Default Star Wars - No spoliers please

Ladies and Gents

Can we please make an agreement that no one gives away the story line for the upcoming Star Wars film once they have seen it?

I know we have some ***** on here but I think most will agree to this...

Cheers

Agree. I'm planning to watch episodes 1 to 6 first to completely refresh myself of the saga.

Agreed, but, a timescale would need to be set really.

IMHO no spoilers until the 24th December, gives people a week to see it.

To be honest though, there's gonna be spoilers all over FB and the rest of the Internet which we will have to try to avoid!

24th seems like a reasonable cut-off point

The only spoiler I have seen is where Han Solo crashes his small fighter onto a golf course

A few have commented that it is a remake of the original and that the special effects have not progressed since 1977.

Well, the next one is not a continuation of this one, it's how they got the plans for the Death Star, so it's between Episodes III and IV.

I thought Lucas always envisaged 9 episode, and a New Hope was no 4 with Return of the Jedi no 6

so this would be 7 to 9

personally I think it would be shame to turn it into a never ending story - if that is what is being suggested

I remember reading many years ago that Lucas's original story was about Mace Windu, but don't know how accurate that is.


However, in the documentary they are showing on Sky Star Wars channel at the mo, the story changed many times before the film got made, the original story didn't even have the force. Obi Wan and Darth were one character.


Lucas said that he then only had it as 6 episodes, it was the life of Anakin, which ended on Episode VI.


I don't mind what they do with the story, or how many they make, as long as they are good. There will be some less than stellar ones, but hopefully, most will be good.

Really enjoyed it.

Not sure showing a Wookie orgy was appropriate though.

Don't have a clue what you are all talking about

Have seen as many of these as I have James Bond films, which is maybe one or two at best, and not sure which ones, Casino Jedi Never Dies may have been one of them
