The Galactic Senate

The poll says "Star Wars Products," so I'm going with the new 8" Darth Vader Black Series Action Figure from Hasbro. The TV stuff doesn't grab me; the prospect of E IX fills me with dread...or revulsion, depending on whether I'm feeling optimistic or pessimistic at the time. Absolutely, that is a S...

Mags I predict a teaser will arrive in 35 days for SW Celebration. How much more news we hear will be anyone guess but probably not much.

I think you're right. Another possibility is that it might drop sooner with an extended trailer for Celebration.

Maybe it’s me getting old, or perhaps something else, but I just have very little interest in IX. Do you guys remember the fun we had making predictions for the PT?! Aye, I remember those times. That's what brought me to the Galactic Senate. This time around I'm not even sure I know the PT well eno...

Principal photography has finished and the wrap party has been held. Some of the cast has posted on Twitter if you want to see the party

Only 10 months (give or take a few days) to the movie's release.

And hopefully we'll get a trailer soon.

Well, that was a bummer: Rian Johnson on Twitter

I'm not a fantasy fan, but I was talked into watching Game of Thrones . I've bingewatched it on HBO and am currently on the last episode of season 6. What is your thoughts on it? I liked it! Though some plot elements were predictable, the series as a whole wasn't. The money put into the series, the...

Yes, that's absolutely true. TFA also broke the rhyming by having a non-Skywalker destroy Starkiller Base (Droid Control Ship - Anakin, Death Star I - Luke, Starkiller Base - Poe). ROTJ broke this rhyming DS 2 by Lando and Wedge. No, it really didn't as it was the rhyming between the trilogies, not...

JJ Abrams managed to rhyme to some degree, but the rhyming between the OT and the ST got shot out of the water with TLJ (that movie rhymes better with Spaceballs ). And as we've discussed in other threads, Abrams/Kasdan took it too far in TFA, too note-for-note and too intrinsic to the backbone of ...

Caught a bit of ROTJ over the weekend, the scene on Endor where Vader and Luke are talking. Luke I think had his back turned and Vader ignited Luke's saber. I thought of the scene in ROTS where Palpatine has his back turned, asking "are you going to kill me?", when Anakin ignited his own saber. Not...

Thank you Magnus, must have been looking in the wrong place You're welcome! :) I watched the second episode of the second season of Star Trek: Discovery yesterday and I must say that I think it was pretty darn good. There were a few annoyances (Tilly, among them), but it's one of the episodes that ...

First episode ot Discovery season two has aired. Not tio bad a few major plot holes in canon. Why did Spok never mention Micheal at all? Yeah, I watched it last Friday. It was decent, but the pod travel sequence was way over the top. The second season will supposedly explain why he never mentioned ...

I think we won't hear anything more until after we hear how well Episode IX did.

Richard E. Grant is playing a familiar character.... who? I can't think what role he could fit into?

There's speculation that he'll appear as Obi-Wan.

Still no official confirmation, but Johnson's trilogy has been canceled according to rumors earlier this year: Cosmic Book News I'm not sure what to feel about this. I'd have likely checked out his trilogy, as it would have been standalone. I honestly would have preferred if they'd just given him t...

2019 is going to be a year during which a whole range of Star Wars television series. Not only will Episode IX be released, but there'll be plenty on television including a seventh season of TCW and the new The Mandalorian and video games. What are you looking forward to the most?

Merry Christmas to all the esteemed members of the Senate!

Maybe it’s me getting old, or perhaps something else, but I just have very little interest in IX. Do you guys remember the fun we had making predictions for the PT?! The only thing that has my interest at all is Favareu’s “The Mandalorian”. Am I the only Senator that feels this way? Do you find my ...

Happy Belated Birthday to us!

I'm not really much a fan of ranking things, but one year on after The Last Jedi was released, I thought it's time to rank the movies. I will rank the movies in two lists: The first list only includes the Saga movies and the other also includes the "A Star Wars Story" movies. Here goes: Saga movies ...

Has anyone been watching the show?

The first episode only released last week here in Oz. It s ok but too early to make a full judgement on the characters.

No, I haven't seen any channel carrying it here in Sweden.

A few episodes of Sopranos.

The live-action series now has a name, The Mandalorian. A synopsis can be found here: The Verge

Seen the set shots, i have. Unimpressive. Looks a similar to Tatooine, but definitely a new planet.

I agree that they're not that impressive, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Jon Favreau's Star Wars television series is rumored to start shooting next week and there are set photos floating around.

The Predator.

Unbelievably disappointing and one of the worst edited films I've watched in a long time. 2/5

The new one? Bummer...
