I think that's the "fake" version that's been floating around that features tracks like:

"The Falcon Explodes", "Jar Jar Dies", and "Luke's Noble End".

TPM was pretty low key with their titles lol. Should have just called the one track "Qui-Gon kicks the bucket!"

Carrie Fisher interviews Daisy Ridley: http://www.interviewmagazine.com/film/daisy-ridley

My favorite Fisher quotes:

Well, you should fight for your outfit. Don't be a slave like I was.
And Keira Knightley. You just ruined her career.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (2015, Abrams) S: Hamill, Ford, Fisher

I always thought that her costume should have been called "[Jabba's] prisoner Leia". He didn't really make her do any work that would be associated with being a slave. He just kept her chained up by him. I suppose if Jabba had been able to keep her long enough that she would have been made to dance for him which would satisfy the work required in being called a slave. Or are we to assume that Jabba did make her dance, or do other stuff, after she was captured but before Luke showed up?

I agree. "Slave" is a bit strong when describing being forced into bondage and made to wear a humiliating hyper-sexual costume.

As far as I'm concerned Leia was asking for it with that suggestive gender-bending bounty hunter cosplay while surrounded by men. She deserved everything she got.

Uh, yeah, there's definitely a suggestion that Jabba's slaves were doing a lot more than just dancing for him. Why else would his Twilek slave try so hard not to get pulled up to his dias while she was dancing? It certainly wasn't because she was so in love with the art of dance.

Yeah, the movies can't go there because they have to keep it PG but I always thought they were basically sex slaves. Dancing is just the foreplay.

How Jabba has sex I really really really do not want to know, but I doubt he kept female slaves in skimpy outfits just to do nothing but dance for him.

The other way to look at it is that she'd rather die than get raped again.

Did Jabba even have a dick? Was he just doing cunnilingus with that giant tongue, or was it something kinkier like scat?

Slugs are hermaphrodites, having both female and male reproductive organs. Once a slug has located a mate, they encircle each other and sperm is exchanged through their protruded genitalia. A few days later, the slugs lay around thirty eggs in a hole in the ground, or beneath the cover of an object such as a fallen log.

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Hutt

Hutts were physiological anomalies as they possessed traits from many different species. Similar to sea mammals, their nostrils could close and their large lungs allowed them to stay submerged underwater for hours at a time. Like worms, they were hermaphroditic and thus possessed both male and female sex organs. And they had the marsupial trait of bearing their young one at a time and nourishing them in a brood pouch in the body.[6] Despite these many characteristics, they were generally classified as gastropods by scientists due to their hermaphroditic nature and slithering, slug-like manner of their movement.

Seems like Anakin, Obi Wan, and Yoda were fine w/ luke at the end of RotJ.

I could believe that he may struggle w/ it cuz he had some half assed training cuz... life but not all out Dark Side.

Not even close to the worst Christmas-associated Star Wars thing.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (2015, Abrams) S: Hamill, Ford, Fisher

I don't see how a battery commercial is spolerific. Just kids playing Star Wars. And what kid doesn't pretend to use lightsabers when playing star wars? Kids playing with guns is a no no but swords are still ok. They used different colors so viewers can easily tell them apart. Green & blue sabers have been used in SW since 1983. The girl is dressed like the heroine from the film. No different then an 80's commercial having a girl dressed as Leia or a 200x commercial having a girl dressed as Padme. The boy is dressed in generic Jedi robes which we haven't seen so far in any promo material.

So unless the movie has the Empire attacking some kid jedis living in the suburbs, I see nothing spoilers in it.
