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....

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.

      This has to be bitached about, those biased refs

      By fanpanther · Posted

      I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By CRA · Posted

      I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
