Eeeeeeh. There's nothing wrong with the Ewoks, the one ewok trying to wake up his dead friend is one of the best parts. But the second act sucks and the Endor part of the finale is really lifeless. The effects for the Death Star run are cool but its hard to care about what's going on since it's a retread of the finale of Star Wars. A lot of the film is just shot and staged really lazily too. Jabba's Palace rules and the Throne Room rules but ROTJ is like tied for fifth best Star Wars film.

Dessel posted:Also was Corellia retconned into a poo poo hole now? I swear it has been portrayed as a decent place in SW fiction before, all things considered. I mean I get that a planet would/could have various standards of living, especially during times of Galactic unrest. It's never been portrayed in the films before, as far as I remember. Maybe it has in one of the TV shows, but books or other media don't really count. Vinylshadow posted:Hyperfuel, eh? Presumably the fuel that lets you fly in space and the fuel that lets you jump to hyperspeed are different.

Doctor Spaceman posted:Sam Worthington was the lead actor in the biggest movie of all time. Hey, he was good in Sabotage. But that's about 80% costuming.

Timby posted:God drat it, I'm a huge Mangold fanboy, but him doing Star Wars--a solo Boba Fett movie, no less--leaves me absolutely cold. Yeah, I have absolutely zero interest in a Fett movie and was glad when Josh Trank got booted from it because then he could do something else. Make another Cop Land instead, Mangold!

Gonz posted:Also, apparently Chewie eats people. I think they mention that they haven't fed Chewie in days, so it was more like Imperial racism. I don't know if Chewie was actually trying to eat Han or just attacking him because he was mad. He definitely should have pictured Han with the body of a roasted Porg like it was a Looney Tunes episode though. Gonz posted:And less of Emilia Clarke, who is a heinous actor. I really want to know what kind of direction Ron Howard could have been giving her that she liked so much more than Lord & Miller's "you're a woman from a film noir" because I didn't see much of anything on screen. I'm neutral about her on Game of Thrones and actually didn't hate her in Terminator Genisys but, man, this was a nothing role as written and she brought nothing to it.

Milky Moor posted:imagine if you had've said to people, hey, this is how the disney-era star wars is going to go. no one would believe you. you'd probably have been banned from any and all star wars discussions. "Disney is going to make yearly Star Wars films including unimaginative origin stories for popular characters" wasn't exactly impossible to predict.

Neo Rasa posted:Speaking of Trevorrow we got around to seeing Jurassic World yesterday and wow, they made a flick worse than Jurassic Park 3. Joe Johnston is a good director from time-to-time. Trevorrow's best film is a bottom-tier indie comedy.

There's no way they recast Leia and Episode IX is obviously gonna start with her funeral. Anything else would be totally insane. But I also think it'll be crazy if they don't revisit DJ, unless they're saving him for Johnson's separate trilogy. He was my favourite part of TLJ. I love Benicio and his mellow Roger Rabbit-meets-Han Solo vibe was very dope.

Slutitution posted:It had a $700 million drop from TFA, which is insane. Most audiences didn't like it on aggregate scores. Meanwhile, each successive Marvel movie keeps making more and more money each time. But keep dying on that TLJ hill, I guess. This is a really stupid lie.
