DeimosRising posted:I'm so sick of imaginative space operas showing me a wide variety of visually and thematically disparate places, ugh I wasn't really citing it as a negative. My favorite Star Wars films are the ones with the most imaginative locations. I just think it'd be an interesting tonal shift appropriate for one of these anthology movies. Especially after the dreck of Rogue One which included like 35 planets. Neo Rasa posted:ANH - Tatooine, Yavin IV You forgot the best one of all- Bespin. Also the Death Star definitely counts as a planet, especially in ANH. Jewmanji fucked around with this message at 23:22 on Aug 17, 2017 |

Gonz posted:The Imperials truly were the Keystone Kops of the galaxy. Theres nothing indicating Luke has any real form of ID and hes in a hella backwater farming community on a planet where other people are named Skywalker, plus nobody even knows what Vaders last name is or that he had children so theres nobody whose even going to know what to look for and what would and wouldnt be worth eleveating to Vaders intention. Like, imagine the force choking your going to get if you find out all this info begind his back and then show up with the wrong guy.

They should scrap that poo poo and make a Vader movie about him hunting down the last of the Jedi. It's a knock off of Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. Palpatine is Ramona. Clearly.

Taintrunner posted:They should scrap that poo poo and make a Vader movie about him hunting down the last of the Jedi. For maximum nerd rage they could do both. Have Vader aware of Kenobi being on Tatooine but he leaves him alone because on some level there's still good in him and they on rare occasion keep in touch. "I wanted my son to have my old lightsaber when he was old enough..." Canonize that they kinda sorta almost want to work together to covertly manipulate poo poo and destroy the Emperor so that they can accomplish the revenge of the Jedi but then Vader gives up for reasons/goes totally bad.

Obi-Wan's plan was for Vader to come to Tatooine and then they'd have their rematch. Luke kept his grandmother's surname because he was bait. But it turns out Vader still hates sand, so he never showed up, and that's when Obi-Wan improvised Plan B, which was to radicalize Luke and turn him into a weapon aimed at the Emperor at the cost of his own life.

I'm very curious to see if Mcgregor would be interested in coming back to the role. His career is fine but at the same time he's not exactly lighting the world on fire, and this would be a major payday.

Rumour has it that he showed up on his motorbike, charmed everyone, crushed the line in one take and refused payment before riding off into the sunset.

well why not posted:Rumour has it that he showed up on his motorbike, charmed everyone, crushed the line in one take and refused payment before riding off into the sunset. Part of that comes from a direct quote from JJ Abrams. JJ Abrams posted:“Here’s the cool part. We asked Ewan McGregor to come in and do the line. And he was awesome and we were very grateful. He was incredibly sweet and handsome, and all that stuff. Then he rode off on his motorcycle. Literally the coolest voice over actor ever.” Well, not the refusing payment part.

As I recall, they recorded the line, but the final cut of the film ended up using some spliced-together Alec Guinness audio from A New Hope.

From what I remember, the line is "Rey, you have taken your first step" and "Rey" is from a chopped up Guinness line (I think they cut up the word "Afraid") and the rest is McGregor.

If they don't get Ewan McGregor for this dumb movie then that just seems like they're trying too hard to distance themselves from those awful prequels. Ewan is a fine actor.

They should solidify the links to the prequels to make it easier to sell the inevitable blu ray(or more likely digital) 12 film mega pack. A Ewan McGregor Obi-Wan movie would own. That sounds much cooler than an Obi-Wan origin story with a new actor.

Imagine if Scarface stars a giant slug, and the ending is all his enemies are the one floating dead instead (in a pot, and then Scarface eats them all).

I'm only interested if they keep the stupid Episode 6 gag(?) where he sneaks up on people, battles to the death, and so-on - all while maintaining the same 'lounging on his side' pose. Like make the entire film about the filmmakers having to shoot around the fact that he's a rigid statue. Co-starring the Fuccons.
