love/loved Legos, in particular Lego SW. So back when they were little I started collecting SW Legos here and there. Over the years we've built up quite a collection of unopened sets. I turned all of it over to the management of my older son and who knows, maybe he'll cash them out for beer money at some point too.

Circle of Life sh** Simba!

Right there with you. So disappointing. We could have written a better story on this board.

One Christmas, my combination of Star Wars, Transformer, and Gobots (yep, Gobots) good guys were facing a backs-to-the-wall, no-way-out scenario because the bad guys had formed Devastator and had an At-AT guarding the Millenium Falcon to where it couldn't take off. THe only hope remaining would be if Santa, or perhaps my parents as I was slowly deducing, would deliver this guy.



who would be powered by Han, Luke, Leader-1, and Bumblebee to turn the tide. Sure enough he arrived under the tree and the heroes carefully put on his stickers and formed up in this total Voltron rip-off. But as he jumped from the bed onto the floor below, one of his legs got stuck in the railing of my footboard and snapped off cleanly, with no amount of duct tape or super glue able to re-attach it. It was later decided that combination strikeforce comprised of Yoda, Obi-Wan, Kenobi, Mirage, and some of the guys from MASK would show up and save the day instead.

Well, I know who the red shirts were in this strike force.

I wish I could see your picture.

The 80s really were the halcyon days of action figures.

The Lego set doesn't have the twins!?!?! They're slipping!!!!!

Totally fine with 4 good episodes. Quality over quantity.

Maybe they'll be over an hour long, each

I feel like I just watched a puppy find out that Santa Claus isn't real. Poor guy.

Yes, it was beyond obvious. But actually hearing it from Ridley herself - especially after Kennedy said that Palpatine was part of the plan all along - carries a lot more weight, and kind of officially stamps it with the "Disaster" label many had been giving it. It's the confirmation we never had, for seven years, straight from the source. That, and we didn't know the particulars. Actually hearing the different iterations it went through, along with the indecisiveness, is pretty sobering.
