Chuck Buried Treasure posted:I was fine with most of the story bits on paper but it absolutely should have been two movies—ideally Disney would have actually planned out the trilogy in advance but making it a quintet instead of a trilogy would have worked too. Nothing gets built up to, it just happens and then we’re immediately rushed to the next setpiece because we don’t have time to let anything breathe. The opening crawl just being like “oh hey guys Palpatine is back” is the most obvious thing but the whole movie is like that. This, really. ep 9 feels like two and a half movies' worth of Star Wars Things happening crammed into the runtime of one.

nine-gear crow posted:And even that you can watch Palpy’s Fornite message on YouTube. It’s basically just ten seconds of Ian McDiarmid going “I’m back bitches, gently caress The Last Jedi!” Honestly Ian McDiarmid hamming out is the best gift Star Wars has ever given us. The man's straight up fun to watch go into full cackling villain mode.

Cease to Hope posted:you have not even begun to plumb the depths of star wars collector poo poo, i see more like they didn't make them the centerpiece of the marketing i mean of course there's tons of super expensive star wars bullshit for Blue Story or whatever her name was, but the golden mechs were so obviously a cash grab and came right after the double-whammy of Clans and GHOST HEAT: THE MAGNUM OPUS so it felt worse to me. also i was playing mwo back when that happened

zori felt like them trying to do captain phasma again and make 'boba fett but a girl' because that was the stated intent of phasma and then she got literally dumpstered and did nothing cool then they were surprised by their cool female villain not getting over with the fans
