TLJ certainly pushes the envelope in that regard, not that the series hasn't been science fantasy for the whole ride.
I just looked it up, I remember. I was confused because for a sec I thought ascii was a term from the movie I missed.
Man, imagine whats gonna happen once Disney releases a SW that actually sucks
I'm starting to wonder if this whole ignore list feature is a mistake or if it should have a very small cap. It's like what's his name that bragged about instantly ignore listing anyone who posted 'conspiracies' to do with TLJ.
I mean...
I guess Star Wars is some serious shit, as they say.
My Memory is foggy how long was Holdo Erving up for hyper space when this happened?
if the solo rumors are true you may not have to wait long to find outMan, imagine whats gonna happen once Disney releases a SW that actually sucks
Rogue One had it's....problems, but it also had it's moments. I would say that the storyline is muddled, but the spectacle is too grand for it to be a bad movie.
I do wonder if people in 1983/1984 asked why all battles didn't begin and end with flying a tiny ship into the bridge of the first Star Destroyer they saw.
Which would be a good use for the A-Wing, one of the lamest starfighters in all of star wars
Oh yeah, I do remember that.The primary source of greivance seemed to be the concept of "fanservice" and whether the cool thing that happened in that movie (Vader killing people) was bad or fucking awful because it was fun and people liked it.
Basically yeah.I remember the Rogue One thread largely settling that the first half was disjointed as hell and rough, and then pretty quickly becoming a fight over whether the last half hour was better or worse than Jedi's last half hour.

edit: People quickly came to a consensus that the characterization was weak, and that the VFX didn't quite work, although people disagreed on whether it looked like a PS4 game (fucking what) or whether it just wasnt all the way there, with some straight up not being aware that Cushing was actually dead, so they were completely fooled.
To be fair, I'm pretty sure that's something that my old man actually mentioned to me when he showed me ROTJ.
Maaayyybe someone could think it's more enjoyable, but actually being a better product? Nah.

That's two, you get one more and then you get these babies.
Both of them I'd rather skip around to the good parts than sit through the whole thing.
I watched ROTS before watching Rogue One for the first time and the leap in quality from ROTS was insane. Can't see how anyone could seriously think ROTS is a better quality movie.
dis me cryin'
At least you didn't said Attack of the Clones
Yeah. And Ackbar all proud of himself for that A-Wing taking down the Executor's bridge vía kamikaze.
That would've gone down pretty well with today's Star Wars fans, if Leia would've had a huge grin on her face after Holdo's maenuver.
Edit: And by the way, would taking out the bridge of any Star Destroyer result in it going down like that? Sure, I guess we've all concluded that the hit resulted in a catastrophic systems failure and whatnot, but then that means the Rebel's could just focus on those big tall and prominent bridges in order to take a Star Destroyer down.

I'm trying to imagine the guys in the theater fighting back sniffles at Ackbar's kamikaze when Holdo is completely replaced by a foamhead fishman.
It sounds like a screening of Transformers: The Movie to me.
Also, related: Did you know someone apparently yells "So long, dickheads" in that shot of Ackbar slumping into his seat?
Same thing happened on Blade Runner. It's the mouths. Nobody can get the mouths right. They don't move correctly. The lips just sorta slide around.
