Even better. I can remember why I used to respect Gerard Butler.

It's to do with the rise of the Persians apparently, not sure if there's any Spartans in it.

Kneel before Xerxes then?

It's his rise to power from what I read.

Well my excitement is slipping away by the second now. :(

Very good chance J.J. Abrams locked down the director's chair for Episode VII. Kinda funny really.

Was just gunna post this. Don't we have a Star Wars thread?

JJ Abrams..... May The Force Live Long and Prosper

A 300yo one, I think.

I dunno. I liked Star Trek, but I haven't cared for everything else he's done.

His style would fit Star Wars, I think.

As long as I can sit through a lightsaber battle without getting blinded by LENS FLARES.

Lens flares is almost certainly gonna be most of the movie, especially since there will be lightsabers.

So apparently in between the episodic movies, there's going to be a film about a pre-New Hope Han Solo and one about Boba Fett.

Hopefully they read over the Han Solo books already written for pointers.

How about a pre-Phantom Menace about Darth Maul then?

Nah. Rather see a young Palpatine in Sith training.

I can see it now. Darth Plagueis finds a 10 year old Palpatine working as a slave on a distant planet, where he dreams of being important and spends his free time pod racing.

I think they meant Princess Diana

Chiwetel Ejiofor simply must be young Lando Calrissian. No argument.

Nah they actually made a book about plagueis and palpatine. He wasn't any slave. Really good book too.

*woosh*

I DIDN'T READ HIS WHOLE POST OKAY?

ANYTHING ELSE YOU PEOPLE WANT TO CRUCIFY ME FOR, YOU FAGGOT CUNT ASSHOLES?

GOD

If you're talking about crucifixion shouldn't it have been "JESUS"?

Anakin was created by either Plaqueuis or Palpatines midichlorian control powers, so Anakin is Jesus.

Dark Horse Comics is going to do an 8-issue miniseries entitled The Star Wars based on an early/rough draft of Star Wars by George Lucas. Featuring "Lazer Swords", Jedi Annikin Starkiller, veteran Jedi General Luke Skywalker, a six-foot tall alien lizard Han Solo, and evil Sith Knights.

I...might buy that.

Sounds like an April 1st joke to me.

It's a joke either way, really.
