I didn’t even know he’d be in it until reading the program before the show and realizing that Oh poo poo, Palpatine is here. I saw him play Timon in the Broadway version of The Lion King and he really captured the essence of ancient Japanese puppet theater.

CharlestheHammer posted:I can’t imagine going to the theatre for 1 or 2. Those movies are so boring. 1 has at least 20-30 genuinely good, fun minutes in it, between a lot of stuff that ranges from "Childrens Adventure Comedy" to "Boring SF Drama" 2 is just garbage. I think its the only movie I've ever fallen asleep watching, and I've done it more than once.

Yeah, like others have said, the podrace and Duel of the Fates on the big screen alone are worth the price of admission This would also be the first time I see any of the prequels after the rise of Prequel Memes, which should be a fun recontextualization Waffleman_ fucked around with this message at 15:37 on Feb 12, 2024 |

I saw it in theaters as a kid who grew up loving the original trilogy and I remember being massively disappointed by it even then. If your Star Wars movie can't have kids raving about it, what's even the loving point?

Honestly, I've seen every star war on the big screen at this point, and im pretty content. Unless somehow they can re-release the original versions of the OT (i dont give a flying poo poo if it's the 80's versions, or the 95 version. Any pre special ed version of that poo poo please thank you)

Mr. Fantastic should have a massive juicy badonkadonk because presumably he can stretch that caboose at will.

I've always thought the fantastic four's story kind of sucked. Characters kind of suck. So the movies kind of sucking didn't surprise me.

Fantastic four work best if you lean into what it is a Sci fi story with super heroes. None of the movies really do that
