I feel like people that don’t like TFA or Rogue One are being treated like trolls. There seems to be little distinction between users that have legitimate and clearly articulated gripes and people that bitched constantly and rudely about how they’re the worst things ever.

I posted my thoughts on TFA right after its release (I think I rated it a 5/10 if memory serves, and I only saw it that one time in the theater) and haven’t bothered since because I didn’t think it was worth going against the prevailing (or at least most vocal) opinion. Maintaining that TFA is a mediocre movie is a difficult position to hold in this community.

I still haven’t seen RO (R1? I don’t know the shorthand) and have no definite plans to see TLJ unless I find a day over the holidays when I have nothing else to do.

I have little desire to see TLJ till the crowds die down. I waited a good month or two to see Rogue One in theaters.

You’re going to need one of these to remain spoiler free that long! 😉

Ha, yeah. I managed to wait a week or two for TFA and not see any spoilers. I deleted my FB account a while back and I mostly follow political topics on Twitter, so my exposure is minimal. I’m not even sure I care all that much though.

I’ve seen both RO and R1 used, I don’t think either one is preferred over the other.

But again, criticizing the films themselves is fine, but “finding it funny” that people might like it, or in other words laughing at their expense, is different.

As I say, I really don’t like Game of Thrones, or Breaking Bad, or Will and Grace, and I think Seinfeld is just okay. But my sister loves those shows and if I laughed about her liking them I’m fairly sure she would be insulted.

My mom set her phone on the kitchen counter while playing some online trivia game and someone in the chat typed a TLJ spoiler. It could be fake, but in any case I’ll spend the whole movie worried about it. Shit.

I feel your pain. That’s how TFA got spoiled for me. Some idiot in a chat room.

The more I think about it, the less legit that specific spoiler seems, but then again, what if? Ugh this is the worst. I think I’d rather have accidentally seen a spoilery image or clip because at least then I wouldn’t spend the whole movie worried about it.

Would it help if we could confirm or deny it in private?

No, I’m about to go see it right now, so I’ll just take my chances. Thanks for the offer, though; I’d probably take it if I wasn’t seeing it for a few more days or so.

Do tell after, though.

To my great relief, it was fake.

Spoiler… for something that didn’t actually happen… anti-spoiler?

Surprised no wise guys have said Gungans appear in the movie. They don’t.

Maybe we should have a fake spoiler thread for laughs.

^ Agreed. It is the only way…

😃

Edit - doh! Sorry Warbler, turns out there is a Gungan in TLJ, and it’s been known for a while:-

Fear not - it’s only a matter of time before Wook slips up again…

Right…

Anyway, what is it that compels people to declare that they’re not into Star Wars at times like this? I’m not into lots of things, but I see no need to expound on why it’s not my bag baby! on social media. It just comes off as a bit haughty to me.

What I don’t understand is when someone says they’ve never seen a Star Wars movie.

Like… never ever? Seriously??
