Maf Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Well I’ve played all the Resi games and only like the latest reboot. It is the same thing. I mean I also agree with you I think modern Star Wars stinks as well but you don’t get to say it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyKurosaki Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 I’ve only seen The Last Jedi once,but I liked it. The utter hate it got online just made me think “You what?” People starting a petition,demanding for it to be deleted from canon,or remade,had me think one thing. And that was “Fuck off,you idiotic crybabies”. There’s people with chronic illnesses. People with genuine problems. And these dozy bastards kick off because “This is not MY Star Wars”. Seriously. Fuck right off with that nonsense. Disliking a film is one thing. Pointless petitions is another thing entirely. I also laugh when those self-same people claim “ITS THE WORST SW EVER!!!”. Really. REALLY? Have they seen Episodes 1-3 lately? They absolutely suck. They sucked back then,and still suck now. But nope,they don’t deserve a petition to be removed from canon. Jar Jar Binks. Awful CGI. Terrible acting. “Nooooooooooooooo”. Sure. They’re cinematic delights from start to finish. Thats not to say TLJ is brilliant. It has its faults,sure. But the internet hatred for it,is absolute bollocks. And I’m personally up for wherever the next one goes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallofbooty Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Good on you Andy. Plus I saw Solo over the holidays and enjoyed it. It was fun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikzilla Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Solo's fine, it's a decent action/adventure/heist romp. Considering what a hot mess the production was it turned out ok. It's not the best movie ever made, but it's certainly not the worst. Same with The Last Jedi. I'm still not sure if I like it or not, I've watched it about 10 times now and I still can't decide. Half of it is great and half of it is a hot mess. The only thing I'm sure about with The Last Jedi is it made me absolutely ashamed to be a part of the Star Wars fandom, the hatred thrown at the movie was unacceptable. Be critical of things you love, sure, we all do, but racism, sexism, and general bullying is not criticism, it's pure hatred and anyone who takes part in harassing and threatening the cast and crew is a piece of shit human being. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmark Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 From what I can tell it was a better sounding film before Kathleen forced reshoots and removed fun then got a boring director in at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikzilla Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 The problem was there was a lot of whispering about Solo being “the best Star Wars script ever written” from a lot of people, so when Lord and Miller started playing fast and loose with it Lucas Film got scared and pulled the plug on them. The thing is, a great script doesn’t always make a great movie. And Lord and Miller are improv kings. Their own movies are mostly improv. LF should have known who they were employing. So because LF threw their toys out of the pram we ended up with an absolute patchwork of a movie that was only ‘fine’ when in should have been something better. Hopefully they’ve learned from their mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted January 2, 2019 Author Share Posted January 2, 2019 I thought it was pretty good, but I was expecting a stinking turd, so the bar was quite low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikzilla Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I’m with you. I went expecting it to be trash, and came out going “Huh, I actually had fun with that”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted January 2, 2019 Author Share Posted January 2, 2019 @RikSP with hindsight it might be too much fan service and it suffers from Star Wars being the tiniest galaxy ever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikzilla Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 I agree with that too. I did love the reveal of the hidden villain at the end because I’m a huge fan of the character, and I didn’t find a lot of the fan service as forced as it was in Rogue One, but Star Wars needs to expand and get away from these core characters. I’m hoping the Johnson trilogy and Benioff & Weiss trilogy will get away from the Skywalkers and characters/time period we know and explore something entirely new.

mmmark Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I’m only interested in episode whatever because of Richard E Grant. I hope it’s a major role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sambob Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 He is an older English actor so he will probably be a villain because Star Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikzilla Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I don’t care who he’s playing to be honest. He’s perfectly suited to be an old imperial (rumours a pointing at Thrawn), or an older member of the rebellion and former friend of Leia/Lando, or even a Jedi/Sith who’s been in hiding. No matter who he plays he’s going to be incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikzilla Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Star Wars Celebration next week so going to have loads of news and reveals. Looking forward to the Episode IX trailer and title reveal, Jedi: Fallen Order trailer and gameplay, The Mandalorian footage and synopsis, hopefully a new look at The Clone Wars season 7 as well as the line up of upcoming comics and books. I can’t wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Yeah gonna be good. Really hope Jedi Fallen Order doesn't look like Force Unleashed 3 but I fear it might. I've no idea what the Episode IX title will be at this point other than something kind of generic like 'Rebellion' or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
