Jerk McJerkface posted:Is this from the Courtship of Princess Leia? I don't remember all of it but some highlights are that Solo steals a mind control gun and kidnaps Leia so she won't marry a prince from a previously unknown planet. The same. It was written by Dave Wolverton, who is a Mormon fantasy author. I don't really know much about Mormon theology but I'm told that there was a bit of it in the story. I mainly know of Wolverton because he wrote this fantasy series called Runelords under the pen-name David Farland, and one of the gratuitously violent things that happens in it is that one of the heroes gets his balls ripped off by the main villain, but because the author is a Mormon, he constantly uses "walnuts" as a polite alternative to having all these hardened, grizzled mercenaries saying "balls" (or even "testicles"). Good ol' Walnuts Wolverton.

It's okay though because Prince Generic is purchased as a slave by a sexy redhead witch who takes a bath in front of him and then they fall in love.

It sounds like the entire EU was written by that kid on the playground who, when you were playing superheroes, said his special power was that he had all the other powers of the other heroes combined and was 100x as strong and as cool that everybody else thought was really lame.

i'm like 13 pages behind but lmfao at all the people mocking potential new movie plots and no one thought it fit to bring up Shadows of the Motherfucking Empire, betches. Starring Matthew McConaughey as Dash Rendar Mark Hamill and 10,000 Korean animators as Luke Skywalker Carrie Fisher's estate and 15,000 Korean animators as Princess Leia Tom Hardy and 200 make-up artists as Prince Xizor A lot of paper-mache and styrofoam as Han Solo in carbonite and introducing Dave Chappelle as LEBO and Wilford Brimley as Jabba the Hutt in Star Wars: Episode V 1/2: Shadows of the Empire rated R for REALLY GOOD (extreme violence and gore, adult language, adult situations, gratuitous nudity) Preston Waters fucked around with this message at 05:54 on Jul 8, 2018 |

Any time you see a headline of "[actor] says they would love to be in [movie]" don't read it as some scoop of secret casting info or the like, read it as '[actor] would like a paying job, thanks."

People put way too much of an onus on actors for "choosing" the roles they do. A guys gotta eat and you gotta go where they'll pay you. Outside of a role that endorses something really heinous people really need to stop blaming actors for bad roles (that aren't due to actual acting ability).

exquisite tea posted:Episode 9 is in this weird position where the only new interesting character they really have is Kylo Ren and everybody knows it, yet you have to invent some kind of satisfactory arc for Rey and whatever the hell they're doing with Finn after they've spent all of TLJ spinning wheels. And now they'll have zero OT characters to rely on. If you don't think JJ is gonna have Force Ghost Luke be around to antagonize Kylo and actually finish teaching Rey, I don't know what to tell you.

A number of years ago I went to a convention and attended a spotlight panel for John Rhys Davies and I asked how he ended up being involved in all the projects he had done in his career. His simple answer was "when someone calls my agent the conversation comes down to 'is John working?' and 'would John like to work?'" He also told a story about signing an autograph as Luciano Pavarotti

gently caress yeah. I want 3 things from Lando's appearence... *Chewie gives him a big hug when they meet, and Lando's all like "Easy buddy, not so tight. I'm not as tough as I used to be."  *When they are laying out the risky plan for the final battle in the war room, General Calrissian (in a cape, naturally) says they should go for it. *He and Chewie fly the Falcon in the last mission, with Chewie in the pilot seat. I'd settle for two out of three. Edit: I guess Williams walks with a cane now, Lando with a pimpin' cane with a hidden weapon in it would be my #4. deoju fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Jul 10, 2018 |

He also needs to snatch back the gold Falcon dice. And then put all his capes back in his cape closet.

Given Williams' reported health, I'd wager he is just a cameo. Someone they get some advice from and probably hooks them up with resources or information. Or they'll do the actual awesome thing which is have him pull a crazy swindle, fly the Falcon and blow poo poo up. Because gently caress it.
