Me included! It’s madness yo! Star Wars means a whole lot to me. And it always will no matter how frustrated I am with people who like or dislike it or whatever in between.

CelticPredator posted:I’ll probably like it though. Unlike you who will bitch and bitch endlessly as you poo poo yourself because Rey wins or something The issue with the film is more that it’s badly edited, the narrative is compromised by studio-mandated reshoots, the action scenes are largely poorly done, it’s overreliant on expository dialogue, it’s deeply conservative, none of the jokes land, it doesn’t actually function as a commentary on the rest of the series, and there are zero interesting designs.

CelticPredator loves to debate the merits of TLJ but never actually reacts to any meaningful criticism brought up in this thread and instead just brings up poo poo nobody cares about. "you bunch hate TLJ because Holdo has purple hair lol"

Its loving coded responses too - he's implying if you don't like TLJ you're an alt-right CHUD who can't get over the fact that there is a woman in star wars! gently caress him, double gently caress TLJ and triple gently caress CHUDS.

I was pretty excited when I saw the yellow intro text scroll by in TFA, and I walked out pretty done with Star Wars, and TLJ just did the equivalent of a mercy killing of my love for the franchise

according to the rumor-based article that this is based on, it's not the emperor returning, just a hologram of the emperor appearing in a vault that kylo ren breaks into

The article cites Express, which is a tabloid that regularly cites Mike Zeroh for their Star Wars rumors, who is basically the modern Supershadow

Paul Saltines is the GOAT and I hope he shows up and says "DO IT" or maybe he's holding a pair of Nikes and he says "JUST DO IT" and then looks directly into the camera for a moment.

I mean I'm still a fan and I still care about the universe. Just because a lot of blogs don't like a movie I liked isn't going to make me not give a poo poo. I didn't start liking the Star War because my friends or random people did.

Just think of Star Wars as the original trilogy only. Skip everything that came after it.

Sure, why not? It's not like we're getting a coherent story out of this trilogy anyway, let's at least get some more Ian McDermott ham.

I think the mods told him to knock it off because they were sick of all the reports, so he exiled himself from star war posting. At least we still have his less funny older brother celtic predator

Yay actual spoilers... I guess. If I cared just a little more I’d find that picture of Dewey saying “I expected nothing and I’m still disappointed.”
