Star Wars Misc. Catch-All

DID YOU SAY NINJA?

The bad lip reading videos are so silly and yet I laugh so hard

"I like monkey... You're the monkey."

Mark Hammill is doing the the voice of Han Solo in this one. The previous Star Wars BLRs were pretty random, but there is something extra special about this one. This is the funniest one they've done yet. Though the presidential inauguration one is extremely funny as well.

Reviews found.

Thrawn bought.

I just put Lost Stars on my kindle. Thrawn will be next.

Beginning my Star Wars rewatch of all movies in story order. This was brought on by my buiying R1 yesterday!

New animated shorts series coming out this summer

I'm surprised this hasn't been posted yet.

After you posted, I had this on in the background. (Yesterday's, that you originally linked).

Wasn't long before I saw a camo utili-kilt (on stage!). Didn't know those were still a thing

Wasn't paying attention to what they were talking about because I was on a work call.

And here's the trailer:

I'm most looking forward to / hoping for good further character development of Kylo.

I'm not crying you're crying.

*Also, I totally had not noticed what they made the thumbnail. That is... perfection.

About halfway through, and I keep bouncing between laughing and crying.

How Boba Fett got that dent

Those are great!

Holy sh*t.

But...

Ron Howard Is the Reported Frontrunner to Take Over the Han Solo Film

The world of Star Wars was shook to the core Tuesday afternoon when Lucasfilm announced that Phil Lord and Chris Miller would no longer be directing the Han Solo standalone film. However, there’s already a very famous frontrunner: Ron Howard.

Deadline reports that Howard and co-writer Lawrence Kasdan are both being considered to take over the film, but that Howard is favorite.

This happens, of course, after Lord and Miller left the project due to “creative differences.” In the official announcement, Lucasfilm stated that the film was still on track for its May 2018 release, so they’d need someone to come in pretty quickly and continue the work Lord and Miller had been doing.

Which was a significant amount of work. The duo had been shooting for several months and still had a few weeks left of filming. Most expected some news from the film, possibly even a teaser, to be screened at July’s D23 Expo.

It may be years, but I'd love to know what went down that resulted in their leaving.

Maybe the movie was becoming a bit too much like their previous projects (21 jump street) for what Lucasfilm wants. Lucasfilm has earned my trust so I'm fine with the decisions they make.

Agreed. Kennedy seems to have her hand firmly on the wheel, like Feige does at Marvel. Although they may clash with directors from film to film, they always have to consider the bigger picture.

Variety wrote:

Some insiders believe that while Kennedy wants to make a splash by hiring young indie directors such as Gareth Edwards (“Rogue One: A Star Wars Story”) and Rian Johnson (“Star Wars: The Last Jedi”), she’s ultimately unwilling to empower them to make their own creative decisions.

I'm reminded of George Lucas wanting to hire up-and-comer David Lynch to make Return of the Jedi. Lynch declined because it would be Lucas's production and not his own, and he was right. Directors now are being lured toward Marvel and Star Wars films with the promises of big name recognition and big paydays, but they have to recognize that their creative input is going to be near zero.

Yup. Kathleen Kennedy has been involved in some of the greatest adventure movies ever made.

Also, I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to have a Star Wars film directed by Ron Howard. Little Opie Cunningham gets my vote.

What, like the story of a young farm boy who goes on an adventure with a sarcastic sidekick, and learns at the feet of an old wizard? Written by George Lucas?

This post feels like you are trying to say Willow is NOT a fun movie. Is that what you are saying? Huh? Huh?

I'm fond of "I stole it from a stupid daikini" when certain friends who will get it ask where I bought/found/got something.
