No, I haven’t forgotten about the Twitter roundups, I was just busy freezing, falling and not being able to sit in a desk chair for several days. It was fantastic! In any case, the roundup is back, and it’s been busy. This installment covers the latest rumors, Marvel/Dark Horse and, of course, the ever-present freaking out whenever anyone mentions the Lucasfilm Story Group. Brace yourselves.

(On the other hand, we have wampa jokes and a chihuahua in a Chewbacca costume, so.)

The Whedon tweet above led to this adorable exchange with actress Anna Kendrick:

Another III memory: cursing myself for causing a cloud of dust to fall from the rafters from the ceiling during Grievous cruiser scenes

I was up there futzing with that blasted Hyperspace webcam.

Last weekend’s crazy script rumors. Also no, I didn’t do any searches on “Kenobi” because I enjoy having a full head of hair.

So the whole Story Group thing came back up last week and sent a bunch of folks into a tizzy. I’ll get into this and the whole possibility of the EU being shunted aside (again) soon but at the moment it’s all just more of the same. For now you can catch up on the latest outburst of panic and how things stand with our old pal Bonnie Burton.
