Star Wars: Episode IX - THE RISE OF SKYWALKER

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

Me:

1. ESB
2. SW
3. RO
4. TLJ
5. ROTJ
6. TFA

7. TPM
8. ROTS
9. AOTC

10. The Shallows
11. JAWS

10 and 11 are probably true after I saw 4 and 5


4 and 5 made me throw up in my mouth a little..

Sorry JAWS I simply can’t accept forgiveness for the PT with simultaneous hatred for the ST.

​

Look I had to rate the SW films.. I cant help that they seem closer together then they really are ​

Perhaps this will help.

1. SW - 5 out of 5
2, ESB - 5 out of 5
3. RO - 4 out of 5
4. ROTJ - 3.5 out of 5


5. TPM - 2.5 out of 5
6. ROTS - 2 out of 5
7. TFA - 1.5 out of 5


8.AOTC - 1out of 5
9. TLJ - 1 out of 5

That just screams blind forgiveness because it’s Lucas.

I was ready to say pro Lucas anti Kennedy but you like RO

It has nothing to do with Lucas.. I can admit that the PT are not very good movies.. But neither are the ST... Both are bad but for very different reasons IMO.

ST have nothing that stands out in them. I can point to some cool action pieces and ideas in the PT but admittedly those cool moment are over shadowed by the bad dialogue and wooden acting.. But I like many of the ideas and the film just feel more like SW to me.. Flawed SW but SW nonetheless.

Both ST are better made films but are just not as interesting to me and nothing stands out in those films..

I have put all other SW films in my VD/VHS/DVD/BR over the years and would watch my fav moments from the films.. I still do it.. Sometimes I don't have the time or energy to watch ESB but I will watch Hoth battle or Saber Duel... I have done that with PT and RO also.

There is nothing.. Absolutely nothing that is worth my time with the ST to go and find and watch... Nothing stands out.. No cool action set pieces.. No Hoth Battle, Asteroid chase, rescue of the princess, Duel of the Fates, Ass Kicking Vader etc.. Nothing. Not as full scenes anyways.. Holdo Suicide is cool but not really worth putting in the disc for.

They completely lack imagination IMO... They completely lack being... SW ​

That is my issue anyways..

I don't care who makes SW... Just make good SW and I will be happy... RO is a perfect example ​

[SUB][/SUB]

The former are not even movies they’re cartoons.

C’mon that just doesn’t compute.

​

Go back and look at my post from a few years ago about the PT.. I hated on them plenty.. The "Everything Great About" videos on YouTube made me a bit more forgiving and the ST made me appreciate them more.. They are not good films.. But they are better SW films then ST and it should not even be close since ST has original 3 in them.. Perhaps I feel that way because I was just a little younger when I saw the PT.. So they have had time to settle in and feel like SW.. I don't know.. All I know is.. I don't really enjoy anything about the ST.​

Wait a sec, how old are you JAWS? I assumed from your love of JAWS and AWIL and all that that you were in your 40's. Is that not the case??

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

Personally, I'd put the blame elsewhere.

does it rhyme with canteen cutlery?

I just turned 47 today actually..

When I say I was younger.. I mean I was in my late 20s and early 30s... Either way the PT feels like SW to me.. That may be because of time..

Plus I got some sort of enjoyment out of all of them when they first came out.

I assume I am a bit older then most here. Def older then Jye, Khev, and probably Junkion.. Thus I am Wiser and without question I know what makes a quality SW film more then they do.. So they need to respect their elder and just agree with me. ​

Yeah I'm coming up on 44. I heard that once a person hits 46 their taste in film gets a bit screwy (hence your appreciation for RO and then nothing good after that.)

42 is midlife crises and everything gets screwed up.. You think films are edgy and intelligent when they are not because you are trying to recapture your youth. You come out of it around 46 years of age..

Should I admit we are the same age to level the "wisdom" playing field?



And HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

As long as you agree with me.
