If Disney wants to use Vader in a new movie there is a very easy and acceptable way to do so - don't call the movie Episode VII and instead set it a few years after Episode III.

There's a span of 16-18 years between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope that has never been touched. This material is ripe for development and you can use Vader, Boba Fett, Yoda, Obi-Wan, younger versions of Han and Lando, etc., without resorting to any kind of goofy (no pun intented) plot twists to explain how fan favorites who either apparently, or obviously, died are back.

Hell, in Lucas' tradition of changing things to make them fit, you could even relable ANH, TESB and ROTJ as Episodes VII, VII and IX, and call the new trilogy Episodes IV, V, and VI.

I think this would make much more sense and would be far more readily accepted than trying to continue the story post-ROTJ with a new cast, etc.

I loved how they shot the Glenn/Rick confrontation scene in such away to make Rick appear as walker-like as possible - mindlessly savage and covered in blood and gore.

Bravo to Glen Mazarra for some excellent directing this episode.

Yes, please, Please, PLEASE reopen the chalet.

It's my favorite place in CoX and it's where I planned to be when the servers go dark.

Please?

I apologize folks, I was trying to add some levity and thought this would be an obvious enough joke on its own. I was wrong, or I failed to take into account the way folks would read it.

The joke was - Disney called NCSoft and asked if they could buy CoX, they were told no, so they decided to buy Lucasfilm instead.

According to an interview with Robert Iger, Disney actually contacted NCSoft about purchasing City of Heroes. However, they were turned down, so they went with their second choice instead.

Sorry if this is common knowledge, but I couldn't find it on the wiki and the forum search function isn't working for me for some reason. Is there a list of what the Weekly Strike Targets are between now an November 30?

Thanks!

Not sure how much playing I'll actually get to do because of other committments (work tomorrow, Halloween party Saturday, etc.), but I always said one of my goals in CoX was to get a 50 of every AT.

I'm nowhere close to that having only four 50s (a Scrapper, a Dom, a 'Troller and a Blaster), but starting tonight, I'm going to try to get my highest level Brute (44), Corrupter (34), Tank (32) and Stalker (16) as close as I can to 50 before they take the game away from me.

By the way, are there still WSTs? And if so, what is the WST for this week/end?

Thanks guys, this truely made my day! At least now I will always feel like I still have a little piece of the game that has given me such pleasure these last five years.

Now I gotta look into that tool I read about that will allow me to to save some of my characters...

This may be a dumb question - I'm not very computer savvy, but is there a way to find and save any of the music files used in CoH?

Last night I logged in to a character I had parked in the ski chalet, and that cheesy Bavarian Christmas music instantly brought me back to my very earliest experience in CoH during the 2007-08 Holiday event.

I know that I'd get a lot of nostalgic enjoyment out of listening to that, the Atlas Park intro music, various clips from Steel Canyon and Boomtown, among others. Heck, even DJ Zero's jams will bring back fond memories.

So how about it - is there an easy way for me to find and save these music files before it's too late?

Thanks!

I believe I remember this same plotline from the late '80s or early '90s. And that probably wasn't the first time they had explored it either.

I'd actually consider contributing at the $500 level if I could select ANY character for a sketch, but I don't want a sketch of a Cyberforce character.

I'm calling it - the Marvel-based TV series will be... Runaways.

From one of the more quoteable movies of all time...

"Hey, Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?"


"These people are here to protect you. They're soldiers."


"Hudson! This little girl survived longer than that with no weapons and no training."



And some others from a rather famous franchise...

"Don't try to frighten us with your sorcerous ways, Lord Vader. Your sad devotion to that ancient Jedi religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you enough clairvoyance to find the rebels' hidden fortress..."


"Look, it's headed for that small moon."


...


"Your taun-taun will freeze before you reach the first marker!"


"What's the matter, Princess? Afraid I was gonna leave without giving you a goodbye kiss?"


"Sir, the odds of successfully navigating an asteroid field are 3720 to 1."


"I love you."


...


"Your overconfidence is your weakness."



"Never. I'll never turn to the Dark Side. You've failed, your highness. I am a Jedi, like my father before me."

To get to the other tide?

Not all villainous shark plots go swimmingly...
