When was the last time a Die Hard movie actually was good? Maybe the second one? And that's pushing it.

Aliens: Colonial Marines morphs into Isolation

He got kicked in the nards. -
Why, just why? Let's say, for the sake of argument, the very idea of a 5th Die Hard movie wasn't enough to scare you away. And then let's say you completely missed the trailer--just didn't see it. Going one step further, let's say you completely missed the word of mouth on Facebook, internet forums, and the like. Taking all of those things out of the equation, IT GOT A 16% ON ROTTEN TOMATOES. Even worse, it was 11% on the day of release. All one has to do is look. You guys kill me.

I thought we had purged you folks in the last thread. Anyway, Az is right--who knows what they plan to do here. These could be little more than cameos, or smallish roles.

Now Keith, you know as well as anyone that the EU means jack squat when it comes to the movies. I wouldn't say I'd be shocked if they carried over stuff from the novels, but I don't expect them to adhear to whatever has taken place in them.

The Latino Review is reporting that Harrison Ford has signed on to once again play Han Solo in Episode VII. Of course, this is just a rumor until we get the official confimation, but it should be noted that TLR is pretty good when it comes to news leaks.

I like it when Keith and I agree on things. Makes us seem civilized. -

The word is out, and that word is BAD. Avoid like the plague. -
When these side-stories were first announced, I think the general assumption was that Disney would do like they had with their Marvel properties; that is, they would tie into the larger sequel trilogy in some way. Even though Solo, Fett, and Yoda are only rumors at this point, it's probably safe to say they are out there because they've been discussed internally. Even if they were just kicking the tires on those story ideas, the Marvel model might not be what we are getting here.

Except they've already announced Lawrenxe Kasdan and Simon Kinberg are writing them. Not to be an ass, but is anyone actually bothering to read any of the news coming out? There is so much conjecture and fan fiction in this thread right now it's practically off topic.

BOMBA!

"the date could be changed if the development process requires it." 2015 still looks fairly reasonable if they aren't sticking to the usual May release. If they want a May release, I would say 2016 is more likely.

But Az, Abrams IS a part of the fanboy legion.

Cameron would be a disaster. This isn't the early 90's anymore.

SW7 is the only thing he is slated to direct after ST2 comes out.
-
He's not writing it. Or plotting it, for that matter. He may not even be involved past Episode VII. This isn't mine, but it amused me (and I quote this with great affection for the choice of director): "These lens flares are too accurate for Sand People; only J.J. Abrams is so precise." Thank the maker!

Haters gonna hate. Everyone is running this story, and we still have yet to get a confirmation on it. Right now all of the players are declining to comment. It's... strange.
-
I'd like to see something more than "because we say so."
-
You mean Miramax? LOL, yes they have. Seriously, can you people not handle simple Internet searches? Besides, when has a Star Wars movie even been rated higher than PG13? WTF are you people looking for? Again, I can't believe we're still having this conversation...

Made by Sony Pictures. I can't believe we're still having this conversation...

"Zack Snyder has come out DENYING any involvement in this. His press person told HOLLYWOOD REPORTER: While he is super flattered because he is a huge fan, Zack is not involved in any way with the new Star Wars. He is currently in post on his two films, Man of Steel and 300: Battle of Artemisia.”

Zack Snyder Is Developing a Star Wars Film Outside the New Trilogy Back in November, the Los Angeles Times reported that Man of Steel and 300 director Zack Snyder said he had no interest in directing the hotly anticipated seventh Star Wars film. But Vulture has learned that while this may be specifically true — he won’t be doing Episode VII — it was a bit of misdirection: He is in fact developing a Star Wars project for Lucasfilm that is set within the series’ galaxy, though parallel to the next trilogy. It will be an as-yet-untitled Jedi epic loosely based on Akira Kurosawa’s 1954 classic Seven Samurai, with the ronin and katana being replaced by the Force-wielding knights and their iconic lightsabers.

You two are so cute together.

Not in the slightest, other than the name. You'll enjoy this movie a lot more if you drop all expectations you have for it being remotely close to any if those influences.

This isn't a spaghetti western. It's not even a western. And Leone had nothing to do with the original Django.
