Now there are these weird rumors of Disney overriding JJ's creative decisions, and some mystical 3-hour cut of the movie. It's like the revenge of the Snyder cut.

Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!
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.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
Today I drove to Tacoma (about 60 miles away) to see Little Women in an arthouse cinema with my best friend Sara, and the place was packed! We snickered and cried and leaned on each other, and after it was over we said "I'm so happy that I saw this with you!"
. . . and then we played "How many Farrow & Ball paint colors/Bradbury and Bradbury wallpapers did you recognize?" before moving on to squee about the costumes, because that is part of our friendship.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Naturally, because the main thing this hot mess of JJA cliches was missing was...45 minutes more of that?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

If it included an explanation of what the hell Palpatine was doing back from the dead I might deem it a marginal improvement.
Though if it's something like "he had a Horcrux", maybe not.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I'm okay with the idea of him using his mastery of the Dark Side to turn himself into a sort of Sith Lich (say that three times fast) but I'd like to know how he managed to unexplode himself.

Maybe he's part sponge and his cells just gradually stick themselves back together afterwards. Then we just need a solution for him to float around in until he's done.

Headcanon accepted.

Uhm, if you're accepting JJ Abrams headcannon as something plausible, then I'm worried for you.

I'm accepting billytea's canon. Haven't actually seen RoS yet, but I am here for Palpatine being part sponge

As an added bonus, in his final scenes when he's hanging on a stick he'll be good for cleaning all those hard-to-reach places as well.
