IGN Interview With Dave Filoni

IGN has a new interview with CW’s Dave Filoni where they discuss Season Two, Lucas’s ideas, and what to expect the rest of the season. Oh and he also claims it’s TOTALLY coincidental that Obi-Wan’s old gal pal Satine just so happens to share the same name as Ewan McGregor’s love interest played by Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge.

Riiiiiight ;).

Quote of the Day

From knight_ander on his LiveJournal:

My brother posted on his Facebook that he was going to do a SW marathon, which I marked as Liked. Later he updates that he’s watching ROTS and had to stop what he was doing because, even though he has seen the movie before there was a lot of stuff he didn’t remember.

Then one of his “friends” hauls out the “true Star Wars” fans don’t like that movie, TPM, AOTC made him sick, blah, blah, blah.

I had to step in and defend my fandom because, obviously, this person wasn’t a true Star Wars fan, at least to my definition. My response was fairly civil, I think. “True Star Wars fans know that there are SEVEN movies, and love them all like family.’ Yeah, a little snarky there, maybe, but that’s my stance and I’m sticking to it.
