It's all over the net. But here's a quick link to the vanity fair issue on Captain Phasma. Not a fan of the name, nor the fact that it's a chick haha, but the helmet looks bad ass!

I'm really interested to see who the Sith Lord behind the awakening truly is. Sounds like Darth Plagueis could make the most sense. Curious to see if he is still alive, or his spirit is alive, or did he somehow find a way to be reincarnated. We'll see....

Looks too much like a classic Cylon.

It's looking more and more like Disney has completely scrapped the EU. I'm a little disheartened by that notion. It's going to feel like SW has two alternate universes...

So, @BigRedMoe, have you recovered from the unknown mother's Facebook pedo-trolling of you for mollifying her kids while attempting to compose your selfie with Darth Vader (made all the lore challenging, givne your lack of a selfie stick)?

How a Darth Vader selfie showed the worst side of social media

I should have kidnapped her when I had the chance.

Also, Happy Birthday, George Lucas.

George's problem is that he thinks he's handsome, smart, and "all that."

Truth. But my ego might be a little swollen too if I was the creator of one of the best fictional universes ever conceived. So, I'll give him a pass.

Yeah. If we're gonna be hard on a guy for wolfing too many egg cremes, well, we won't be welcome in the deli. Best to let it go. Live and let live. That kinda stuff.

LOL. Simon Pegg.... you cheeky bastard. I hope it's true.

UPDATED: Were ruining a secret Star Wars cameo, but whatever, theyre in a stormtrooper mask Newswire The A.V. Club

LINK CONTAINS SPOILERS


A Compiled Synopsis of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. | MakingStarWars.net

Stumbled upon this today and after much temptation, I broke down and read it. It is basically a summary of the entire movie based on all that's leaked out over several months so MASSIVE SPOILERS.

DO NOT CLICK THE LINK UNLESS YOU WANT TO READ MASSIVE SPOILERS

Figured I'd share for anyone that's interested. I remember reading one for episode 3 that was basically spot on so I figure this will pretty much be the movie as well. I won't comment on it obviously other than to say it should be a good movie with one or two (at least one for sure) HOLY SHIT moments.

That was like a mix of the EU and WTF.

FU. You beat me to it. I was just about to post this

 

[rfjeff9]

I don't know, I have been here before. I went into TPM expecting much and the entire thing got completely ruined by a guy in a fish suit and a freaking two headed race announcer. I can forgive alot, but not that.

I will see the movie, here please take my money. But until proven otherwise, I am still stuck on The Empire Strikes Back as the last good episode.

Star Wars dot com revealed today the name of Andy Serkis' character. He's playing Supreme Leader Snoke.


If you read the spoiler I linked to earlier, it mentions Serkis' character but uses his codename. Reading that along with his confirmed name, its not hard to figure out who he's replacing in the SW universe. Really you could guess from just the name

I saw that earlier along with a pic of him in body capture tech. So it will be interesting to see what his character will look like on screen. Alien, humanoid.... other?

Also saw something last night that Dohmnall Gleeson plays a "bad guy" that ranks somewhere between Ren (Driver) and Snoke(Serkis). Someone spit balled that he may end up being Luke's son still. Kind of doubting that at this point though.

 

[3 & 6 years to go...]

I am trying to stay away from the spoilers, rumors, etc. but it is so hard. I cannot wait for this movie.
