Thankyou Jeebus for my first big belly-laugh of the year around these parts. 😃

Either of those ideas would make worthy candidates for TF’s eventual ā€˜Ep. III: The Last Ridiculous Jedi’ edit I reckon.

(or should that be ā€˜Ep. III: The Not Quite Last Ridiculous Jedi’, seeing as we don’t know what’s going to happen in J.J.'s NEXT movie?)


…And just thinking aloud, but I quite like how the latest movie’s view of random, NON-'Jedi-trained ā€˜Force-sensitives’ appearing here-and-there in the Star Wars galaxy can retro-actively apply to Donnie Yen’s ultra-skilled ROGUE ONE character also. Personally, it helps me to accept his exceptional abilities much easier now, considering he was totally blind…and the way he managed to walk through all those shots unscathed - so I’ll definately consider Chirrut Imwe as indeed being someone who was ā€˜one with the Force’ in the truest sense, the next time I watch that movie.

I’m still going to lose that ā€˜broom lad’ ending from my own cutlist though - not saying that the funny ā€˜child-scaring monster’ moment and ā€˜Spielberg-ian’ final shot were a bad way to end things for audiences…but I’d just prefer to have that last hyperspace shot of the Falcon as the ending for myself as it leads us to the next instalment…to give this a more sombre finale, considering we effectively lost the Leia and Luke characters during this…and because I want reminded of ā€˜younglings’ as little as possible in my own version. 😃
