There can't not be Nai. God, no wonder this forum is a f*cking ghost town.

It's turned around quite a bit. It was dead-dead in January.

Filoni does have a hard-on for Sidious though, admit it.

You think so? I don't.

I think he rightly identifies the character's archetypal nature and thematic purpose as the dominant representation of the dark side within the story. So it stands to reason that Sidious must be immensely powerful, intelligent, seductive, etc. while also simultaneously evincing the dark side's many flaws: overconfidence, cruelty, fear, etc.

Sidious really isn't even the most powerful dark sider in The Clone Wars mythology: that distinction goes to The Son of Mortis.

This is far less wanktastic than, say, Karen Traviss with her Mandalorians, Timothy Zahn with Thrawn & Mara Jade, and Karpyshyn with Revan & Bane.

Finished the final episode of Dexter. A goddamn mother****er of a show.

Mother****ing bad, yes. At least, the last 3 seasons are. Awful.

Top 10 hottest women on the planet. Everyone compile and submit your lists, please.

I enjoyed it very much.

Probably gonna try out Lost. Anyone seen it?

Yes. Its pretty great, but the ending is that you either love it or hate it.

Best show ever. Do yourself a favour and have at least a 2 week break between seasons (people should do this in general with shows). People have a habit of watching shows that have already aired and watching season premiers directly after finalis, and you lose the anticipation you would otherwise have gotten if you watched the show when it originally aired, and had to wait and be left guessing what happens after a cliffhanger.

No spoilers but the wait between seasons 3 and 4 for example made the show just that much better when the season 4 premier finally aired.

This is one fvcked up kids show. 😐

Kate Beckinsale
Miranda Kerr
Natalie Portman
Vanessa Hudgens
Sarah Hyland
Chloe Moretz (shes 17 so go **** yourselves)
Kate Upton
Diane Kruger
Lauren Conrad
Olivia Wilde

Kinda hard to do actually, but that would be the best list I can give right now.

Replace Lauren Conrad with Cheryl Cole, and Olivia Wilde with Isla Fisher

HMs: Lauren Conrad, Willa Holland, Keira Knightly, Leighton Meester, Olivia Wilde, Emma Stone, Rachel Bilson, Katie Holmes

Some good ones on the list.

**MAJOR SPOILERS FOR THE FINAL ARC**

Spoiler:
Apparently Yoda will indeed be fighting the real Sidious on Moriband. The fight is described as Sidious "manipulating Yoda's reality," and is "dark and surreal," and is possibly "even more personal" than their fight in the Rotunda.

😐

In a bad way or good way? Depending on which will reveal whether you're a functional human being or a pile of broken bricks.

This list is f*cking sh*t.

I'd keep Portman and Kruger. All the rest would be filled with Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Watson, and that Lupita chick from 12 Years.

Dark meat...

I thought Canadians were all gay or into polar bears?
