Yep, I laughed.

I’ve already ordered and paid for the 4k (with additional blu-ray) version. I think it will be realeased in early April, but for legal download as early as March.

Let's all laugh at Rangers wrote:I've said it before and I'll say it again. A New Hope doesn't really get going until the final battle, same with return of the Jedi. The Empire Strikes Back is more consistent but doesn't really have a big space battle. Episodes 4-6 are great, but they're not the superior films they're made out to be.

I disagree on some of the smaller points here but ultimately, yeah. The thrust of your argument is correct. I think ANH is more than the final battle but that's really the only thing I'd argue.

Depends what you want from the film. It’s all brilliantly built up to that battle but it’s not all just there to service that I don’t think. It would be really poor if it had been.

Excellent, Stip.

i dont make em. i just link em

I just mean, thank you for sharing. That was super enjoyable.

So Johnson has confirmed the mirror in the cave is showing Rey her deepest fear. From a certain point of view

Amazing

Maybe this belongs in the unpopular opinions thread but that Kenobi saber has always been my favorite.

You’re totally right though.
It’s the most truly ergonomic and functional one. Even a cursory glance tells you that.
The Skywalker saber and even Vader saber which has almost identical design, isn’t fit for purpose. But when you’re that powerful it doesn’t matter how good the grip on your hilt is.

They just reworked Obi wans saber from ANH for Luke’s green saber in ROTJ. it’s the same one basically.

What I can’t understand is how the originals from the films got out into private collectors hands.

Watch this.

So basically Anakin is Eddie Vedder in 1992 and wants to meet his son again. Worlds. Collide.

So I can understand stuff like this being let go from ANH cos nobody thought Star Wars would ever be a thing.

But how does a prop like that get into the collector world after ROTJ?
