They picked Stellan Skarsgard for the new Baron and that's a pretty good casting

Kazak posted:TheIncredulousHulk this seems like a post for you I suspect it's basically this: Saint Drogo posted:i think it's the general unfocused badness mixed with technical competence. The new movies have done an unsettlingly good job overall of aping the look and tone of the OT but don't have the same storytelling chops so it's extra frustrating to reconcile why this thing feels like it ought to work but doesn't. The prequels, on the other hand, don't really try that hard to be imitative even when they're recycling imagery and the bad aspects are straightforward and confident without trying to trick you. It's like the difference between dealing with someone who's openly a shithead vs. a shithead who's pretending to be nice

Im excited to see a movie where a major character is played by a person who is in fact a rotting corpse. I feel that Disney’s marketing hasn’t stressed this breakthrough enough

So, it looks like Star Wars is crossing over with Warcraft, what with ol' Sheev hanging out on Space Ice Crown Glacier for 30 years, sitting on the Space Frozen Throne. Can't wait for Big Ben to put on the robe because there must always be a Sith Lord.

Emp force rips out Kylos balls and Reys ovaries, uses the force to squash them into superdense protoplasm which quantum tunnels its way back though time to land in Shmi’s womb to be born as the mystery baby with no father Anakin Skywalker?

I mean. Not literally this. But they're going to use time travel to impregnate that woman with vader. It'll be because the Empire (or whatever the gently caress it is now who cares) has invented some new death star that will destroy the entire universe or something equally lame but they will instead harness its power to do the time travel loop and end the whole thing with a "Maybe this time, we'll get it RIGHT" and that will be the end of the series. lol holy poo poo

also even though they deleted the expanded universe stuff they should have done a prequel series from the REAL early days. By the time we get to Yoda and Luke, the Jedi are supposedly like 10,000+ years old and in the EU, they started off as, essentially He-man and then traded in real swords for light sabres, but hadn't figured out how to power them with hand held devices yet, so they wore giant US Military Flame thrower back packs connected to them with a hose. Who wouldn't want to see He-man in a light sabre backpack? Well I mean I wouldn't personally but you can't tell me the market wouldn't be there.

Palpatine coming back seems like it should've been kept under wraps and would've had a much bigger impact when actually watching the movie the first time. This is just making me roll my eyes. Then again maybe I'd be rolling my eyes watching the movie too.
