In clone wars...he was escaping with little boba
And kamino was not the best place for engagement with a Jedi

Have u watched the Mandolore saga in the clone wars animation

Those guys no send jedi

That's the fight i was actually talking of. And he did run, best place or not!

I hear you

I just hope JJ doesnt muck up the expectations of probably the biggest fandom in the universe. Im concerned on account of the mess that was ST:ID. The way he fuccked up Khan is unforgivable.

Fingers crossed!!

Can you mention the "others" to jug my memory, because apart from the Siths and Jedis nothing comes to mind.
You can google it. I'm sure you'll find it. I know of the witches of Dathomir. They are very strong in the use of the dark side of the Force. Mace Windu even fought one of the witches in The Clone Wars.

What is a lead role? I don't specifically know, but the role of Finn is not the lead. What of Luke Skywalker or Han Solo? Congrats to him though.

African Americans once complained that Josh Lucas doesn't use blacks for his movies (despite having a black wife). That must have prompted him to cast the guy.

African Americans care that much about Star Wars?

And you believe one would choose his lead role based on the needs of a minority audience?

A black dude represents FRESH.
