Milky Moor posted:It's so cool that in, say, ten years or so, perhaps less, people will be begging for the new Star Wars EU to be washed away. I don't think it'll happen because unlike the PT, the movies so far have had some great characters and they're at least well-acted. Just lol when you compare Kylo Ren or Rey to Anakin from the PT. He was supposed to be the backbone of the prequels. Half the time he opened his mouth you just want to say "just shut up" out loud.

Plus they might not even use the same type of fuel. But for all its majesty and technological knowledge, how the galaxy hasn't invented nuclear powered engines for their bigass flagships is beyond me. thrawn527 posted:This apparently takes place before the second fight with Kenobi. uhm, I might be mistaken, but isn't Clone Wars the TV show not cannon anymore?

Dishwasher posted:I'm not shocked at the rumors of splitting the story into two films and sorta predicted it with the lack of focus on the Roman numbering this go round. lol. They neglected the roman numerals in the marketing because that's what the original trilogy did. It wasn't until the prequels came out that "Episode X,Y,Z - Movie Title Here" started. The original sequels were billed as Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. All of them had the episode number in the opening crawl though.

Smoke is just the latest rear end in a top hat in charge and it's better that way. Pretty funny it flusters so many feathers amongst aspiring screenwriters though!

ozza posted:Literally all TLJ had to do to lay some sort of interesting groundwork for the next film was to follow through on the thematic and narrative elements it had established, and have Rey and Kylo join forces as some sort of middle-way, neither-dark-nor-light Jedi. Rey sees some hope for redemption in Kylo, Kylo apparently remains wavering in his commitment to the dark and asks Rey to teach him to be good. There: something new and exciting for the next film to explore. TLJ already went up to the doorstep of doing this, only to then turn and run back out into the night, making GBS threads itself as it went. Holy poo poo! Someone hire this man to write all future Star Wars films! This is genius material! cargohills posted:all Rian Johnson had to do to make a good film was to shoot my awful fanfiction And this is what it all boils down to. Almost every complaint about TLJ begins and ends with the fact that it wasn't exactly what the person had in mind. Tough poo poo, time to grow up.

The Last Jedi was so poorly written and nonsensical that JJ Abrams stated that he wished he could have directed it after he read it. The Last Jedi was so terrible that Lucasfilm invited the writer/director back to write and direct his own trilogy of films.

Wheat Loaf posted:See, I didn't get that impression from it and I wonder if it's because while I was broadly aware of all the theorycrafting going on, I wasn't a participant in it or anything. Like I mentioned before, one of the things that sincerely surprised me after TLJ came out was discovering that all these people were apparently incredibly invested in the backstory and identity of Snoke beyond him being an evil emperor archetype, because I was just going by TFA and as I mentioned in the last few pages I honestly didn't get the impression from TFA that he was being set up as anything more than that. You know what's hilarious? Most of these people are still coming up with insane theories that are equally as horrible as "Smoke is Mace Windu" or whatever flavor of the month youtube video said pre-TLJ. I think they're all in denial. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mZZAvIHMvQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHRpD7llLSU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Gg6iZH9toc also fan fiction https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjLWBbYm9_s

Papercut posted:As many people have pointed out, his pivotal role in Kylo Ren's character arc begs for further explanation. It's fine if you like that he's barely even a character, but telling anyone who disliked the film to grow up while simultaneously praising the lack of character development is ironic. There has been character development involving the main characters. If you want something that explores the tertiary characters, might I suggest the novel companion book or some of the comic books to wet your whistle?

Wheat Loaf posted:Snoke as a component of Kylo's backstory was something that needed more development than it got and I think that's one thing that confuses me a lot: I've seen a great deal more of "Who was Snoke?" as a complaint than "How did Snoke turn Kylo bad?" and I think the latter is a more interesting and probably a more important question which nonetheless seems to get far less attention in any of these "WHY THE LAST JEDI WAS A CINEMATIC TRAVESTY AND KATHLEEN KENNEDY IS AN SJW WHO SHOULD BE PUT IN FRONT OF A FIRING SQUAD IMMEDIATELY" videos that YouTube keeps recommending me than the former does. Why is Snoke's backstory needed for us to accept that he turned Ben? Like he's just a lovely evil dude and guess what, ultimate power is seductive and corrupts vulnerable people into doing terrible poo poo. Like a confused kid with a lovely dad like Han Solo.
