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

As a teenager, I briefly worked with a girl that did the same work as you as a second job, she was messed up in the head. I couldn't stand her but obviously had to tolerate her. One night after work a bunch of us were hanging out together and then suddenly she jumped on my back and started biting me. Later had the gall to tell management that I had inappropriately propositioned her, or something like that. Thankfully I had about 6 or 7 other people to back up my story.

What a nutcase.

I'm thinking I'm fine considering it was nearly 30 years ago. Though I do tend to blackout during full moons.

No skin was broken, just unwanted, bizarre, kinky behavior or something like that.

Same here! :hi5:

I watched it again this Sunday, and it was my favorite viewing so far. Enough so that I realized TLJ has surpassed ROTJ as my 3rd-favorite SW film.

One thing that also struck me this last time is how good (and underappreciated) the John Williams score is. It doesn't have that one signature piece to take it to the next level (like the "Imperial March" and "Duel of the Fates" did for those soundtracks), but was really good throughout. Enhanced every scene, even if in more of a subdued and subtle way than earlier SW scores. I definitely think it outdid the TFA score by a wide margin.

Hopefully Episode IX will be good enough to maybe even lift TLJ a bit more for you. And if not, at least there's 3 scenes you can tolerate. Better than nothing.

I have a few scenes I dont like, but find most of it pretty watchable

Rots is better than all the new Star Wars movies combined tho.

ajp, the time has come for you to utilize your debating powers for the side of hate and explain why ironwez is so wrong about ROTS. Do it! Do not hesitate. Show no mercy!
 
Re: Star Wars: Episode IX - December 20, 2019

ROTS is better than Last Jedi no doubt about it lol If you cut out the Padme Balcony Scene, Vader NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO and a few stupid obi wan one liners "like sith lords are our speciality (whatt????? he never even killed a sith lord then proceeds to get his *** handed to him by dooku yet again, who wasn't even a sith lord imo) you actually have a good star wars movie. Hayden was much better in Sith than he was in Clones, of course he was also terrible in clones so maybe I am giving him a pass.
 
Re: Star Wars: Episode IX - December 20, 2019

Ok but since you can’t remove NOOOOOO and child massacres in reality it’s a POS movie almost as bad as AOTC which is not even a movie that’s a cartoon for a 10 year old.

But all of that is not nearly as bad as the crap from the ST tho. Say what u want about the PT but atleast it didn’t deliver the most hated star wars movie of all time. As poorly acted as they were I still cared about anakin’s downfall. Could care less about Rey and her over powered ***. The PT didn’t hurt the franchise like ST did.

:lol:lol

Nothing I can post here will change anyone's mind about ROTS. And I wouldn't even want to. I actually envy anyone who thinks highly of it because I wish like crazy that I could regard ROTS as a good film, or even just an enjoyable one. But I don't think I'll ever see it as anything other than a complete mess. And it actually blows my mind how ROTS is perceived as a superior film to either of the ST movies. Not even remotely close, IMO. Not in acting, writing, dialogue, cinematography, effects, sophistication, coherency . . . not in *any* way whatsoever.

I could spend all day going over how cringey the Artoo oil slapstick was . . . how goofy and lame the elevator sequence was . . . the WTF that Grievous was . . . the absurdity of what the final lightsaber duel turned into . . . and on and on (in typical embarrassing PT form). But none of that matters anywhere near as much as what a cluster**** ROTS made of the turning of Anakin into Vader. The most important storyline/plot in the entire Skywalker Saga became an utter joke (even before we get to "NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"). And I never would've even thought it possible before the PT. An epic possibility turned into an epic fail.

ROTS didn't establish any believable rationale for Anakin's turn. In fact, much of the story even undermines the notion that Anakin would ever serve an evil master at all! From lighthearted banter with Obi-Wan . . . to his increased sense for him as a father figure . . . to his affection for Padme and his unborn child(ren). Even him resisting slicing off Dooku's head until he was ordered to "dew it." Why!? This guy had cut off Anakin's hand and totally embarrassed him; so with Kenobi unconscious, *that* was an opportunity to show how Anakin's experience with the Tuskens in AOTC had evolved. Show that he was more lost soul than meets the eye, and that his instincts had changed. But nope; gotta keep Anakin's good nature prevalent enough so that when he turns at the end, and is willing to hurt/kill the two people he cared most about (Padme & Kenobi), we're left saying, "Wait . . . what!?"

All the while, not a single friggin' Jedi *Master* could sense what was going on! After all the talk in the first 5 movies about "search your feelings" and "I can sense the (fill in the blank) in you" we're supposed to believe that all of these super-powerful Jedi *Masters* were completely oblivious to whatever deep turmoil would cause Anakin to embrace the dark side? Think about how that conflicts with what came before: Vader could sense Luke's thoughts, even about his secret sister; Luke could sense Vader's conflict; Yoda could see young Luke's ambitions . . . from ACROSS THE GALAXY!!. But not one of these great and powerful Jedi could sense what was happening to Anakin, right there next to them!?

And he turned to save his wife from dying. The motive that nearly 20 years to think about in order to explain Luke's father murdering countless people in servitude to an evil master was . . . just to learn the power/ability to keep his wife alive? The one who he turns around and levels accusations at before choking her? :lol Ridiculous. To this day - and after THREE prequel films, if anyone is asked by someone who doesn't watch SW why Anakin turned evil, there won't be a consistent (or coherent) answer from fans who actually love this stuff. That's what ROTS will leave as its legacy: a convoluted mess that ended up leaving as many questions as it provided in answers. Not a good film in a cinematic sense, but a much worse film in terms of justifying its own existence.

Ok but since you can’t remove NOOOOOO and child massacres in reality it’s a POS movie almost as bad as AOTC which is not even a movie that’s a cartoon for a 10 year old.

I spent all that time writing, and jye does it better in one sentence. I'll get the hang of this eventually. :lol
