If Abrams screws this up like he did with the "Star Trek" movies he's been behind I will forever refer to him as Jar Jar Abrams!

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost

I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

Those scenes actually made me believe the force was with Hyden Christensen, and he was using it to influence the weak mind of Natalie Portman.

There is no other possible explanation for how the actress in the black swan could possibly have put on a performance like those in episode 2.

Apparently the lightsaber fight(s?) will have a rougher, more aggressive edge to them as opposed the the over-choreographed duels we've seen in the PT. I like the sound of that - two people actively trying to kill each other rather than showing off their skillz to each other Tongue
Makes sense in a post-Jedi world as well, lightsaber combat will most likely have been rebuilt from the ground up after the loss of the Jedi Archives.

I do hope we get to see some glimpses of Coruscant in the new trilogy...provided they don't stick around too long. Visually, it was incredible to look at.

Duuuuuuude, remember that time Yoda got in a light saber battle with Saruman?

This reminded me of that line in Robot Chicken, "I've gotta get that job on Coruscant..." ROFLOL

I did hear, recently, about why that stupid light saber is the way it is - the cross guard, supposedly, isn't supposed to function as a normal sword's cross guard, it's apparently there to vent the excess energy of the saber.

That explanation mollifies me a little but, but I still think it's a rather stupid and otherwise dangerous design.

It is interesting to hear that the fights will be more substance over style this time around. Smile

Kylo Ren's lightsaber design is awesome and anyone who disagrees smells funny, so there.

I do smell like menthol, eucalyptus and echinacea tea right now, but I suspect that has more to do with getting over a cold than with being wrong about what is clearly and objectively a stupid light saber design Wink

Funny, I thought I was picking up overtones of elderberries.
