Newly minted Space Grandpa Han "Yolo" Solo has caught wind of you nefarious nogoodniks trying to RUIN what is arguably the biggest moment of a lot of really sad peoples' lives and HE AIN'T HAPPY. LET 'EM HAVE IT, INDIANA:

quote:

Star Wars: The Force Awakens screenings kick off tonight for the general public, but that hasn't stopped spoiler squads from spreading their fun-ruining fingers across the internet. And in case you're thinking about stomping the surprise for other people, Harrison Ford has a message for you. Don't.

The Star Wars actor, during a chat with BuzzFeed, scolded would-be bigmouths.

"Don't do that, because people are paying to get in and they should experience the movie," he said. "Talk about it later. Please. Don't tell people what happens before they go into the theatre."
https://vine.co/v/imUtMwHbE5w

for decades he has held nothing but utter contempt for this bullshit, but i guess there ARE moneyhats big enough that you'll turn that frown upsidedown and say "more please"

tbh it would have been cool to not know anything going into the movie but that's just kinda one of the cons of having such prolific internet and social media all the time

a good part of the population are bitter assholes who only get joy from trying to ruin other people's good time.

there is no way to enjoy this movie at all because there are OTHER PEOPLE and those OTHER PEOPLE can't just watch a loving movie like star wars and then move on with their lives

it has to embody such a large portion of their character and identity, and if they could get away with it, it'd be a loving religion.

these people are going to stomp into theaters wearing robes and masks and plastic swords and guns and they're going to clap every time a loving laser bolt flies across the screen and act like any dramatic turn on the screen is worthy of reproduction at The Globe

these same people will then go home and get on their computers and tablets and smart phones and then proceed to suck the very essence and marrow out of this god drat thing until there is no more mystery. until there is nothing left to discuss. until they have to - swear to god - make up poo poo to talk about and before you know it, you get dipshit articles like UHMMMMM ACTUALLY WHEN YOU THING ABOUT IT LUKE SKYWALKER IS A JIHADI

these morons are execrable and filthy in the queerest way and deserve to have their poo poo ruined before they bend before their dark altar at the local AMC

it cannot be a thing that they just watch and leave alone. they have to live it.

Interesting factoid (if they made a droid that spat out facts they would call it a factdroid in the Star Wars universe haha well I guess C3P0 is kind of a factdroid in a way):

Kylo Ren's real name is Ben Solo, named after Obi Wan Kenobi (from the previous films, played by Sir Alec Guinness in the original trilogy, and then by Ewan McGregor in the prequels) whose nickname while on Tatooine was Ben Kenobi or Old Ben Kenobi. "Ben" in old Hebrew meant "son of," so really the name "Ben Solo" is literal: Son of Solo. Fascinating!

What a twist that Ben Solo decides, in a complete appeal to the Dark Side of the Force, to murder his own father in cold blood! It's the exact opposite of what Luke does with his own father Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, and parallel's Anakin's own dark decision to murder all those poor Younglings (Jedi children in training) in Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. It's so interesting that Kylo/Ben reveres Darth Vader, his own grandfather (!), not for his ultimate decision to save the universe from the rule of the tyrannical Sith, but for his initial pursuit in supporting the Sith.

Given Kylo/Ben's clear commitment to the Dark Side, as evidenced by murdering his own father, the beloved Han Solo (played by Harrison Ford), I can't wait to find out whether he will face redemption, as his own grandfather did in the face of Luke's commitment to compassion, or damnation, as did Anakin's Sith master Emperor Palpatine/Darth Sidious. Does Kylo/Ben even know of Darth Vader's last act of defiance? What a crushing realization it will be for him to realize that all of his efforts, including murdering his own father, only brought him further misery and shame! Perhaps it will even prompt him to take such drastic action as Vader did when he killed Palpatine (hah please excuse this spoiler, folks), and betray his new master, Supreme Leader Snoke. Guess we'll have to wait for the new episodes in order to find out!

Personally I don't see the enthusiasm as really all that important. All the movies that star wars has made aren't terrific or even near great. They were good for their time I guess but sci fi buddhism that is completely divorced from realism isn't all that interesting to me.

Despite being a pilot, he starred in "Air Force One", which was such a piece of poo poo with the most misleading aviation inaccuracies of any movie involving planes. So gently caress Harrison Ford.
