    I hope Han is referred to as an "old fossil" at some point. Turnabout's fair play.

    For some reason this makes me want to listen to the radio drama again.

    Note! - "The Empire reboots?" I've got a bad feeling about this.

    I actually find that encouraging, it suggests the Empire's not dead which is what I was hoping. :)

    Which is a play on The Empire Strikes Back, and also infers that the Empire itself is being rebooted into something new.

    Or, y'know, it's just a clever play on words to grab people's attention. ;)

    No kidding, FS. My point stands. "Empire" is used and it's why I used it.

    Ah, how I remember getting flamed out for calling it a "reboot" after the announcement. I guess over the past months the pretense has faded.

    1. It's a play on words, guys.

    2. We don't know yet what the First Order means, if it's an alternate name for the Empire, a sect of the Empire, a group that broke away from the Empire, or an indie rock band.

    OK y'all hang on hang on hang on... do any of you actually believe they leaked detailed background information about the political state of the galaxy in the form of cryptic subtext from the headline of VANITY FAIR?


    I'm... I'm losing faith over here. I'm losing faith in people. I'm sad.

    Some mornings, I wake up, you know, and the sun... it's brighter than usual. And I think, "Maybe it means something."

    It doesn't.

    You don't believe Vanity Fair have an inside source to the contents of the Mystery Box? Oh, ye of little faith.

    Well, the cover thing is just promotional language but I'm sure there will be some new info in the VF piece itself. They did a similar first look thing through all the prequels, with BTS promo shots and some character background fluff etc. How much they'll be given with the new tight info controls is another matter, though.
