Also, that’s not a planet, Grandpa Space Gun, ranting about Simon Pegg the right way, Hannibal jokes, the Han solo movie, the most inevitable parade and Gary Fisher (twice.)

Rant of the week
Here's the thing about Simon Pegg: be mad at him all you want for disliking the prequels. But don't you dare say he doesn't love Star Wars
— Bryan Young (@swankmotron) August 14, 2015
Yes, I find Pegg's opinions on the prequels obnoxious, but he is one of the best screenwriters today. Him helping on Star Wars is good.
— Bryan Young (@swankmotron) August 14, 2015
He can't undo anything we love about the prequels. So calm the eff down.
— Bryan Young (@swankmotron) August 14, 2015
Saying you have to love all of Star Wars in order to be a fan is, frankly, gatekeeping bullshit
— Bryan Young (@swankmotron) August 14, 2015
Do I think you should love all 6 Star Wars movies? Absolutely. Can we be friends if you don't. Obviously, because we're not children.

Liam thinks that the Knights of Ren are a good group and Kylo betrays them. Damn, I love this kid's speculations. #StarWars #TheForceAwakens

Kylo Ren took the name of The Knights of Ren. He and Johnny, Dee Dee and Marky Ren go on to write "Blitzkrieg Bop" and become punk legends

Star Wars fans are going to be real disappointed when, after he says "Chewie, we're home," Han just stares into the camera for 90 minutes.

I think it's awesome the question that drew J.J. Abrams to The Force Awakens, "Who is Luke Skywalker?" is the one we know the least about.

Rogue One (and such)
There are seriously a dozen characters in Rogue One and one woman. It's like 1977 all over again. Pretty let down.

The only Star Wars speculation I currently care about is what is Mads Mikkelsen doing in #RogueOne? Who is he eating? I need answers people!

“A Star Wars Story” sounds like a show on The Learning Channel where people tell stories about how their life was changed by The Force.

So I agree that Felicity Jones being the only female cast member announced for Rogue One is frustrating, but…
— Eric Goldman (@TheEricGoldman) August 17, 2015
What if Jones as only woman in Rogue One is completely part of the story, reflecting/addressing lack of female Rebels/Empire in A New Hope?
