Padme is damaged goods, too, though. Like literally everyone else in the prequels except Palpatine (who gets his similar moment only at the end of RotJ), she only realizes where her blindness has gotten her once its too late.

Ingmar terdman posted:TFA up until they leave Jakku is pretty much as perfect as the first act of a modern Star War could be imo. It might be my favorite first act other than the first one. Episode IV originally had even more "Luke doing Luke stuff" like hanging out with his friends, and I kind of wish that existed in a finished form. It would drag the pace, but further drives home the radicalization point.

NoNotTheMindProbe posted:Just re-watched Rogue One. It was definitely more enjoyable on re-watch than TFA even though I think TFA had the better crafted plot and writing. The main reason I'm replying is to make the joke about how TFA's plot is better because it's ANH's plot. But I also thought about what you wrote and I agree. Rogue One is simply more original, even though we already know vaguely how it ends, and somehow shows us more things we have never seen. Rogue One is more from the height of Dutch painting. TFA is one of Monet's later water lily paintings where his vision was failing, but we value it anyway because we like Impressionism and hey, it's Monet.

Spelling out every acronym partially defeats the purpose of having acronyms and makes it sound as though you are trying to conceal what you're talking about from a three-year-old. "I sure do love those Jedi and their L - A - S - E - R swords." In other news, apparently Daisy Ridley is great at Star Wars secrets, terrible at Werewolf/Mafia secrets. homullus fucked around with this message at 14:18 on Nov 5, 2017 |

teagone posted:This actually became one of my bigger gripes after seeing AOTC when it came out lmao. I didn't expect Hayden's voice to be so soft sounding. It's a trivial complaint sure, but I kept telling all my friends back then how much better Heath Ledger would have been as Anakin instead because he had a more booming voice. A Knight's Tale also came out like a year before AOTC and I loving loved that movie in high school too Anakin's voice was already canonically not-booming as of RotJ

ESB's beginning and ending are some of the best things in all of Star Wars. RotJ has a good pulpy beginning and a good ending. The middles of each are ok. I can see liking RotJ more, but I can't see claiming it's better. It has too much plot to resolve verbally, rather than visually.

Lincoln posted:My only complaint with this film is that they should have manufactured a better Ticking Clock than “we have to keep outrunning the star destroyer until we run out of fuel.” Pretty much everything else was rock-solid, and everyone in this thread who says otherwise is trying hard to be a Cinema Discusso contrarian. Worst Thread Ever continues to deliver. What was wrong with it that wasn't already the kind of thing routinely appearing in Star Wars?

business hammocks posted:Another revision would have helped the script a lot. Much of it tells a story, but stays kind of clumsy in a first-draft way. Ideally I wouldn’t sit there confused about why there are ice foxes cruising around everywhere until someone points out a reason how they connect to the plot. I’m just baffled about why those ice foxes are just walking around in tense drama scenes. Just letting someone else take a crack at integrating them into the story would make everything smooth. Uh, they were shown running into the cave fleeing the First Order's walkers. They normally live outside. They are afraid of giant walkers and not people. What more did you need?

business hammocks posted:Like ideally my experience of watching a movie doesn’t feature me wondering why they wrote a bunch of foxes into the movie that just wander through all the shots and sit on consoles to be ignored by everyone until a character points out a plot function the foxes serve. In other words, you prefer movies to spell things out for you, rather than inferring things from what you see.

Lincoln posted:It was a Ticking Clock that too easily led the audience to think to themselves, wait, why don’t they just do X? Most Ticking Clocks are manufactured, but good ones don’t leave audiences scratching their heads. Episode IV’s “The “Death Star will be in range in three minutes” was wonderfully executed. Condescension noted. I was wrongly inferring that you thought they could have done a better Ticking Clock with the major story elements as-written, rather than "entirely new script."

I like TLJ because it breaks new ground and supports the inference that prequel Jedi were deeply misguided. Here's a thought about Finn that maybe improves his part a bit: we know nothing about what Finn thinks, only what he does. He deserted the First Order in TFA because it appears to be a horrifying death sentence. He tries to desert what was left of the Resistance as it was for the same reason, and he might not have been wrong. Perhaps the Resistance of future films will not be a military or terrorist organization.

Admiral Bosch posted:So, I wrote a huge dumb post in a facebook discussion with my friends, which nobody here wants to read, because I'm sure somewhere in here someone has echoed my opinions. I got to this movie late, and I went in pretty blind, because deliberately exposing yourself to all the media and marketing about a movie is stupid IMO. The fact that anyone thinks this movie is good is frankly mindblowing to me. It's not just a bad Star Wars movie, it's a bad movie. Everything involving Luke, Rey, and Ren was really quite good, and I'd watch a cut of the movie that was just about them. The throne room fight rocked, and I found myself wishing they had made the first movie about Ben turning instead, and have everything follow(although I of course recognize the value in keeping interesting things shrouded). When you level up, you gain the ability to accept that a thing can be well made, but not liked by everyone. You also gain the ability to sometimes distinguish valid crticism from simple dislike.

" and poo poo like that. It's like nobody's allowed to criticize it, because if they do, they're either 1. not a real fan, or 2. why are you a fan of something you hate??? To which my response is "I am a fan of good movies, and the original trilogy are good movies." I don't know, I'm just a little frustrated.
