I hope Episode IX keeps the "ROT[x]" pattern going. "Rebalancing of the Force", maybe?

Has it been laid out what the franchise progression is going to be? Do we know episode IX is going to be a definitive ending for the current cast of character's story, or is there a chance they're just going to keep on coming? If IX is a distinctive ending, are they going to start up a new storyline that gets roman numerals?

I think I just got the best 'meta' joke in all of Star Wars Vader's Star Destroyer is called the Executor, because George Lucas was the Executive Producer on it (as well as ROTJ) Kylo Ren's Star Destroyer is the Finalizer because Disney finalizes everything in TFA fcuk

Han Solo, captain of the Millennium Falcon, was killed when his underling Dicc Wompman accidentally dropped an arc welder into a pool of Rhydonium fuel, blasting his commanding officer apart. Dicc then took advantage of the situation he found himself in, stealing Han's Imperial identification card and using it to go home.

If you ever doubt that Lucas knew exactly what he was doing in AOTC:"Lucas" posted:"It wasn't that the writing of it was so difficult....I'd done a bit of writing a love story in American Graffiti, so writing wasn't the challenge. The challenge was that I wanted to tell the love story in a style that was extremely old-fashioned, and, frankly, I didn't know if I was going to be able to pull it off. In many ways, this was much more like a movie from the 1930's than any of the others had been, with a slightly over-the-top-poetic style- and they just don't do that in movies anymore. I was very happy with the way it turned out in the script and in the performances, but I knew a lot of people might not buy it. A lot of guys were going to see this movie, and most guys think that flowery, poetic kind of talk is stupid- "Come on, give me a break". More sophisticated, cynical types also don't buy that stuff. So I didn't know if people would laugh at it and throw things at the screen, or if they would accept it". Whether or not it "worked", it was very intentional.

SHISHKABOB posted:Old fashioned romance is creepy as hell from our modern perspective. One of the interesting things about AotC old school romance is that it reverses the age dynamic, 30s-40s romance films are filled with 18 year old girls in relationships with older men but almost never the latter (All That Heaven Allows rode the gender flip as its whole marketing gimmick, albeit in the 50s). If George had gone whole hog and included a typical period love scene it would almost certainly play as a rape or borderline rape now.

Dear George, p. sure talking about sand isn't flowery poetic language, and maybe you just suck at believable character dialogue.

There's a difference between structured , poetic language and the absolute garbage rear end teenage drek Lucas wrote. 'not naturalism' is far from it's problem.

The dialog is not the way it is because he attempted naturalism and failed, but because he attempted a different style. It is, for that reason, weird to talk about being bad at writing naturalistic dialog in this context.
