Great post RU! I also liked the jerky gunner seat in TFA. Little details like that are so important in a film; it’s too bad there weren’t nearly enough of them.
Many thanks!
Maybe your friend should direct Episode VIII. Or at least be on set to keep the director, special effects team and editor in line. He sounds like he really has a handle on this whole filmmaking thing. Disney are missing a trick.
I was just giving an example bro. I’m the one who said Robocop was done well, not him. What my friend said was “I still can’t believe that’s done with a man in a suit!!” Like I said that’s a credit to everyone involved in suspending disbelief. But I see no suspension of disbelief with Snoke - he looks like a rendered graphic.
But look at ESB- Yoda was a puppet! And the last thing that Lucas, or for that matter Kershner, wanted was to make it look like a muppets moive!
No, it’s a terrible post, because Jay has been defending TPM. I don’t even know where that post came from.
Um OK. Like I said I think it’s better than AOTC or (shudder…) ROTS. Jay said IIRC that he thinks TFA is better than TPM, but I don’t. I think it’s at the level of the prequels and a good movie in its own right, but unnecessary in the SW canon. TFA may not have had a silly character just for kids like Jar Jar, but it had little to no originality and didn’t expand the SW universe. In TPM everything was original, even Tatooine was shown in a new context. In TFA when we see Jakku it may as well be Tatooine, minus the second sun.
