I watched ROTS yesterday and still hated it the most out of the PT. I just don't buy the fall and everything else was overdone.

The only good review would have been "I didn't see JJ taking it there". This movie will be just ok when the dust settles. Lower your expectations.

Josh Lyman posted:Yeah, I think Inception was digital but Interstellar was 70mm. I bought advanced tickets for Interstellar IMAX 70mm opening night to find out that the projector broke so they switched it to digital. It was false advertisement and if the movie wasn't as awesome as it was I would have requested a refund.

Zero VGS posted:I wound up sitting next to a 4 year old during TFA who asked questions every three seconds while his dad spent the entire movie impotently trying to shush him. Now I understand how Anakin could bring himself to kill younglings, so in a way my disdain for children has slightly improved the prequels for me. My 4 year old was awesome and only spoke out "daddy" to remind me to whisper the Raid dudes subtitles.

NecroMonster posted:Well Lucas himself disallowed any portrayal of Jedi as evil or even morally gray within all EU materials for, last I checked, the whole time he was in possession of the Star Wars IP. He was also vocally critical of EU stories that attempted to introduce moral subtly or nuance into Star Wars. Hell he even re-edited his own film to, famously, remove a bit of nuance from the portrayal of a character that I'm sure I don't need to even say the name of for people to get this reference. Death of the author.

Admiral Joeslop posted:Did you not notice her breaking down when she watched the hologram of her father explaining that he missed her, and what his plan for the Death Star was? She stays with Cassian in the hopes of seeing her father again because she was putting up a tough exterior and seeing him again cracked that exterior. Jyn finally gets to see him after 16 years or however long and he dies within minutes. She lashes out because the Rebels killed him but decides to take his message to the leaders anyway, because its what he wanted. They don't believe her so and she goes on the mission herself, with the people who do believe her. The Empire took her family, and has taken the families and lives of other people. She decides to fight against the Empire. What's so hard to get about this?

Hollismason posted:It was pretty interesting that Everyone Dies. We get to see the Rebels actually do some guerilla style poo poo. Oh and Jyn is needed because they need to get the pilot from Saw, which was made pretty clear that the Rebellion and Saw were on bad terms and they figured she was the best chance to get the information from Saw. Also, Jyn changes her mind after seeing the holo message from her father and the devastating power of the Death Star. I am convinced people are just bad at watching movies. Everyones motives are well fleshed out and shown right there in the film.

Nielsen posted:I won't argue with this, I think you're right about a lot of this stuff but here's the hilarious kicker, all this kind of important character drama is "efficiently cut" so we can get extra shots of spaceships blowing stuff up and more fanservice, I would've loved to see more efficiently cut space battles and more moments between the characters that actually underline these things. That's my major problem with the film, as much as I loved all the spacebattles, I wanted to see some more people doing peoplestuff, to make me care more. I read this as "I'm not interested in star wars"

Jewmanji posted:The film-makers were whispering to us nerds that Saving Private Ryan and Black Hawk Down were touchstones during the making of his film. Even if its just marketing and genuflection to the nerd hivemind, there was a clear motivation behind this movie to reassure adults that Star Wars has a brand new look (when the truth is that most adult nerds have shades of suspended adolescence in them, and therefore think things that are dark/gritty signify adulthood). Well you see, you just don't like Star Wars.
