Re: SW The Old Republic: Sith Inquisitor

Chuck said we'd see some more Rex Dart action if someone bought the Bounty Hunter, so we are locked in now 8-)

Re: Should Kathleen Kennedy be let go from the Star Wars megaproject?

On one hand, tie-ins are typically explicitly noncanon or semi-canon, so I usually don't have much sympathy for people busy whining about that stuff being contradicted. Sometimes, canon marches on. On the flip side, that's also lost revenue for Disney, and with TLJ making about 2/3 of TFA's gross a...

Trump to launch the United States Space Force

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Df_4GtBVMAA39Fn.jpg Hilarious memes aside. There was an insightful comment on reddit that covered the specifics of what this would actually mean. Trying to format it properly here: Let's read the article: Trump previously floated the idea of a space corps in March in a s...

Re: Should Kathleen Kennedy be let go from the Star Wars megaproject?

When TFA came out, I was ready to like Rey. I was hoping that with her being a scavenger that we'd get a different but interesting character. But she ended up being not all that interesting, largely because there wasn't much to her aside from being a bit too perfect. There was no drama, and even as...

Re: TNG - Marina Sirtis talks about the costume design

Mass Effect 2 has a male Alien specifically designed to titillate those of the feminine persuasion. Right down to his bad boy persona, tragic backstory and harsh exterior hiding a sensitive soul. Face is a bit like the fish from The Shape of Water. Oh, and his perfectly sculpted torso is not covered...

Re: SW The Old Republic: Sith Inquisitor

My favorite part; In one thousand years, not a single Sith has thought of zapping it with lightning. I think they actually cover that later in the game, others had tried it before but the Inquisitor's blood ties to spoiler: Lord Kallig made it possible. I found it interesting to discover Chuck got ...

Re: Should Kathleen Kennedy be let go from the Star Wars megaproject?

Life must be harsh in SJland if you have to put this out there beforehand. You were only interested in a new trilogy if the Jedi is woman, because... Poliktcs? You are a lesbian and want to fall in love with the lead? What is your deal? I've just handed out a warning in the Discovery thread for sim...

Re: Should Kathleen Kennedy be let go from the Star Wars megaproject?

Overall, though, I've seen more 60%/40% positive reactions. Bad, but not THAT bad. You could put it down to my social circles being in the UK and though the SWTOR group is extremely diverse and international, they were all part of the EU Star Wars fandom. I had a quick look at box office mojo to se...

We return to the galaxy far, far away, as a slave is drafted into the order of the Sith - ultimate power, or death. Either way, you stop being a slave, so it's all good.

Re: Should Kathleen Kennedy be let go from the Star Wars megaproject?

I remember when a few racists made it impossible to call Ghostbusters a structurally incompetent mess with lazy writing, but what happened with the ending to ME3 other than most of the fanbase revolting against that railroaded, nonsensical pile of shit? (also, MY version would've involved Shep's sq...
