This is really the headline news. Squee levels rapidly approaching transonic.

You know this whole thing came about because Dipper and Renaldo were on the same forum somewhere.

I’m guessing there’s already a Wookiepedia entry explaining it.

10/10, would pay to see Bergman Star Wars.

Good, now I don’t have to post it.

IIRC, there was an X-wing pilot at Yavin named John.

How many Dark Side points do I get for drop-kicking a child?

I wonder if they’ll have Gillian Anderson do a turn as Scully instead of Lucy...

That’d undoubtedly be Media.

The orange looks to be reflected from the bolts tearing it up, not the coloration of the white panels.

It the A-wing was introduced during the OT, then it’s no older than much of the US military’s airplane inventory.

Was that in one of the Wendig novels?

Oh, that’s easy--they want to get some of that Discovery from 2001 feel of “engines are dangerous, let’s keep them at arms’ length.”
