Opening Scene:

(Han and Chewie complete a 30 year search for their lost Falcon.)
Han: Chewie, we're home.
(Han trips heading toward the cockpit, hits his head on a console, and bleeds out.)

A lingering shot, maybe ten minutes in length, of Chewie just passively watching the blood pulse out onto the floor would both be great, and provide the basis for a hit Lego set.

Did not know this..

The Jedi Library from whichever prequel that was is based on the library at trinity college in dublin, which you walk through if you go and see the Book of Kells.

I am getting pretty excited to watch the original trilogy the week before this premieres. I haven't watched them in years.

No, I meant the OT re-release. Although now that I re-read your post I realize you might've just been referring to the special editions.

Yeah, sorry if that wasn't clear. I will likely just watch them on DVD or Blu Ray. I don't really get my panties in a wad about the special editions versus the originals. They're just movies.

Finished watching the original trilogy with the family last weekend. Was good to revisit these films......they're so good. One thing I was wondering - In Jedi Luke tells Leia that she has the force and that in time she'll learn to use it as he has. Does this mean that in The Force Awakens that Leia's a full-on Jedi?

Probably just the touchy feely emotional stuff, since you know, she's a woman.

If the rumors about Luke are correct, I don't see how she could NOT be a Jedi.
