That was neat. It was the movie version of KotOR I.

the few CGI scenes actually annoyed me more because of all the awesome practical effects? lol. well, not MORE than the prequels. because fuck ME there is nothing good about any of that.

spoilers? really liked it. i had zero expectations. just saw it a day or two ago. was like a new version of New Hope. New New Hope? but dug it a lot.

A Newer Hope!

So now that TFA is out, who else is pumped as fuck for Rogue One?

Gimme a god damn Boba Fett movie.

All the extended universe stuff got retconned by Disney so I don't know if that stuff still holds up. I wonder if that means Dash Rendar and Kyle Katarn no longer exist. That would be a shame.

Apparently Phasma has a much larger role in the next movie. Hopefully kicking ass and dying a good death/seeing the error of her ways and defecting.

gotsta put the / at the beginning of the second nsfw bracket baybay.

i really wish they weren't doing the EVERYTHING STAR WARS WOOOO HERE'S MORE THAN MORE WAS MORE YES WOOOOOOOOOOO shit. killing any anticipation.

like, Civil War and Apocalypse look neat. i guess? but i just don't care about super herper moobies any more.

BURNT.

Eh, I'm more or less burnt out on the whole underwear pervert movie trend. The quality of em' has been dropping, or maybe I've become more jaded.

I think I'm one of the few people who hated it completely. I got tired of the constant references to the original trilogy. It felt like J.J. kept on going "hey remember how much you liked these movies" without adding anything interesting of his own. Also it felt like a kids movie because of all the lame ass dialog. But because of all the action it was like a violent kids movie. Just odd and terrible. I kind of think this will get as much hate as the prequels once people's nostalgia wears off.

heresy

So, I liked it. It was entertaining. But I am with you. It needed an edit. Badly. Just odd timing and cuts, sometimes long, sometimes not long enough...what the fuck was that closing, no dialog scene? A friend of mine is hoping the start of the next episode is luke grabbing the light saber and striking Rey down.

What other movie franchise would we let get away with so many repeated motifs? Death Star/Father Son/Death Star X-wing canyon run/BB8 = R2D2.
In a lot of ways it felt like an original trilogy cover band.

WHY THE FUCK DOES NO ONE BELIEVE IN JEDI's? It hasn't been that fucking long...how does Rey know to use the Jedi Mind trick? Then again, why did Obi-wan age so poorly between episodes 3 and 4?

What I loved: The universe was great. Rey was fantastic. I loved that Fin and Poe thought they were going to be the hero, and clearly Rey is the ass kicking hero...At least something happened, between Han and Ben. I thought Ben being a whiny little petulant bitch was kind of funny. He's essentially Luke, but on the dark side...

I dunno, I definitely have a mixed review. I am stoked to be back in the original trilogy universe, but I wish the story was a bit more dialed, and a little more original.

Nah, geek culture is so in vogue these days that people will eat up whatever Hollywood bullshit they're given as long as there's something familiar about it.

It's like Adele (or whatever bland top 40 music): If you put enough money into producing/advertising it, there will be a mindless mass that isn't capable of recognizing how utterly boring and uninspired it truly is.

Of course this is coming from someone who realizes the original trilogy is just ok. it excels in as many areas as it is amateurish. Frankly, if you can't recognize C3PO as an obnoxious and unnecessary character (on par with Jar Jar Binks), you're probably too blinded by nostalgia to approach Star Wars with any intelligence.

Your probably right. I guess this movie was so boring and had so many problems that I hope people are able to recognize it as a bad movie. Honestly I could have slept through this thing.

I just watched it though so I hope my hatred of it will fade with time. Unfortunately the more I think about the plot, dialogue, and pacing the more I hate it. It looked pretty though.
