    Ben Smith runs in such an ungainly way when holding BB8. Cully looked so much better.

    @crucial That was cool.

    There was a Star Wars mini exhibition at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney today ... they have a life sized new episodes X Wing just sitting out the front.

    The full exhibition is coming in November as this one was more targeted at kids getting photos with characters/displays and being filmed on green screen.

    There was an augmented reality section where you could have a lightsaber fight, the queue was way too long, but the girl who was promoting the devices (headset and light saber) was so hot I almost bought one, but it's single function at the moment. https://www.jbhifi.com.au/lenovo/lenovo-star-wars-jedi-challenges-ar-headset/502683/

    Holy shit that looks awesome. Any idea how good/effective it is? That looks too good to be true.

    I wasn't prepared to wait the 2 + hours in the queue so didn't have a turn. I think it would be worth it if Disney start adding Marvel 'games' to it in the future as well.

    I'm seriously tempted. Price isn't that bad. I'd happily pay that for lightsaber duels on tap. Just a bit skeptical about the tech.

    My neighbour has VR and I get bored with that after a while so I think a single function game would get a bit boring after a while.

    Noticing a few more positive stories related to Solo, maybe it’s not going to be a dumpster fire?

    Only reason I’m bothering to see it at the cinema is Ron Howard and Don Glover.

    This dude should have been Han btw. He's the image of Ford, speaks like him and has even played a young version of him:

    That's uncanny.

    Still willing to give this other bloke a chance though. Ewan McGregor looks nothing like Alec Guiness and he still did a great job.

    Always to good to pop onto this thread every now and again.

    Reminds me that behind all the rugby talk, interesting political debate & general all around advice which is offered, given, debate and destroyed ... you're all just a bunch of proper nerds / comic book guys.

    True, but Alec was an old fart when he played Obi. The new Solo is only 7 years younger than Harrison Ford was in episode 1. We've already seen a young Solo and he doesn't look or sound like this new bloke.

    Take that back. I may have all my old Star Wars figures bluetacked to my desk and a metre high Darth Vader beside it but that doesn't mean....

    Fair enough.

    This does not bode well:

    L3-37 | Wookieepedia | Fandom

    L3-37 | Wookieepedia | Fandom

    L3-37, abbreviated L3,[5] or Elthree, or nicknamed "Vuffi,"[7] was a feminine[5] custom self-made piloting droid[4] associated with Lando Calrissian who was active during the reign of the Galactic...

    "She cared deeply about droid rights."

    Stick a fork in it. The SJWs have officially taken over. Why can't these fuckwits leave anything alone?

    Initial reactions to Solo are very positive. I expect @Rancid-Schnitzel will hate it.

    I saw the trailer at the movies, looked OK. The millennium falcon never looked so good

    If there’s more then 2 lines of dialogue spoken by a strong female character then yes it will be hated by a couple ferners

    I've got nothing against Rey, Jyn, Leia or Padme it's the new females in the latest one I can't stand and I'm hardly alone there.

    I can guarantee Solo will be better than TLJ.
