He`s a Sith Lord right.
A Darth , right.
What`s a Kylo

His title.
Ok for whatever reason Kylo is the new Darth , in a title sense.
So he then got to choose his own Sith name didn't he.
Why pick Ren

He was called Ben to start with , yet goes with Ren.
Because it rhymed

Is his imagination that weak

From enough of a distance written down Ren even reads likes Ben.
Be like me changing Max to Nax.
Who`d bother

Might seem a minor issue or not an issue at all.
Whereas it pissed me off.
Just as almost everything in seven and eight did

Thankfully I can laugh about that now though

I`d have preferred to see a Kylo Stimpy rather than Ren ,

Hell a Kylo Jar Jar would have been better

Pretty sure Jar Jar wouldn't have forgotten that in episode seven he had force sense , push and blaster freezing powers. Which is something Ren did. Since he never used them in the eighth despite several golden bleeding opportunities

I don't think Kylo Ren is a Sith though, so he's not a Darth. Pretty sure the Sith died (at least as far as we know) with Sidius and Vader.

Watching The Dam Busters.

The story about this for those who are not World War II experts:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Chastise

George Lucas admitted he used this movie as inspiration for the Star Wars Death Star Trench run.

He is an unoriginal hack.

He even stole the dialogue from it.

I saw all of the original movies on their opening days. I am a hardcore loyalist. I still have all my original toys and countless collectibles, some are worth quite a bit of cash.
After the prequels I really was disappointed. The new movies are terrible. No one is going to change my mind on them. Sure I'm much older now but we all still have a kid inside of us for certain things. Like boobies. But money and CG effects have ruined it for me along with crappy scripts and shallow acting.

Rebellions are not built on hope, they are built on some kind of ideology and resolute action. Hoping is for fools and procrastinators. These movies did not bring the original characters back to reunite them but to hype them and pump ticket sales. The only scene that did anything for me was Vader going full killing machine at the end of Rag One. The Last Jedi was The Last Straw for me.

Sorry, but I'm out George.

It is now official. Just released at Star Wars celebration, taking place right now in Chicago, the title of the upcoming Episode 9. It is....

Star Wars IX - The Rise of Skywalker

And along with the title came the release of the first trailer.

Bonus points if you recognize the manic laugh at the end.

Anyone know for certain where that desert scene in the trailer was filmed?-looked to me very like the Wadi Rum in Jordan...

Werner Herzog praises new 'Star Wars' series 'Mandalorian'

DISNEY'S BREAKTHROUGH SERIES ... it seems....

Quote:

"The camera, that could even be hand-held and move in between us, sees the same landscape. It's not green-screen and artificiality. It brings movie-making back where it should be. It's a phenomenal, phenomenal achievement," he said.

I've a lot of respect for Herzog, and if he is sincere in his views... this coukl be a killer for Amazon / Netflix... as Disney goes Head-On with streaming.
