I suggest you put on some headphones, only click on it at home and make sure anyone under 13 is not around. There is a bad word at the end of the video.

Ohhhh....now I get it. Lmao

Been forever since I last watched SpaceBalls. Think I was 10 when my mom first showed me.

Interesting note: Episode VII is not the only time C-3PO had a red left arm. He also has one in Episode II.

yeah what's the story on Jedi ghosts? They didnt use them in prequels or 7 so what's the scoop? It seems safest to leave them out because it would be strange seeing a Liam, Hayden or Ewan ghost in the new films.

[Lt. Brannigan]

I predict that

[Show spoiler]Han Solo

will show up as the most powerful force ghost ever!

Also, I really shouldn't be posting when I am on a sugar high...

Qui-Gon was the first to discover the ability to retain your identity after death. You hear his ghost screaming at Anakin during the tusken raider massacre in AOTC. Yoda reveals to Obi-Wan in ROTS that it's a brand new ability and that he'll teach Obi-Wan how to communicate with Qui-Gon and so that he can learn it.

[Show spoiler]Obi-Wan's ghost voice is in TFA, telling Rey that these are her first steps.

Quite enjoyable film. Better than I was expecting. And this is from a casual fan of the franchise. I'm actually team Star Trek.

Saw this today because I haven't been to the movies in a month and there was nothing else I wanted to see.

I figured, "should I watch the soon-to-be biggest domestic film of all-time in theatres even though I'm not a fan of the franchise? Why the hell not!"

I've only seen the first film, and a prequel or two (all I remember is Yoda fighting and terrible Natalie Portman dialogue) but I loved this film!

We need a Funkopop of BB8 asap.

Just to follow up (now that I'm home at my computer instead of on my phone), I really did love the way they played out the scene with

[Show spoiler]Han & Kylo-Ren.

I really did find myself wondering how it was going to play out.

[Show spoiler]I loved that they played it as though each of them thought that they understood and were in agreement with each other when they both had different understandings of what their perspective on "helping me" was.

I was split 70/30 on which outcome would occur:

[Show spoiler]70% Han would die, 30% Kylo-Ren would have Han TRY to kill him... perhaps as a test.

Ultimately I understood that those were the only 2 potential outcomes.

I was talking about obvious ghosts walking around, not some obscure quick sound bytes.

Gawd, it most just be awful to be a teenage Jedi, and never know when and what you may up to when your deceased master's force ghost appears.

Thanks guys for telling me. It looks so small. The Rey one looks weird too.

TIE fighters don't have life support systems. That's why the pilots wear all the gear.

Poe and Finn would have died once they left the Star Destroyer.

The End.

The older ties did not have Shields or a Hyperdrive either. The newer Ties have both. They would be used for longer runs, so should have life support systems now.

They stole a special forces tie fighter, not a regular one. The special forces fighters have life support, and are designed for long term travel.

How stupid can Hasbro possibly be?

Rey isn't included in the new 'Star Wars' edition of Monopoly


You don't even have to dip your toe into the "they left the woman out" tumblry side of this.

Habro releases a Force Awakens Monopoly set that includes 1 character that isn't in the movie AT ALL, and another that

[Show spoiler]is in it for 5 seconds and doesn't have a single line.

And leave out the 1 character in who the FORCE IS ACTUALLY AWAKENING.

The literal titular character.

I'm the first person to go diversity ballistic when necessary, but this is so glaringly bad that it's just to stupid to actually be malicious or even sexist. It's just plain stupid.

The new board looks like crap anyway (it's a circular Monopoly board for crying out loud!!!!!), I'll stick with my OT Star Wars Monopoly and Phantom Menace one.

I actually kinda like the design of the board. but their choice of figures is odd at best.
