    I rent a fair amount of 3D Blu-Rays.

    The last ones I bought were the Hobbit 3D extended editions.

    George Lucas appeared on the James Cameron’s series "Story of Science Fiction" and delved into the origin behind the idea of midi-chlorians
    and their connection to real life science, and how he blended that with the Force, along with his ideas behind the nature of the Force.

    The only movies I bought in the last decade are the first 7 Star wars episodes + Rogue one. Also went with blu ray. It was last year.

    I brought a blu ray player for $60 a couple years ago before chromecast.

    The one and only blu ray i ever brought was Promethius, which was cool in super hi def.

    But after that, jusr didnt see the point.

    Pay like 60 bucks a month for unlimited broadband anyway.

    Esoecially for CGI movies, they look better in one way, but more obviously fake the higher the definition

    Yeah but the type of abuse he experienced every African American actor of note has experienced even the guys you would least expect like Denzel Washington, Samuel L Jackson, Morgan Freeman, Forest Whitaker, Laurence Fishburne, Will Smith, Danny Glover, Louis Gossett Jr., Dennis Haysbert, Delroy Lindo, Ving Rhames, just to name a few…

    Will Smith in particular though, how do you distinguish between guys just getting pissy he is of a certain pedigree, hugely successful in TV, then on to music, then on to movies, race just being an easy cheap shot.....compared to it actually being about race. He was the biggest movie star on the planet in the 90s

    I think the force is all rubbish. In the first films it was something that could be taught while in the the next 3 prequels it was something you were born with. Never quite understood that. I prefer the original ways.

    it could always only be taught to someone with strong force senses. The reason luke could shoot womprats so well was his force abilities. He just needed teaching to be able to do it every time.

    I suspect even if you lived in the Star Wars Universe you’d be more inclined to take Han's position

    Oh but you know I'm into all that kind of stuff. :p
    I just didn't like how it was perceived from era to era though it was explained above a little bit. :)
