    That sounds bloody awful.

    The rebels disband after destroying the second death star??? What?



    REBEL LEADER: "Ah feck it, we'll be grand...sure we blew up their auld Death Star."

    REBEL PILOT: "But, they could build another. They've already built two!"

    REBEL LEADER: "SHUT UP YOU, we'll be grand!"


    Meanwhile, across the galaxy...

    EMPIRE BOSS (Newly promoted): "Well, that's plan A and plan B buggered. TWO bleedin' Death Stars blown to pieces."

    EMPIRE WEAPONS ENGINEER: "Well...Joe's been working on a real doozy. if you think those Death Stars were great, you should go down to the workshop and have a look at what he has in mind."

    It seems to be leaking out to other websites now and still no word from JJ if it's legit. If that's the real synopsis then they need to turn the ship around. Almost everyone I've linked to it has said, "You're winding me up, innit?"

    I'm no Star Wars fan or expert, but the notion that the Rebels disband and that Han, Luke and Leia part ways (and never see each other again) is very much contradicting everything that the "expanded universe" of George Lucas sanctioned books has already deemed as canon.

    In many ways, what happens after the last Star Wars film is already set in stone. Han marries Leia, Luke forms the New Jedi Order and the Rebels found the New Republic. Even if this film is huge, and will probably tell a new story altogether, they will have to tell a store that doesn't contradict that stuff.

    Nice little interview with Mark Hamill - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-28466562

    Have to say, seems like a really nice guy!

    Abrams, Kasdan, and Kennedy have all stated that they're completely ignoring the EU and going in their own direction.

    What I read wasn't that they were gonna ignore it, but rather that they weren't going to take into consideration the EU plotlines when writing this one.
    I very much doubt they will write an adventure that will contradict the EU, considering the amount of merchandise and millions that's been poured into that - and still is.

    My friend mentioned how a few weeks back he was at Pinewood when they craned in a full sized tie fighter. It was clearly damaged and was put into a set seemingly making it look like it had crashed.

    His said it was amazing to be standing there as a full sized tie fighter "flew" through the air

    Mark Hamill's son recently posted this picture of the Jedi Knight in front of one of the film's sound stages.

    ep7-studio-656.jpg

    He looks like he's gotten into good shape for his age and I really hope he keeps that awesome beard for the film. I'm assuming he will, but with the recent pause in filming because of Ford's injury, who knows? I guess it'd be a nice bit of continuity for him to have a beard as an older Jedi, like Obi Wan and Qui Gon. If he does keep the beard, it helps make him look like a badass knight rather than an aging actor trying to relive his glory days. I certainly wouldn't want to mess with a guy looking like he does in that picture...

    Yep, I dig the bearded look too. Definitely gives his facer a meaner, sharper look.

    I like the new stormtrooper helmets. Some of the negative responses to it are hilariously stupid... "The empire was broken. How could they afford new helmets? 30 years is not enough time to warrant a change."
