Depending on the story line force sensitives can eventually become full-fledged jedi but that obviously didn't happen here.

Because he certainly had a lot of feelings about blank and knew when Rey died. At a certain point in the denouement I realized he wasn't gonna tell her and boy did that take the air out of their group hug for me.

I think it’s disappointing that this trilogy doesn’t make any attempt to envision what a Jedi philosophy that overcomes the flaws of the prequel era Jedi might actually be. There’s no real sense of what it means to be a Jedi now—Rey is just sort of generically resistant to temptation and overcomes her foes by being real powerful. So we're left with just the promise of an open future where Rey can shape the Jedi however she chooses—which is exactly where Luke was 35 years earlier.

Davros1 posted:I love when Qui-Gon straight up backfists Maul. it’s dope. Qui Gon was a boss. my favorite part of it is right after that, the little moment when Obi Wan pulls himself up, and DotF is at that quiet part as he looks up to see Qui Gon fighting on alone before he jumps back up to run after them. Idk why just that little breather and bit of imagery from his perspective always has stuck with me. there’s a really specific sense of place and feeling it conveys

I thought Poe and Rey might have been a thing after TLJ, I don’t really know why exactly. It’s not like they shared any scenes together.

New trilogy directed by Quinten Tarentino. Establishing shot is whatever his species's equivalent of age 28 Yoda drinking a space milkshake and listening to The Mamas and the Pappas.

FilthyImp posted:For what it's worth, that battle is a whole slice of interesting and dynamic. Park did a great job selling the physicality of Maul. Probably my favorite is when the barriers separate the three and Qui-Gon just kind of zen's out in meditation while Maul paces back and forth like an anxious animal. I like the bit in the aftermath of Qui-Gon's death where Obi-Wan is psyching himself up just before the barrier opens.

the weirdest thing about all this is watching people who adamantly, furious argued how Great it was that rey was no one and wasn't related to anyone when TLJ came out... are now just going on about how good it is that she's a palpatine

MJeff posted:At a certain point in the denouement I realized he wasn't gonna tell her and boy did that take the air out of their group hug for me. Hey, take a moment to think back about everything that happens in the movie. Really let it wash over you. Ok, are you ready? Hux did more to meaningfully advance the goal of saving the galaxy than Poe and Finn did in the last movie of the trilogy. Literally nothing they did mattered or made sense. Their final "mission" is stupid busy work for babies, predicated on the idea that a ship moving up will suddenly lose the ability to move up if a blinky console thing isn't there to go "No, the direction you are going is still up". They could have died instantly after delivering Hux's message and nothing would have changed. The only thing required for victory in the end is for Lando to Lando it up.

Mandrel posted:TPM is on TNT and its at the duel of the fates part The thing I do appreciate about the fights in the prequels is that you get some continuity in technique from Qui-Gon to Obi-Wan to Anakin. Obi-Wan does Anakin's signature backflip strike over the enemy thing twice in the fight with Maul, and Qui-Gon's style is very similar to how Obi-Wan fights in the Eps 2 and 3.

There’s no real sense of what it means to be a Jedi now—Rey is just sort of generically resistant to temptation and overcomes her foes by being real powerful. Well, it's a little different. With Luke, Kenobi and Yoda weren't really trying to give him much philosophy. They were just forging a weapon that could kill Vader and the Emperor. What bits they did give Luke cast the Jedi as perfect noble souls who were foully betrayed by Vader and that's why they fell. Luke's training of Rey involved pounding the idea into her that the Jedi hosed things up royally and were very much fallible. He also shared his own failures as a teacher with her. That perspective is going to be vital when she does choose to train others. Assuming she doesn't just decide to be a hermit somewhere having spirit sex with Force ghost Ben Solo since Force ghosts can perform physical actions now.

The prequels and Solo were all bad. Rots was least bad of these. Return of the Jedi was slightly better. A New Hope and Force Awakens were OK films and good Star Wars films. RoS was flawed but had some great moments so as a whole I'd say it belongs here. Rogue One and TLJ were good films on their own. Empire is the best of the lot. To me a Star Wars movie is about setting, props, sound design and characters. Kylo saves the new films for me from a character perspective, and the direction of the action setpieces has the weight of the original series that the Prequels lacked.

Not to defend the movie too much but Palpatine straight up says that no one has had the ability to heal with the force for centuries.
