If someone wants, we could just have a thread with absolutely no limits on spoilers and make it very clear what you will find in the thread.

We do. We’re posting in it.

Good idea. We could call it: Episode VIII Discussion SPOILER THREAD

Oh screw it then. Who wants to talk about the first scene with Rey and Luke?

WARNING!

SPOL’RS!

Luke throws his old saber. But then Rey goes n gets it.
Chewie don’t like the porgs. But then he does.
Luke don’t wanna train Rey. But the he does.
Seems riveting.

And where are his wife, kid(s), and new New Jedi Order when this is all going down?

Oh, that’s right – they’re non-existent.

What could they possibly do to him? Force him to watch the Holiday Special? 😉

😃

I’m surprised no-one has done a Fan Edit of the Holiday Special - adding in such loved characters from The Prequel Trilogy like JarJar, Dexter, Grievous, Anakin etc, and include some sabre-twirling & high ground…

(though that could be a punishment too far 😉)

After 40 years of trying to unsee the last whisp of it still lodged in my memory (Wookies doing dishes in a kitchen sink ?), I have a strange desire to give it a second look. I guess it’s because it has our heroes as they were when there was just a one-of popular movie.

While I’m at it, I didn’t fully discuss the one spoiler I mentioned earlier because it seems like it may be a spoil too far even in here. The link is posted for anyone wanting to watch and you’ll know the scene the moment you see it. Give it a look if you’re curious.

Here’s my spoiler-filled bullet-pointed reviewed:

 

Edit by moderator - digitalfreaknyc has seen The Last Jedi already - ahead of it’s general release date.

If you want to know what he thought of it then scroll down (it does contain spoilers and events from the film) if you don’t want to see that… then you may want to bypass this post…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

spoilers begin here…

 

 

Luke dying is complete bullshit. It’s not explained. You have no idea it’s coming. And he deserved far more, as a character.

We didn’t need the burp.

BB-H8 was pointless.

I don’t get why DJ had that stutter. It wasn’t necessary…nor consistent.

Not enough Chewie.

I don’t remember anyone saying “I’ve got a really bad feeling about this.”

We needed more BB8.

Holdo says “godspeed,” I believe. Who the Hell is God?

Not enough lightsaber battles. The battle at the end of TFA was easily twice as long as the single one in this movie.

Not enough space battles.

I still don’t get why the republic ship was just sitting there forever.

Porgs are not nearly as annoying as you think they’re going to be. They’re pretty irrelevant and, honestly, didn’t need to be in the movie at all…and neither did the women who clean the temple.

The humor. There’s a lot of it. It was far too campy for a SW movie. Luke throwing the lightsaber behind him was funny…but i don’t think it’s going to hold up on multiple watches.

Again, don’t think this movie will hold up like TFA does. That one is very much a rocket-ship. I LOVED the pairings of Finn/Poe, Finn/Rey…etc.

Rose. Dear God…Rose. Go away. No one cares about you. The kiss is awkward and comes out of nowhere.

I’d love to hear about how TFA haters love this one…with lines of dialogue lifted right out of Jedi and Empire.

Why was the Emperor’s theme played during Snoke torturing Rey? Just cuz he was saying almost the same dialogue?

I was going to be extremely pissed if the movie ended with the big Falcon party when Luke just died. Fortunately it didn’t and ended on something far more poignant. However…that’s still sticking with me. Zero emotional weight. Luke deserves FAR, FAR better.

JW reused several pieces of music. I was actually surprised at how much repetition there was.

Phasma dies like a chump. She’s the Darth Maul of this trilogy. Deserved much, much better. Looked VERY cool. Did VERY little.

That’s it for now. I’ll add more if I think of more. I’ll be seeing it again on Thursday and I’ll add my thoughts.

That said, DO NOT expect massive spoilers. There is no “I am your father” moment. There are just some cool “ooh I need to see that” moments. Nothing earth shattering is revealed.

That’s why i said…temper your expectations.

 

 

spoilers end here…

For a film that hasn’t come out to the general public yet it may have been somewhat of a surprise to see that review with the content included (especially your first line of the spoilers you posted).

It may have been better / a little more considerate to have stated that you have seen film beforehand - then left a fair large blank space between that and the start of your spoilers - to give fellow members a choice.

It’s…a…spoilers…thread.

I didn’t realize its inconsiderate to post spoilers in the spoilers thread.
