Ok so I assume this has been discussed before but I don't want to dig through the thread. Rose and Finn are told to find the code breaker who has a red blossom on the Monaco planet, they see a dude with the red blossom pin but they don't get to him, BDT offers to help them, they decide to give up on getting to the guy with the actual pin that whatsherface says they can identify him by because BDT opens their cell and go on with their plan. So like, BDT was a plant the whole time and they just went with him due to time constraints or was he the actual code breaker they were told about but for some reason someone else had the red blossom pin? Star Wars is dumb as hell. When I went in watching it, I was still thinking "Wait so like the Rebels who beat the Empire are now the Resistence despite beating the Empire?" because they never loving explained that initially and this whole new series is a clusterfuck but I'll just watch it anyways because bleh.

ChickenMedium posted:No. They couldn't get to the pin guy because they were in jail. In jail, they met another codebreaker and since he helped them escape they figured "good enough" and then when they got caught he immediately sold them out because he doesn't give a poo poo about the Resistance. He wasn't some First Order deep cover operative, he was just a dude. That's dumb as hell. They didn't figure to try to get to the original dude who apparently knew Wise Glasses Lady after being broken out of jail? Like I get that they kind of were forced to go with BDT at the end but between getting out of jail and getting onto the ship he and BB8 stole, they didn't even try to get to Red Blossom Guy.

Isn’t his suit armored? Might just be able to take blaster shots without the force involved. That reminds me of one of the best RLM videos where Mike and Rich read the absurd Wookieepedia article on Vader’s suit.

I think you’re underestimating the “we must have an OT call back!” fan service calculation but who knows E: Not that I think he won’t have an ANH arc in the movie. Just that there will be that phrase or sentiment from his love interest a la Leia in the OT. Dr.Radical fucked around with this message at 13:20 on Feb 6, 2018 |

I dunno what the deal is with people and how much they hate the holiday special. I had a fun time watching it! Granted I was stoned as hell with a bunch of friends but that’s how you should watch Star Wars stuff anyway.

If Kojima was a true Star Wars fan he would have gotten Mark Hamill to voice a Metal Gear villain at some point.

Wheat Loaf posted:I'm more in sympathy with the latter, although I did enjoy the scene (I was very surprised in the cinema when it happened). Yeah it was good and I enjoyed it. I guess from some Star Wars fan perspective you want more back story to obsess over but I still had plenty of fun when I saw it. For example when I was a kid I got the character book and the vehicle book and loved the hell out of them and spent plenty of summer vacation nights reading them. This was generally before the internet was widespread so it was an aggregate of the comics and novels. Now I generally just go to movies these days with the intention of having fun and not thinking too much about things. It’s just more fun that way.

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Criticizing the space tactics is so weird to me. Star wars space fleet engagements work like the space fleet veteran commanders say it does because reasons. It has never made sense. Well throughout the Star Wars movies the space battles have been basically World War II naval and aerial battles and this seems to continue into the new movies (Rogue One, someone mentioned taking out a Star Destroyer with some Y wings. That’s p much sinking the Bismarck with torpedo planes. Also in TLJ it’s still that same sort of thing including the loving arching artillery shots) so I don’t see why we shouldn’t think of them as such and apply that reasoning to the space battles in the movie. Of course also the reason why stuff doesn’t make sense is because it’s a movie and they’re not thinking of tech poo poo or actual strategy just how it moves the plot along.

Tom Guycot posted:Thats the other thing I think I dislike about the new films, they're cargo cult star wars. They're not made by people with the same influences and desires and inspirations as Lucas had, they're just a second generation copy of that without a love for what inspired it all to begin with. We’re talking about Star Wars here not the Simpsons come on now
