mstrox 6,612 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I have no beef with Morrison, at least not any more than any other actor in those movies. I think it was the worst kind of canon nerd bullshit to replace the original Fett voice (and the original ESB Emperor, and ROTJ Anakin), but that’s a Lucas deal Yavar Moradi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I've never understood the worship of Boba Fett as a character. He's essentially a costume, not a voice - I don't care what accent he has, but Lucas deciding to update it to fit the canon isn't that ridiculous.

The Illustrious Jerry 3,356 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Lucas was building the story on the fly in those cases. It was a constant work in progress as the canon changed with new films. That's not one of the more unreasonable modifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this actor posted a picture of a very slightly bleeding thumb, just to illustrate how hard he worked, today. Get a fucking life. People suffer life-changing injuries, at work, but don't publicise it on social media. Stick your thumb under cold running water (don't encourage it to bleed), dry it with a stirile non-abrasive cloth, stick an Elasterplast on it, and then kindly FUCK OFF BACK TO WORK. Narcissist.

Popular Post Arpy 4,145 Posted January 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2019 @Richard To him it probably carries a lot of meaning, a lot of responsibility and accomplishment. I know many actors do actually push themselves both physically and mentally more than the casual snide remark that they're an 'actor' could tell you. In interviews with Boyega he seems genuinely surprised and thankful to have the role he does in one of the biggest franchises. If you don't like the fact that actors are going to share these moments on social media then unfollow them and quit bitching!

Naïve Old Fart 9,444 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 @Arpy, and @Nick Parker, I hear what both of you are saying, and, to a very large extent, I agree, fully. It's good and right to feel good about doing a full and satisfying day's work. My question is: why advertise it (complete with photograph), on worldwide media? There can be only one answer: to publicise the film. Many, many people do a great day's work, but don't feel the need to share their activities. They go about their work quietly, and with decorum. Yes, I'm cynical. I'm cynical about the apparent need to post these kind of details about one's work. I'm cynical about an organisation that believes that posts such as that will get publicity. Most of all, I'm saddened for the millions of suckers who lap this kind of thing up; who actually get a kick out of seeing a bleeding hand. I know I'm in the minority (of one, it seems) but it's what I think. As for "unfriending, and stop bitching"? Hmm. Sorry. Not gonna happen. It's still my right to express my opinions, on matters, as it is yours. I would never want to dictate what anyone posts. The day that that happens, is the day I leave JWfan.

Arpy 4,145 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 So what if the actors want to publicize this kind of content, that's what they do. It's not a matter of how people should react to these kind of posts, @Richard No one's forcing you to care about it. You say other people don't feel the need to share their lives on social media, but understand that actors have a responsibility to their fanbase and share these posts because people are fascinated by this phenomenon. Ordinary office worker Joe doesn't have millions of followers on social media, most people's lives only have meaning valuable to them. Also, don't you think Boyega sharing that pic might also be to dispel the belief that actors have it easy, like what you were haranguing in the first place?

For me, the blood caught my attention far less than the grime on Boyega's hands did -- which implies that he just finished shooting an exciting scene involving more than just a blaster or lightsaber. And where would anyone get the idea from that tweet that he's complaining or looking for sympathy? There was none of that in there, just a lot of excitement vibe.

mstrox 6,612 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Rogue One and The Last Jedi had their first teasers in April (conveniently timed to go in front of the springtime Marvel release, which in this case would be Avengers). The theatrical trailers followed in October, 2 months prior to release. It’s possible they’ll release something earlier than tradition dictates, since Captain Marvel has a winter release. greenturnedblue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,274 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I'm convinced there's a VFX intensive planet in the plot that we're not privy to (ala Crait in TLJ, Mustafar in ROTS, whatever the junk world in Solo was). Otherwise it's just Spoiler another desert planet, another forest planet and another swamp planet (two of which are literally just a park next to Pinewood studios). Surely JJ wouldn't just make ROTJ 2.0 after the criticism he got for TFA? Then again, maybe the tighter schedule forced their hands. I'll be happy if the Wadi Rum location is Korriban. It would be fitting to have the final showdown there, with Kylo seeking out the wisdom of the Sith elders on their origin planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
