Not True: Han Solo shoots first in ‘Star Wars’ digital editions
[Update: This has already been debunked. Because life is pain.] This week it was announced that Disney and the Monolith were releasing Star Wars in all sorts of glorious digital editions. I didn’t give one singular crap because it was understood that they were still Georgey’s Bunk Butchered Editions. But if rumors hold, at least one of his more egregious hack jobs is getting reversed.
Maybe: Ben Mendelsohn playing ‘Star Wars: Rogue One’ villain
I am most acquainted with Ben Mendelsohn as the fuckboy that Bane readily handles in The Dark Knight Rises. But the dude is a pretty rad actor in other stuff escaping my mind, and so I’m down with him being cast as the villain. As Rendar said to me, he has Imperial officer written all over him.
OMEGA-CAST #15: The Hero We Didn’t Want
For the past dozen+ episodes of the OMEGA-CAST, Patrick Bateman has starred in a quality supporting role. However, this time the lovable, completely-stoned sociopath takes center stage in our descent into madness. Laugh at his non-sequiturs regarding the Powers that Be and the Televisor. Marvel at his input regarding the idea of concurrently developed sequels to one movie. Cower before his insanity when it comes to stalking celebrities online to “see how they’re doing.” From Star Wars canon to Dragon Age: Inquisition, he steals the show.
‘Star Wars’ Non-News: The TV show is happening, waiting for movies first
Here’s some Star Wars non-news for you. Apparently the proposed television show is still happening. However, it ain’t popping off until the upcoming movies adequately seed our pop culture psyche with the Force.
‘Star Wars’ Maybe News: J.J. Abrams wanted for ‘Episode IX’
I always sort of thought J.J. Abrams was going to direct the entire new Star Wars trilogy. But with the turnover from The Force Awakens to Episode VIII being so short, it made sense that someone else would direct the middle bitty. When they named Rian Johnson, that beautiful, talented fucker, as the man in charge I rejoiced. I could handle him ostensibly handling the next two flicks. But maybe! Just maybe! Abrams is returning for the conclusion to this new installment of the Skywalker Saga?
‘Star Wars’ News: Marvel’s ‘Shattered Empire’ begins the bridge to ‘The Force Awakens’
The Dead Mouse, Darth Vader’s Exploited Husk, and Marvel are teaming up to bridge the gap to The Force Awakens. The company announced as such earlier this week, revealing they’re dropping a fucking colossal twenty books (comics, novels, et cetera, whatever) to bridge the gap between Jedi and The Force Awakens. The first of which shall be Marvel’s Shattered Empire.
First six ‘Star Wars’ movies being retold as LEGO TV mini-series
A con-con-convergence of pop culture cash cows is coming! LEGO! Star Wars! Droids!
‘Star Wars’ Rumor: ‘Kingsman’ dude Taron Egerton up for Young Han Solo
So the dude from the movie I still haven’t fucking seen (Kingsman) is maybe/possibly up for Young Han Solo.
