    I've spent the last few days reading Twitter trying to make heads or tails out of that whole Vader Fan film situation. And to be honest, I still haven't seen where Disney was at fault here? Am I missing something?

    He sold the property because he was getting old, because he did not have children interested in or capable of carrying on the family business, and so he cashed out while he could still control the terms of the sale.

    My daughter made my wife suffer this. And then my wife made me suffer this. And now I’m making you ignore or suffer this. (I may like it a little, but appearances are important)

    Didn't work out very well given one of the conditions of the sale supposedly was Disney use his story plan for the new trilogy & they threw it out first chance they got.

    He could've given SW to me. My version of the ST would have Nicolas Cage as a youngling, Ken, being recruited by Luke to hunt down Frank Palpatine who is not dead and is in fact a Latin speaking Tyrannosaurus voiced by Paul Reuben.

    It would've been so awful you guys :)

    It's a shame it says "spoilers" in the thread title. It kinda spoils the fun. In that sense, the thread title is a spoiler.

    @Diggy, that could be the first song in the Jedi Rock subgenre - mediocre pop music devoted to extolling the virtues of Jediism, if Jediism permits music during its services, that is. If not, maybe that could also be the last song in the Jedi Rock subgenre. Blessed be all of us.

    After "Just the Two of Us" he should continue covering Bill Withers discography. This should be his next hit, preferably played during the film:

    @gezvader28 Star Wars Galaxy of Adventures, on Youtube channel Star Wars Kids, is a new series of animated shorts that will introduce the classic themes, pivotal moments, and iconic characters from the Star Wars saga to the next generation. You can read more here.

    Essentially, the series is being used to sell toys.

    IMO, "Galaxy of Adventures" is "Forces of Destiny" 2.0. Personally, I don't think the Forces of Destiny toy line did too well. They all dropped to clearance at Target months ago and have not been seen since so I assume Disney is done with that and putting all their marketing behind this and the recently released "Star Wars Resistance" toys.

    i think I watched that fan film which is terrible and I don't understand why anyone even cares about it, including big companies. It is just so bad.
