Episode 7 and obviously 8 aren't in the same league as Episode 3.

Re: The Movie News Thread - new Trek rules, Man of Steel in
The George Lucas prequels have plenty to cringe about but they look like Star Wars movies. The Force Awakens felt like a smaller movie by comparison. Compare the Qui-Gon & Obi-Wan vs Darth Maul battle with anything from The Force Awakens. There's no comparison. The massive scale set piece battles with orchestral score going full pelt is what makes it feel like a Star Wars movie IMO.
Rey's fitted, jedi-themed outfit in the trailer looks like it was designed and constructed by Gucci, btw. It's a long way from the modest, uncomplicated robes Jedi have worn in previous films.

Peeps will love Episode 9 because JJ will just re-tell Return of the Jedi.
Kylo Ren will probably throw the reborn Emperor down an exhaust pipe, Rey will wear a metal bikini, and teddy bears will save the day

Re: The Movie News Thread - new Trek rules, Man of Steel in
You can't retell ROTJ because there's no real large enemy to fight, there's Kylo Ren that no one is sure why anyone cares about beating anymore. I mean does that mean they won't try? Seems like they are going too.. I mean what could go worse than the last one right?
Vzzzbx, you lose again!

Re: The Movie News Thread - new Trek rules, Man of Steel in
There's a pattern of shit films out of the SW franchise. Last movie of first trilogy was worst, first movie of second trilogy was even worse and second movie of this trilogy was pretty bad. We've had our shit movie this time around. Even if the third is a retelling of Jedi, it worked for TFA.Ambrose Burnside wrote:Peeps will love Episode 9 because JJ will just re-tell Return of the Jedi.

Regardless, next month I'm going to this to wash the taste of TLJ out of my brain. https://www.sparkarena.co.nz/star-wars- ... ikes-back/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Re: The Movie News Thread - new Trek rules, Man of Steel in
His story suggestion of beimg there with Leia when Solo died sounded WY better than what we got. Plus Leia hugging Rey and ignoring Chewy after, Solos death was wtf.

Leia should definitely have hugged Chewie. Space Leia was also the worst thing ever.

New Terminator trailer out. Can't link it on my phone, but that saves you from seeing it. Looks average. Arnie stays in a remote cabin fishing and stuff. James Cameron wrote it.

Star Wars died at Episode 8 is the consensus. Hard pass.

Re: The Movie News Thread - new Trek rules, Man of Steel in
I thought it LOOKED great (special effects wise) but other than that, trailer was terrible. Disney have fucked Star Wars up so badly that, in my eyes, it can't recover.stanard wrote:Pffft looks freakin awesome

The Trailers for Episode 8 were fantastic too, except the movie completely sank the quality of the franchise. Hard pass.

Re: The Movie News Thread - new Trek rules, Man of Steel in
It looks good in the trailer but VIII killed it for me so I won't be giving Disney my money. I can watch the original Trilogy over and over and maybe that's nostalgia that blinds me but any other movie in the series I've struggled with more than twice, except Rogue One, I've seen that 4 times now and enjoy it each time. Solo needs a second watch when I'm not being annoyed by kids.

And Emporer Palpatine.
Who was thrown down a shaft.
And then the Death Star exploded.
With Palpatines body inside.
And no Jesi had sensed him since.
But he's in the movie.
