Hey guys here’s a wacky idea. When your actor dies between films, recast. Don’t use scraps of unused footage, don’t turn them into a cgi cartoon, recast. Audiences aren’t so retarded that they won’t understand “oh character is another actor now I guess oh well”

It’s funny to think how if TLJ came out 10 years earlier, people could say they didn’t like it without being branded actual literal nazis and russian bots. It’s just fun to imagine a less embarrassing time period in my life.

KillerJunglist posted:Was he ever called Palpatine in the original movies? I liked the movies when I was a kid but wasn't crazy about them and I thought his name was just The Emperor. Nope, just The Emperor. Also Anakin was only named in Return of the Jedi in a single line between Luke and Vader. I thought it was Light Saver up until I played the Game Gear game and finally saw the word in writing.

Subverting expectations should be about giving audiences something they didn’t realize they wanted, not doing something incorrectly and crying about it when people say they don’t like it. “ITS JUST MY STYLE!”

Even if the Ewoks were toy-bait, they actually mattered to the plot. TLJs toy-bait cute creatures existed ENTIRELY to sell toys and removing all scenes with them wouldn’t affect the plot in the slightest.

It never felt like a fatal last stand or anything. It felt like he decided to do good and have a character moment then practically unrelated just kinda died.

I haven’t seen the mandalorian because gently caress signing up for Disney plus, but is the show trying to say that Yodas people are just naturally good at the force? And that Dagobah is their home planet? Both of those are stupid. The idea that Yoda’s entire species is just Good At It diminishes both Yoda and the force, while making Dagobah their home planet makes Yoda completely retarded. “Hide from Death squads I must” *returns to last known address*

Voting Floater posted:What's the worst change he's made to Empire? There's a dozen different versions of the Emperor scene, but I guess people are broadly OK with that. I loving hate the changes to that scene and it has always blown my mind that people are okay with it. Instead of speaking to a mysterious shadowy perhaps inhuman figure, Vader is now speaking to some guy on a sitcom set. And that doesnt even get into the dialogue changes that were done because they assumed you were watching the movies out of order.

Why do people keep saying “burn it all down” as said by Kylo Ren is the thesis of the Last Jedi and that it’s a good thing, especially when the movie does everything it can to ensure that nothing is getting burned down. All the way to the part where “haha just kidding Rey actually has the Jedi books lol”
