Star Wars 7 Title Revealed Plus Plot Details Revealed!

THIS IS AN APRIL FOOL'S JOKE!

BUT DON'T GIVE AWAY

THE JOKE!

I just happened to hear from someone very familiar with George Lucas who leaked to me what the proposed title of the new Star Wars movie set to be released in 2015 is going to be.

The title of the first of the sequel trilogy movies is "Star Wars: Rise of The New Rebellion".

Here are details of what happens in the 7th installment:

It is set around 30 years after Return of The Jedi. The Jedi Council is back again, this time with Luke Skywalker as the highest Jedi on the council. R2D2 and C3P0 are aboard a ship that looks very similar to the one they were aboard at the beginning of the original Star Wars movie and they are traveling around nearby galaxies trying to find young people who may be strong in the force.

R2D2 and C3PO then arrive at a planet totally unaware that a bad guy who has a lot of knowledge about droids is scheming to put a virus type code in their system that when activated remotely will cause the droid to do their bidding. This bad guy is successful in programming R2D2 with this virus code and R2D2 goes back to the new Jedi Temple without realizing that it had been compromised.

After R2D2 returns to the Jedi Temple, 2 Jedi who have yet to be named in the script, are ambushed by some droids on another far off planet. They are both captured after a lengthy battle with the droids and a ransom type message is sent to the Jedis in the council.

Luke senses something is not right, and that there may be someone who is a Sith is involved since they were able to successfully capture 2 Jedis. The Jedi Council send many Jedi to this planet as they are rather unaware who they are dealing with. The bad guys realize their plan to divert many of the Jedi away from the planet that is home to the Jedi has worked making the Jedi Council much more vulnerable.

Then R2D2 gets the virus code activated remotely and R2D2 then uses its instruments to tap into computers and bombs on the Jedi Council's planet that were likely hidden over a long period of time and sets them to blow up.

In the minutes just before the detonation of the Jedi Temple is to take place, Luke begins to realize that something is going down at the Jedi Temple. He gets R2D2 and tells the other members of the Jedi Council that they must evacuate immediately.

The bombs detonate as Luke is flying off in an X Wing type figher with R2D2 in back. At this point a few members of the Jedi Council are killed along with either Lando or Chewie (this part is still being debated by George Lucas as to which one dies at that point).

With all of the Jedi scattered in space after the explosion there are a bunch of evil ships that have Imperial Tie Fighter type appearances (AKA the new rebellion meaning that the rebellion in the title are actually bad guys this time around). A few more Jedi are killed off before they are able to make it to a new safe location.

After Han learns of the death of either Lando or Chewie, (considered more likely to be Lando at this point), and the fact the Jedi have decided to lay low for a while, Han decides he wants to get revenge for the death of his friends and take matters into his own hands and rushes to the planet where the original 2 Jedi are still being held prisoner. He asks for Luke's help and Luke reluctantly agrees to go with him on what might very well be a suicide mission.

Luke and Han arrive at the planet to find that almost the entire Jedi force sent to the planet had been killed off. They manage to find a Jedi who is still barely alive and learn from him that they were ambushed by Sith warriors.

Luke and Han eventually encounter several battle droids and do some battling. Luke is then shocked by what appears to be a Sith warrior who appears to be almost identical to Darth Maul but is not named in this movie. He is put into a chamber where he is froze similar to Han in Empire and the Sith warrior leaves the planet with Luke's body.

Han appears to be about to be killed fighting off the other evil forces on the planet when a few Jedi come and save Han. They regroup on another planet and eventually learn about the R2D2 virus code and the movie ends with Han, Leia and a few other Jedi vowing to search the galaxy for their missing leader.

One more important detail about this movie will be revealed when you highlight the top of this post that you will sure want to know about!

Amazon is once again having a Free App of the Day Greatest Hits Promotion

Wow! I haven't posted since last year, and ironically the last post of 2012 is about what I am posting about today for my first post of 2013. The Amazon App Store is giving away 18 (yes you read that correctly!) apps that were previously free apps of the day but for today only so you only have a few hours left to get these for free!

Among these "Greatest Hits" are Bejeweled 2, Final Freeway (very similar to classic arcade game Out Run), Puss and Boots Fruit Ninja game, and a bunch of others that are lesser known in most cases.

By the way, this is NOT an April's Fool's Joke, even though I might do one in the near future. I am just warning you ahead of time!

Sorry I haven't posted here in this blog in quite a while. I have been busy observing and planning what I am going to do in the coming months and years.

I hope to post again within the next few weeks if things go OK.

An Ironic Segment for NBC's Hoda and Kathie Lee portion of this morning's Today show

First, I want to congratulate those who won their elections even though I don't agree with the direction this country is headed in. But I don't want to discuss politics today since we have been crammed with this stuff for months.

Instead I want to mention the rather ironic segment on the Kathie Lee and Hoda part of this morning's Today show on NBC.

I found it very odd that Kathie Lee and Hoda are talking about tips to prevent being hacked with a computer expert even though NBC's own website (YES, NBC the company!) was hacked just this past Sunday by a computer hacker.

Not one mention of the successful hacking attempt was mentioned during this segment. This is not really surprising since NBC does not want to embarrass itself, but the problem is the public has the right to know, and therefore NBC News has the duty to report news that is negative to their own company.

I just thought how ironic it was that NBC is giving information on how to prevent a breach from a hacker. I would have probably found the segment somewhat more credible if NBC wouldn't have tried to hide the fact that they have computer security issues themselves.

NBC.COM apparently has been hacked

Just wanted to let people know that NBC.COM appears to have been hacked by some Nigerians. This is not very comforting to know since this is happening so close to a presidential election here in the states. You might want to be careful when going to NBC.COM right at the moment.

This election year is getting ugly

I am back after several months because I have been rather busy the last several months, and I am getting very frustrated with the current election year political tactics. Therefore, I want to let some of my thoughts known.

The race that is really getting me the most frustrated right now is the Washington State Governor's Race between Congressman Jay Inslee and the Attorney General Rob McKenna.

This race is so ugly now since the Seattle Times newspaper has made some very poor choices in judgment.

For example, they publish an article just a week and a half before Election Day and after ballots have already been mailed out that makes Rob McKenna out to be a frequent traveler on the job going to places such as Disneyland during his days as Attorney General. Jay Inslee, who has already aired many misleading ads about McKenna during this campaign, quickly used the article in his new commercials with The Seattle Times logo making this look like a very negative fact about McKenna.

Why is it so bad about The Seattle Times running this article?

First, the article is a little biased favoring Inslee by making McKenna the main subject of the article.

Second, McKenna does not get a chance to debate this with his opponent on live TV before the election.

Third, it is too close to the actual election.

Fourth, this information was made available by McKenna a long time ago as it was public disclosure information.

and let me bring up a fifth reason that most people are not aware of:

Fifth, McKenna's daughters are now being used to make their own Dad look bad.

How is the fifth reason possible? Well it goes back to that Disneyland trip. It was actually for a conference that was a legitimate trip attended by other Attorney Generals from other nearby states.

What has happened is that one of his daughters happened to go to Disneyland with their Dad and innocently posted a Twitter picture taken at the amusement park.

Well someone against the McKenna campaign found this and are now using this as proof that McKenna was maybe abusing public money.

I find these types of political attacks offensive. Children shouldn't be used to discredit their political parent. With attacks like these, it is no wonder why there is a shortage of good politicians, both Democrat and Republican.

As for whether or not McKenna went to Disneyland funded by taxpayers, maybe he did, but even if you want to assume he did, why is going on a vacation with your family such a negative thing?

Would you have rather seen that money go towards something else such as his pension fund or more TV campaign ads that are already too frequently airing right now?

I didn't think so.

Even though there may have been some bad tactics used by McKenna's camp in this campaign, my vote is still for Rob McKenna. Sorry Jay Inslee, you lost my vote due to your rather misleading ads and your supporters dirty tactics which are way worse than your opponent McKenna's campaign.

What was that something that happened today that made me think Michael J. Fox would make a better presidential candidate than Obama or Romney?

Answer: The NBC Today Show this morning.

Now let me explain what I am talking about.

This morning they had announced several times throughout the Today show that Anderson Cooper, a news personality at CNN, revealed he is gay. Well later in the 9AM hour of the Today Show, some interesting information was revealed by Willie Geist, who is filling in for Matt Lauer since Lauer is most likely on vacation until the Ann Curry situation settles down.

What I was unaware of was that Willie Geist's father is Bill Geist who is a regular on CBS Sunday Morning. I was also unaware until that segment which didn't air until the 9AM hour that his father Bill announced the other day that he has Parkinson's.

Now here is the AHA part!

Why is Anderson Cooper getting so much news attention for coming out being gay while Bill Geist revealing he has Parkinson's is getting hardly any attention? This is so wrong on many levels, especially considering they are even in the same occupation!

Is it that we have accepted that Parkinson's awareness is not important in this country these days? Parkinson's is still a major issue in the health field despite many scientific discoveries.

So back to my original question, why would Michael J. Fox make a better president than Romney or Obama?

Because President Obama gets more attention for coming out saying he is for Gay Marriages than if he talks about Parkinson's while Mitt Romney does not look like the type of guy who has had to deal with a health issue like Parkinson's and even if he did he could afford the best doctors unlike most Americans.

If Michael J. Fox was president, a cause like Parkinson's awareness would not take a back seat to politics, and Parkinson's would get the news coverage it deserves.

Sadly, there is one problem with Michael J. Fox becoming President: Even though he is a dual Canadian/American citizen, he was born Canadian!! What a shame!
