And he was OK with just letting it go (At least he liked the sentiment.) So let's not rekindle the unrekindled rekindled argument!

In other news, I totally got my Blu-ray last Friday. I had preordered it for store pickup at Best Buy, because I wanted one of those hard-to-get steelbooks. For some reason they changed it to "Ship to Home" and shipped it right to my home like a week early.

So I have something before the rest of the world! I feel powerful.

Yeah, I bought it last week at Target.
I'll be going to Target first thing in the morning when it's released and use my 15% employee discount ;D

Online or in the store?  I was in Target a few days ago, I'll probably buy it at Target or Best Buy tomorrow, looks like Target has it's own special edition and Best Buy has the steel-book, but I'll  be getting the regular Blu-Ray that is the same at both stores.

Sorry, I was only kidding.  Trying to make Pak feel less special.

Went to Target right at 8am and they hadn't even brought out the Exclusive Target DVD-BlyRay-Digital download combo set yet ???
Apparently someone had put them high up on a shelf in the back and forgot to bring them back down to set out this morning so I along with 3 others had to wait some 15 to 20 minutes for them to be retrieved.. ::)
Hung out with the other workers for a bit and the bi-polar store manager was starting to get annoyed as I was supposedly holding up progress but said if someone would get those combo sets out here I'd out of here!

Picked up the regular Blu-Ray edition at Target this morning since I had to drop some stuff off at the Post Office on my way to work (forgot this is the last week in March so have to get my property tax checks in if I want the 2% discount).  First time using self checkout at Target, I remember them saying they would never have self checkout, but it is a big time saver when you only have one item.

Our Target doesn't have any self-checkouts ???
Ripped the DVD and burned a copy that I captured in my old Pinnacle Studio 9 program with no problems 8)
Now I'm ready for the mp3 when ever it's released to create my reauthor ;D

Just got done with the deleted scenes, some good stuff there.

Loved the "lesson" with the caretakers, Luke being light hearted for for a brief moment was nice to see.  Wish that scene had been left in.

The alternate battle with Phasma is interesting, but I can see why they changed it, too much time taken up with the  storm troopers needing to think and consider what Fin said, while the ship is exploding around them.

Every now and then here at RiffTrax we like to feature an obscure little indie movie that went by unnoticed. Just to make sure everybody gets that we’re real film buffs, y’know? So, to that end, he…

So this really conveys what I hated about Rose's line/actions at the end. Is this a misinterpretation?

Han only needed to get a couple of fighters off Luke's back so he could take the shot, the suicide run by Finn was only going to delay the inevitable a little bit, there were a lot more troops and ships on the other side.  The resistance was down to needing to save every single person they could keep on their side.

I'll agree that her speech suffered from some poor writing.

I mean, in that meme, he completely failed to save what he loved. It's mostly about motivations and the subtle ways they guide your approach.
