So less movie spoilers and more spoiling and sense of actually creating an enjoyable or useful conversation. I guess I misunderstood the thread title.

Thank goodness Han and Leia have been just faffing around doing jack poo poo about their murderous son until this movie started so we could have some bullshit pathos!

Good thing they signed Harrison ford on for this so that Han can literally do nothing and have no point other than to show up and get killed for some kind of shallow 'emotional impact'

Calling it right now: Rey and Anakin will have parallel stories. The point of this one is that Luke will succeed where Kenobi failed. Rey is the key piece of the bad guys evil plot, but she will succeed where Anakin jacked up.

ApexAftermath posted:If you want to watch Vader wreck poo poo at the end of the film here ya go. Not sure how long this will remain up. I thought it would be way more stalker-y and less a godlike monster playing with kids. Still cool and probably makes sense fitting in with the whole BROKEN ROBOT MAN IN CONSTANT PAIN thing, but...

They really needed to just chop the whole father storyline entirely. It was a giant waste of time on a character that was just completely flat(Jyn, I mean. Mads is charisma incarnate. Probably should have just given him the lead role.) Give that time to the other characters who are desperate for SOME kind of characterization. I love Forrest, but chop all that poo poo out, too.

Jerk McJerkface posted:My sister in law liked it. Her review was "I liked it, everyone was so cute." This causes me a bit of reflexive anger, because while it can certainly be stated that Star Trek has some scientific and drat near literary legitimacy from time to time, the cheesecake cute people factor was certainly in full effect. I mean you can sort girls into KIRK or SPOCK girls for a reason. thrawn527 posted:5 gains a lot of goodwill with me based solely on "What does God need with a starship?" And some genuinely great acting from Deforest Kelley. But it's a complete poo poo show outside of that. 5 has like four or five really amazing moments, but geez, what a mess otherwise. I mean once you read, "According to William Shatner, the film's main plot themes and elements were inspired by the televangelist movement of the late 1980s." you get more of a sense of oh, I guess that IS what they were doing, but... And Deforest Kelley was always too drat good for Star Trek, which is not at all an indictment of the series, he was just always the best part of it. edit: but I'd preorder a directors cut of V.

The whole porg thing just feels really fuckin' forced. Even in the STAR WARS context. People are just way too willing to latch onto any drat thing.

It doesn't really matter. Rey is such a non-character that it's painful. She makes Luke look complex and nuanced.

Yeah, I think it's less GIVES NO FUCKS and more IS AN ACTUAL PERSON who doesn't constantly run a SALESMAN filter whenever the talks about Star Wars. He's just being honest, but he still loves it, loves what he's doing, and wants people to enjoy it. He's totally right about the scene in the snow with the lightsaber, having Luke show up right then, maybe somehow triggered by Han dying, would have been an amazing entrance and people would have lost their poo poo.

Milky Moor posted:Sounds like it would've fit TFA perfectly then. Yeah, I am not sure how that would be discordant with the rest of the movie. Not like it was some kind of tightly plotted masterpiece where every element was logical. Maybe Luke's purposefully been severing himself from the Force for decades and isn't as strong as he used to be. That's why he lives out on a rocky island away from everything, if the Force flows through all living things, isolate yourself in a mostly dead place. But Rey is and managed to take over after Kylo knocks Luke out or something. Who knows, there's 100 bullshit possibilities that are just as "good" as anything else in TFA.

Schwarzwald posted:There would be something ironic about having the First Order spending all it's resources tracking down Luke only for him to have been hiding in their literal backyard the whole time. Oh I would figure he'd have had to travel from somewhere, it would be just too much for his lightsaber AND him to be on the same planet. Unless... he had been waiting for someone to arrive... O_O

Is it super cliche and dumb to make the statement that there's more actual thinking and proper criticism and storytelling re: Star Wars in this thread than in all the meeting rooms at Fox ever?

[quote="“spacetoaster”" post="“478369628”"] There’s a scene in the wing commander movie where everyone has to be really quiet on their spaceship so the enemy scanners can’t pick them up. [/quote] With Juergen Prochnow ffs.

Hodgepodge posted:That's got to be satire. It's absolutely serious and outed Chris Roberts as a dude who just copy/pastes cool things he sees and enjoys into his own work without any kind of value add. Wing Commander might seriously be the worst movie ever made. This kind of sums it up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gq9F4WuCcvA And IIRC, there's a scene where they have to.... push a crippled fighter off the deck and "over the side" and it falls away like on an aircraft carrier. Yeah....

HannibalBarca posted:John Boyega is a great actor but I'm still not sure what I was supposed to get out of Finn's character. Is he a brainwashed Janissary slave-soldier raised from birth rebelling against his conditioning? Because he seems a lot more like a sort of wacky everyman trying to get out of the army he was drafted into last week. This. Boyega was perfectly fine, but his character doesn't make a lot of sense based on what we've been told about him, and what we've seen.

illectro posted:Because an asteroid the size of the death star wouldn't completely destroy a planet, and a hyperdriving rock would drop out of hyperspace inside the atmosphere and not retain superluminal energies because of the interference caused by the planet. There's something funky about hyperspace through gravity wells that might make that impossible, but an object the size of the size of the death start moving at any appreciable fraction of c would absolutely destroy a planet.
