  1. Just a heads up: I won't be posting anything that I consider to be spoilerish, because I don't want to read any spoilers to begin with. There are set descriptions from what they've been working on in Abu Dhabi out there, along with further reports as to the nature of Harrison Ford's role in Episode 7 which I am simply not touching. If you do want to share this material, please post it in spoiler tags.
  2. It appears that Star Wars 7 production is being hidden under the name "AVCO." It's named after a prominent theater in LA that showed the original Star Wars back in '77. This is similar to how the production of Return of the Jedi used the title Blue Harvest to mask filming activities.
  3. Emulation solves all these issues. It's 2014, not 1994.
  4. Wait, what? I'm not following your logic.
  5. Ugh, reminds me of the first season of TCW.
  6. Word popping up on all the film news sites is that there is one more role yet to be filled/announced, that being another female (long-rumored to be of some relation to Ben Kenobi).
  7. It is if you're a film nut. Max von Sydow, one of the great actors. You really should know who he is, lol. John Boyega established himself in Attack the Block Oscar Isaac has quickly made a name for himself in the past few years, appearing in such films as Drive and Inside Llewyn Davis. He's the real deal. Andy Serkis is Gollum/Smeagol in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. Solid actor. Adam Driver has been in films like Lincoln and Inside Llewyn Davis, and is a regular on the HBO series Girls. He's feel like a bit of a wild card in this cast, and I am not sure what to expect from him. I don't know much about Domhnall Gleeson or Daisy Ridley.
  8. I'm not buying that. Current word going around is they're having their first cast script reading soon.http://www.theforce.net/story/front/Report_Episode_VII_Table_Read_Today_Harrison_Ford_Has_Gigantic_Role_157664.asp
  9. I checked my game discs, and Kyle is still there. Btw, Kotaku has a pretty good write up on the EU/canon shakeup: http://kotaku.com/star-wars-lore-is-changing-heres-what-that-means-1568713480
  10. Denial is not just a river in Egypt. The EU has not been "film canon" in a long, long time--if ever. I have been conscious of this fact since atleast the mid 90s. This really is much ado about nothing. Considering how much of it comes off as little more than poor fanfiction (and it's a whole hell of a lot more of it than some people are willing to admit), this is no great loss. Even though it's really not a loss, since it wasn't canon to begin with.
  11. Hamill, Ford, and Fisher are all confirmed to be in London. The start of principle photography on Episode VII is very close! Interesting tidbit: Hamill is sporting facial hair.
