Seems rather binary to lump all fans into either TLJ haters and lovers.

Equal light. Equal dark. Balance.

There isn’t grey area in Star Wars!!!

Joking aside I don’t know. Or care. Just a strange groundswell emerging.
Thought I’d point it out.

Man, good luck with that. It’s never worked out for me since the PT
I got spoiled bad on ROTS, and maybe a few minor ones here and there with the news films, but overall I've been doing OK. It is a dangerous game to play and I realize the risks I take even coming into this forum.

My main point was that I was glad to see people respecting and using the spoiler tag. :thumbsup:
How in the world was ROTS spoiled for you? What was there to spoil? :lol:
I worked at a record store that sold also some books at the time. I remember there being very vivid pictures of Anakin after the lava lit him up like a joint in soem star wars book we received, and this literally weeks before the movie came out.

You were the fun goofy curly haired ginger kid in empire records. I can tell.

My memory is a bit hazy, but I seem to recall reading the novelization of Revenge of the Sith weeks before the film's release.

Everyone says it’s way way more awesome and detailed than the film.

I follow ROTS quotes on twitter and even the short pieces they tweet confirm that

The novelization of ROTS was really good, I remember there being a little more nastiness towards the end of the book.

If this new leak is somewhat true, the beginning of TROS would have made a great addition to episode 8, and create tension in the 2nd film of the trilogy for the big denouement in ep 9.

(not add to TLJ, but modify the movie to fit within this new direction TROS is going)

TIE designer1: you know, we have too many sides on these wings.

TIE designer2: what are you thinking?

TIE designer1: five sides.

TIE designer2: nah, that's not fluid enough.

TIE designer1: four sides?

TIE designer2: ok what are we cavemen inventing the wheel?

TIE designer1: three sides!

TIE designer2: now you're talking. let's add a smaller, vestigial wing on the outside of it because it looks cool.

maybe it's like a car and every few years they tweak the model style and jack up the price
