not that post-90's star wars would ever suggest that banging occurs and that it isn't a universe where babies are magiced into the womb by space god

It was loving great you uppity nerds... all of it...

super loving small complaints and questions...
- at one point in the movie I thought to myself most of these characters are pretty bland... then they all died and I found I cared about them more than I thought, but not enough to start crying like a bitch, so the characters were perfect.
- Darth Vaders voice didnt seem right
- when the old rebel leader chick and jimmy smits were talking... Jimmy says "I'll find my jedi friend that has been in hiding" (I'm thinking obi-wan of course) Then I think he says "I know I can trust HER"... maybe I miss heard or maybe I missed something and he was talking about Obi and Leia...


to people saying it was boring until the last 5 minutes... that is just loving wrong... perhaps the rest of the movie is "boring" in comparison with the last 5 minutes, BUT THAT IS MOSTLY BECAUSE THE LAST 5 MINUTES IS THE ONLY NON-PORN SCENE PUT TO FILM THAT GOT MY DICK HARD FOR THE LAST 40 YEARS!!!

If this ending didnt happen this movie would still be better than the prequels and TFA. I think with the ending it had... it may be better than empire. and i cant believe I'm even contemplating that.

EDIT... 40 years
Jimmy mentioned his jedi friend in hiding, then someone else asked who would they send or something, then he he said he knows someone and he can trust her or whatever. The implication is definitely leia.

He had to go to Alderaan to warn them. <sad trombone>

I'm worried that they'll try to address the cast's diversity in the Half in the Bag review. RLM is kinda at their weakest when trying to address (or dismiss) race.

I thought they cast Maggie Gyllenhaal as Leia for a couple moments.

I like this movie as it felt original and for most part well done. It's not going to win any Oscars for anything but it is far better than that Hack Fraud JJ Abrams ever will be. The final space battle was so much better done than the one in TFA. It wasn't just throw poo poo at the screen like random fireworks hoping to blind you. You quickly cared a enough for these guys and they were god drat heroes when they arrived.

I don't know :wtf: wrong with Tarkin but who ever did his voice hosed up. No where near British or menacing enough. All the Imperial officers weren't British enough, it was weak sauce.

Anyone laugh when the rebels got to some waist high walls? poo poo is out of a video game.

He had to go see you his people. Maybe he was chicken poo poo, I don't know. Either way he needed to be moved out of the way.

The cast diversity worked well, it would have been nice to have a full on Alien in the main group. But a Mon Cal screaming out the obvious ala Admiral Akbar is good enough.

Imperial officers weren't that British in the originals though. In IV, at least, several are American. Agree that Tarkin sounded off. And speaking of CGI faces, Leia's reveal was dumb. What was she doing just standing with her back to the door in that room?

I actually really liked the bits of "primitive" technology in the film such as the data needing to be physically extracted on somewhat large discs, and Omar from Four Lions having to lay down some thick coaxial cable from a spool and plug in to be able to trasmit a radio signal.

It took 18 years to build the first one, so I imagine they started building the second just a few years after they started the first one. Talking about counting your chickens before they hatch.

there has only been 2 deathstars (1 1/2 actually physically)... the deathstar in rogue one is the same one in a new hope and then the unfinished but fully operational on in JEDI...

then TFA had a deathstar made out of a planet which was just stupid

I had to go with it because he was confident enough with it that he didn't retract it immediately, look at the floor, shrugging and mumbling while Mike clenched his purple fists, temple veins throbbing, winding up to batter him for disagreeing.

Without quips the audience will be asking

"Is this some kind of dark gritty re-imagining?"
or
"Why did the movie stop telling me when to laugh?"
or
"Is that robot some kind of walking margarita mixer?"
