  1. Why didn't Vader use the force to pull the plans from the Rebels in a airlock? In Cloud City Dinning Scene he forced pulled the blaster away from Han's hand. Couldn't he have done the same with the Death Star plans?
  2. To add to this the planet Saw was operating on was a planet whose people we're suppose to feel sad for because their occupied under Imperial martial law. This is where they show us to look at the evil Empire but they have shown the Rebels are also capable of evil actions. This planet has Jedi-friendly monks. The Jedi tried to "take over" the Republic in Episode III and Saw a rebel extremist is based on it. There's plenty of reasons to believe that the planet was rightfully under martial law. Without complete knowledge of prior films or an opening crawl to setup things neither side is shown being very good or very bad. The Imperials are occupying planets and building a super weapon capable of blowing up planets that rebel but they've up against Rebels that are extremist. If the Rebels are all like Saw's group or like that Captain Endor then it is possible to believe that the Empire had a legitimate reason to consider making a super weapon to stop them. Based on their actions in this movie I think we know the real reason why Han Solo came back to help Luke blow up the death stars. The Rebels were going to kill him for knowing too much.
  3. Maybe Vader pulled a muscle in his big scene that causes him to send the Storm Troopers in first in Episode IV. It also explains why the last duel with Obi-wan was so epic. Anyways there's also this.
  4. I was bored during the entire viewing. Phantom Menace was better, from a certain point of view. CGI effects, not the CGI character effects was outstanding. The action scenes were good. Technically is was a well crafted movie. Problem is that the characters had no character and zero chemistry. It is hard to get caught up in the world of make believe, to care whether characters live or die when the characters themselves aren't interesting to watch.

    Pre-order is January 6? I was planning to go out of town to a place without Internet access. Change of plans I'm staying in to pre-order the Spartan!
  6. Well they never showed them courting. There was a time jump and they woke up in bed together.
  7. Does any of these family of characters have jobs? Like they break the law driving over the speed limit and smash cars in order to stop criminals who also drive over the speed limit and smash cars. How do they pay for all of this? Is this a joke or are you a moderator now?

    Max arrived today...and I'm a bit underwhelmed. Maybe my Max excitement level is only high when paired with Milia. The last 3 releases have all been the VF-1. I got a nice VF-1 squadron forming but each new VF-1 released in a row lowers my excitement level by 5%. I love pizza but even I get tired of having pizza 3 nights in a row. After the 2nd night I want to have meatloaf on the 3rd night. That way I'm excited to have pizza again on the 4th night. They really need to start adding some more variety to the releases again.

    Max passed US Customs. Here's to maybe a Saturday delivery.
  11. They could have killed Saviors by shooting them with the rocket launcher when they were at the gate. Daryl wouldn't have made it but Negan would be gone. Without him the Saviors would breakup.

    They are listed as 1/87 HO Scale by Outland Models. I ordered them from this seller. http://stores.ebay.com/lilyyangstore/_i.html?_nkw=outland+models&submit=Search&_sid=821977619

    Yeah it is the ebay sets. No instructions. Padded envelope no box. A couple cracks but easy to assemble and cheap enough.

    Just finished snapping them together for a quick phone pic.

    So 5 days before Max is supposed to get released?
  20. New computer woes. I hate being force to upgrade all my programs because they decided not to support them anymore. I'm not using all these programs to run a business. I don't use them daily. I paid for an older version years ago and that one is good for me. Windows 10 allows me to install all my old programs but then doesn't recognize them. Now I either have to buy the latest versions, do complicated work around or use my old computer to run them. The color yellow is too strong. I've adjusted settings to lessen the impact of yellow. This fix pictures but in videos yellow is still too strong. Makes everyone look like Spock. Speaking of video my old laptop my screen was wrecked but I swear I had a better picture on video play back. HD doesn't look that HD as it did on my old one. This new one is suppose to have a better everything. Let's talk about settings. It is so hard change settings on Windows 10. I don't find all these improvements to make your experience better to be that good. I keep looking at my computer and wondering why is it doing that and how can I disable that feature or find how to access a previous feature. I Google to see if there's a solution online. First I have to figure out how to convince Windows that I want to use Google and not Bing. On Google I find people like me with the same needs and people telling them that feature been replaced, you can't disable this new feature anymore because they removed that option or you need to go advance settings and start retyping code. On the plus side this new computer is much faster but I'm wasting so much time trying to adjust this thing to my preferred settings and finding that I can't.
  21. Who cares about this B story about Carol? The A story characters split in 2. Show us the characters still going to Hilltop or show us the characters going back to Alexandria.
