There’s no way Avengers isn’t going to have a Star Wars trailer in front of it.

It's actually kind of stunning we don't have Marvelfest yet or some similar Celebration bullshit though maybe that's just Comic Con.

Making Star Wars (via patreon-exclusive podcast) is saying that Han is Rey's daddy, who had her when he was estranged from Leia. Kylo (and apparently Lando??) knows but nobody else does.

I don’t even blame JJ for this. Kevin Feige will go down as whatever the cigar chomping Hollywood bigwig generational talent is. No one but him seemingly can make these long connected franchises work. It’s just the most sad with Star Wars because I’d rather have movies I’ll never forget for the wrong reasons like the prequel then the totally forgettable messes we’ve gotten so far that really stink of studio mishandling.

Dark Rey is obviously a vision but I’ve tried and tried to come up with a way that it isn’t and doesn’t suck and all I got is that she was a Knight of Ren and has no memory of it for reasons.

Those spoilers are going to be as real as the GoT ones posted months before the finale that everyone desperately wanted to be false but were spot on.

These are all dumb enough to be JJ but everyone knows the only truly successful character in this whole dumb trilogy is Kylo and him getting unceremoniously Boba Fett'd feels a lot like a tell it's spoilers + fan fic. Plus they just bounce around and meet people like it's a fuckin' tabletop roleplaying game and you'd need way more time than that unless everything is shot walk and talk Sorkin style oh god i've put it out there it's real now

Teek posted:

Hmm, the Reddit/Bespin Bulletin spoiler provider has provided a lot more spoilers which serve to backtrack on quite a few things. All changes made through the “reshoots”. In my opinion, way more poo poo than what could actually be done in reshoots. Strikes me as just bullshit to bring it more in line with other more official stuff that has been coming out from merch. Meaning the big recent story outlines have been largely fake the whole time, just some extrapolating from real info that’s been released from trailers, merch and pictures and from some other older spoilers.

This happens for so many big releases now and I don’t understand what would make someone waste that much time and try to pass it off as legit. Attention? If it was like a “here are my predictions” it’d be one thing but I heard somewhere that the internet makes you stupid.

I feel like having kylo run the empire for a year kinda robs him of what thin goodboy momentum he had remaining, which was really propped up by the films taking place over two days. But sure, whatever, guess he's goodboy now

Which makes his death of falling down Springfield Gorge even dumber

Mcdiarmid is only 75

Certainly old enough to be old and injured and ham it up but if he eats Ren's force soul or whatever and then is in a big fight I could maybe see them switching out? Either way it's just weird his casting was so hyped and secretive for it to be a nothing character.

Or matt smith just got completely edited/reshot out of the movie. Turns out adding a bunch of new characters isn't a good way to remake return of the jedi :wth:

Kylo Ren was the only kind of interesting character borne out of the new trilogy, a Darth Vader fanboy with something to prove was unique and compelling. But he was squandered by the end of TLJ much like everyone else in the franchise.

The only reason I was interested in 9 was the completion of the Ren arc and him getting yeeted into a hole has me a little steamed hams but I could just not watch the movie too :shrug:

You can do that here. The comic suggests that disliking TLJ is a red flag because you're at best stupid if you do and a racist at worst. There are plenty of legitimate complaints you can make about the movie.

The mental gymnastics to go from "the Canto Bight stuff was weird and kinda bad and Rose and Finn's arc was silly" to "i'm a big dumb who hates women and minorities" is some tumblr-rear end 2019 internet everyone has brain worms poo poo. Discussing Disney properties outside of here is like talking about politics at Thanksgiving.

That kid was inspired by Rose; who is rather important in tlj in signaling what needs to change.

JJ won’t do any of this obviously

This is some of what makes me the most sad about 9. You set up a real rebellion and not just a coup by neolib princesses with money and status. It even ties into the themes of Rey's story of being nobody. Instead we're gonna get two special chosen ones fighting the confederate ghost of great grandpa Sheev.

It's so nice that Rose helped free the child slaves on Canto Bight instead of doing something stupid, like releasing the racing animals.

Ignoring Rose, the class stuff is good and had seeds of an interesting plot. They immediately fumbled the ball, but it's in there and that's the most frustrating. Not mad, just disappointed etc

Horizon Burning posted:

Well, there's a leak insisting that the Palpatine that died in RotJ was a clone and the Palpatine in TRoS is the original. This is because Palpatine knew Vader would betray him. It also says Leia, Lando, R2, 3P0, and Chewie die when the Falcon is blown up. Oh, and Palpatine says 'Execute Order 67.'

This feels like a parody. The storyboard pdf leak is going to be 100% because it’s so dumb and bland.
