I don’t see any problems with further exploring chain of command war time behavioral characteristics.

I bet in the history of wars there were heroes who have been reprimanded on their next mission for many of reasons that range from politics to personally conflicts or vice versa bad apples being hailed as heroes.

You 2 are thinking way too small for me c’mon out of the box dammit out of the box lol
 
Re: Star Wars: Episode IX - December 20, 2019

It is kind of ridiculous. Poe had a lot of little green rectangles.

#plothole
 
Re: Star Wars: Episode IX - December 20, 2019

Leia slapped Poe in hyperspace. She thought they were free and clear and that he had needlessly defied her orders which led to many deaths.

And then she forgave him (permission to jump in an x-wing and blow things up) and told him it was ok to do the same thing again..
And if he hadn’t attacked then they would all have been dead anyway?

I completely get the point Johnson was trying to make - but he didn’t execute his idea with any coherence or logic.

Where was Holdo a few hours earlier at the Star Killer briefing? Even the cleaners were at that?

Well yes, she wasn't going to stupidly not put their best pilot in the air. But he was no longer going to be flying as a Commander calling all the shots for the squadron.
 
Re: Star Wars: Episode IX - December 20, 2019

Like Khev said.

Way tooooo much forgiveness given to the OT yet TLJ gets trashed with the tiniest of narrative hiccups that have actually been shown to make perfect sense afterall lol

Completely agree with you here.
But that’s because TLJ was so ridiculous and badly written.

Even Johnson admits that he wrote sequences and events that he wanted in the movie and then tried to framework a story around them. That’s really bad writing, especially for the middle story in a 3 part arc.
And it’s left IX in the most boring of places. He killed all the excitement and mystery/build up.

I love the war/peace/war time character dynamics being played with in TLJ.

Always in motion like the force says.
 
Re: Star Wars: Episode IX - December 20, 2019

I was watching the special features etc the other night and I was incredulous about what he was saying- he “had” to kill Luke because he was in the way of Rey’s storyline?

What storyline? You killed that too.

He also said he had to reset the force so that younger viewers would understand what it is. Well done matey as you did the polar opposite.
:lol
 
Re: Star Wars: Episode IX - December 20, 2019

People would be way more forgiving to TLJ had it being better executed however the unninteresting reveals with the addition of lame delivery makes it impossible to rewatch unless you're a shill or have severe brain damage.
 
Re: Star Wars: Episode IX - December 20, 2019

Plot holes? In the great TLJ?? *adjusts monocle*

"I challenge you to name one good sir!" :lecture

erm..

How did Poe know Maz?
How did Rey get back on the falcon with Chewie after fighting with Kylo?
Why did Holdo act in such an incredulous way with Poe who just saved them all from Starkiller base?
Why did Luke leave a map to the island in R2 and WTF was the entire plot line in TFA about a missing piece of the map?
Why did DJ act like he was stealing the stupid necklace from Rose (to the point of an argument) if he only wanted it as a conductor - you know you could just say?
Why did Hux not just send an armada of ships out to destroy the tiny resistance fleet? He wanted to wait until they ran out of fuel? :lol
How did Luke repair his x-wing wing door almost immediately after it was ripped of it's hinges by chewy?
Who was Snoke and what was he doing?
He was powerful enough to meld the minds of Rey and Kylo but he couldn't tell that Kylo was about to kill him?
Force ghosts can summon lighting now?
Leia can float in space - should have told Vader at the end of Rogue One and this entire mess would have been cleared up and the OT would never have been required.
Why did the cooked Porgs have comedy plastic feet?
How did BB8 get 6 coins inserted into his slot then fire hundreds at the guards.
How did the Farthiers jump through stone walls? Very unhorse like.
Why did Rose a resistance fighter have a ridiculous hidden resistance logo in a giant eternity ring.
And why on earth would several small (Michael Jackson "Smooth Criminal) kids know about the Resistance or the First Order - Given that Finn and ex Resistance proper had never heard of Canto Bite.
Why did Rian Johnson waste so much money building the most incredible sets and creatures for Canto Bite (check the deleted scenes) then use none of them in the movie and instead do a Mary Poppins horse ride through the city instead.
Why did Holdo act so bizarrely and not tell one of the main resistance leaders (POE) what was happening? Leia obviously wasn't that pissed with him as she gave him permission to go an blow stuff up again mere minutes before Holdo arrived?
Why did Luke throw away his father's lightsabre with such carelessness? It's like he did it for a laugh - but Rey didn't find it amusing (neither did anyone else in the cinema). Even if he was pissed at the Jedi it makes zero sense that this would';t have significance for him.
How did Luke hand Solo's dice to Leia given that neither of them were real?
Why did the soldier on Crait stick his finger into the footprint of his boss and then taste it? It could have been sulphuric acid or Taunton piss.
How did Finn fly his little fighter straight through the beam of the giant First Order laser cannon on craft for minutes without taking damage?
How did BB8 get up into a chicken walker..
Where was Holdo in TFA? A famous general who wasn't at the Starkiller Base briefing? Probably dying her hair..
How was Maz in the middle of a whole new adventure hours after her castle was blown up in TFA?
Where did all the women come from in the resistance ship?
Is Holdo sexist? Certainly seemed like she was an equal opportunity employer.

I could go on.. and on.. and on... it's just moronic all of it.
