Meh. Why not just take sedatives to cover the difference?

Is there a Star wars movie coming out?

Yes.

I can only assume that you’re reading this from a long time ago, far far away.

Dunno, last two nights I passed out due to Christmas party excess. As my kidneys and liver are in rehab, I’ll let you know how it goes tonight

Not sure whether to bother with this. Liked the first few all those years ago but they got progressively less interesting and I think I probably slept through the whole of the last one. Once you knew that Darth was Luke’s father it all seemed a bit lame after that. Its a bit like Harry Potter. You can string things out so long but sometimes less is more.

For shame, SOG. For shame.

LOL Pap, I rest my case! And what is with the fishy things?

I am very much in a minority as I thought Return of the Jedi was by far the better of the original 3

Some very positive reviews, but no spoilers, doing the twitter rounds from last night’s premier in LA.

It’s a close run thing for me between Empire and Jedi, with Empire just winning out. I was never one of these fanboys that got up in arms about Ewoks (I was 8 or 9, FFS. Ewoks were alright), but I love the way Darth runs the show in Empire and watching the scoundrel successfully woo the princess is always fun, even if it has led to arguments worldwide.

Often heard in relationships featuring non-geeky female partner.
“I love you”
“I know”
“What do you mean, you fucking know!?”
etc.

Watching the end of A New Hope. I want to give a special shout out to Porkins, who doesn’t last too long in the Death Star run but comes from a fine tradition of giving minor characters politically incorrect names.

Hail Porkins.

Note that JJ Abrams has cast his mate Greg Grunberg in the new movie as an X-Wing pilot and his name is not Porkins. Spoiler alert. Sorry.

Heard the radio say that one guy had camped out to make sure of getting to see the LA premiere last night. Since December 5th :clap:

He already had a ticket! He could’ve rocked up 5 mins before kick off, and strolled in just as easy. Force was weak with that one, IMO.

But did you enjoy the film bear?

Also p.s. nobody considers he was just a) homeless b) mental c) after publicity and instagram followers so he can eventually sell his account to an online casino.

Which Star Wars character are you?

According to your spotify history, if you’re interested. Apparently I’m some little green dude?

What am I if I’ve never used Spotify! Not that I’ve ever had zits anyway, not on this beautiful face!

Just back from the show…

Enjoyable, nostalgic, authentic in the style of the first series. Worth seeing if only to recapture a little bit of your childhood.
