    It's okay, don't worry, you're not a horrible person for not paying attention.

    But what I really wanted to say is...

    I like the guys voice. If episode 7 takes place a few decades after ROTJ then he, his character, would have been alive during the OT, if he's playing an alien species in full costume/make up he could be even older but I would think they'd CGI that. Who knows. Look at the similarities though:

    John Noble would be a wonderful choice to appear! I think he is a good actor, so it would be awesome to see him in Star Wars.

    That's an interesting idea...[face_thinking] But it sounds a little too "Count Dooku" to me. And I have never liked the whole idea of the apprentice being older than the master, which is what it seemed was the case with Sidious/Dooku. I could be off on the ages there but whenever I saw the two of them together it always reminded me of like some senior citizen working at like Blockbuster video under his college-freshman manager. just strikes me wierd.

    If he werre like the leader of some planetary government, who also secretly had force powers, but was on the side of the empire and supported Sidious or something, then I could get down on some of that...(now that I think about it, I suppose that's not unlike Joruus C'Baoth in SOME ways.).....[face_whistling]

    You're not wrong about their ages. Christopher Lee (90) is 22 years older than Ian McDiarmid (68).

    Isn't that exactly his point? The apprentice (Dooku) being older than the master (Sidious)

    Noble would be perfect as the remaining senior Imperial officer in charge of the fleet in hiding

    Yes. He seemed like he wasn't sure about their ages so I was only confirming it.

    Well this rumor already had it's own thread but it got merged merged with the "Everybody And You Mama Wants To Be In Episode VII" thread so it's not your fault for not checking every post in every thread, I apologize.

    No need to apologize good sir. I was mostly just joking and being a bit dramatic.

    Also everyone knows that a good poster always goes down with his thread. :cool:

    I've stated my desire to see John Noble playing anything in the new films. So this rumor, though likely untrue, would make me very happy. His turn as Walternate and Walter Bishop makes it clear just how villainous he can be. Still, my personal hope is for him to be with the heroes voicing a droid.

    I would be extremely, extremely pleased to see John in this role, or any role in the film. He was incredible in Fringe; there's no question about that.

    Yes. I'd love to see John Noble in the ST, so JJ needs to start making phonecalls!

    Glad this is debunked, holding out hope for Gary Oldman or Rutger Hauer

    Just curious, what movie(s) are you more excited to see?

    VII-IX?
    Yoda?
    Solo?
    Fett?

    - I threw Vader stand alone in there too, because we all know its going to happen.

    I by far am most excited about VII and then Fett. Hopefully they show him getting out of the pit and settling this once and for all - that FETT LIVES!
