Tarkin was wearing slippers.

Don't worry, Han will be back. Yee haw!

Funny deleted scene not available on disc. You have to redeem the digital copy to get it or just go to youtube:



It's reminiscent of Han speaking to the officer over the intercom in the Detention Center but it goes on too long and makes the FO Stormtroopers look pretty goofy. It does explain how he guessed that Finn wasn't part of the Resistance and why Finn didn't have his rifle "I need a weapon!" when they emerged from the rubble though.

I like it. It does make the Storm Trooper seems like doofuses, but it's fun. I would have kept it in.

"It's like looking in a mirror, only...not."

Bastards killed him. Before there could ever be a reunion for the big 3. Maybe to some that lends added weight to his death, to me it's a shame, at least right now. The next two films might vindicate it somehow.

What movie are we talking about now?

It does give us a brand new Trooper that doesn't appear anywhere else on film though, that red pauldron dude with Jakku/Heavy Gunner ammo packs.

You know Hot Toys will release that one now.

One thing is certain i'll never own a Snoke/Kylo/Maz/Unkar/Rey/Finn/Poe toy or high end collectible.

Hell, not even a TFA Han/Leia/Chewie/R2/3PO.

BB8 already do, maybe a Luke depending on E8/9.

Aw crap has it already been an hour? jye's gone loopy again.

I have been punched in my head one too many times in my life.

Happens when me and my 2 brothers play hockey and practice mma and an occasional boxing match.

I feel like a Slap Shot character.

Nah, it's what I expect from him. In fact his refusal to indulge in the Avatar backlash is directly linked to Cameron's enthusiasm to make 27 more of the stupid things.

You better believe it. And if you get snide with me again I'll be on the phone to Jim to see if we can push it to 30. I am clothed in immense power.

In the same interview, Cameron also discusses his plan for shooting Avatar's four sequels, a plan which sounds just as insanely complicated and stressful as you'd expect:

It’s not back-to-back. It’s really all one big production. It’s more the way you would shoot a miniseries. So we’ll be shooting across all (Avatar scripts) simultaneously. So Monday I might be doing a scene from Movie Four, and Tuesday I’m doing a scene from Movie One. … We’re working across, essentially, eight hours of story. It’s going to be a big challenge to keep it all fixed in our minds, exactly where we are, across that story arc at any given point. It’s going to be probably the most challenging thing I’ve ever done. I’m sure the actors will be challenged by that as well. It’s like, ‘No, no, no, no, this person hasn’t died yet, so you’re still in this phase of your life.’ It’s a saga. It’s like doing all three Godfather films at the same time.”


​

Pre-emptively comparing the Avatar sequels to the Godfather trilogy? There's the Cameron we all know and love!

 

[karamazov80]

He was really thinking, "It's like creating the Bible, except better and more important."

 

[pixletwin]

Gosh. I want his movies to fail so spectacularly. I can't explain it.

Oh my gosh Jim, that's just so UNPRECEDENTED! Filming an 8 hour saga at once! What's next, someone takes a classic book series and films a NINE hour trilogy all at once? Nah, no one will ever match the awesomeness of what James Cameron is doing right now.

[jye4ever]

Admit it, a Cameron Star Wars movie would blow away TFA!

[pixletwin]

yep.
