Yeah, but actually likable. 

It’s freaking Jeff goldblum. I think you just summarized the whole guy.  Except he’s a whiz piano player.  There.  Complete.

Goldblum is always a delight when he’s on Conan.  

Just listened to his episode of Conan O’Brien needs a friend last night - few people are as truly magically bizarre as those two goofballs when put in the same room as each other. I usually dislike podcasts, and this was one of the most enjoyable 55 minutes of media I've had the pleasure to witness.

nuance, my dear, nuance. Confused is like “huh what is going on I just don’t.... bwuh?!”
bemused is like “uh. What.”
befuddled is like when you learn your 80 year old mother just joined a naked yoga club “ehhhhhh??”
while nonplussed is that your slobby ex boyfriend with worrying body odour just got engaged with a

We’ve just witnessed a classy guy say “I don’t give a shit” without it sounding the least bit offensive. 

You saying this as if people behind the movie somehow responsible for all of this. I’m too then? Because I’m from Russia. Would you like to tell me how bad and shitty I am just because I was born here? 

Russian sci-fi generally is. 

And, if you read his background in the elegant Shatterpoint and understand the legacy if Vaapad/Juyo (Windu’s style) then you see that he represents anything but order.

My GF was working at a camera store and an old Graflex flash handle came it as part of a lot of old photo equipment. She knew its importance immediately and bought it for my birthday.

I must disagree with Windu’s placement on the list, his saber was gorgeous and the second you see it it’s clear he’s on another level. just like with darth maul’s double bladed lightsaber the second windu flicks his on and it’s purple you go “Oh Shit this motherfucker just walked off a level 20 campaign to save the

Yes, I am seething at this. Proof JJ Abrams hates Artoo.  Now that the astromech doesn’t require a human inside it, they reduce it to appear only in cameos.  Fuck that.  R2-D2 has saved the heroes asses more times than the Force.  But Hasbro must be happy with yet another new droid.

So it’s actually that they are going to take a thing called a Motherbox into some weird liquid in the death star throne room and resurrect Luke but also accidentally resurrect the emperor, but then also it turns out Vader is also resurrected, but Vader has no memory, so Luke takes him to the old family moisture farm

The plot of this movie is actually a murder mystery - the opening scene is Rey and Finn coming finding R2D2 and C3PO in a room in the main rebel base, but R2D2 has been dismantled and damaged beyond repair. The film then follows the heroes as they try to track down R2's killer, only to be killed themselves, one by

The thing is, if they walk back everything that happened in VIII, it would be because of fan pressure, which would make the climactic piece of the nonology (maybe not a word), a big piece of fan service. That is not what I want. I can find fan fiction that repeats the tropes of eps IV-VI if I need to. Add to that the

There’s some precedent. In one of the new Thrawn novels (Alliances), Thrawn meets Anakin, and is initially taken aback by the surname “Skywalker” as the Chiss use young Force-sensitive girls to navigate through hyperspace. They refer those individuals as “Sky-walkers”. Thrawn eventually allows Anakin to pilot the

SW Twitter is on fire today:

My gut reaction to hearing the title “Rise of Skywalker” was that Rey would start a new order of Force users - somewhere in the middle of the Jedi and the Sith - called the Skywalkers.

I assume Palpy’s ghost is just hanging around the Death Star remnants and he hasn’t just been alive this whole time. Because if he is alive, then that would be extremely stupid and a lazy cop-out.

So they are hunting down Palpatine’s horcruxes?
