Star Wars: Episode IX - THE RISE OF SKYWALKER

Jye, do you see the ST like you see water parks?

With all due respect, a-dev (and I do respect you a *ton*), I wouldn't go into a PT thread to repeatedly bash the PT there. I'd give my point of view, discuss it a bit, and then be done with it. I know that there are PT fans who enjoy those films, so I'd have to wonder what my goal was if I specifically went into where they'd be most drawn to in order to repeatedly just trash what they appreciate.

I visit PT figure threads quite a bit (because I think all of those HT releases have looked fantastic), but I make it a point not to post there and ridicule those movies or characters in those threads. I failed twice that I can remember, and felt like an a**hole both times. But everybody's different, and I understand that. It's just, when you say "we," I wanted to note this distinction (albeit a subtle one, admittedly).

When it comes to SW, the PT isn't the only thing that I find frustratingly bad. But unless I'm specifically asked about Solo, or Rebels, or the comics, you might not ever know it. Same with poor movies in other franchises (MCU, Terminator, Predator, Aliens, Die Hard, Indy . . . they all have at least one crappy movie, imo): I just don't get the appeal of going to where those fans have a thread for the latest film just to keep taking a dump, over and over again, on it. Sure, I might strongly prefer the earlier stuff. So what? Why continue to beat the same drum for people who are interested in the new stuff?

If there was an NFL forum, with one thread for each of the 32 teams, and every thread was almost nothing but other fans crapping on that thread's team, I'd find it just as peculiar. But I'd have no interest in trying to change how these threads operate, my post was just a product of being exhausted by more of the same. Pay no mind.

You should join us in the Terminator thread, I don't think anyone on here is actually looking forward to Dark Fate. In fact the only diversity of opinion in those threads is which of the movies post-T2 is the least crap.

Nah, I could be wrong. Maybe we've just intimidated and demoralized anyone who likes the other films into a state of resigned silence.

There are sequels past T3...? Say it is not so.


When I saw Good Boys on Saturday, the craptastic Dark Fate trailer had the entire theater groan. Made Genisys look intriguing.

I figured that would be the norm in your neck of the woods.

Husbands have to wear sunglasses even on cloudy days where I go.

Is that little girl Pennywise lol

Pics or it didn't happen. Why won't you share this Eden with us? If your wife is like I imagine, she won't mind.


PS: that little girl screaming at the fat lady cracks me up.

I bet after midnight, they close the park and the hot VIP people have a massive orgy. Satan himself is probably the DJ.

 

[Prime Clone]

But do you see my point how almost every ST hater is a PT lover.

I like both, but I must admit to some schadenfreude from seeing the ST get roasted.

 

[DiFabio]

I hate the sequel trilogy. They?re garbage. They suck.

I don?t like the prequels, but I do have nostalgia for them, and sometime nostalgia is enough.

There are no thoughtful memories I have with the sequel trilogy. The first one came out just a few years ago.

 

[jye4ever]

There are only 4 moments that I love from the PT and they are Anakin marching with the troopers behind him, Maul v OW after QG is killed, Palpatine Anakin opera scene and Padme grabbing Anakins metallic fingers at their secret wedding in Italy.

Thats it!

I almost didnt include the opera scene because the swimming sperm in the egg is just too on the nose at times lol

The overall Maul battle is just too tedious to watch because of how its integrated with all of the other crap going on so nope.

(I always loved Mauls face when he force pulled the little thing to open the door though lol)

I had to apologize to my family and friends TPM opening night and AOTC opening night I was too embarrassed to apologize lol

Bright suns!! Still you sat through the freaking movies, not a lot could be said about the PT, people walked off when they saw Carrie Poppins and other scenes in TLJ in the theater, i just wanted to see how long i would hold out, this is no different. Watch TROS output the same reactions from the audience. People are fed up with agenda and the wokeness is spreading if a movie gets a stupid point they just don?t give zero ****s about it

If it was 15 years ago, I'd hate to think what you would have had to do to your family and friends after TLJ opening night.

 

[jye4ever]

They hated TFA, TLJ and Solo but enjoyed RO lol

One of them said to me there?s really not many good SW movies are there.

I answered sure there are you?re forgetting some now go back to your sports gambling fanaticism leave your geek brother alone go watch some dumb football movie lol.

Your family has pretty good taste.

Any person I disagree with who then ends their sentence with "but I liked Rogue One" is good in my book, lol.

"Alita was overhyped and I don't like her big eyes..."

"What the?? Son of a--!"

"...but I liked RO."

"Oh okay cool."

lol

Ewan Mcgregor alone makes the PT a 100x better than the ST.

While I really do like EM portrayal of OW way better than HC Anakin it?s just not enough to make the PT consumable.

Original Luke, Han, Leia even in the ST > PT OW
