Whose going to be like a kid in a candy store! I'd say 'have fun', but I guess the words don't need to be said...

I will say that Spiderman is not my most favored, so it's not hitting as hard as say, Captain Marvel. But still, after having such success with the Marvel movies, it's kind of sad that there first real cox-up is from the board room... Greedy bastages.

Good looking Ghost!
-
It looks really good Pengbuzz. Love Bob!
-
Good Wifey!
-
After the Saber, and to get primed for the Float Plane 2 GB on Britmodeller, I'm putting the S6B back on center-table!
-
That looks great! And something you could add on to.

Wow, imagine being so salty as to want to jilt the father of the franchise, and the whole reason they are getting any money based on it in the first place, simply because they want 100%. Even with Lucas' cut, they would still be making mad-money. Instead, they now have a tottering franchise on the verge of just being 'okay...' As to the younger cast, I think they had to be there anyway, not so much for story but for the audience. Like the characters, the originals were getting old and younger audiences identify more with their own age group, so having a new and younger cast seems only normal. -
With you there. I hate puttying and sanding.

Wasn't this scene in TFA..? Oh, right, JJ was behind both scenes... I liked TFA and thought it was a good jumping off point for the trilogy, but yes, JJ doesn't seem to have much of a range of imagination. A quick fix for that would be to have the planetary destruction scenes on a view screen instead - or to try to not reuse the same plot device from movie to movie. A big problem with TLJ was that it was a sequel that appeared to have no prequel. TFA was leading down a different path than TLJ was taken down. I can imagine that Han was always looking for the Falcon, even when doing a cargo run. And if there is anybody capable of finding the Falcon (when she's in flight) then that's him. As to how fast he reached them though, that I got nothing but the same complaint you do. As was stated above, convenience was allowed to override good story telling.
-
There were a couple lines of dialogue about the Falcon not being a 'clean' ship. So, if it can be tracked (because it has a tracking device on it) then Han finding it is not that hard to reconcile.

Real nice!

It all comes back to them not having a strict story arc to follow through the movies. Johnson was literally handed plot threads and told to do whatever he wanted with them, no matter what the intent was in TFA. That's not how you do a series, that's how you do a loosely tied together anthology. In truth, that's where everything got *ucked up.

This is either going to be incredibly epic, or an incredibly epic mess! I'm hoping that only half o these rumors come true, otherwise there won't be any time for the actual story!
-
Thank you! That's an idea, Peng!
-
Considering how hard they got nuked, I doubt it. Axanar is dead, and the only good things that came out of was Prelude, and a cool ship model.

Someone needs work, apparently...
-
And DUN! Some things didn't go so right, but more than enough did! Going to take a week off before I get back to the models, and the Falcon! Model on!
-
At least have it come with the shirt underneath, to make up for lack of arm-pocket. That's half the look right there. Also having Han Solo's face instead of my own...
-
It does look good. But my first question would be, why doesn't she have a clue that 'something' is up? I'm assuming she knows all about this too, esp being as old as she is, so when her whole family just shows up, shouldn't she be suspicious? Or did I just get to the twist end of the movie?
-
Almost finished with the decals. Hit a couple of snags, but I think she looks okay, rather than great. But, still in-process! I'm looking into some new decal sheets for the next one. A little sneak-peak... Model on!
-
Cool! Some nice, quick progress.
-
It was okay. Spoilers from here...
-
Will those turn-tables be motorized?
-
I consider myself more of a dabbler-in-the moment... But thanks!
