In my opinion, TPM is juvenile at best and embarrassing at worst. That anybody ranks it as the best of anything is crazy to me. Not passing judgement on anyone's taste here, just expressing my disbelief as a function of how terrible I find TPM to be.
Still better than Attack of the Clones.
Course, it probably helps that I watched it dubbed, and so I was entirely surprised to find that apparently Jar Jar was supposed to have a racist accent, not just sound like a total dumbass?
When the first trailer hit, I was pretty down with the concept of a sentient duck-rabbit creature.
I've long felt that it might be possible to salvage Jar Jar by giving him a different voice, and maybe reworking some of his lines.
But if you asked me who should voice Jar Jar, I couldn't say. Maybe a young Michael J Fox? Make Jar Jar more like an overgrown kid, rather than a dopey idiot.

Like most things in the prequels, the problem is 90% the script. The Jar Jar / Mace Windy buddy cop arc in Clone Wars is great.

Man they are on fucking fire with those trailers. I wasn't even this pumped to see The Force Awakens. Hearing Gareth Edwards talk about being a fan and this is essentially fulfilling a childhood dream. You see it in those trailers.
It seems as though “Rogue One” will truly be a standalone film. According to Empire Magazine, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy announced that no matter how well “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” performs at the box office, there will be no sequel to this particular anthology film.
A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

They go to Disneyworld?
They get conned into being given a location for the Empire's massive trap while getting murdered for no reasons proving that Bothans are the worst spies ever?

They rejected my script because they had "severe concerns" about all the bad guys wearing Captain America outfits, and that it "sends the wrong message" when Gerard Butler stabs them all in the brain with a lightsaber knife.

I'm not a huge fan of that theory, tbh. I'd rather the movie be as self-contained as possible rather than them try and tie it into the major arc. edit: but wow does the final evidence he have above line up too conveniently for it to be anything other than truth
I still think/hope that the majority of the characters in Rogue One
are going to be murderated by Vader in the final minutes as they scramble to get the plans to a terminal that they can use to transmit to Tantive IV

It would be nice for Vader to be a terrible and frightening figure again. Like he was in ANH, instead of a whiney millenial.
The little bits in Rebels were great but not enough. I'd guess he's not going to get all that much screen time in Rogue One however.

AbsoluteZeroThe new film by Quentin KoopantinoRegistered Userregular
I get the feeling they are making a big deal out of Vader being in the film, but really he probably has like 2 minutes of screen time and 3 lines of dialog.
Disney is going to make the Epcot Sphere into the Deathstar.
And they're doing it with digital projectors no less. I can't wait to see how that works. The strange angles and shapes on the surface might actually work to their advantage.

I know somebody with twin girls about that age, who had to come up with Halloween costumes that fit two baby girls with very short hair.
She dressed one up as Cersei Lannister and the other as Eleven from 'Stranger Things'
My wife's family is Lebanese so he came out hairier than me practically.

Gilbert Gottfried could be an inspired choice.
Donglover could have nailed it probably
Bobcat Goldthwait?
Sam Kinison (RIP)?
Also need to put different voices (and names) on the Trade Fed dudes.
Could probably rewrite/remove the Watto character while at it too.

I'd buy it but all those guys would be REALLY fucking old by the new movies. It's possible they are more machine now than man.

I tried to resist. Tried to avoid spoilers.
But I clicked it anyway.
Only to see that it had already been removed.
