I live close to the Pinewood studio on the East coast of the US, you know, where they shot Guardians of the Galaxy, Capt America: Civil War, etc...... I wish they'd bring some of those Star Wars films down this way, it would be awesome to see some of those things around here.

All Hail George Lucas - Without him, none of this would exist.

So, can we retitle the thread with the movie's subtitle, or is it still too soon to call?

"Star Wars: Episode 8 - The First Order Retaliates"

SPOILER ALERT: Snoke is Jar-Jar Binks

I was sort of partial to "The Resistance Falls Back".

Haha nailed it. I'm already hearing people saying this movie will be 'a bit darker' than the first.

I can already see a scene where Ben Solo turns on his lightsaber in front of a bunch of unsuspecting little padawans / younglings

I'm not the only one saying this, but, I'm putting it out there.

Today, it was revealed that a certain character will be coming to Rebels.  I predict that character is Benicio Del Toro's role in Episode 8.

Doubt it.  The spoilers point to a much different role...

Ashley's married to one of my favorite "little" Padres, David Eckstein (all 5'7" of him).  I think they still live in San Diego.  We met her briefly a couple years ago.  Very "normal" couple.  She was driving a late model Honda Civic.  Nothing special, obviously a well-loved older used car.  She's very sweet, and unassuming.  Very down to Earth.

They watched the EP VII trailer with my friend and I on the LEGO big screen at CVII.  They were nice enough to pause shortly afterward for a pic.  Bumped into Dave Filoni shortly afterward for a pic too.

When I met her a couple years ago it was during a Force for the Course run that ended in Oceanside. There was a live Nerdist broadcast in the parking lot which was how we knew what car she was in (she kept walking back and forth from her car to the broadcast).

With Eck being only 5'7", she makes him look tall.

I'm a huge baseball fan, so I'm not sure who is geek out after more.

I watched that the other night.  He must have decided that a host just gets in the way.  He has the gift of gab.
