To answer another way. Do you want to see spoiler stuff? If so I can send you links to really cool podcasts and links for sites that get everything way before hand. If you don't want leaks however? Just stay offline.

And as usual I'm not answering the question that's been asked at all.

Now I know why I never got a reply from NASA

It's his is gonna be so totally different than any other Star Wars film it's gonna cause a huge revolt. It won't be appreciated for the brilliance it is by anyone (except me) for about 10/15 years.

Dime, I love you, but how can you say this with all seriousness when you haven't even seen a trailer, only read shit? I know I keep saying Rogue One is "going to be great", but at least I have more than set rumors to go off of.

I fully expect this to be (in the parlance) "less Star Wars" than Rogue One. And I can't wait.

Joss Whedon has come out and said after he saw the rogue one trailer, he wants to direct a Star Wars movie that like R1 is its own thing and unmarried to the saga.


Should Disney sack Colin Trevorrow and replace him with Whedon?
I know it its saga but he knows Star Wars. He'd make an amazing Star Wars film.

My vote is yes immediately.

Thoughts?

Give Joss a shot yes. But only on a Non-Saga film. He should get his own thing.

Totally agree. I'd love to see him get a crack at a new characters, something set between Jedi and Force.

Han and chewie were my first thoughts too.


Maybe it'll happen. They have that fake Han guy signed for three films.
