Popular Post nightscape94 965 Posted April 26, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2016 Fans should stop making theories. They're largely terrible and mostly idiotic. They're intentionally trying to come up with the dumbest idea possible simply so it goes viral. Not Mr. Big, Loert and DarthDementous 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbellamy 6,270 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 It's a cute way to look at the music. Omnipresent, covers a broad emotional spectrum, comments on the narrative, empathizes with specific characters....yeah, why not? Johnny Baby = The Force. The only thing that annoys me about fan theories is that they've become so mainstream that major outlets report on them. Now I see these dumb Tumblr posts by 14-year-olds qualifying as top entertainment stories, but I guess I prefer it to a few years ago when Kardashian headlines were showing up in my newsfeed every week....

Bespin 8,472 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 It may be already posted, but the latest zany theory about SW is that Rey is maybe the child of the Force itself, like Anakin was. Ridiculous. Anakin was a result of the Force yes, but in reaction to the experiments of Plagueis. The Choosen One existed to thwart the extreme powers reached by the Dark Side, represented by Plagueis and his apprentice, Sidious. Sidious reached such powers, that he took all the sheet of the Force on his side of the bed, leaving the Jedi totally blind... even Master Yoda. Now, if Rey is the child of the Force too... it implies that such a threath has returned. I don't think Snoke represents this threat... nor Kylo Ren. Unless... Snoke is in fact... Plagueis... Will they play there? If Yes, they must be prepared. I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loert 2,509 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 http://newsthump.com/2016/04/09/none-harmed-after-imperial-stormtrooper-goes-on-two-hour-mass-shooting-rampage/ Quote Reports are coming in of a mass shooting incident featuring an Imperial Stormtrooper in which nobody has been harmed. Reports from a military base on Coruscant suggest the stormtrooper began his rampage by opening fire into the crowded commissary building, missing everyone, before moving on to firing wildly at a massed formation of troopers, once again causing no injuries. Fellow troopers are understood to have returned fire on the shooter, with little effect. Upon hearing the news, loved ones of fellow troopers rushed to the scene of the shooting as it was definitely the safest place to be. The shooter, who has not yet been named, is understood to have fired hundreds of rounds into a busy public area, leaving bystanders unscathed. The assailant was eventually brought down when law-enforcement officials tricked him into walking through a door and knocking himself out on the lintel. The only casualty is said to be a man wearing a red shirt. Witnesses said he ‘never stood a chance’ despite being miles away and nothing to do with the incident.

mstrox 6,637 Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I think the original video is funny, she wins you over with the sheer force of her joy. The promotional tour is a little draining (from what I've seen links to, she was on Good Morning America, Ellen, the late show with James Corden, maybe Jimmy Kimmel...plus they interviewed her on StarWars.com's new weekly talk show).
