I'd delete it, but it's how everyone schedules events and birthdays now. Scrolling through the feed is seriously soul-crushing, it's all ads and even the ads have ad breaks, and it's just people you friended back in college or some poo poo sharing that recipe video from Frank's Red Hot where they literally use up four bottles of their lovely hot sauce trying to make a sandwich

I'm mildly fascinated about how they did some of the special effects back in 1977 and that's about it.

EA GAMES' MASTERPIECE 'MADDEN 2018 G.O.A.T. EDITION' IS A GLORIOUS TRIUMPH OF ART AND TECHNOLOGY. IT BRINGS GAMEDAY RIGHT TO THE PLAYER AND WHOEVER SAYS OTHERWISE CAN, YOU GUESSED IT...
SUCK THE SHIT STRAIGHT OUT OF MY OWN ASSHOLE.

BUY IT.
The old movies had that spark of oddball originality. Let's go on a space adventure with a gay robot, barking dog man, and Frog Einstein.

The new movies are just dragging out old corpses to spray down with Febreeze and a fresh coat of paint.

What I don't get is why Disney bought this like massive universe which people have been coming up with stupid poo poo to throw in it for like what, 30 years and then proceed to just copy the original films or make stupid films relating to the original films or characters.

They could have hosed off with that stupid Han Solo movie and legitimately had their Star Wars version of Guardians of the Galaxy or whatnot and done very, very well with it. But they keep harping on the same 10 concepts. Their Marvel movies are trying to evolve but they just aren't doing that with this.

ED: Here Disney, you know how people like bounty hunters and Boba Fett? Well people don't want more loving Boba Fett, but they sure do want more "badass Bounty Hunter going around loving poo poo up," so there you go. A better Star Wars movie than anything planned. Hell just rip off the original story from Prey 2 and stick it in Star Wars.

Tell me a Star Wars version of that wouldn't be at least different:

Force choking is stupid and too complicated to explain away why they can or can't choke people (weakness to the force must suck) but on the other hand force pushing/pulling is badass and way way underused.

The poo poo Count Duku Lee does with all the heavy poo poo towards Yoda is only scratching the surface. I'd have a bag of sharp poo poo on hand to force throw 24/7.

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.

Star wars used to be super cool in the 80's, then they got hosed up in the early to mid 2000's, then it got cool again 2 years ago...and now the hype's just died out...it's gotten boring. Now there's gonna be a new star wars movie every year, a poo poo ton of merch that'll likely end up in landfills and dumpster fires, and it'll never ever go away because it's always in your face.

You could say... I'm just so tired of all these star wars.

I am a business magnet.
i saw episode one with my dad at a theater when i was like 10 or 11 i thought it was p cool but i had no reference for it.
i didn't watch the first one whatever it's now called until about a year ago and while it was good it didn't really impress me or anything so i have no context for the obsession with star wars and i haven't seen any other ones. i did like those little scrapper guys that's what i'd want to be in a Star War.

by being exposed to mass media i pretty much get the gist for the all of the ones i haven't seen. i knew exactly what was going to happen in the first one already just by having watched television and could probably suss out the plots of the rest without watching.
