Post of the week, right there, that's funny.
The Health and Safety Executive as a matter of course investigate serious accidents in the workplace in the UK. They would have interviewed as many people as possible and then formed their own case as to whether or not its worth prosecuting the company. Companies can be fined for breaches in health and safety law. I imagine Harrison would have been covered by a hefty insurance policy though.Z dweller said:Star Wars prosecuted over Harrison Ford injury
It doesn't sound like he was the one who initiated this lawsuit, but does Ford now stand to make some additional dosh from TFA?
He must have spoken to the UK Health And Safety Executive at some point, surely?
Who should sue them? George? I mean, wouldn't that be a tad... hypocritical?Stoo said:There should be a lawsuit against Disney & Jay Jay Abrams for making such a stinker out of "Star Wars 7". They futzed around and delivered a BIG PILE of sh*t.

Mr. Forest said:I recently saw TFA for my third time. My experience was the same as the my second, I was bored and only noticed more flaws with the story and characters.
It had been month since I last saw it so I decided why not kill time and go see it at the cheap theater two streets away. Plus my co-worker who I saw it with hadn't seen it yet so I took them with me. At least my most recent experience has made me realize I have no interest in buying the Blu-ray, at least as of right now.Attila the Professor said:Ok, I'll bite: why the third time?
Wow... how many times do you watch movies you do like?Mr. Forest said:I recently saw TFA for my third time. My experience was the same as the my second, I was bored and only noticed more flaws with the story and characters. I have yet to like any of Abrams movies so I wasn't really surprised since I knew exactly what I was going to see with the lackluster trailers. I much prefer the other six films.
Quite often. But I the case of TFA, I love Star Wars so I figured I would try seeing it again to see if I could warm up to it. Nothing so far. But I wouldn't consider myself a hater or anyth I Nguyen so you won't be seeing me constantly attacking the fikm. All I can really say is I didn't like it and I'Lloyd just leave it at that.Z dweller said:Wow... how many times do you watch movies you do like?

Joe Brody said:Agreed on the boredom, obvious inconsistencies, and just plain old lack of re-watchability on an attempted second viewing. Due to the Brussels shutdown I got rerouted onto a Turkish Airlines flight a few days ago and tried to rewatch because there just weren't a whole lot of film options. I couldn't get past the opening planet scenes.
Compare this poor showing to JJ's Star Trek which has a high rewatch-ability factor. Que sera, sera.
Life is still good for the Solos.Unlike other Star Wars books I’ve read in the past year, this one didn’t make me want to claw my eyes out.
Kinky. But I thought you couldn't copy files in Star Wars?There exists footage of Leia Organa murdering Jabba the Hutt with her bare hands and the Hutts have spent decades trying to destroy every existing copy.
... and Steven Spielberg:Well? George Lucas is a friend of mine and George and I had a good conversation about it. I don?t want to say too much about the film as I have a lot of respect for J.J. Abrams. I want to see where they?re taking it next, see what they?re doing with it. But I gotta say I think that George?s six films, had more innovative visual imagination. And this film was more of a retrenchment to things you had seen before, and characters you had seen before. It took a few baby steps forward with new characters. But for me the jury is out, I want to see where they go with it.
George Lucas' fingerprints are on Star Wars: The Force Awakens, because that movie is an homage to Episode 4, 5, and 6. A complete homage, so George Lucas is all over The Force Awakens, lest we ever forget that.
