Yeah I'm completely sold. Made the mistake of reading the comments section on Facebook after watching it, hoping I would see a lot of geek love on there....

and of course it was full of people trashing the movie because it has a strong female lead character. Arguing that since Rey was the lead in TFA, having two movies back to back with female leads was too much.

Ugh, my bad for reading the Facebook comments section to begin with. I think this has the chance to be a very good SW flick, and I love the fact that we are finally stepping away from the Skywalker/Solo family for a bit. I hope this movie is a bit darker, a bit grittier, and full of kick ass non-Force using heroes. 

And for those who have a problem with a strong female lead, my 4 year old daughter (who is now obsessed with Rey) would like to have a few words with you :P

But are we really stepping away from the Skywalker family? Hmmmm

I agree, there is a lot of comfort in the old school designs. It takes us back to our childhood. Of course, the toy makers are going to exploit the poo out of that this coming Christmas. I'm sure I'm going to be shelling out over $200 for a new AT-AT for my .....um.....daughter. That's right, it's a toy for my little girl (Barbie popup camper be damned)

I honestly hope there isn't a single mention of the name Skywalker or Solo in this movie. SW is large enough now to be able to stand on it's own without those two names being involved.

The Expanded Universe fan in me though REALLY hopes that Kyle Katarn will swoop in with his Bryar pistol and save the day. He is the Chuck Norris of the "Legends" universe.

I am so excited as well!  Looks so amazing, visually.  They are having fun making the films.  A little bit of melodrama is perfectly acceptable in the Star Wars universe!

I don't read many comments because most people are stupid.  "I don't like female leads" person probably has a hard drive full of celeb nudes....

    • ....Yea, it literally wiped the smile right off Reichs face. We are kind of in the same position as Shitsburgh, looking for a QB.  They keep looking and trying to improve at qb but we just say: 'nah, we good'. The Dipper agenda keeps BY alive. To bad we didn't give Darnold or Mayfield that kind of time, They at least had the tools, skills and attributes of a QB. Its tough to win in the NFL, at least give yourself a chance. 
    • In 2025, he accumulated 59 receptions for 687 yards and 2 touchdowns. Also had 2 return touchdowns.
    • Rashid Shaheed Born: Aug 31, 1998 (27 years) Height and weight: Height 6′ 0″, Weight 180 lbs Current team: Seattle Seahawks (#22 / Wide receiver/kick returner) Rashid Shaheed signed a one-year, $5.2 million extension with the Saints in July 2024, keeping him under contract through the 2025 season with a $1M signing bonus and $4.2M base salary in 2025, before being traded to the Seahawks at the 2025 deadline, making him an Unrestricted Free Agent in 2026.   His initial deal was a 2-year, $6.185M contract with $1M guaranteed through 2025.    Rashid Shaheed's scouting report highlights him as an electrifying, big-play deep threat receiver known for elite efficiency on deep routes, explosive plays, and reliable hands (zero drops over multiple seasons), though he's undersized (around 180 lbs) and needs to improve blocking and route running consistency to shed his "situational/boom-or-bust" label and become a full-time WR1/WR2.     Strengths: Elite Deep Threat: Ranks among the league's best in air yards per target and yards per reception, consistently producing 30+ yard catches and touchdowns. Playmaker: "A playmaker" who excels at making plays downfield and adding a vertical dimension to offenses. Reliable Hands: Showcased impressive ball skills with zero drops over recent seasons, even making contested catches. Efficiency: Finishes high in metrics like yards per route run, demonstrating effective production when targeted. Undrafted Gem: A significant value find for the Saints, proving overlooked prospects can excel.      Areas for Improvement: Size/Blocking: At around 180 lbs, he's smaller and less effective as a blocker, which limited his snaps in New Orleans compared to bigger receivers. Route Running: Needs to develop cleaner routes and better consistency in intermediate areas to earn more targets beyond deep shots. Consistency/Role: Often a "boom-or-bust" or situational player due to volume fluctuations, needing more consistent targets to reach WR1 status.      Role/Projection: Schematic Weapon: Stretches defenses, creating space for other players and opening up the run game, making offenses more efficient. Fantasy Profile: A high-upside FLEX or WR4, capable of winning weeks with big plays but dependent on volume and quarterback play. Future Outlook: His value hinges on earning a larger, more consistent role, potentially becoming a true WR2 with more opportunity and development in blocking/route running.
