It's funny you highlight Ridley, I feel like it's Driver that would be the less likely.Contracts would be for 3 films. There won't be more unless Disney backs the Brinks truck up.
Just my own personal speculation, but I don't think Daisy has much interest in continuing past her contractually obligated films.
We don't really know that. Ridley seems happy to be in Star Wars. She just doesn't want to do it forever, which is fair enough. I think Driver enjoys doing them as well. He's just not too keen on the media circus. I don't expect him to continue past IX though.Weird that all these young actors seemed pretty excited to be in TFA, and now only Boyega seems happy to be in Star Wars.

*shrugs* for all your talk, you're just expressing the beliefs of certain characters in the series. There is definitely a belief within the Star Wars universe that the force has a manifestation or will.There is no will of the force. I keep seeing this time and time again in this thread but the force is not some intelligent lifeform that makes decisions.
If that were so then how did the Jedi order maintain an era of peace for so long without threat from the Sith? Also, what would be the point of Rey starting a new Jedi order if the force will just choose someone to destroy it?
All this talk about Anakin bringing balance or Snoke's lines were just expressions of religious beliefs.
It's like me saying "God chose for you to be the way you are." Do people think that or do they think their background is due to chance?

He's legitimately top tier, and I could see him spending the next ten or so years focused on more 'mature' material.
I'd imagine the racists, sexists and other bigots would have much more to do with whatever unpleasantness these people have with being associated with SW than being a part of the critically acclaimed movie much liked by almost everyone that is one of the top movies of all time box office result wise.

None of them are at Alec Guinness levels of hating it yet haha.
I also believe this is pretty much why Rey exists. If you notice in The Force Awakens, she doesn't even use her Force powers UNTIL she touches Anakin's lightsaber and has that vision. I think that was the "awakening" so to speak. I believe she inherited the role of the Chosen One in response to Ben Solo falling to the dark side.The Force clearly has a will if Snoke is to be believed that Ren ensured there would be a Rey. If for every notable dark side Force user, there will be a light side counterpart, and even if one hasn't naturally occurred, the Force will 'awaken' one.
I take the concept of the 'balance' to be that the Force doesn't want good or bad to win, it wants the struggle. It wants the test. Maybe because people are at their greatest when driven, and nothing provides drive like wanting to conquer the Galaxy or end the Space Nazi rule.
It just doesn't make much sense for it to be sentient and "willing" dumb shit like the balance of the Force. The Jedi and Sith can believe and preach it all they want, ultimately it's just likely this stuff is somewhat cyclical just by virtue of the nature of man/sentient beings than a force of the universe actually creating creatures of opposite sides to fight each other. Rey is only a Jedi rising to fight against evil Kylo because Kylo exists and is doing things that warrant people opposing him, not to restore balance.*shrugs* for all your talk, you're just expressing the beliefs of certain characters in the series. There is definitely a belief within the Star Wars universe that the force has a manifestation or will.
You're basically saying 'there is no god' and well, prove it.
No, edgelords making shitty jokes just annoy me.Have you been paid? You should have been paid. You can really pull off the fan in fanatic.
Well, I was being sarcastic. I've got nice things to say about it too. It's beautifully shot.
I also liked the porgs.
Even as a joke this doesn't really work since the acting is great and it was critically acclaimed. Unless you're referring at the online abuse from "fans" that they are getting.
Does he? What dialogue are you referring to?I think this is why Snoke clearly said the more powerful Kylo gets, the more powerful Rey gets. There's a connection between the two there that hasn't been quite explained yet. Kylo also speaks to Rey with familiarity in The Force Awakens.
I cried with relief when I discovered Treverrow was gone too.Just to clarify: Kubrick helmed some of the best movies in cinema history, and yet actors absolutely hated working with him. Sometimes the two things go hand in hand. For example, Ridley's incredible enthusiasm for JJ's return to helm the franchise could lead us to think she prefers working with him.
Not sure where you're all seeing this "lack of enthusiasm"
the entire cast has seemed charming, enthusiastic, and excited in every piece of press I've seen them do.

That's an interesting point actually.She did apparently cry when Trevorrow told her Rey´s fate in IX. It does make me hope some of Treverrow´s stuff gets leaked somewhere down the line, just to read what he had planned.
To claim Mark has been anything but enthusastic would be a complete falsehood. Mark has called Rian the greatest director of his career and the best filmmaking experience of his life.

How does nature have a balance? Animals evolve to adapt to the naturally available resources, but that process is in no way separate from the 'people fucking it up'.This doesn't mean at all that the Force has a will. The Force could just be like nature. I mean, there is balance achieved in nature (until people fuck it up) with no guiding "will" behind it. I'd say "Life finds a way" but even that implies a will (when that's not what Ian Malcolm meant, and not what took place in JP).
I'm trying to break the circlejerk by showing not everything with TLJ and its reception is as black and white, fine and dandy, as some would like to believe...I'm not doing it just for 'trolling'.

Using Mark Hamill who takes offense to anyone trying to claim he was anything but enthusiastic about the film is a pretty foolish way to go about "breaking the circlejerk" man.I'm trying to break the circlejerk by showing not everything with TLJ and its reception is as black and white, fine and dandy, as some would like to believe.

I'm not sure this makes sense given what happened in TLJ. The whole point of Luke in TLJ is to demonstrate how the old Jedi Order was bad. Yoda even says students are what mentors move beyond.I think you can have a climactic lightsaber battle between Kylo and Rey without it compromising the new Jedi way. She'll probably fight defensively the entire time until Kylo is too exhausted to fight or until it's perfectly clear to Rey that there is absolutely no way to save Ben.
