I hope my new years resolution is 4K.

Bah-dum-tish. Try the veal, tip your waiter.

In a way The Last Jedi is Disney’s veiled message, that we will probably never see the OOT released on (4K) bluray or any other form. TLJ’s message is clear. Out with the old, and in with the new. As a fan you either adapt or die. The OOT is the posterboy for the first generation of Star Wars fans. It represents the old, perhaps even the ancient, and not the new. Disney will put all their marketing power in selling this next generation Star Wars. The OOT has no place in this.

I think people are already getting tired of Star Wars. They seem to be miscalculating the market.

Much as I’d like to think so, there’s no evidence I know of to support this thesis.

Sheesh. TLJ has the second largest opening weekend in history… loosing to TFA.

Also losing to TFA, but yeah.

I can’t tell if trolling or just so (unreasonably) wounded personally that can’t see logic.

Yeah, Star Wars is around and it ain’t leavin. Take it or leave it.

Very much this mate.

(Though a 4K OOT release wouldn’t go amiss either 😉)

Personally my friends and I didn’t like the first Hobbit movie, so I’m honestly amazed the sequels got made.

This is why franchises exist…unlike standalone (I mean real standalone movies not, not franchise movies like R1) movies, they don’t have to do well based on their story or audience enjoyment. They do well based on the franchise they are based apart of. There is only one requirement: it must be decently made. And its never going to not be, because the studio will put lots of money into it.

This is the power of the franchise.

Station ?

Han: Hey Lando! You kept your promise, right? Not a scratch?
Lando: Well, what’s left of her isn’t scratched. All the scratched parts got knocked off along the way.
Han (exasperated): Knocked off?!

I thought about that but it’s still spelled wrong. 😉

I am like the lone apologist for those films.

I picked up the Extended Cut DVD’s the other day from Walmart and I just got through the first one last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. I haven’t gotten through the entire trilogy yet, but if the next two movies are as good as the first, I’ll put them on par with the LOTR Trilogy.

They aren’t as good as LOTR, I freely admit that. They have lots of problems, and there are huge chunks of them that you could cut out. But the accusation that they’re as bad as the Star Wars prequels is frankly just insane. The casting alone puts them head and shoulders above.

Well there’s people here who think every Disney Star Wars movie is worse than the prequels, so that’s not terribly surprising.

They have some of the same issues, being prequels and all, but their major faults are being terrible adaptations of the book.

Which doesn’t bother me in the slightest. All his books are overrated.

The only good adaptation of The Hobbit is in audio recording and comic book form.
