Everyone posted:Which is sad because now I know there's an alternate dimension of Star Wars with ...and Sean Connery as Wedge Antilles. You could also picture Darth Vader as having an English country accent, since David Prowse, his physical actor, had a regional accent and thought for most of production that he'd be the one voicing Vader going off urban legend. You can hear a bit of his spoken voice in clips like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQFho0_G1VI. Which, I'm not surprised that they replaced his voice honestly, since his voice doesn't have the depth and gravitas associated with Vader at the very least. It's hard to know how it'd be received when you know what it could be, but it doesn't seem nearly as menacing or iconic at the very least.

I always liked that Red Leader was from the southern part of the galaxy. I also oddly remember Pops, the last Y-wing pilot to bite it.

This is a dumb humble brag I've never shared anywhere else because SW threads on SA are bad but I was childhood friends with JEJ's son. We went to the same summer camp and after a couple months of him and I hanging out almost every single day, he was like "Hey my mom says its cool if you sleep over, but you gotta know something first, my dad's in movies so just be cool about it, I dont really like talking about it". I was 15 and he was 17ish. JEJ's wife was a very pale, snow white dove of a woman and his son was just an extremely pasty kid with curly hair and I just thought he was Jewish like me. Anyways he's like "my dad is Darth Vader" and I was like... whatever dude cool, like he meant his dad was a bad guy or a mean dad. I knew he was very wealthy, and went to private school in Poughkeepsie, NY, but I was too young and sheltered to just accept that my very white friend was Mufasa's kid. Anyway Saturday morning he drives over and grabs me and my stuff and we drove an hour out into the country and his house is a huge gated mansion and we park and go inside and James Earl Jones is just sitting at the kitchen table. it's like 11 AM and he's in a wifebeater and black sweats and he's eating a giant bowl of cheerios and watching one of those little kitchen TV's that absolutely everyone had in the 90's. I breeze through the introductions and try not to stare or be too chatty. He doesn't sound like Vader up close, and he's so loving tall, even sitting down, but I have watched The Sandlot like 50 times and i'm just barely not totally starstruck. His wife is getting ready for work and she swoops over to smooch Flynn, their son, on the cheek and tells us not to spend the whole weekend watching anime, and that she made a huge tray of baked mac and chicken wings for us for the weekend so we shouldn't need to order out. To capstone the entire thing in the most surreal way possible, a Verizon commercial pops on the TV and of course its the middle/end of the JEJ ad campaign where he's a cowboy and he watches himself and just grimaces and shakes his head and Flynn's like "i told you astronaut was cooler, you shoulda done astronaut", and then we go upstairs and write Kingdom Hearts fanfiction for the next 16 hours.

Doctor Spaceman posted:Biggs was also a...bigger...character in the novelisation (which was based on the earlier drafts). That's the kind of playground space I'm interested in. Vader in the volcano. Biggs is a thing, way outsized vs what was on screen. Wedge . . . exists. That's like playground metis. I want to contrast that with poo poo we know because of the internet like missing scenes. Or like Bunny guy from the comics. Nobody talked about bunny guy from the comics.

I would have been more impressed if he lived in character as Thulsa Doom and asked you if you knew the riddle of steel. Just say'in.

If I found out a friend of mine used to date a transphobic Nazi yeah I’d have some questions, like “what did they talk about?” or “I wonder what else they have in common?”. It might have been a strictly “hot people loving” scenario but maybe they hung out and exchanged anti-Semitic memes about cancel culture, I dunno.

Isn’t the operative thing here “used to date?” Is there no idea that somebody might have fallen into CHUDdiness later in life? Are we into Calvinist “you’re born CHUD or pure?” Is there now CHUD quantum? You’re allowed one CHUD grandparent, or you’re instantly untouchable? What if you have a CHUD sibling?

Yeah, but there's a difference between "Henry Cavill" and "a friend of mine." One is a person you know in real life, one is a person who plays pretend for a paycheck. I think that's where the confusion over your "processing" remark came from.

That's some prime bullshit to put out there - has Cavill expressed ANY loving bullshit on the level of Carano? Not in the public eye. So why burn him cause he once dated someone then it was broken off? loving childish bullshit. Grow the gently caress up. Maybe call up Jones son and see how he's doing.

Inferior Third Season posted:A bounty hunter that is willing to sit down and have a conversation with his bounty without insisting that he keep his hands in clear view was never going to survive for a second job. The Mandalorian early episodes actually put things in perspective, since most bounty targets are likely to be basically petty crooks, embezzlers or otherwise people who were dumb and/or unlucky enough to get on a wealthy rear end in a top hat's bad side.
