Low Desert Punk posted:i've watched all these movies and read the new leaks and I am still extremely confused what the loving point of Finn was Finn was originally supposed to get more of Poe's storyline of becoming a resistance leader, as well as him being force sensitive mattering in some significant way with the larger dark vs light conflict, and also being more of a romantic interest for Rey. Then they reshot TFA to have Poe live (in part because Oscar Isaac was having his breakout moment), the force sensitive stuff got ignored in TLJ, and the romance thing just never materialized. It really left him with nothing to do, which is a shame because Boyega is great and one of the best parts of TFA.

Mooey Cow posted:If Disney fans want to go read a comic book where it's revealed that actually Palpatine meant for everything in TPM to happen exactly as it did, that's their problem, but it's not in the movies. In the movies, "the ability to create life" probably isn't even real, and Sheev for sure doesn't have it, and his plan is to start a war as a pretext for taking over the galaxy and killing all the Jedi. He doesn't need Anakin; having him is just a bonus. That's old cinema. New cinema, like videogames, requires you to get all the DLC to get a coherent story.

Finn was one of the few things I really, really enjoyed about TFA, i was really irritated when they had the opportunity to really examine the psychological state of a nameless, faceless, expendable foot soldier and then they just... didn't do that

They left the bit in where Kylo stares at Finn for some reason. The reason being he senses the force in him as his panic brought it out.

It seems like the only people who can love this movie are those who vehemently hated The Last Jedi because of what it did to “the saga” or “Luke’s character” (as opposed to because it was a bad movie). - People evaluating it from an unbiased perspective/who don’t care about TLJ recognize TROS has huge flaws as a movie - People who liked TLJ are going to hate it because it quickly tries to undo everything they liked about TLJ It sure seems like they made a movie that appeals to only a slim minority of people

If they really wanted to please fans, the last scene in the movie would be a de-aged Luke Skywalker waking up and saying, "What a horrible nightmare." He then walks to the teachers lounge at the Jedi academy and tells Kyle Katarn he had this dream where nothing he did mattered and he and all his friends died as bitter old failures.

Palps ‘n Kylo: BFF’s https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsLeaks/comments/ecfl4i/opening_scene_kylo_meets_palpatine/ Edit: Kylo & Rey whoopin’ on fools https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsLeaks/comments/ecfsk5/reykylo_vs_palpskor/ Loved the “Sorry guys. It’s not personal; just business” gesture that Kylo gives the Knights. Adam Driver has been one of the best parts of these movies, if not THE best part.

My buddy somehow completely missed all Star Wars when he was growing up, at 36 years old he had never seen a single one. Zero interest. Then he caught part of TFA on Netflix a friend's house and loved it, and binged all the movies and shows before going to see TLJ in theaters, which he also loved. His house and work desk are covered with BB-8 and Rey toys. He got him & me tickets for opening night tomorrow and I can't wait.

Even the way he clowns on Hux in the beginning would work better but you could keep Poe there and just have him get blown up in the hangar attack. Then Finn has to stick around and step up to help manage things, maybe dealing with people suspecting him of betraying them to the First Order, while feeling conflicted about not being able to go after Rey. Dunno how you set up a confrontation with Phasma - maybe he negotiates to give himself up to buy the rebellion some time - but can't be any worse than what we got anyway.

quote:Why do these trashy assholes have to racialize and politicize everything? I hate these people. Star Wars was something beautiful and now I can't seperate it from the controversy. I really am tired of having to defend myself all of the time, I am not racist, I am not sexist and I don’t have to defend a goddamn thing. The media are the racists and sexist ones it is all they loving think about. gently caress them. Normally I’d laugh but I just hate these kinds of people so much.
