    I've listened to their Holloween commentary track, but not the Star Wars Commentaries. It was pretty decent, but I got out off the whole Patreon thing after their massive security breach.

    Carrie Fisher thinks banning Princess Leia bikini merchandise is ‘stupid’

    Some (not entirely credible) rumours circulated recently that Disney will be retiring all of its ‘slave Leia’ merchandise in the interests of political correctness.

    In an interview, the Wall Street Journal asked her what she made of this, to which she replied quite simply:

    “I think it’s stupid.”

    She elaborated:

    “The father who flipped out about it, “What am I going to tell my kid about why she’s in that outfit?” Tell them that a giant slug captured me and forced me to wear that stupid outfit, and then I killed him because I didn’t like it. And then I took it off. Backstage.”

    George Lucas to Attend 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Premiere: "He Really Liked It"

    Lucas has expressed some ambivalence about the direction of the new films. In an interview with CBS in November, he said he submitted ideas for the new films but "ultimately, they looked at the stories and they said, 'We want to make something for the fans,'" Lucas said. "People don't actually realize it's actually a soap opera and it's all about family problems — it's not about spaceships. So they decided they didn't want to use those stories, they decided they were going to do their own thing so I decided, 'fine. ... I'll go my way and I let them go their way.'"

    Making something for the fans? What a novel idea.

    The Nerd Awakens!

    Saturday, Dec. 19, 2015
    --12:30 2D Dolby Atmos
    --3:45 3D D-Box Dolby Atmos

    First time I've ever planned to watch a film in the theaters twice in an afternoon.

    Just hope J. J. doesn't step in the midi-chlorians with this one.

    I'm a D-Box virgin--sure hope it doesn't mean this...

    A producer said that he's definitely not in the movie, but I suppose that still won't convince a lot of people.

    I remember getting a Jar Jar action figure when I was 9 before Episode 1 came out. I remember thinking he was going to be a cool warrior guy because he came with a bad ass staff, boy was I wrong.

    I'm also thinking about getting a Captain Phasma figure to sit on my shelf, I guess I haven't grown up at all.

    Friend got me tickets to one of the first showings. Eh. Sorry, just the fan I was when I was a kid.

    Nick the Lounge Singer on SNL is still my favorite part of the Trilogy.
