BOBA FETT movie is being written by LAWRENCE KASDAN.

Boba Fett.

A Boba Fett movie is coming! It is being written by Larry Kasdan! The two factoids mating with one another should be capable of producing a gooey batch of excitement all over me. Then, I remember. Boba Fett is just the slap-dick clone of some loser who gets owned like a punk by some shit Jedi. Larry. Listen close. Ignore his history. Ignore it.

‘STAR WARS: EPISODE VII’ SCRIPT isn’t due UNTIL JANUARY. Hey, whatevs.

Star Wars.

The Episode VII script was junked. George Lucas caterwauled.  Now Abrams is in the hood, unfucking the script from scratch with Larry Kasdan. No problem, right? It’s just that, you know, the movie is due out in two years.

‘EPISODE VII’ SCRIPT CHANGES have casting call looking for “40-SOMETHING MILITARY MAN.’

Star Wars.

Gruff and tumble! Or some shit. Nothing says “Jesus Christ the Episode VII script is fly by night!” much like the fact that we’re seeing the casting calls evolve as said script does.

‘EPISODE VII’ Rumor: DISNEY CZARS demanding that FILM RELEASE IN 2015

Star Wars.

It appears that Disney is fucking demanding that Episode VII drop in 2015. The franchise has been sold  from a Tyrant to a bloated room of Money Grubbers. This was all known, but I hoped it wouldn’t impact the movies poorly. Others said differently. I suppose my more skeptical friends can take a free shot at my genitals. I will warrant it for now!

JJ ABRAMS (AND LAWRENCE KASDAN) NOW WRITING ‘EPISODE VII’, replacing MICHAEL ARNDT. Oh GOD.

J.J. ABRAMS.

Darkness. Darkness descending. My favorite refrain of “Oh man J.J. Abrams is a good director, but I’m glad he isn’t writing Episode VII” is no longer applicable.

STAR WARS – Episode Awesome: A Newer Hope!

A Newer Hope

It’s a spectacular time to be a Star Wars fan.

George Lucas, perhaps after being visited by some benevolent omnidimensional sojourner, has sold his most beloved franchise. The moment that fans realized Lucas was finally out of the picture, we began to dream. To wonder. To flirt with the idea that the piss-taste that’s been lurking in our mouths since 2005 may very well be washed away. New Star Wars films could be treated with the respect they deserve.

So, what’ve we been promised thus far? A new trilogy. Kasdan and Kinberg. J.J. Abrams. Cameos from members of the original cast. The interest of Hollywood’s finest actors and directors and other personnel. Spin-off, stand-alone movies.

In short, we finally have a newer hope.

Yesterday’s confirmation of the stand-alone flicks was the final nail in the coffin for my cautious optimism. I am now, for the first time in years, reveling in full-on nerdlust at the thought of new Star Wars. And while I have quite a bit of faith that a new trilogy could be beyond excellent, I’ve always loved the idea of free-standing movies taking place within the galaxy that Uncle George introduced back in `77!

Join me as I take a moment to geek-out about the prospect of new Star Wars movies! I’m going to fanboy my way through some of the premises I’d like to see materialize, no doubt getting so excited that my retainer spills onto the keyboard and my Diet Shasta bubbles over. After you check out my ideas, hit up the comments section and describe what you’d like to see during our next voyages to a galaxy far, far away…

Punch it, Chewie!

Daily ‘Star Wars’ Rumor: Lawrence Kasdan and Simon Kinberg spin-offs, not VIII & IX.

Hey man, as The Fucking Force Turns. Another day, another batch of rumors. Now Lawrence “Empire Strikes Back’s Daddy” and Simon Kinberg may not be writing the second and third movies in the new trilogy. They could be writing…spin-offs? Starring Lando and Han as they ball out of control, snorting Jawa Dust and slapping dames on the buttocks.

Rumor: ‘EMPIRE STRIKES BACK’ writer Lawrence Kasdan could script ‘EPISODE VIII & IX’?

Star Wars fans, go ahead and tug your bits to this rumor. It’s designed to titillate all your various nerd glands. There ain’t any shame, I promise. Draw the blinds, and get slushy in your pantaloons. Lawrence fucking Kasdan! Oh, and some other guy too.
