  1. Which one was the photo?
  2. My parents were the kind who were always counter-cultural, so I grew up training to read stuff while not noticing the more risque elements in popular books and movies. So I have no trouble at all reading spoilery articles about TFA without being spoiled at all. I did read one slightly spoilery article though. It confirmed that there is something about Kylo Ren that's a spoiler so big, it won't spoil it.
  3. The full synopsis is up on Wikipedia, which I just barely avoided reading. Avoid the page at all costs; it could be triggering.
  4. Either way, I'm fine with how it is. They can reuse the story in a later season if they wish, without dragging down the main plot. Side note, I'd love to see other Inquisitors and ISB members killed by the Rebels. I'd particularly love to see Agent Kallus, the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister work together to send their comrades into suicide operations to eliminate their rivals. Filoni has hinted that with the Grand Inquisitor's demise, the organization is going crazy in a mad power grab, and I'd enjoy seeing the Ghost crew being used by Imperials to further their personal, hidden agendas. Think of how Kanan helped Rae Sloane get promoted by tricking her into betraying Count Vidian in A New Dawn, minus the trickery on Kanan's part.
  5. The best part is that since Ezra only learns about their "death" from word of mouth, it's possible they will appear later in the Series. Meanwhile, Ezra can't devote entire episodes to finding them.
  6. No, like the actual factions that appeared in LEGO Universe. Sentinels, Assembly, Paradox and Venture. I cannot for the life of me recall where the term PWR came from, but those suits were never released. The fanbase for the game would still buy the sets, but I highly doubt they would want armored Ninjago Ninja Suit Packs.
  7. What are those books, out of curiosity? And no, I haven't seen Claire in the show. My point was that she was meant to be like the background extras in the show-she just populates the town in the set.
  8. The trailer for BvS didn't actually kill my excitement outright. When I saw Doomsday pop up looking like a fat CGI Orc, however...well, I was more than a little disappointed. I do find it interesting that Darkseid is rumored to be controlling Doomsday. I'm not sure how I feel about that.
  9. Honestly, most of the X-Men movies seem to follow the same formula. Elements such as time travel do help to keep the movies fresh, but I don't know how much longer I'll be interested in mutant struggles...
  10. If that's what you wish to call it, yes. It was the season two midseason finale of Star Wars Rebels. It may not have had much action, but it had important exposition in regards to Ezra's parents. I like how they closed the plot thread-if Ezra's parents do turn up again, Ezra won't be looking for them in every episode.
  11. If you're trying to avoid spoilers, watch out for these guys: http://www.bleedingcool.com/2015/12/15/threats-made-to-spoil-star-wars-the-force-awakens-unless-demands-are-met/ I wonder if any of those "Rebels" will bring their Bantha Poodoo over here to EB. I hope not.
  12. Star Wars Rebels is on break until winter 2016. It's too bad we won't have anything to give us our Star Wars fix until then.
  13. Claire is a tourist. There are lots of tourists in the show, and Claire is simply the physical Minifigure of one of them. Such background characters come and go for the purpose of making Ninjago City look populated. The designers either had no idea what they were doing when they put her next to Jay in those pictures, or are really, really good trolls.
  14. Are you sure about that? Inhumans were introduced on Agents of Shield. Highly unlikely perhaps, but impossible?
  15. Interesting how Scarlet Witch has a new hair color. I wonder what's going on there. Side note, I really don't want Ward to die tonight. Even if I'm the only person who would enjoy watching him somehow miraculously redeem himself, he's quite an enjoyable villain. One website claims a major character dies as the direct actions of another character, but they don't say who it is, which is pretty dumb. :P
  16. First and foremost, Ahsoka was Anakin Skywalker's Padawan for two years Anakin was Obi-Wan's Padawan for ten years before becoming a Jedi Knight. She may have been a top-notch Youngling, but a full-fledged Jedi she was not. Now, because she was active during the Clone Wars, she has plenty of experience dealing with blaster-carrying troops (Battle Droids, Mandalorians, even Clone Troopers) as well as experience with staffs that counteract Lightsabers(IG-100 Magnaguards). She even fought General Grievous and Asajj Ventress on rare occasions. I imagine that she's been secretly training in the years before she revealed herself as Fulcrum to the Ghost Cell, so I see no problem with her taking on two of the presumably upper tier Inquisitors and winning. As for the Inquisitorious...the show has dropped a few hints that their main headquarters is on Mustafar, if not Imperial Center. Dave Filoni has stated that the Inquisitors that will be appearing on the show from now on will be lower Inquisitors, as the Grand Inquisitor was killed in "Fire Across the Galaxy". That being said, the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister are begrudgingly working together to hunt down Fulcrum, as well as anyone working with her. Two of the more powerful Inquisitors could potentially be more powerful than one master Inquisitor, and even the Grand Inquisitor was too powerful for Kanan during most of their duels. If Darth Vader sent them both to find and destroy the Rebel Cell, he has a reason. I always viewed Mortis as one of those ambiguous stories where it's entirely possible that it was only a shared Force Vision of some kind that Anakin, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka were in, or an alternate reality. In the current canon, that storyline hasn't been referenced again aside from a conversation between Anakin and Yoda is season six. The actions of that storyline don't seem to have any actual impact on the current canonical storyline except the conversation with Yoda, the very brief appearance of Nils Tenant and the idea of an awakening within the force.
  17. Oh, come on people...it's a LEGO show. We're overthinking this. No, Skylor is NOT an assassin, and never was. No such thing exists in the World of Ninjago, where people aren't killed by sword. Just look at episode 10 where Garmadon pushes Serpentine into the lava-they survive! Combat is basically beat them up and scare them away. There are no snipers who shoot people in the head or people who jump behind enemies and slit their throat. Another retcon with the family of a Ninja? Wonderful. But...is that even confirmed? All we heard was a vague hint that perhaps Jay's last name isn't Walker. Maybe he changes it on the run so no one recognizes him. Or maybe we're just being toyed with? Assuming Jay's "real" parents are someone else, that genuinely undermines the characters of Ed and Edna, who many kids have viewed as Jay's parents for four years now. Cole and Nya being the parents of Jay is probably the worst joke theory I've heard in the history of Ninjago. I wouldn't be surprised though; I hear Wu has a thing for former sisters-in-law. How does Cyrus Borg being in a wheelchair keep him from being Jay's dad? He could have been lying about being disabled all his life. Also, sex does not exist in LEGO themes. Characters have no genitalia. It wouldn't really make a difference if Cyrus was paralyzed down there. There's a reason why Emmet got away with running out the door completely naked in The LEGO Movie and the movie was still rated PG. EDIT: I heard a theory about half an hour ago that perhaps Skylor references Kai in season five- "A friend who shows up late is still better than a friend who never appears at all." I'm looking for where it was posted (Was it posted here? I'm half asleep!), but I can really relate to this in my personal life.
  18. Thank you. I quoted you here: https://community.lego.com/t5/LEGO-DIMENSIONS/Nothing-But-Starter-Pack-Loads/m-p/13295543/highlight/true#M2884 It appalls me that LEGO has stated absolutely nothing official about the game on their own Message Boards, aside from Moderators answering a few basic questions. Whereas @LEGODimensions seems quite swift to respond on Twitter, questions on the Message Boards are left unanswered unless experienced users are at hand. I end up having to answer quite a few issues myself, along with a few trusty players who have played all the way through the game. You'd think that LEGO would consider helping the kids whose parents won't let them on social media...
  19. Thank you for your answer. I own the game on WiiU, which seemingly downloads updates automatically, but someone else on another forum was having trouble with this patch. I hope you don't mind that I quoted this post elsewhere besides this site.
  20. With the Sith seemingly vanquished (Though Jar Jar is still out there ) and the only real Jedi in exile, who's supposed to help him make it? I'm starting to wonder if the Ghost crew actually succeeds somehow in wiping out the Inquisitorious. There are several active Inquisitors trying to become the Grand Inquisitor around 4 BBY, but if they aren't active after the Battle of Endor, it would explain why Kylo Ren would have a red Lightsaber crystal yet no understanding of how to use a Lightsaber. Perhaps he found a dead Inquisitor and attempted to reverse engineer the Lightsaber. Or maybe his Lightsaber takes the crystal from the Lightsaber of Darth Vader?
  21. The Moderators have never been rude to me. Everyone who's had to deal with me has been quite nice. I remember one post I made vaguely mentioning Ultra Agents and how popular government agents were due to recent political events, and Peppermint M very politely notified me that politics were a sore subject on this site. I also got a warning (I think it was from Rick) due to my signature being too big, but that was cleared up expediently.
  22. I completely agree. Heck, I don't know how I can still watch the show, much less enjoy it so much. When Nya became a Ninja, I felt like Nya's special abilities were being wasted to put her on par with the Ninjas. She wasn't a Ninja with Spinjitsu and elemental abilities, she was a Samurai with unique technology and mechanical engineering skills. The word "equality" isn't being used in the show, but when they made her just like the other Ninjas, they took away what made her unique and, dare I say, better. I don't mind P.I.X.A.L. taking a back seat, but Garmadon has practically "died" in EVERY SEASON. (In season 3 he only appeared to die for 45 seconds at the end of the fourth episode, but I'm still counting it.) As for Lloyd, I feel like he got boring when he turned "gold". He fulfilled his prophecy and has nothing to do, but this isn't Walking Dead-we're stuck with him. People used to laugh at me when I told them Legends of Chima did a better job keeping its story together than Ninjago. I wonder how if they're still laughing.
  23. I've found that loading worlds seems to reset the pricing. That works. I tried to hire the ACU Trooper in the Wizard of Oz Adventure World to use a broken electricity generator that was in a small area that had a security camera and a gate. I snuck into it using the TARDIS and jumped out. It took multiple tries, but I finally got in there and fixed it. Then I hired the ACU Trooper, and he immediately spawned...right outside the gated area. I think that specific gold brick was a subtle attempt to convince players to just buy Jay's Fun Pack.
  24. For the Doctor Who fans who can't find it in stores, you could always buy the sets online. I recommend selecting your country from the links on this page: http://brickset.com/article/17464/second-wave-of-dimensions-now-available#comments It helps support Brickset financially while still allowing you to buy directly from LEGO. I'll check my Target soon enough to see if they have it. I'm exhausted after working at my local voting precinct most of the day, so I can't go today.
  25. On an unrelated note to Torchwood(But not entirely unrelated to Doctor Who), Wave 2 launches tomorrow. I was running around for Streetpass Weekend(I got 100 tags in one day!) when I stopped by a Best Buy that was stocked with Krusty Fun Packs. Sadly, they didn't have the Doctor Who Level Pack or Uni-Kitty Fun Pack yet. I didn't purchase Krusty as I currently don't need him.
