Want to visit new planets in Star Wars: The Last Jedi? It’s good, it could be that a new world called Canto Bight was recently unveiled!
One of the reasons why we love Star Wars obviously rests on the fact that we take the opportunity to travel! From a desert planet to a viscous swamp through a world of ice and a city floating in the clouds, the saga has always taken us to very, very diverse places. And, thanks to the new trilogy, we have not finished visiting the galaxy! If we go back to Tatooine or Endor in Star Wars: The Last Jedi , there is no doubt that our heroes will also take us on new planets. Starting with Ahch-To, where Luke chose to live in exile and whose secrets should be discovered through Rey. But according to Making Star Wars, we will also have the opportunity to go on a whole new world , Very different from those we have seen so far in the films of the saga. And for good reason, it would be a planet-casino. Intriguing, intriguing …
The site claims that a whole new planet named Canto Bight will make its appearance in the saga and that it would be linked to the secret mission of Finn . But not only ! Because it would also be there that we would meet DJ, the presumed character of Benicio Del Toro in Star Wars: The Last Jedi . According to Making Star Wars, the scenes taking place on Canto Bight, whose name remains to be confirmed, were filmed in Dubrovnik from where, you may remember, we had received some pictures of the shoot. At the time, the possibility of the character of Benicio Del Toro being connected in one way or another to the scenery on the images was mentioned. What then let us think that this ancient rumor was not far from the truth. But that’s not all ! Because always according to the site, a decor of prison would also have been constructed so that there are turned some scenes. And here at melty, we think we’d see DJ locked up behind bars … before he’s released by Finn and the character of Kelly Marie Tran – who apparently is supposed to help our hero – Gives them a helping hand as part of their secret mission. But all this is only conjecture. Even though the idea of a casino planet, so inevitably a bit shady, is still exciting! What kind of planet would you like to see in Star Wars: The Last Jedi? J locked up behind bars … before he was released by Finn and the character of Kelly Marie Tran – who apparently is supposed to help our hero – so he can give them a helping hand as part of their secret mission. But all this is only conjecture. Even though the idea of a casino planet, so inevitably a bit shady, is still exciting! What kind of planet would you like to see in Star Wars: The Last Jedi?

Star Wars 8, The Last Jedi: Luke, Rey, Kylo Ren … who will be present in the first teaser?

sivertime — Tue, 14 Feb 2017 18:36:01 +0000

Which characters will appear in the first Star Wars 8 teaser? The new rumor that circulates on the net on this subject could well give us some clues!
Well, we learned the official title of the next Star Wars episode. And now what? Well, now, we wait. We’re expecting April, which should mark the waves with the first teaser of Star Wars 8: The Last Jedi in the annual Star Wars Celebration . Yes, two months is the time that he will obviously have to wait before having the very first images of the film. And we are not even sure that they will not simply constitute a video behind the scenes! What, meltynauts, does not prevent us from dreaming or hoping. Nor to imagine what it could take place in the first TRUE teaser of Star Wars 8 . And on this subject, a rumor has been running since yesterday on the net, Launched by Star Wars News Net. If he does not know the exact content of the future teaser, he would have discovered … what characters could show up ! As much to say that the names that are mentioned are obviously the ones that are expected the most.
According to the website, therefore, the first teaser for Star Wars 8 would pride to the Resistance and therefore, inevitably, our General Leia . And we do not have too much trouble believing, to show the character of Carrie Fisher in the video representing a new opportunity to pay homage to him. But she would obviously not be the only one. Rey and Finn – this dear Finn that we tend to forget – would also be present. And Luke in all this? The one that seems to be the last Jedi title and we only saw a few seconds at the end of the Revival of the Force ? Well, rest assured! It would seem that our mythical Jedi will also be part of the game! On the other hand, beside this, It is not known if Kylo Ren or even the character that Benicio Del Toro plays in Star Wars 8 – and that some imagine in the role of Rey’s father – will show the tip of their nose. Of course, all this is for now a rumor and it could be that the teaser presents any other character. However, we remain hopeful. The first video of Reveil de la Force had shown Rey’s face, hidden certainly, but we had especially allowed to find Han Solo and Chewbacca as they landed in the Millennium Falcon. Nostalgic fiber to vibrate. The first teaser of Star Wars 8: The Last Jedi could, however, get faster in the heart of the matter! What would you like to see in the first teaser?

Star Wars 8, The Last Jedi: Does Benicio Del Toro play Rey’s father? The new theory!

sivertime — Fri, 10 Feb 2017 18:36:58 +0000

If Rey’s father was actually … played by Benicio Del Toro in Star Wars 8? If it was related to the Star Wars: Rebels series? It is in any case the new theory that circulates!
One focuses so much on the mysteries that surround the identity of Rey and that of the famous last Jedi of the title of Star Wars 8 that one would almost forget the other personages. And especially the newcomers whose names and roles are still unknown. The editor of melty obviously thinks of the protagonists played by Benicio Del Toro, Laura Dern and Kelly Marie Tran. Yet who tells us that one of them is not related to our new heroes, and especially to Rey? After all, with Star Wars, almost everything is possible! A new theory about Rey’s father, apparently (or not) introduced into a major Star Wars 8 scene , is indeed circulating on the net and claims that our heroine would not be a Skywalker, a Solo, or a Kenobi . So where could she come from? Well, according to a Reddit user named Darth_Hodor, Rey would actually be a Bridger . Yes, like Ezra Bridger, the hero of the series Star Wars: Rebels ! And, according to him, Ezra could indeed return to Star Wars: The Last Jedi in the guise – you are given it in a thousand – by Benicio Del Toro!
In the absolute, his theory has nothing really impossible. Star Wars: Rebels taking place a few years before A new hope, Ezra could therefore have fifty years in Star Wars 8 , the same age as Benicio Del Toro himself. Moreover, the rumors circulating on the animated series foresee that Ezra will join the followers of Luke Skywalker in its last episodes, which would at the same time put the little Rey in contact with the famous Jedi. But as the details of the role of Benicio Del Toro in Star Wars 8 have revealed , it is clear that his character will be rather ambiguous and that he will look a little bit in his actions and motivations, To the Lando Calrissian of L’Empire contre-attaque . Which means that Ezra would somehow turn away from Luke’s teachings in one way or another , forcing the latter to hide Rey on Jakku . That does not necessarily mean that he would then have tipped the dark side and joined the ranks of the Knights of Ren – because, it would still be a little hard to believe … Benicio Del Toro in Ezra Bridger and father of Rey, then, is what this new theory consists of.
But hey, we must admit, the latter does not know any problems. Starting with the fact that if Star Wars: Rebels is now part of the Star Wars universe , not everyone has seen it ! As a result, it would be a good part of the spectators who would stay on the floor, without knowing who this Ezra really is and where it comes from. So, one could argue that Star Wars: Rogue One addressed a few winks to the animated series, but they were just that: winks without any impact on the plot of the film. And then there is also the fact that such a revelation would represent a huge spoiler for the end of Star Wars: Rebels , at least with regard to the character of Ezra, which would not necessarily appeal to everyone. In the end, this theory is especially interesting because it engages on unexplored paths and chooses to say that, no, Rey’s father is not a character of the first trilogy. This is rather innovative in itself. But if you can not imagine that Benicio Del Toro really plays Ezra Bridger, it does not necessarily mean that he does not incarnate … the real father of Rey . After all, nothing tells us that she must be the daughter of a protagonist known to the saga. Especially we still do not know who might be his mother. What do you think of this theory?

Star Wars 8: What could the title mean for the Jedi and the dark side of the Force?

sivertime — Tue, 24 Jan 2017 18:54:39 +0000

If Luke is the last Jedi mentioned by the title of Star Wars 8, what consequences could this have on the future of the Jedi order and on the dark side of the Force?
With its new official title, ” The Last Jedi ” Star Wars 8 has been put at the center of our attention. It must be said that with such a name, there is enough to provoke discussions! Already because one wonders who it is here. De Luke Skywalker? De Rey? Or of Kylo Ren itself, which could also be the famous Star Wars Jedi last 8 ? Or perhaps – and this is a hypothesis that has not yet been considered – could it be someone else completely different? Well, it’s true, this last idea is pretty unlikely. However, the title ” Last Jedi ” raises another question, which itself is related to the Force. Because it could very well also … indicate the scheduled end of the Jedi order and education. In which case, yes, the title would refer to Luke (which seems to us to be the most probable hypothesis). But in this case, does that mean that, despite the former defeat of the Emperor and despite all the efforts of our hero, the Jedi are doomed to disappear ? The finding would be bitter, that’s for sure , but not necessarily catastrophic. If this is what the title implies, then what impact could this disappearance have on the galaxy but also, and especially, on the characters and intrigue of the new trilogy?
At first glance, the irremediable end of the Jedi order could seem like a real catastrophe. After all, they have watched over the galaxy for thousands of years and dispensed their wisdom through space and time. So yes, the idea of seeing them sink into oblivion again – and this time definitely – makes us a little panic! Except that in fact, if you think about it, the Jedi have not really helped the Galaxy and its inhabitants recently . They did not foresee or prevent the revolt of the Separatists, nor did they perceive the threat represented by Palpatine when he began to maneuver to overthrow the Republic. Despite their powers and sensitivity to the Force and despite their mythical dimension, the Jedi could not therefore oppose the plans of the Sith Lords. As for Luke, we admire his courage and determination, of course, but we forget a little easier than it is not him who defeated the Emperor in Return of the Jedi . Besides, our hero would have died if Darth Vader had not, in a final burst, reject the dark side of the Force to help him . So finally, the Jedi proved that they could no longer preserve peace in the galaxy, nor balance in the Force. Especially if only Luke remains and he can not train other Padawan, the future of the Jedi is rather badly engaged!
But the same can be said about the dark side and its followers. The Emperor was able to keep power for about thirty years before being overthrown, and it can be imagined that Snoke-or at least we hope so-will follow the same path. It is therefore necessary to face the facts: whether one side or the other, not to favor one pathway in the Force, in the long run, it does not work . And this is where the title of Star Wars 8 could make sense. If it is assumed that he is referring to Luke, then yes, the Jedi may be doomed to disappear entirely, Rey will follow their teachings to the end or not, Kylo Ren decides to abandon the dark side or no. This does not mean that there will be no more Force users! For, what prevents us after all to imagine that those two would be able to give birth … to a new order, which would combine the two sides of the Force ?
There is much talk about the fact that Kylo Ren is still attracted to the luminous side of the Force and that Rey, according to several theories, could ultimately succumb to the dark side. It is quite obvious that the characters remain ambivalent. Kylo Ren followed the teachings of Luke and he could redeem himself before the end of the trilogy. As for Rey, she has been abandoned as a child, and nothing tells us that she has not retained some form of bitterness and resentment. Not to mention that, having not been trained since her youngest age, she is certainly capable of the best as well as the worst. But as Melty’s copy tells you above, only following the path of the luminous side or only that of the dark side seems to lead to failure. So why could not these two characters simply kiss and use both sides of the Force, one counterbalancing the other. And finding – well! – The real balance to the Force .
Sure, Star Wars has always had a rather Manichean discourse, but the new trilogy should also correspond to our time. And come to mix with two characters at the bright side and the dark side, what is done after all human nature, might appear as a fine conclusion . Obviously, all this remains only conjecture and hypothesis, such a turnaround could take place at the very end of the trilogy, is in Star Wars 9 . But the title ” The Last Jedi ” challenges us enough for that examines the question! As always, therefore, it was not until the release of Star Wars 8 whether Luke is the last Jedi and what that might then involve Rey and the other characters of the saga! Do you think the Jedi are doomed to disappear?

Carrie Fisher aka Princess Leia in Star Wars, back on this mythical character

sivertime — Thu, 29 Dec 2016 18:15:34 +0000

Carrie Fisher will always be associated with the character of Leia. In order to pay tribute, we return to the course of this mythical and unforgettable heroine of Star Wars.
The sad news will take us by surprise. While the year 2016, particularly cruel for the world of artists (David Bowie, Prince, Alan Rickman, Anton Chekhov), ends, a new tragic death has marked our daily lives. Carrie Fisher, Princess Leia unforgettable Star Wars, died last Tuesday following a heart attack, leaving behind generations of orphans fans. If it is crossed in movies or cult series like When Harry Met Sally or Sex and the City , of course, is for his role in Star Wars that we remember most of Carrie Fisher. The iconic Leia Organa remains today one of the most famous fictional heroines – and celebrated – our culture , recognizable by its macaroons in the hair which the actress, with his usual irony, never stopped To make fun of. Today as before, we love Princess Leia for her courage, her determination, her sharp tongue too. So much so that the find in The Force Wake – certainly exhausted by decades of fighting and separated from the love of her life, Han Solo – we even had deeply moved. So in order to pay him homage, the editing of melty returns to the course of this absolutely mythical character.
Frail white silhouette with upright chin, standing straight in front of Dark Vador … this is how we discover for the first time Leia Organa, Princess of Alderaan and leading figure of the Rebel Alliance. And in a scene, you soon realize that this little girl is not only courageous and determined but she also knows how to stand up to men, even the most powerful . And in the late 1970s, marked by the increasingly powerful rise of feminism, it is not nothing. Moreover, Princess Leia, despite her title of nobility, is far from being a damsel in distress, as are presented at the time all female characters of this kind. So Luke, Han and Obi-Wan try to save her from the clutches of Darth Vader, who subjects her to torture, but we all know how it ends. In the end, it is Leia who takes command of the group and allows them to escape the Stormtroopers who took them in ambush! ” As of now, you will do what I tell you, understand? ” Balance does indeed a Han Solo a bit grumpy.
It is clear, Leia does not depend on anyone, especially a man . Not only does she shoot at the blaster but, in addition, she directs the Rebellion, a leadership role that is then often devolved to male characters. So in 1977, Leia shakes up all the codes and throws the stereotypes to the nettles! But if she is also independent and proud, it may be because she failed, for a time, to be the main heroine of the intergalactic saga. Because yes, before changing his mind and creating the character of Luke, George Lucas had planned to place a woman in the role of the main protagonist. Then the director thought of telling the story of two brothers but, faced with the lack of female characters, then chose to transform one of them into a woman. That may be why Leia has inherited this little boy missed and determined!
And Leia obviously remains true to itself throughout the trilogy , sending stroll with many scathing remarks that Han presumptuous who thinks necessary – before falling under his spell – taking the lead each time Necessary and fighting the Empire with all its energy. The couple she forms with Han is also particularly atypical. Between two well-placed gates, Leia lets see a little of her femininity, as in this poignant scene where she is doomed to see the man she likes to be cryogenized. We all remember this bit of dialogue that summarizes all by himself the relationship of the two characters: ” I love you ,” she said as Han, who replied: ” I know .” No romanticism, there is no time for it! But it is once again that Leia in Return of the Jedi did everything to save the trapped smuggler in its matrix of carbonite in Jabba’s palace, without anyone’s help. If it fails, in the end, to implement its plan, it proves once again to what extent it is determined.
And then there’s the bikini. Ah, he has made ink, this costume two pieces gilded! Representation of male fantasy for some or, conversely, means to be free of human domination for others, we can say that this outfit – the most iconic Star Wars – is kind of controversial. This is Carrie Fisher, which we showed you a few photos of the filming of Star Wars , transformed into a sex symbol, almost reified in the role of a submissive slave to the desires of a large larva of space. And yet! In spite of this bikini which reveals (almost) everything and which could symbolize its vulnerability, Leia loses nothing of its impetuosity. Is it not, after all, that chokes Jabba during the battle on the barge in Episode VI, echoing his freedom and marking, symbolically, the emancipation of women? At least it is in this way that one can understand this brutal scene but oh so satisfactory (because one agrees, eh, we hate ALL Jabba the Hutt)!
Princess with a well-tempered character and who can not be told by anyone, Leia went through decades, joining Wonder Woman or Ellen Ripley in the pantheon of the iconic female figures of pop culture. Sure, after thirty years of fighting, our heroine took a few wrinkles and lost his androgynous figure but his energy has not faded . In The Force Alarm , Leia continues to fight for what she believes, endorsing the title of General of the Resistance, as if to erase her femininity even after his personal and family life ended in pieces. But she remains that princess we loved so much in the first Star Wars trilogy, which made us laugh as much as she moved us, and whose fascinating aura did not falter. His interpreter has bent his bow, Leia is not ready to disappear from our lives. Although some of us wondered sadly will look like the future of the Star Wars saga without Carrie Fisher and incredible character. Come on, it’s time for us to plunge back into the first trilogy and fall, for the umpteenth time, under the spell of this unforgettable princess of the stars. What scene of Leia do you prefer?

Star Wars 8 and 9 without Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher), what future for the saga?

sivertime — Thu, 29 Dec 2016 18:08:58 +0000

Since the announcement of his death on 27 December, many stars to pay tribute to him, Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Daisy Ridley … For fans, impossible to conceive of the saga Star Wars without one that has contributed to the success this franchise born in 1977 . From then, the question arose for many spectators: what future for Star Wars 8 and 9 without the iconic Leia who signed his return to The Force Revival ? According to the website Making Star Wars, the rumors about future episodes often prove true, which now controls the resistance should have a crucial role in Star Wars 8 . His scenes have all been filmed since July 22nd.
The problem will therefore arise for episode 9. Obviously, impossible to replace Carrie Fisher whose actress represents Leia in the minds of almost all the spectators. In Star Wars Rogue One, in which a character of the film was nearly a Jedi , Lucasfilm production had decided to resurrect Peter Cushing through the magic of special effects. A choice strongly criticized by many and the result on the screen was not satisfactory . There is therefore likely that the writers of Star Wars 9 , scheduled for May 24, 2019, the film will adapt to the disappearance of Carrie Fisher and eliminate this possibility. The episode 8 will in turn an opportunity to pay a tribute to the actress whose sudden death has shocked fans of Star Wars . What do you think ?
