I'm pretty sure you could sleep with Poe Dameron and it wouldn't be gay

That held up well, primarily on the strength of the 5 principle performances, which bodes well for the rest of the franchise.

You can kill him and not go to jail, too. He'll just turn back up.

Good spot! I'm not sure? Some ppl like the collider guys think there's somethin to the staff. Don't remember it being mentioned from that scene.

They'll be doing a force awakens commentary as they've done with the other films so I'll post the link when it's up.

As to the gravestone, like its actually in the way of the shot. Move him 5 feet to the right and it's not in the shot. I just love the idea he's found the first Jedi temple and that's a grave of one of them or its where he's buried reys mom if they go that way. Now that it seems Laura Dern is nothing to do with that element of the story, could well be Reys moms grave.

Oh cool. The collider Jedi council force awakens commentary is up. These are fun. You cue up your player and watch it with them. The others were great fun. This will be awesome.

Aw huh.

I saw an article the other day about how he's his generation's Al Pacino -- he elevates everything he's in and everyone wants to work with him. On those points, sure, I get the comparison. But, and my Mom would kill me for even implying this in her presence, Oscar Isaac is way fucking cooler than Al Pacino.
