Kylo's face gets melted and somehow he ends up with a less weird face. For some reason this instantly kills reylo forevermore

Why does disneys blandness work in marvel but not in star wars?

as far as the mainstream audience is concerned marvel might as well have not existed before the MCU (except like, x-men and spiderman but that's another conversation)

meanwhile the star wars films are some of the most well-known celebrated movies of all time, there's decades-worth of strong nostalgia in people's minds about those films so that'll set different expectations

I suspect the face-melting scene will just be a flashback to RotS.

In the case of Boyega and Isaac, I have the feeling they weren't too happy about playing 'goofy black guy comic relief' and 'hotheaded, misogynistic Latino.'

Wait there's a latino in star wars?

Oscar Isaac is his stage name, his full name is Óscar Isaac Hernández Estrada. He was born in Guatemala. I won't pretend I didn't look that up on Wikipedia, but he is recognizably Latino. It is funny that studios have cast him as Jewish, Egyptian, Italian, and Slovakian though.

Eyyyy, hell yeah! There's a sizable variation in literal race in Guatemala, yeah. It's a Spanish colonialism thing.

Yes but his name in the movie isn't latino. He isn't portrayed as Latino. He doesn't speak spanish. His name is Poe Dameron for fucks sake. If anything he's portrayed as Italian.



Also making good Star Wars films is actually very very easy.

See you go, find a really good classic japanese/western film, change the characters to jedi/sith and rebels/empire and that's all you loving need to do.

That's why Rogue One is good, it's just a Star Wars version of Seven Samurai/The Magnificent Seven.

Just as A New Hope is The Hidden Fortress/Stagecoach.

They should have just adapted The Good the Bad and the Ugly and been done with it.

You know, that would be pretty cool. Star Wars themed remakes/ripoffs of other, more successful films. At least we know we'd get something proven to be doable.

TFA at least had Rey’s Theme and Jedi Steps, does TLJ have any memorable music at all? I’ve seen it several times and nothing sticks. The movie is so devoid of sweep and grandeur.

the music when the fathiers are rampaging (especially when they are running across the moonlit beach thats classic john williams right there), and when luke faces down the first order at the end owns. The Resistance Theme, Kylo's Theme, and Rey's theme are all so good though I enjoy most of the music where they return in various forms, like the throne room scene.

Nevermind that Diego Luna was out promoting the movie and bringing up how big of a deal this is for Latino actors.

Maybe keep your uneducated ideas on race out of here or maybe you can show us what a "Real Latino" looks like.
