Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Dec 15th, 2017)

[Popnfresh98]

$700 million less than a previous film that made $710 million? Disaster. $700 million less than a movie that earned over 2 billion? Roaring success.

No way in hell did Disney expect 2 billion to be the minimum earnings with each new entry.

No one said they did. But 800mil less is a steep drop off. The predictions were at 1.8-1.9bil. That’s 500m less than predictions even! Disney were dissapointed when avengers 2 dropped to 1.4bil from the 1.5b of avengers 1. How does anyone think they consider a drop off of 800mil a roaring success?

Even Furious 7 to 8 made 19% less.
BvS to JL made 25% less yet everyone calls it a failure. Tho we can’t say what production costs were with the reshoots of course, but we’re just looking at gross here in terms of audience reception.
TFA to TLJ (setting it at 1.3b) made 38%! less. The PT keeps being brought up, well this is a drop right on par with AOTC @37%.

I guess AotC is a roaring success now huh

fast and the furious franchise is literally a better franchise than current star wars

you cannot include the original for obvious reasons

but i legitimately think the fast and the furious is a more competent, better made and better handle franchise than the current star wars and the prequels,

the movies do well with fans (you never see fans of fast and the furious attacking each other )
those movies are beloved world wide. they bring in the cash, have made so much money they are making a theme park ride about it

let's face it. The Fast and the furious turned out to be a better franchise than star wars as of now. (OBVIOUSLY fast and furious cannot touch the original star wars)

But modern star wars (both these movies now and the prequels) are full of problems and inconsistencies and plot holes and horrible acting and making the fans angry.

fast and the furious might not be very high art or anything, but it does well with what it is

I finally figured it out.

This isn't the real Jye posting, this is Jye's sister that works for Disney or whatever. The real Jye hated TLJ, just like he hated TFA. Right now he's bound and gagged without Internet or Battlefront privileges in his closet because his sis knows any negative posts or quality memes from him would be detrimental in determining the outcome of this war. She can't have that or Kennedy will ****ing kill her in her sleep.

We need to get him back.





Not to mention, three movies out and all that merchandise later and they still haven't profited from their little 4 billion investment.


All those die cast metal Disney toys . . .

you might be onto something..... you might actually be right

Why else would jye stop doing his photoshop jokes? because thats not jye typing thats why....
why else would he stop joking around with what i say or make jokes with me? because thats not jye thats why. it is all very clear now. so very clear.

i did feel something weird about him, I just figured it was Khev controlling him from facebook

To be honest I think the furious movies and the ST are actually on the same page. They’re both more concerned with visuals, shallow characters, modern movie humour, people having what is tantamount to superpowers within the context of their universe and really hokey family ‘twists’ where people betray each other and new developments are revealed all the time. However I agree that they are better handled as they’re sticking to what works for their audience and growing success on success.

I think even though the PT had bad actor direction and dialogue, the in universe expansion and lore was amazing, the art direction was through the roof, the music was John Williams at his best, and the overall plot as opposed to dialogue was good as well. OT still rules tho.

Luke was a fake blond, a fake jedi, a fake teacher, and a fake hologram. Makes sense.

Um, excuse me sweety, Luke was always a hologram. TLJ's story was justified.

 

[Popnfresh98]

He’s actually the Joker who’s been pretending to be Mark Hamill pretending to be Luke Skywalker pretending to be Jake Skywalker pretending to be a hologram and also pretending to be the Joker himself at points so no one would suspect. This is all part of his 40 year master plan which he’s doing ‘for the lulz’

Oh hai Mark

Very well put.
And not all of the acting and dialogue were bad. There are some genuinely good moments of acting in the PT.

So the best justification that TLJ naysayers can come up with to hate the movie are:

1. $1.3 billion projected global earnings is a failure

and

2. The prequels were actually pretty awesome.

Got it.

Yeah it’s not all bad, but I understand it’s a big issue for people who hate them and so just go with it. I mean the imagination on display in every facet is unlike anything else.

Haha right. Mastermind.
