bacardimayne Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Guys, I heard a song on the radio today that I didn't recognize, the chorus was Writing On The Wall over and over again. Shazam didn't recognize it, but I'm pretty sure it was Sam Smith, so this had to be the theme song for SPECTRE even though it's not released until the 25th.I'm only half joking - I really did hear a song whose chorus was Writing On The Wall that Shazam didn't recognize why is this in the star wars thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknroll41 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I'm pretty sure BB8 is meant to be the new comic relief, yes, tho I doubt he'll be the slapstick piece of trash that Binks was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bono Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I think BB-8 will be pretty cool. he'll becomedic relief kinda the way R2-D2 is. I'll be he and R2 have a run in or two and become friendly rivals of sorts. Just a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 You know what I just realized? We still know absolutely nothing about Max Von Sydow's role in the film. No voice work in trailers, no images, no products - nothing. I actually forgot he was in it until just now when I was looking at the cast in IMDb. Considering he was fairly played-up when the cast was announced, I'm interested to see what role he plays in the film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That or maybe some sort of Flash back scene. Any other scenario would be really fucking dumb to be honest. If he's in it and comes back from the dead or some shit I'll be pissed off haha! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoSoRose Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I'd be down to see Anakin, Yoda, and Obi-Wan briefly as ghosts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I'd be down to see Anakin, Yoda, and Obi-Wan briefly as ghostsThe problem with Obi-Wan showing up as a force ghost is, they've already retconned Christensen into being Anakin's force ghost in ROTJ on the DVD/Blu Ray releases. Obi-Wan's force ghost in the original trilogy is still Alec Guinness in every edition of Empire and Jedi. It would be jarring to now make Obi-Wan's force ghost Ewan McGreggor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bacardimayne Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 They could do entire ghost spinoffs. Ghost Darth Maul is just chillin, haunting the place on Naboo where he died (fuck you Clone Wars), ghost Obi and ghost Qui-Gon confront him and have a rematch for the ages, this time a ghostly one. All the buys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
