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

[JAWS]

You know I actually did though I do recognize that most consider it one of the low points of the film. I thought it was really cool to see a glitzy and opulent hive of scum and villainy instead of the typical dives that other films have presented. I was just giving you a hard time about just how truly low you ranked it, lol. I don't have any problem with you not liking it or anything.

Damn I was hoping for knock down, drag out fight about the value of this scene and its ranking in the SW universe

If the film tried to make it a glitzy and opulent hive of scum and villainy but give it a more other worldly feel I would have liked it better..

Its weird because In SW its a just a bar and I don;t mind. But there is so many aliens , weird musical instruments playing music that sounds like it could be alien music, makes it feels otherworldly.

This felt more like a scene in a Bond film.. Just too much like a casino on earth.

I will say that the music in the background was reminiscent of the cantina scene.

This review is spot on, and the more I digest what I saw I hate it also. Seeing Yoda again doesn't make up for the rest of the garbage

wow, so now if someone doesn't agree with you "they hate women"... smh

Apparently you didn't read the post this was in response to.

It did actually. Leia never could have been the "other" hope that Yoda referenced in ESB. Because if Luke failed in rescuing her then she would have been dead too. Think about the dialogue between Yoda and Ben if you use the character's names.

"Luke is our last hope."

"No, there is Leia."

"You mean the person who will die if Luke fails?"

"Oh yeah, ****."

This was lawrence kasdans problem, if you make leia a jedi, then why not have luke kill vader, and then you have episode 7. But GL didn't want that. But yes, leia is indeed the other hope if Luke fails.

I'm going to say this now, if episode IX is not ****in awesome then this trilogy is worse Then the PT

 

[rushmore223]

Yep!

"Call me a nerd, call me a geek, but I was 10 when the original Star Wars came out and have been a fan ever since. Having said that, the new films most especially The Last Jedi are complete garbage and serve only as propaganda of the Left and especially the feminists. Men are portrayed as dumb, overly emotional, dangerously impulsive, full of mental baggage they can't get over, oppressive for the sake of being oppressive, pure killers for the sake of killing, exploitative, greedy and in general worthy of extermination.

Woman, on the other hand are portrayed as sensible, caring, brave, highly intelligent, strong leaders, born with amazing powers that don't require any training or work to perfect (especially from a man), and burdened and victimized by men's stupidity and thirst for power and blood. The word "Resistance" was said at least a dozen times. One of the brave female heroes had purple (Hillary's favorite color) hair. I'm just scratching the surface of the crap they put in the movie.

On top of that, the movie itself was poorly written, boring, and full on nonsensical plot lines. It checked off all the Feminist boxes but very few "good story telling" boxes. The only reason to see this film is as research on how far the sick "Progressive movement" will go to try and brainwash; especially the youth.

Although it was highly rated by critics, fan response has been very split and thankfully a large number of viewers have been able to see through this propaganda and have responded."

You got THAT from this movie!

You've got some baggage.

i think Jye's sister does for real



khev did already

Oh. Well the udder scene was a super interesting take on where blue milk comes from, and an important insertion of humor. The close up of Luke Skywalker squeezing nipples really got a great reaction in the theater I saw it in!

Yeah, felt very un-Starwarsy. Maybe Bond, a bit Fifth Element, maybe Star Trek, a bit of that cheesy nightclub in AOTC. Even the creatures in it dodn't seem very Star Wars (though many of the PT creatures I felt the same way about.)

The lesson about weapon dealing seemed so unrelated to the wider story.

I really liked the "idea" of a casino planet, but everything about the execution felt wrong - and the fact that the storyline that played out there felt like a waste of time didn't help. But then again, it was connected to that "constant spaceship pursuit" idea, which also made zero sense and seemed pointless to me.

I have let this "film" marinate for a few days and saw it again. It remains disjointed, agenda pushing, utter garbage of the worst kind. It completely disrespects the most successful film franchise of all time. Beloved characters have been badly besmirched. The list of problems in regard to structure, continuity, and storytelling are so extensive it would require a several paragraph essay to address. Rian Johnson should be dismissed and Kathleen Kennedy fired. It's really that bad.

Can we all agree the commander of the dreadnought was awesome.....best first order officer to date

 

[Darth Snoopy]

That's right I totally forgot about all the Snoke/Plagueis nonsense. Johnson really did dodge all the lame stuff I was braced for, lol.

Now have fun going back and reading the 200 pages of posts you missed while out today.

Thank God for that.

Who?

Hope he's back in the next one... Oh ya, wait but we have Phasma, oh... Ummm yes there is that snoke guy for sure he will be great in the next one...

 

[Shawpaw]

Gremlins will infest the millennium falcon during episode ix. Then Rey has to find ways to kill each one with novelty. Wait...that would actually be an awesome movie.

LOL this thread is growing 20 pages an hour, hard to keep up but please share the original post you were responding to.

However you were not specific, your comment was general and said "so many guys here seem to hate women". That transcends any specific post you may have been critiquing and speaks to how you think.

 

[aa909]

You got THAT from this movie!

You've got some baggage.

and you missed all that from this movie? you must be a millennial

True, but we had to get the "mock him because he's Canadian" thing out of the way.

Agree 100%. IMO JJ is going to have to pull off a miracle to save this

Was that the opening villain? He was good. Best commander since Veers. Better than Veers actually. I wish he stuck around longer and killed Hux and took his job.

Gremlins will infest the millennium falcon during episode ix.

I would like to see Star Wars Gremlins... but not in the Falcon. I do miss the "monsters" that used to inhabit Star Wars... like the dianoga or the Wampa. Those little side beats with creatures. I know TFA had the rolly-polly Rathtars but those sucked.

Lucas had a treatment for the ST.



Hamill said in an interview (3:49) that him and Trevorrow were on the same page about Luke.
