I hope there are lots of ewoks in this one. After all - they defeated the Empire, so I imagine they should be quite important in the galaxy post-"Return of the Jedi"... Tongue

Apparently JJ didn't like the ewoks. He apparently doesn't recognise them as the supreme beings in the universe Rolleyes . Damn fool!

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK

RE: Less than 8 hours to go
It's getting very good reviews. As I expected, it's not going to be a perfect masterpiece, but none of the films (nope, not even Empire, shut it) were perfect masterpieces. I'm hoping it plays it pretty safe and simple, gives us a few surprises along the way, and sets a solid foundation on which to bring the franchise into the 21st century proper - for realsies this time, not whatever the hell happened in '99-'05.

Episode 9, guys. Episode 9. If you are going to have Ewoks, you need to do it right and showcase their beautiful singing voices with the necessary gravitas, and that is only possible in the grand finale.

It's disney there will be no grand finale, they'll just run the series into the ground like everything else.

Watch "Dream on silly dreamer".... corporate: "how shall we make more money?" execs: "by outsourcing our work to china and creating franchises out of all our beloved animations" corporate: "I LOVE IT!!"

(edit)OHHHH! I have just enough time to watch it before the movie!! Big GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig Grin

RE: Less than 8 hours to go
Here's the correct quote from "Silly Dreamer"...

Corp: "How can we make people love us again?"

Execs: "Well we could make crappy direct-to-video sequels"

Corp: "LOVE IT!"

Execs (in a 'Sidious' voice): "We could make them cheap in lands far, far, away"

Corp: "LOVE IT!"

Execs: "We could add more management"

Corp: "LOVE IT!"

Execs: "We could sneak them into theatres first" ... "hmmm problems what about this flooding the market and taking the 'event' out of our films?" "We'll make a lot of money"

Corp: "I LOVE IT!"

Well, they've already got 8 and 9 planned plus three spin-offs in the works.

So, yeah, we'll probably all get smothered to death by Star Wars sequels.

I must be one of the few who has no desire to see the new one. I love the original three but think everything since sucked.
