Yeah, it's been disappointing seeing more of this at recent events. But I've got faith that us NZers will set a much better example at Force FridayHarvey Mushman wrote:Was anyone trampled?
It is becoming the norm, it seems...
Q: The earlier movies, the first movies, things were good and things were bad. The Force was good and the Empire was bad. But now in today we live in a more gray area. I’m curious, 30 years after the fall of the Empire, why would someone want to start a First Order? Why would someone want to associate with the dark side when it’s corrupted everyone that it’s touched?
A: Exactly, these are the questions aren’t they? Yes, I couldn’t agree with you more. I do think the sort of obvious answer is that the Force has a light side and a dark side. It’s not just one thing. It’s not just that the Force is good, the Force is ... it can be a very dangerous thing. It can be a very seductive thing. I think that the story clearly requires a conflict of some sort. And so if people were rejecting the dark side somehow entirely it would be a hard thing to figure out what we would be up against. It was part of the, what felt like an authentic and true inevitability of what might of happened in the years post “Jedi.”
Q: Are there people that are Empire deniers? Usually in these fallouts there are these weird groups that arise out of the eventual end of a war?
A: You mean who makes up the First Order, basically? Is that what you’re asking me? Obviously, you’ll see the movie to understand it, but I will say that the interesting thing for me, is the history of these characters is these films, is the history that we know. So they’re aware of what’s come before. And there are, I would argue, those who feel like what the Empire was doing was righteous and had something not gone wrong, as we all know it did, they probably would have succeeded. And it might be worth trying again.
It is a time of uncertainty. Unrest grips the galaxy as the influence of the First Order spreads, but a glimmer of hope remains in the heroic forces of the Resistance. As they struggle against the dark might of the enemy, these brave heroes may yet awaken the skill and strength needed to forge a new future…

(THE FORCE AWAKENS) and I can tell you and the fans this,
honest to god, it is far and away probably going to be THE BEST
Star Wars you’ve ever seen"
Somewhat original stormtroopers. The O11 is reversed on at least one of them, and the ammo packs are on the wrong leg. It's a pretty terrible picture for accuracy.Anaria wrote: the first revealed shows classic stormtroopers?!
There's other weirdness going on...the trooper on the left (furtherest from camera) doesn't have any "O", just vertical bars.Eng76 wrote:Somewhat original stormtroopers. The O11 is reversed on at least one of them....Anaria wrote: the first revealed shows classic stormtroopers?!
