They’ve released the physical copies early in Australia if any of you are interested over there.

Everywhere is closed here so I probably won’t get this for forever

hey - it's all good man - I appreciate that

I feel fine because I basically vented it all out on McP

so clear conscience now

The Trump Method

just get it all out when you feel it, onto someone else

then take a nice sleep

any consolation - I'm fucking not happy right now either

they just put a fucking humvee out on the beach near me

this is like being in the movie Red Dawn now

only far fewer hunks

As with the previous two, the new set of rise of skywalker book is packed with abandoned ideas and all of them would have been amazing. Seeing Rey in her workshop fixing the lightsaber to huxx handing himself over to the rebellion to share his info rather than..

I can’t wait to get this. The other two are so beautiful and jammed full of amazing art and abandoned ideas and script stuff

Holy FUCK this movie looks SPECTACULAR in UHD. This is the kind of transfer that reminds me why I love the format. Some of the best HDR I’ve ever seen.

This is good to hear. Makes me hopeful for the eventual release of the whole saga in the format, though I'm sure they will screw it up.

I think The Last Jedi looks stunning in UHD, happy to hear this one is the same.

I’m in the minority, but I don’t mind the special editions. But if the UHD transfer is poor for all the six-seven first episodes that’s a real missed opportunity.
