1 - GUYS IF YOU CAN READ THIS, WE WERE REFERENCED ON YESTERDAY'S XKCD.
2 - I've decided I'm not following or watching any of the new Star Wars stuff unless the fandom basically loves it. Because J.J. and I have strong disagreements about how you update a franchise and what is an appropriate white man/everyone else ratio.
Also because I have one friend who was devastated about the mere possibility of de-canonizing the Star Wars expanded universe. And while I'm cheerfully amiable with ignoring any corporate directives in how I interpret my canon, I really feel for the Start Wars people out there. Fistbump of fandom, guys.
Sidenote: The fandom-based panels at Dragon*con '13 were 75% from the Star Wars track, from what I could see, and they were FANTABULOUS.
