Gandalf totally can. The light shield that broke the balrog's weapon and the light from the staff are all sfx, but falling faster than a freefalling sword with a ten second head start? That fucker's magic.
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

I didn't even like Firefly/Serenity all that much, and I would cheerfully pay dollars to watch a series that was River Tam fighting different people every week.

You are not alone.


She would have made a great Sorry/Apsalar if a film had been made a few years ago.

Okay, so Kevin Hearne's new book HEIR TO THE JEDI (takes place after ANH) appears to make Kylo Ren's Crossguard lightsaber easier to understand.

http://www.hitfix.co...uard-lightsaber

Three crystals within the saber Luke has in the book, which if I'm not mistaken is Anakin's last one from ROTS (if not I'm willing to be corrected)...which means that Kylo Ren's crossguard saber almost certainly would have three itself to produce what we are seeing. It doens't put to rest the arguemnt of why it was constructed that way, or how it would work/not work...but it at least puts to rest the innards of the thing and how the original thought of it NEEDING to be split three ways through one crystal...it doesn't, it has three.

The lightsaber Luke carries is indeed Anakin's from ROTS; however, (minor spoiler)

Not that that fact refutes anything you said.
OK, I think I got it, but just in case, can you say the whole thing over again? I wasn't really listening.

Cool, I was unaware of that.

It's official. Title for 1st stand alone film is Rouge One set for Dec 16, 2016.


And stars Felicity Jones so far.

Also some concept art showed at a recent event and even though we all associate "rogue" with Rogue Squadron...there was not an x-wing or pilot in sight.

Oh, and it will be the first film without a John Williams score, as Alexandre Desplat has been chosen to score it.

A source tells me that's because this movie will actually be a fictionalization of Sarah Palin's book Going Rogue. Felicity will play a thoroughly unqualified but incredibly popular candidate for Supreme Chancellor. Spoiler alert - she's a Sith.

You really do not want to be sitting toward the front of the theater without a raincoat and hat.

It would seem prudent not to. Indeed.

Screw you all, and have a nice day!

The next teaser trailer (which will be appearing May 1st with AGE OF ULTRON...and presumably online as well) has a point form of what we will apparently see from MakingStarWars.com

spoilered for those that want to see it fresh.

Since the Star Wars Celebration panel is happening...the info might start coming fast and furious today. As such, he is a poster with Kylo Ren, Chrome tropper Captain Phasma (rumoured to be Brienne of Tarth's Gwendoline Christie)...and what appears to be a new/updated Imperial Insignia? Also, rumour is that the new teaser trailer drops at Celebration...I'm keeping an eye out for leaks.

Update: Here is the livepanel stream link which starts in EDIT: Starts at 10AM Pacific time which is about 1hr15min from now. (heh, prior to the panel going live they are playing score music...it's getting me in the mood)

Apparently the teaser they show WILL be on the stream. Dunno if that's accurate though.
