    Considering that we lost 1/3 of entire population and 60% of male population in WWI, the ending of that war is a big deal. It's understandable that you would commemorate Gallipoli as it had the biggest impact on your part of the world. Man, 100 years. It seems so long ago and really it's not.

    I could get behind this. :D

    Not yet. Probably between shows, not during a show. They also showed that this weekend they'll be some SW thing during some music awards show, too!

    Some of us are watching. Nothing interesting yet. They're having the casts of these shows talk about how their shows are similar to Star Wars... or something. Whatever it is they want to actually show us will probably not be until whenever this bloc of shows ends (which is hopefully soon!)

    It's astonishing how strong they give Star Wars exposure in the final weeks.
    The Saga never had the chance of having such boosters (Thanks to Disney) 5 weeks before the movie release.

    And... again folks... this is not aimed at us (We'll be in lines, our tickets are already purchased)... this is targeted to the general public.

    Good lord, this movie will be an event at the box office.
    Some said ridiculously huge amount of money.... words of wisdom, the machine is strong and powerful and now has The Force along with it.

    The way the tried to connect Gray's Anatomy to Star Wars seemed generic and stretching it by a mile. I am hoping we get a little something more.

    Now, I understand what all those non-football fans had to endure while sitting through a half of football just to watch the trailer...Luckily, I am only catching a glimpse of show while flipping back and forth between the football game...this is torture.

    I wonder how many people bought Disney stock the past year or so.

    Star Wars has officially entered the 21st century folks.
    (I still think the prequels was a 90s Phenomenon... and it was... the SE, Phantom Menace, the beginning of the Internet)...

    Now, it's just... everywhere, it surrounds us, binds us, brings the galaxy together, even on ABC.

    It's boggles my mind how some people still haven't gotten wind of the new Star Wars movie; they'd have to be living on Mars.

    Wait my friend, they belong to the category of the most lucrative persona.
    They will hear about the phenomenon... (Like I did for Titanic in 97... What? A movie about the Titanic, 3 hours long yawnnn).
    They will follow the tide (They say it's great and I have to see it in 3D.... like I did in 97 with Titanic)
    They will love it (They will see it a couple of times... like I did in 97 with Titanic)
    And then they will go back and see the whole Star Wars Saga
    And probably then watch "Episode I" because it's the "first episode"... and they will tell themselves... Whaaaat?

    So, our job GANG, is to inform these new Star Wars fans to watch 4-5 and 6 before the prequels.....
    That should be our mission.

    It's been 3 years of waiting since the acquisition and now it's finally happening... It's so satisfying to see. What can I say, if I have to see a stupid ass Go-gurt commercial, it may as well be one that has a kid using one of the yogurt tubes as a saber hilt.

    Scandal dropped a "Jedi mind trick."

    It's everywhere.

    How come it's ok to show man-nipples on tv but not lady nipples? I don't want to see the nipples of the guy from Wings. I want to see Star Wars nipples.
