@historyinmemes Han has way too much swagger to need to do a power stance like that.

What are your opinions on Luke's training of Rey?

@RebelScum_MF @justinlasalata We also know that having two Obi-Wan's together at once would cause a catastrophic shift in the space-time continuum...

@keslovar @CultureCrave Imagine if the funds were used to create a creative environment that showcases the love, imagination & artistry involved in movie making from ideas & artwork to model making & special effects etc that could inspire others to want to create something new, original & iconic.

@corellianlegend No – I'd already watched the same movie – with the same plot, characters, ships & weapons – 35yrs prior.

Think it was called something like #StarWars...

@ohhanxiety Is that you Nick!?

[D Conran @d_conran]

@screenrant If you're making a movie version of one of the oldest surviving works of classic literature then it needs to be treated with respect.

If you're making a movie based on Homer's epic and giving it the Marvel treatment then call it something else.. as that's what it is (& will be).

[D Conran @d_conran]

@MementoMori_Act @TheCinesthetic Ancient Greeks and Ethiopians lived, worked & traded with each other.

In Ancient Greek mythology & literature they were idealised, Homer referred to them as the god's 'favourite people' with Andromeda being the mythological princess of Ethiopia.

Bit more than 'known to them'.

@fandompulse Why is building a 'seaworthy ship' and spending $250 million justification for the movie?

People didn't say similar when Kevin Costner made Waterworld (1995)!

[Fandom Pulse @fandompulse]

Christopher Nolan, responding in Time magazine this week to the avalanche of criticism over his Odyssey casting choices:

"Hopefully they'll enjoy the film, even if they don't agree with everything. We had a lot of scientists complain about Interstellar. But you just don't want people to think that you took it on frivolously."

He built a real seaworthy ship, shot entirely on 70mm IMAX, and spent $250 million. Is Nolan being dismissed too quickly, or did his casting choices earn the backlash?

@StarWarsDaily_ "Just watched this movie about a boy living on a desert planet who finds a droid containing secret intel about an evil empire. He meets a couple of smugglers and goes off on an adventure to find he has special powers of an ancient order."

"Sounds like something I'd like to do!"
