I don't know what those are but they sound awesome.
I don't have a subwoofer. I do have a $5,000 pair of Focal Trio6's plugged into an Apogee interface though, because I'm a mix engineer

If you don't know what they are, how do you know what they sound like?

"Focal Trio6" sounds awesome, lol. But I'm sure the actual sound that they produce is awesome too.

Of course not, only feeble-minded Star Wars nerds do this crap.

They do have a cool name
They are monitoring speakers, so speakers that go really high and really low with as flat a response as possible so that you can use them for pro applications like mixing. So when I watch a movie on the iMac, I hear roughly what the guy who did the mix of the dialogue, sound effects and music heard in his room.

Your never wasting your breath....but if you cannot look at OT with the same critical eyes as new films (any new films) you are failing to admit the impact these had on your childhood mind, that didn’t ask the grown up questions....
I know a lot of people who freely admit that space slug is one of the dumbest sequences in any Star Wars film.
But so many of us cannot see with a critical eye our childhood loves , and cannot see with a child’s eyes once our adult cynicism kicks in.
How about PT?
Vase built C3po? Is that stupidity protected by your childhood or were you old enough to see it for the contrived character placement it was?

Nice!
(And I don't think every aspect of the prequels suck, just having fun with the back and forth.

Could you hear the cries of sadness for TLJ in the mixing room?

Yeah I can tell that you are having fun
I wish, could have improved the movie a bit.

Some 'mistakes' are just easier to accept when they were part of your childhood.
It gets harder when you have developed taste and critical thinking to an adult stage, watched tons of movies, and you are presented with something new that's in conflict with your current state of mind. You analyze it differently.
My favorite movies are from guys like Fincher and Villeneuve, yet I do enjoy the PT. That's really weird right? But I was 12 when TPM came out, so I just took it all in without thinking much. Granted I did think AOTC and ROTS were a bit weird because I was a bit older at that point but it's not the same as if I saw them for the first time today.
Many things in TLJ bug me to no end, but I'm sure they wouldn't have in 1999.
That's exactly what it is.

Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)
the OT is the establishing criteria being the "original copy" as it were in this line. Its like buying an original cast Stormtrooper bucket or Vader Helmet with all its flaws and imperfections. When it arrives and then has air bubbles that the original didn't and the seller says, "well, the original was wonky and assymetrical, and had chips all over..."
Yes it did, but not the air bubbles.
You don't understand jumping the shark, cause you enjoy riding it.

Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)
After the disparity between The Last Jedi reviews and viewer feedback on Rotten Tomatoes, I won't be pre-ordering tickets for Solo, or see it opening weekend. I'm skeptical, and would have to see both decent reviews and similar viewer feedback before paying to see another Star Wars film. I definitely won't be seeing episode 9 or anything with Johnson attached to it. I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way.

I won't be seeing Solo in theaters no matter what. I already skipped Rogue One knowing it had two Vader scenes (big Vader fan) so Solo will be an easy pass, especially now that TLJ has given me a reason to do so. I did like RO, but I'm still glad I didn't pay to go see it. I'm sure Solo will fall into that category as well, unless it's really bad of course. I hope it's not though, I want to like it just like any other Star Wars movie.
Not going to see Solo is a small but important statement to make for those who really had issues with TLJ. Lucasfilm is keeping an eye on that box office after the backlash, that's for sure.
Can't say anything about IX for now, it's 2 years away, not even in pre-production, no images, no trailers. I'll definitely wait for fan reviews though, I trusted the critics blindly for TLJ, big mistake.

Whoa you're gonna wait until Monday to see Solo now? Man I thought Heath Ledger standing next to that giant pile of burning money was a hardcore message but not anymore man. Not anymore...

All I see is the bizarre decision to show actual zero gravity and the icy-death of "real" space in the Leia Poppins scene... when scientific reality like that has only very vaguely been dealt with in SW as hazy science-ish backdrop ("fly right through a supernova...")... because it is MYTHIC FANTASY, not SCIENCE FICTION.
It's like people seriously don't understand the difference.
