Movie was kinda fun? I was expecting more western and less fan service but gently caress it if you’re going the fan service route then go all out and bring Darth loving Maul is definitely the way to go. I recognized the voice immediately (and the robo legs) so that was fun.

Lando movie loving robots across the galaxy when???

Republic and First Order fight to a stalemate in the decade following the events of TLJ and end up signing a peace treaty. First Order gets to hold onto the systems that it currently occupies (about 30% of the galaxy), but agrees to limits on the size of its fleet and standing army, and to dismantle its Death Star Tech programs. In exchange for honoring those terms, and for signing off on a galactic declaration of rights for sentient beings, it will receive food and aid money from the Republic for its poorest planets. However the Republic lacks the personnel to really make sure the First Order is honoring the rights declaration, so the peace treaty has a lot of critics. Then at the end aliens from another galaxy invade, setting up the next trilogy. Rey and Kylo get married and kiss each other on the mouth.

Oh cool I love that the *googles* Yuuzan Vong are going to be canon again!

All this talk about time travel and i have to ask: didn’t Star Wars Rebels (which is canon, I think?) already used time travel / Jedi timespace fuckery to save Ashoka?

The main argument over the destruction of the Death Star being a cataclysmic event for Endor is that everyone at the end of the movie is just partying and no one seems to have much sense of urgency about leaving.

Also doesn't Endor have oceans, just from what we see of it?

All planets in Star Wars are single biomes like a bad space game’s proc gen.

Gwendoline Christie sports both a wide emotional range and a physical prowess that makes her stand out among actresses.

I have no idea why she was cast in that role.

They really did her dirty. Casting someone as good as her for a boba fett role (looks cool, gets owned) is a drat shame.

I hope Palpatine’s return is incredibly boring and to the point. “Oh I had a cloning facility with a backup of my mind which would activate if I ever died. Actually I had a ton of them, surprise bitch there’s a dozen Palpatines now” and then all the red with troopers remove their mask and they’re all Palpatine and we get burly brawl 2.0 but with lightsabers this time.

If that's true, then drat Sheev REALLY believes in this Death Star plan. He's like a sports coach whose game plan won him one game at team 1 then totally failed after that once opposition coaches figured it out. But he gets picked up by 2 more teams and tries to implement the exact same game plan with both of them while constantly getting hammered.

People are saying that the video shown at that con confirms a bunch of leaks that got posted, including this ending stuff:

Its more like tearing up space but that stuff doesn't show up until the end of the movie during the final fight between Rey and Kylo Ren and its mostly happening because of Palpatine's spirit. Rey manages to hack Palpatine's power to do what he does like how she hacked into Kylo Ren in the first movie. She's like a sponge. The characters clash on the ruins of the Death Star but every time their lightsabers touch it sends them to a different moment in history on a different planet, like how Rey got swooped into those realistic visions in Force Awakens when she touched Luke's lightsaber. The end result is a "happy ending".

Kylo Ren and Rey clash for the last time. During the clash they keep shifting through time. Palpatine is becoming more powerful but so is Rey. Rey with the help of a struggling Kylo Ren is able to subdue Palpatine by creating a tear in the Force sucking him and Kylo in a la Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But Rey refuses to let him die so she uses her newfound ability to alter space and time to change destroy Palpatine's spirit itself which causes countless of moments and planets to flash before Rey and the film ends with a narration telling the story of Luke which clips showing where the characters are now in some kind of epilogue. Showing Finn living on his homeplanet with his family, Leia and Han holding each other while looking over a balcony, Luke looking over the horizon and looks back to see a large cone-shaped building behind him and Rey is on Tatooine at Luke's old home walking towards the double sunset and looks at it the same way Luke did. She's then joined by Kylo Ren who puts his arm around her shoulder and the film irises out


lol

this is bad

The problem is the saber portion is obviously a prop so it has more weight and momentum and it’s throwing the whole movement off because only the hilt should have weight.
