I saw this on facebook the other night. Pretty much sums up my reaction.

I think he just realized this was the best way to win all those vs debates by having the Enterprise beat an ISD in a canon movie.

Or he's going to throw in the neo-E getting in the way of a TIE fighter and evaporating.

A very fine line you both are treading Mr. Moderator et al :poke:

They can if the tribbles don't have hero shields. The trooper gun has this odd malfunction of accuracy whenever a hero is on the screen. Its fine otherwise.

Well, the Klingon Empire nearly "lost" to the Tribbles, so I would hope that stormtroopers wouldn't stand a chance...

The statement "won't have nothing" is a double negative - it's a statement that he will have something to do with the new films. Which is a good thing, given that Lucas is very good at the high-level conceptual stuff, even if he can't write decent dialogue and is a bit hit-and-miss as a director.
Ok, there is double negative in spanish too but is not a problem in that particular phrase, i don't know why.

About your claim on Lucas, i'm not going to start an argument on that.
Trata las situaciones estresantes como lo haría 1 perro: si no puedes comértelo o jugar con ello, méate encima y lárgate!!!

Handle stressful situations as a dog would: if you can't eat it or play with it, pee on it and get out of there!!!
