Star Wars Saga (OT/PT/ST) Discussion Thread

?New Alderaan?


Ok, yeah, I?m done with Star Wars. Who the heck writes all this stuff.

If it happened after 1980, it doesn?t exist.

There is truth here.

The PT and ST really don't feel like part of the OT to me. The PT because of its pristine CGI locations, creatures, and awkward acting. The ST because its 40 years after the fact, everyone is old, fat and the story does not center around the OT characters.

So Its really just all about the OT.

BUT... I love SW so I accept the less then perfect PT, ST, The Mandalorian, TCW, Rebels, RO, Solo and whatever else they send my way

But I get why there are those that don't care for some, most, or all.

I wish you were wrong but you are not

Covid Special Edition lol

Look, I don't care, they can come out with whatever mutations they want as long as the original strain remains available.

You just wait for the eventual Covid ST where 32 years after the victorious vaccine trio toppled the evil SARS epidemic a new strain arises but the heroic vaccine trio are no longer in a position of unity after having lost their leader who is feeling depressed and cut himself off from the WHO while quarantined on a desolate island with porg flu running amok

I told the nurse that in 3 minutes I could change her mind and convince her just how epic DiFabio’s antibody fall really was because he didn’t have access to the restricted vaccine storage section for his 2nd dose

See what a-dev started lol

[jye4ever]

While the execution wasn't great, still something charming about the love Lucas had in the movies. His weird choices, bad dialogue and uninspired directing didn't stop him from using his rich mediocre butt from trying creative stuff.

I tried re-watching the ST the other day, and just wasn't pleasant. Just feels like a slick product. Uninspired McDonalds. While it starts off with better directing and writing than Lucas, it has no heart or a captivating story. It is just filler, and by the time you get to the last jedi the franchise comes to a halt. For me I rather something be not that great but creative than bland CGI fest.

Interesting take.. TFA is not a remake of ANH but a retelling of the entire OT.

I ain’t clicking that person could’ve raided the Capital!

A retelling of ANH is good enough for me.

Its only 2 min.. you can handle it.. Capital Raid or not.

Yeah, I thought TFA being a "greatest hits" of the entire OT was pretty obvious and deliberate. I like that for the ROTJ section they gave us the alternate version that was briefly considered where Han dies. And then of course TROS gave us the alternate showdown with boy and the girl facing the Emperor that was cut short by ROTJ as well.

The more you tighten your ST grip DiFabio, the more quality analysis JAWS will slip through your fingers.

I'll give you all some first hand advice, and I'm being serious. If and when you get the covid vaccine take the next day off and don't plan on working. I got it Monday morning and was fine all day, then about 12 hours later it absolutely leveled me. Headache, groggy as hell, couldn't sleep, etc. Then about 12-16 hours later I was ok again. I had to work the day after and it was miserable.

Your mileage may vary though, the vaccine also affects people differently. I have since talked to folks who felt next to nothing and some worse than me. I got the Moderna, I'm really looking forward to the second shot which is supposed to be worse

 

[Khev]

Oh wow good to know, thanks.

 

[jye4ever]

My wife got the vaccine zero reaction other than a sore arm for 2 days lol

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

Lol I was warned about the sore arm. It was fine for about 6 hrs, then it got pretty damn sore

Did she get Pfizer or Moderna?

 

[jye4ever]

Pfizer

But she got it 7 weeks post covid so her antibody was already elevated

 

[ironwez20]

My friend and mom got it but they seem fine. Shoulder hurts a bit. I?m scared for my dad getting it. Idk it just seems like a sketchy drug. What?s in it?
