<p>MN5 jr the younger turned six yesterday so among his pressies his dear old Dad got him a copy of the Force awakens on DVD so great having the morning off for School Holidays to watch it with them before shipping them off to their grandparents. We did a bit of pausing and so on and so forth, given Rens weakened state it's not too much of a stretch that Finn held his own on the fight for as long as he did which at the time at the movies I found ludicrous, Chewies weapon was powerful enough to send troopers flying so Ren sure took it like a man, I guess the mental state he was in from murdering his old man accounted for him not blocking the blast. Even with the mask on he lacked Vaders aura but it's set up pretty nicely for him to be a part cybernetic badass in the next installment.</p>

<p>The fight scenes ( ships, stormtroopers etc ) are all really well done I reckon. Having seen it four times now ( with many more to come ) I'm still unsure where it sits out of the seven, DEFINITELY better than Phantom, probably better overall than Clones, Maybe equal to Jedi ? hard to say. It has set up the story so well though cos I'm fucked if I can figure our Reys story for sure......</p>

Got the BluRay version, which included the iTunes/Google electronic version.<br><br>
Now wish I had a BluRay player on the main TV. Might need a PS4... nah fuck it, that would mean running the cables again. No way.</p></blockquote>

Fuck that is a real dilemma. Hope you'll get through it ok. -
<p>You'd hate our primative set up! Cables up a storm behind the tv. so many that it looks like a nest. I still can't get the tv running through the sound system but somehow when we play a dvd it does go through the sound system.</p>

<p>I HATE ELECTRONICKY STUFF!!!</p> -
Yep it's a real heartbreaker that one. What other trials and tribulations are you facing? No AppleTV in the toilet?

<p>Why would I have an AppleTV in the toilet when there isn't a TV in there?</p>

<p>I only did it because the previous owner had punched the holes already for existing TV points, and I thought "this will be piss easy!"</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Two hours of fucking around later, I was contemplating just buying a cable manager and leaving that shit hanging on the wall.</p> -

<p> <br><strong>The Story Behind C-3POâ€
s Red Arm</strong><br><a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.slashfilm.com/c-3pos-red-arm-constable-zuvio/'>http://www.slashfilm.com/c-3pos-red-arm-constable-zuvio/</a><br>
</p>
<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">
<p>The story of C-3POâ€s new arm was told in C-3PO #1, a one-shot comic from writer James Robinson and artist Tony Harris (the duo behind a truly great run on Starman that you should read). If you still plan to read the comic, stop now – spoilers lie ahead.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]<br>
The short version: C-3PO survives a spaceship crash with a bunch of other droids, who are picked off one-by-one by the dangerous creatures and environments of a hostile world. C-3PO has his arm ripped off by an unruly beast and he replaces it with the arm of a fallen droid who sacrifices himself so the golden protocol droid can escape.<br>
However, the story is far more interesting on the page than it is in a summary... <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.slashfilm.com/c-3pos-red-arm-constable-zuvio/'>more</a></p>
