In the age of splitting the last movie of a series into 2 films for maximum fun and profit, I wouldn't put it past Disney to announce this isn't a trilogy, and reveal Episode X. Ten movies and you have a capstone for the entire thing with Episode 10. Makes it a neat lil' package

I hated Rogue One, but liked the Force Awakens and absolutely love this. I love the fact that Finns mission ended in failure. People gently caress up and make mistakes and despite having the best intentions, consequences happen. It goes with the theme of hot headedness isn't always a virtue.

I particularly enjoyed Snoke's getup. Dude was dressed in a golden robe like last days on earth Hugh Hefner. All we needed were a few shots of him creeping around the ship with his posse to complete the look.

Ah yep, the good old days when everyone just got to be way more terrible behind closed doors or within the confines of their town and you never heard or talked about it. Good times, those. business hammocks posted:Why did they call them laser swords in this one? Is there a no-saying-zombie-in-a-zombie-movie rule in effect? IIRC, it’s what Luke called it in ANH before Obi-Wan told him the proper name. Presumably the term was outlawed- or at least repressed- when the Empire took over and set about wiping out the Jedi legacy. Remember that Han sees the Jedi as these, like, quasi-mythical witch doctors from a far gone age but he was probably alive at the time of the Jedi purge. Vader also makes a point of emphasizing its name when he sees that Luke has built his own, as though it were something that only a person aware of the Jedi and Sith would know. So: 1) Yeah, it’s deliberately a term that most people in this universe either wouldn’t know or wouldn’t use. 2)Luke is absolutely throwing shade on the Jedi by deliberately misusing/feigning ignorance of their terminology and customs. He’s not using the proper name because gently caress the Jedi.

teagone posted:Anakin called lightsabers laser swords in TPM. And Luke calls them that at the beginning of ANH. It’s a recurring shorthand in the series for “the Jedi don’t exist or don’t have any influence here.” In ANH it sets up the idea that the Jedi were wiped out and their legacy suppressed by the Empire. In TPM it (and midichlorians) sets up the idea that the Jedi are more of a political or benevolent paramilitary force for the Republic than some order of supernatural galactic heroes standing up for the Light Side of the Force across the universe. It shows that, even in the Republic era at the height of Jedi power, there are backwater planets full of slavery and injustice where the Jedi can’t or won’t go and nobody even knows what the Force is. It sets them up to be the hubristic organization that falls right into Palpatine’s plans. trilobite terror fucked around with this message at 14:35 on Dec 19, 2017 |

Not as clumsy or random as a blaster. An elegant weapon, for a more civilized age" Luke watched the prequels while on Ach To

I think lids have been sufficiently flipped by TLJ, only now you're reading about those who didn't enjoy their lids having been flipped or how it was flipped. Also, everyone is an amateur visual director and hobbyist script writer now.

My only complaint with this film is that they should have manufactured a better Ticking Clock than “we have to keep outrunning the star destroyer until we run out of fuel.” Pretty much everything else was rock-solid, and everyone in this thread who says otherwise is trying hard to be a Cinema Discusso contrarian. Worst Thread Ever continues to deliver.
