JJ's explanation is that R2 magically woke up at a emotionally convenient point in the story, and had been helpfully carrying around all the maps everyone needed for 38 years. Yeah, I'm good with that.
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Daniel, your last pairing is spoilery.
Which one, the one I had white fonted, or the one I just added white font to?

I think that R2D2 actually was programmed to wake in the presence of Rey. I suspected at the end that she is Luke's daughter.

I think I'm going to see it earlier than planned, as my cousin Betsy (whose taste in entertainment mirrors mine almost perfectly) absolutely loved it and I want to be able to discuss it with her at the family gathering Thursday afternoon.

Interesting fan theory about Kylo Ren. Basically, emo boy is in deep cover.

Interesting theory. I wish I believed JJ was that deep, because I'd like to believe Han died for a good reason.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
It is quite interesting, though I don't know if it'll pan out. It is very REN KILLS HANBLEDORE.
