    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Well according to some merchandising licensees they've been told that Lando won't be coming back in ep7 but he'll be back in ep8 so get those injection molds of Billy Dee updated with his old-ass face.

    Not you. Lando is patriot and a hero. Although Lando is apparently "problematic" because he's a bootstrapping capitalist entrepreneur with assimilationist tendencies. As we speak they're prolly rounding up hundreds of alien women that they can convince into coming forward with fabricated...

    That's IF Rey is Luke's daughter instead of just an extraordinarily gifted youngling. The fact that Kylo saves her (and kills a knight of ren while saving her) does tend to suggest a closer link between them than just compassion for a gifted padawan. Thing is, if Rey is Luke's daughter then...

    What was so eye-rolling about that? They can't even keep the Chinese from demoting Mace Dindu beneath BB8 on their posters, you think they'd ever allow a gay mexican starfighter pilot hero in their PG-rated 4-billion-dollar tentpole franchise?

    Disney would never allow a gay mexican in a Disney-branded movie. Least of all one they just spent 4 billion dollars securing the rights to. Mace Dindu is already a stretch for them.

    Yep, it's her: Which means they must've filmed all her scenes with Leia and the Senate but CUT THOSE OUT. As far as I know that scene is the only scene we see her in the entire movie. Kinda sucks since all her scenes are the ones that establish the political situation 30 years after...

    Yeah actually. Leia refused to go to the New Republic with her fears about the rise of the First Order because she felt she would be "disappeared" or have an accident if she showed up in the Senate. That's one of the scenes they cut. It was definitely political-talk of the sort ppl raged at...

    About finished with the novelization now. What's interesting is that for the most part it's shot-per-shot and line-per-line identical with the movie. So those scenes that were in the book that weren't in the movie must've been in the uncut version of the movie that Alan Dean Foster saw while...

    Well posters and trailers are heavily influenced by screenings and focus groups so it's pretty representative of their respective markets. Shrinking Mace Dindu is a no-brainer, but why did they turn Kylo Ren to face forward and triple BB-8 in size:

    TFA won't do well in China because of the black hero. They're not racists, it's just that they culturally associate blackness with dirtiness and dishonesty. When the Chinese found out Zoe Saldana was black, Avatar's box office immediately got schlonged.

    Yeah his brief exchange with his Prince Ben Solo, shortly before his lordship cut him down, shows that deferential but familiar tone even while expressing his disappointment at what Kylo Ren has turned into.

    If you'd just go ahead and switch to a career sucking cocks, you'd make that much money in about six total hours. Of course it'd be six hours with literal cocks in your mouth, but it's way better than sixty hours with figurative cocks in your mouth.

    Yeah I'm halfway through the novelization of the movie now, it's clear that Kylo saves young Ren from one of the more overzealous Knights of Ren. Here's the sequence in the movie: In fact, it's actually one of several callbacks to Kylo's personality that we later learn when Rey reveals...

    It made for a great trailer, that's all. Maybe the Maz scene ends up in the bluray but between now and that bluray's release the theatrical release is all that really matters. There's supposedly more in the novelization and the companion anthology book tho.

    Abrams said 20-30 mins were cut from the theatrical release, and it really shows in the early pacing of the movie. I suspect a lot of cut scenes must've been from the TIE fighter crash and probably a lot of stuff from Maz Kanata's cantina/palace though, since those felt pared down to almost...

    Yeah that's what I thought earlier. Definitely sounds more like Max von Sydow wearing an armored helmet than Kylo Ren with his mask. Either way it does seem like Kylo saves her and sends her to Jakku. Their banter at the beginning even supports that familiarity.

    Rey's theme is memorable but kinda---weak I dunno. It sounds like something from a JRPG: It's maybe too delicate? Definitely felt meh in the movie by itself, but when her melody was merged with the main theme during the duel it wasn't bad. The version of it at the end was pretty good...

    I agree it's too obvious. Plus if Luke is Rey's father, then whatever happened with her mother could very easily explain why he left the Jedi, his kid and the galaxy behind to become a recluse. Maybe it turns out she was a sith spy (IE: Mara Jade) or some other kind of traitor or even a...
