Zane posted:those are both bad in tlj. the first is bcz of poe's misjudgment. the second is bcz of finn's misjudgment. they're both misjudgments because they both enact the classic star wars morality that tlj criticizes at every turn: in which the best 'good' thing is always to destroy the closest 'evil' thing. the alternative tlj morality involves rethinking the whole approach. as rose suggests: 'not to destroy what you hate but save the thing that you love' but holdo destroys the thing she hates idgi

Comfy Fleece Sweater posted:While your memeology isn’t off the mark, I’d point out that it took a good 15 years for prequel memes to become a thing. Before that, the hate for the prequels overshadowed the “awww, I guess they were flawed but original” perception they have today That perception lives in a few threads in a single relentlessly self-hypnotising subforum afaict

Chomp8645 posted:They didn't really have a "plan" it seems, but JJ at least had ideas about where he thought things should go based on what he'd set up. He passed that information to Rian, who promptly said "didn't read lol" and I guess just willfully threw everything off the rails because he thought it would be funny. I think it's objectively hilarious, and if he'd turned down the iconoclasm to like 40% instead of 95% it would have been a classic. There are actually a bunch of neat bits in the film, it just gets destroyed by fridge logic and the obsessive need to jam every interaction into the procrustean bed of The Theme, chopping off the bits that don't fit.

lofi posted:It's so frustrating that there are endless ways to do interesting things with SW, but everyone involved seems to take every opportunity to make it worse. For all I hated TLJ, it felt like it at least tried to shake things up. i liked TLJ, though with some caveats, and the three people I went with loved it. It fell apart in retrospect but it has enough great visuals and moments to be an enjoyable watch imo, for all the director's hard-on for slaughtering ever sacred cow he can find is a bit wearying.

Gutcruncher posted:It’s great how Luke just sorta died at the end. Just cuz. It mattered so little and came so out of nowhere that the actor didn’t even realize he was getting killed. No? It was the least expectation subverty part of the movie, one last fatal effort to save the good guys after refusing to do anything for the rest of the movie. I really liked luke in TLJ.

Randarkman posted:It has its clear flaws and is a pretty messy movie. But it's got some really great segments in it and the overall plot of the movie, destroy the Death Star and redeem Darth Vader is pretty good even if the former is rehased. eh. it's bad, but it's fine if you like it. yub yub, as they say.

SidneyIsTheKiller posted:This strikes me as a very contemporary view of what 'works' that you're trying to apply to a 1983 movie. Maybe that's exctly what you mean to do, which is fine, but a lot of things really were different at the time. i saw it when it came out, as a kid, and we thought it was a bit weak, fwiw. Reviews were mixed. I think the idea that ESB is the clear best is what's grown over time. sebmojo fucked around with this message at 04:02 on Oct 28, 2019 |
