Why on earth are people buying tickets to see this movie? You're just going to encourage them to keep making more!!

I'm committed to seeing this. I've watched all the prequels and sequel trilogy in theater so far so I might as well finish it. Hell, I saw all the Resident Evil movies in theater so I feel that I've trained enough to survive ROS.

Most of the first impressions seem to be positive with a few outliers so I'm looking forward to seeing this. Based on everything I've heard about the film so far I'm guessing that reviewers who were fans of TFA and who are generally just fans of a traditional star wars story will enjoy it and give it a good review, the reviewers who love to be contrary and adored TLJ will hate it because it plays it safe and puts the series back on the tracks after Rian's derailment. I think the general audience and most itt who don't give a gently caress about being subversive and just want a fun star wars film will come out of it satisfied though. But like TFA we'll come out enjoying it and just shrug and say it was OK a few months later. There's zero expectations for this I think and the best we can hope for is a competently made adventure film and that's JJ's specialty.

It sounds like it's exactly what everyone was expecting and it's a slightly longer, slightly darker TFA. I'll enjoy watching it. My hope is that the entire thing isn't JJ's standard frenetic style but I'm sure that's a futile hope.

QuarkJets posted:. Instead buy a ticket to an actually good movie, like Dark Waters or Knives Out, Both these movies are good. Dark Waters is good. Knives Out is a fun little murder mystery. Rain Johnson really knows how to create a fun little character based film. Of course, to me he’s always going to be the man who forever destroyed Star Wars . And for that, I truly thank him.

I was watching The Mandalorian last night and in it some dude sets off a distress signal from a ship and the New Republic sends a squad of 3 X-Wings to check it out. It occurred to me as it happened that some rando guard was able to push a button and summon a larger New Republic military force than any we've seen them bring to bear against the First Order in either of the first two Sequel movies, because they actually haven't brought any force to bear at all and it's all been some weird para-military group in the Resistance. Anyway I thought it was pretty funny, thanks for reading.

Are they gonna try to tie that show in with the movie since it's been so successful? Like did the last minute edits include jamming a baby Yoda into the movie?

I thought the way the prison ship worked kind of helped support how the New Republic dismisses of the FO as just another "fringe warlord cosplaying empire" threat. Better than anything they actually set up in TFA itself, TBH. 5 years after Endor they're drawn down to the point where they staff a ship full of dangerous prisoners, including at least one uniformed Imperial die-hard officer, with one guy with a panic button and a bunch of robots. 25 more years they would be tired enough of all these Star Wars to say "sure, sure, senator leia, the first order out in the middle of nowhere is building a super weapon and isn't just another pissant german documentarian with a handful of grubby 60 year old stormtroopers. We'll send it to the defense subcommittee for investigation. Anyway moving on to space-wheat subsidies for Naboo...."

Normally I'd agree with you but I would bet that a large chunk of those saying it was bad are TLJ fans going by the reasons they've disliked it. Also tons of Star Wars reviewers praised TLJ and look how terrible that was.
