 JA> More of a Star Wars fan, so as long as there is new Star wars
 JA> content that will get my attention. :-)

 RN> I like them both, but without Luke in the movie, it lacks something.

 JA> I disagree, but I respect that opinion. :-) I'm enjoying Rebels and
 JA> I enjoyed Clone Wars as well, so 'Luke" being a part is not a
 JA> prerequisite for me to enjoy it. :-)

 RN> Opinions vary.  (-:

Yep - else this would be a very boring "me too" thread! LOL




 RN> Han Solo being killed by his own son in the movie

 JA> Plot progression. :-)   Was a 'bummer' in that you hate to see a
 JA> loved character die, but people die in most of the Star Wars
 JA> movies.

 RN> Sort of like the red-shirted crewmen in "Star Trek".

No, I disagree totally. Yes, there are several 'no names' in Star Wars
that get killed (stormtroopers, rebel troopers, Ewoks, droids etc.) but also 
MAIN CHARACTERS! You don't get that often in Star Trek...

Ep IV - Uncle Owen - Aunt Buru - Obi-Wan - Tarkin 
Ep V - actually no one particular in that one - it's the exception :-)
Ep VI - Jabba - Fett - Yoda - Vader
Ep I - Qui Gon
Ep II - Schmi - Jango
Ep III - LIBERTY - Mace - Plo - Grievous - Dooku
Ep VII - Han





 JA> On a related note... Have you seen Rogue One yet?

 RN> No.  I did some searching and found two different ones.  One was 3:27
 RN> hours long (must have had a lot of extras) and the other was about 2:10
 RN> hours.  I'm still deciding which one I would want.

I pre-ordered on iTunes - haven't watched it yet there though.






 RN>     and then the death of
 RN> Carrie Fisher afterward was a blow to the franchise.

 JA> Can't disagree with that, but the show will go on.

 RN> The show MUST go on.

That we can agree on :-)





 RN>      I'm now wondering
 RN> where Rey (Daisy Ridley) got her power of the force from.

 JA> It's a common 'wondering' point. :-) But I'm fine with NO SPOILERS
 JA> and to wait and see it unfold...

 RN> I'll wait since I have no choice.

LOL - same here, ultimately, but again I don't just NOT go looking for
spoilers - I AVOID them! :-)


... Very funny Scotty, now beam down my clothes!
