Endor could be better but the whole Vader/Emperor/Luke supblot and the Space battle are really well done.

The Emperor stuff in ROTJ is REALLY good, but the Endor stuff brings the whole film down and stops it from being perfect.

I also feel like the movie suffers from making sure every character has something to do at all times.

Except Han, who gets rescued and opens a door on Endor and absolutely nothing else.

It fuckin' owned and I stayed out of this thread til I saw the movie yesterday and thought it was great just because there was 100% no way in hell I was going to expect that.

Real talk, the problem is the scene gets ruined when Maul has to grab a lightsaber, turn it on and pose with it. I was expecting the dude to do a flip at the end of the projection just to make sure we all know who it was.

to this day i'll defend the way Darth Maul looks. he does look heckin' cool

that first Phantom Menace movie trailer owned bones. Everything was new and fresh and you didn't know what the gently caress anything was and then bam, this dude comes out looking like the motherfucking devil and he's got a DOUBLE SIDED LIGHTSABER? holy fuckin moly i'm pumped for this movie.

and then the movie comes out and it has no less than three (3) racist stereotypes running around, darth maul is a dumb chump, movie sucks.

Yeah, if there's anything good about the TPM is the look of Darth Maul, not his character and the Podraces (since it spawned the world's greatest racing game), Darth Maul looks cool as all loving poo poo, better than Kylo Ren that's for drat sure.

Does Darth Maul even speak in The Phantom Menace? I remember there was a scene of him speaking in the original trailer but then it was cut from the film.

I think he speaks twice in the whole film.

Nah, Maul's the same as Boba Fett: He's a plot device with a few lines of dialogue, but because he looks cool, he has this mystique around him.

That's a good analogy.

Dave Syndrome posted:

So far we have no NuCanon source claiming Fett survived the Sarlacc, do we?
Even in the Aftermath books, where we see some guy on Tatooine buying a set of battle (and stomach acid) damaged Mandalorian armor, it never mentions Fett's fate explicitly.
My bet is his survival will either be revealed in the Fett movie or the media leading up to it. Depending how close after ROTJ the Resistance TV show is set, we might even see him in there.

I don't know, but I'm pretty sure they'll revive his rear end from the dead.

Szmitten posted:

The most interesting suggestion I heard about a Boba Fett movie was to actually have other characters be the protagonists, but they're being hunted by Fett. So you have this Terminator/Predator-esque chase movie instead of actually giving him character and robbing the mystique.

Remaking either of those films verbatim with a Star Wars coat of paint would be better than probably anything they can come up with.

Boba Fett does suck at this job: he doesn't do any bounty hunting in ESB/ROTJ, instead he follows the Falcon and tells the Empire where they'll be and let's the Empire capture Solo for him.

You it just donned on me. Solo should have never had Han Solo actually in it. It should be characters sitting around a cantina telling short stories about Solo, but you only ever see him from the back, in a shilouette.

This would have been great, you could also have characters fighting over details so that the same stories have multiple takes but more outlandish poo poo happening in them every time.

It sucks when Alien never foreshadowed the Alien Queen. It’s a huge plot hole that xenomorphs suddenly have a solid creator of the Alien eggs.

I think the idea is that, if they're about to start filming, and he's going to be in it with a beard, it would be a bad time to shave. His beard was pretty bushy and, as an owner of a bushy beard myself, I can say they don't grown in overnight.

That comes down to genetics though, some people can grow a beard like Hamil's in no time though.

The TLJ throne room fight would have had to hold up better under close analysis to be regarded as a classic. There are way way too many awkward red dudes milling around or swinging at nothing on the edges of the frame. As is it’s as much of a hollow fraud as the rest of the film

It's visually impressive with the really bright as red and flames going everywhere, but the choreography is terrible.

No, audience opinion you've decided to pay attention to has been mostly negative.

So you're saying that the negativity for the movie was greater because... people decided to listen too it? Or maybe it being poo poo on everywhere was because it was just a bad film a lot of people didn't like?

The moon and the planet have the same name apparently, so yes, Endor is the moon as well.
