AGAIN, THIS THREAD CONTAINS SPOILERS!!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

No thread about this yet? I can't be the only Star Wars fan on the board, can I?

I saw it in IMAX 3-D, but made the mistake of only showing up 40 minutes before showtime, so I ended up in the second row. That is way, WAY too close. I had to turn my head from side to side just to read the opening crawl.

I thought it was fantastic. Exactly what a Star Wars film should be. It saddens me to think how good the prequels might have been if approached this way.

There were gaping plot holes, of course, but somehow those things are easier to overlook when the film is so entertaining. I'll be seeing it again. And from farther from the screen.

I can't help but think that Rey's parentage is going to come into play. Maybe Luke has an unknown daughter? Something called her to his/Anakin's lightsaber.

Oh, and THEY KILLED HAN! Once he walked out onto that catwalk, I suspected it might happen, but it still packed a punch.

That's pretty messed up actually. If you wrote those posts knowing there was an edit or delete button, then you have a reasonable belief that you can erase your posts if you later decide to.

The original BBoard had neither a delete nor an edit function. Regardless, I've agreed to de-link the posts.

I've submitted a rescan request to Sophos, for all the good that's likely to do.

As far as your request, I didn't see the original post, and I haven't recieved an e-mail from you since you asked me to remove your real name from the HoF several years ago (which I did). I'm not a believer in the EU's "right to be forgotten," but I'll de-link the posts.

I have all of the Slidersweb content backed up. I compared my backup to the current site files and nothing has changed since 2012 (dynamic content, I know). All of the files I have backed up have been scanned repeatedly by multiple anti-malware and anti-virus programs. If there's something malicious, it's a file that's hosted on an outside server. Which browser reported the issue?

I've never met anyone from the bboard in person. I joined the SciFi Sliders board in March of 2000, and a few people on this board (Quinn, Info, Chaser, TemporalFlux, Transmodiar, Vortex62, Grizzlor to name a few) were active on that and other boards well before then.

Sorry about that. I've been out of town with little Internet time and/or access most of the last month.
