Knives Out was great, it was probably JJ's fault TLJ was crummy. He probably had a bad influence.

Most filmmakers are perfectly capable of making both good and bad movies. There's no reason Rian Johnson should be different.

Why didn't the first order just have some of their fleet hyperspace jump ahead and then get the resistance fleet in a pincer.

John Wick of Dogs posted:TLJ really gave me the impression they were coming with their entire fleet. Guess not! The Resistance can't turn instantly but what makes you think that once out of hyperspace the First Order's ships can accelerate more quickly than the Resistance can change course? Particularly when it is literally called out that maneuverability is the Resistance fleet's advantage? edit: also, I'm pretty sure that micro hyperspace jumps or very closely plotted hyperspace jumps are much trickier in these new movies, hence why the jump into Starkiller was considered so suicidal and why the first order didn't just also warp in closer to the resistance fleet in the first place The Walrus fucked around with this message at 14:32 on Nov 29, 2019 |

Accepting that Palpatine did some kind of weird Sith magic to rise from the dead is a much easier buy-in to me than him just hanging out in exile with a seven figure number of highly trained loyalist troops and crewmen on hundreds of ships just waiting at his respawn point. I mean what, he stashed an entire second Imperial fleet and army in the Unknown Regions during his reign just as a contingency? And if we buy that, then all those Sith Troopers and starship captains gotta be in their what, 60's, 70's?

Please do not "think about this". This movie is not designed for such "scrutiny". Please just experience the product as is intended and, again, do not "think about it" too much. Thank you and have a wonderful day, consumer

The Walrus posted:it is literally called out that maneuverability is the Resistance fleet's advantage? (Not the first time this theory has happened.) They have to have enough ships that they could send some to the planet the rebels are headed toward, right? The rebels can maneuver all they want until the tanks run dry. So the First Order must not have those ships. It seems like the Casino Planet People probably have more ships and guns than the First Order - since they're the ones supplying both sides - so they could put down this whole thing anytime they want. We can therefore conclude that the rest of the galaxy just leave these people alone because they're assholes. They're bleeding Leia dry of her trust fund by continually selling Darth Vader memorabilia and The new trilogy are literal trust fund babies fighting over a garbage pile. Zzulu posted:CONSUME

Palpatine actually did die, but as a force ghost he went down to the forest moon of Emdor and possessed the fetus of Kylo Ren and then just laid low for a few decades. That's why Kylo's actions are so inexplicable, sometimes he's controlled by a force ghost.

That's also why Kylo Ren has a huge funkopop collection and an addiction to huffing space paint. Force Ghost Palpatine

The explosion of the 2nd death star scatterwd the emperors DNA throughout the galaxy and he can regenerate from a single cell, like Cell. The movie will end with the skywalker's destroying him with a full family force-kamehameha. Or so we think, Episode 10: The Emperorses Reveangeses.
