Guest El Chalupacabra Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 That said, while Qui-Gon was cool and he held TPM together as best he could, Qui-gon as a character was never needed. He was shoe-horned into a story in place of Yoda because the FX needed to have Yoda carry a movie didn't exist at the time. His part of the mythos, finding Anakin, has been seen. I don't think he has a lot to contribute to the story beyond that.For the most part, I don't disagree, but I think especially when they specifically mention Qui Gon in ROTS, it would have been nice to see his force ghost, even if briefly. If they make an Obi Wan movie, I think it will be a glaring omission if they don't depict Obi Wan talking to Qui Gon's ghost, at least once. Is it needed? Maybe not, but something I think should be seen in a movie, since he was referenced in ROTS. And with today's technology, they don't need Neeson, just his permission to generate him via CGI. They could even hire a sound a like voice actor. I personally have seen enough of the Republic era Jedi doing Jedi things. That well is dry.Mostly agree, but still down for an Obi Wan movie, set between Eps 3 and 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good God a Bear Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I don't know about you guys but I don't break out the "Btw I have a daughter and granddaughter I never see" stories until I've at least been with somebody for a week.I KNEW you were older than dirt... I would like to see a movie set around Palpatine becoming an apprentice and how he fucked people over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Human Torch Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Zac Efron is in talks apparently. Judi Dench is being day dreamed about or talks whatever for Mon Mothma.Google for sources.I love the idea of Efron as a Solo kid. I'd pair him with Michelle Trachtenberg for Jacen and Jaina Solo.

The Human Torch Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Efron could be Tom Cruise if people let go of the fact he was in High School Musical. He's a cool guy, he just needs his Top Gun to put him over the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Human Torch Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 My 15yo son just informed me that Zac and Michelle have been in a film together, as father and daughter... guess it was like a time travel make a wish thing. I dunno. Anywho, so yeah obviously it is genius casting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driver Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 He's great on Girls, strange complicated dude. He looks odd too, I have no problem with it if true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Human Torch Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 From what I have seen I think he is poised to be the next Buscemi, more than Goldblum. Cool guy, strange guy, highly distinctive look. Considering they aren't stereotypical, has a surprisingly high female following. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driver Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 People seem to be calling this a sure thing... I guess Variety doesn't normally post casting rumors so the fact they ran with it seems to be giving it some weight. They have to start announcing something soon, they start shooting in a month!

Guest Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Yeah, it seems pretty legit. I suspect that we're going to get a lot of news really fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Human Torch Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 No horse in this race, but I hope it isn't true. I want the actor to come out and explain he started the rumor just like when he was cast as Nightwing opposite Batfleck. I would be a fan for life if this guy could pull that off twice.

Driver Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 AICN was born from TPM spoilers and had about a 50/50 success rate. Since then, he is the #1 target for lies. I faked scripted pages for episode 2 back in the day and he actually ran them. I know the site has grown and is a powerhouse now-- but when it comes to Star Wars scoops from there I am always suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 That's a great story, re: fake script. I don't buy any of it, and I don't think it really matters. If it is a title, it's most likely just a working title that may not mean anything at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Knowing Abrams if it IS the title he'll change it to make us wrong. Or he'll deny it for a year before confirming it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavonis Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 How much relation do working titles usually have to finished product titles? Wasn't ROTJ "Blue Harvest" in production? TAF may be at least descriptive of the plot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Cool Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Pssst, J.J...George isn't calling the shots anymore. You can make the titles good ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavonis Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 On the contrary. Any title that deviates from the established pattern will be considered unusable. With six films in the canon, now is not the time to start doing things right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
