Remember when we’d meme about John Boyega saying there’s no right order by proposing an order with AotC four times? Well now it’s no longer the worst.
Renumber the series to confuse the hell out of the audience.
Episode I: TRoS
Episode II: TESB
Episode III: TFA
Episode IV: RotS
Episode V: TPM
Episode VI: ANH
Episode VII: AotC
Episode VIII: RotJ
Episode IX: TLJ
For sure.
Does “scrap the entire script before filming” count as one thing?
Well that’s not far off from what they did. I always compare the last minute script to Jurassic Park III which actually scrapped its entire script weeks before filming and wrote a new one as they were shooting. The weirdest part is the finished film is actually really good. Shame the same can’t be said for TRoS.
Oh man, you’re really missing out on Series 10.
Jeez, why you getting so aggressive?
Look, all evidence points to him constantly changing his mind. Yes, he’s said he wanted to do 9 films. There was also a time when he wanted to do 12. In 2005 he’d settled on 6 and hasn’t walked back on it since. Yes, he did propose Sequels to Disney, but only because they were gonna make them anyway.
I never noticed that about Dooku. Good catch, Redditor!
Nah, it was tainted by some Darksider at some point. Which is dumb.
Okay but it’s still his inner darkness he’s facing there, not the spirit of some long dead Sith. The dude that “definitely not Yoda” killed just imbued the cave with a connection to the Dark Side. That manifests as Luke’s vision of Vader, but it’s still in his head. He’s only facing himself.
Or at least that’s how I interpreted it.
I prefer it being a total psychological thing rather than there being a “Force nexus” tied to a physical location.
Now it’s starting to sound like you guys are saying Luke had a vision just because. Is he schizophrenic? No, of course the Force was involved. I don’t really see why it being strong in certain places is an issue, especially since Yoda implies he knows that Luke will have some sort of experience in the cave. Otherwise he wouldn’t bring him there. The movie itself absolutely implies that the cave itself has a special connection to the Force.

Rey being a Palpatine is a valid thing to complain about.
Okay, so not “all the people”.
“Exeggcute, TM66.”
Completely replace Yoda with a Pikachu. He just says Pikapi the whole time.
It’s hard to say as Steven Spielberg said in a 90’s BBC special that part of George’s concept for the Prequels was the Sequels. He also slipped up in an interview during the lead up to Attack of the Clones where he mentioned story points in II have to connect with VII.

Sparky, that is not a fair analogy. I was presenting an meme that illustrates my perception of Ric_Olie2’s argument, not of Ric_olie2 himself. Stop treating it like an ad hominem. I can repost the image with just the text and no wojaks if that helps.
I absolutely despise all the people hating on Chris Chibnle’s run on Doctor Who.
All of them? I think that’s a bit harsh. Spoilers ahead.
I wouldn’t describe myself as hating Chibnall’s run as I give it credit where credit is due. Generally speaking I avoid taking any extreme side on fan reception to these sorts of things, preferring to stick to a middle ground of “yeah it sucks, but it has its moments” or something to that effect. Point is I don’t particularly like Chibnall’s Doctor Who, but I do think the treatment it’s gotten is a little harsh.
However, I think there are a lot of things wrong with it that should not be ignored.
The companions have no character. They might as well be cardboard cutouts. A lot of people say that’s because three companions is too many but I strongly disagree. It worked flawlessly with Amy, Rory, and River. Yes, she wasn’t a fulltime companion, but that’s besides the point, as all three had distinct roles and personalities in the episodes they shared. I think Yaz, Ryan, and Graham could have easily all been fully developed without having to drop a single one of them.
A lot of people also say Thirteen doesn’t act like the Doctor, but I strongly disagree. Whittaker’s pitch perfect in the role. The Doctor doesn’t always need to have a darker side or be the most powerful person in the room who has everything under control. She can be just a ditzy doofus travelling the universe and running into trouble. That’s all the Classic Series ever was. I’ve heard many people say Jo Martin is a better Doctor but I feel the total opposite. Whittaker felt like the Doctor from the minute she landed in that trained in Sheffield, while Martin still doesn’t feel like the Doctor yet. Oh and the Dhawan Master is perfect too.
The episodes have been mostly mediocre, with a few standout exceptions. I quite liked Kerblam but a lot of people despised the ending. Demons of the Punjab has been the pinnacle of the entire run so far with Rosa not far behind. Noticing a trend there of the historicals coming out on top, as they’re the one thing that has gotten indisputably better under Chibnall. The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos was literally one of the worst Doctor Who stories I have ever had the displeasure of seeing. At the end of the day, though, most episodes were just middle of the road. One trend I’ve picked up on that seems pretty consistent is that there’s a distinct drop in wrinting quality whenever Chibnall takes over (aside from Rosa, but he only co-wrote that). I guess a few of his episodes were okay, but a disproportionate amount were bad. Oh and why does he feel the need to shove in forty different guest characters?
The Doctor being the Timeless Child is dumb and always will be. The Timeless Child as a whole is not, but no matter how you slice it, The Timeless Children is a bad episode directly after two really good ones.
If you think people just hate Chibnall Who because the Doctor is a woman or “SJW propaganda” you haven’t been paying attention to the actual criticisms. Yes, those people exist, but they’re in the minority. And yes, it is pathetic when people do five hour essays on why they hate a thing. I don’t endorse that. There is legit criticism to be made.
Oh so no showrunner or Doctor is conducive to a good 60th? My point wasn’t that Chibnall and Whittaker would give us a good 60th, just that they’d give us any 60th at all. I hope they have showrunner and Doctor lined up for 2033, but even then it’ll be super weird having an anniversary special in their first year.
It’s been announced Chris Chibnall and Jodie Whittaker will be stepping down from the show in 2022. There will a single be a six part story for S13 and three specials at some point between then and the end of 2022. The 60th is royally screwed.
I know, I’ve heard the story.
I don’t think he was thinking of Sequels at the time.
There’s not really that much of a difference between American and Canadian society, although I would say American Christianity is more typically puritanical than Canadian Christianity, which is where I thought your assumptions were coming from.
I’m atheist. As far as I can tell most people here my age are non-religious.
Oh and this is what you sound like, Ric_Olie2.
Once you see the resemblance between the names Sifo-Dyas and Sidious, you just can’t unsee them. It was definitely intentional. They were clearly meant to be one and the same at some stage in development.
Using Snoke instead is a juicy idea. Still think Dooku works best, but who knows.
Rename Maz Kanata to Miss Canada.
Digitally replace Mace Windu’s clothes and have him wear a maid suit through the entire prequel trilogy. Be sure to give no explanation for why he’s wearing it.
Is his voiced UwUfied?
I just held a funeral for an old hobby of mine. Moved the last remaining displays into storage, aside from two I don’t know where to put. This had been a long time coming, as I’d hung up the towel ages ago. It’s really hard because I didn’t do this because I wanted to, I did it because it was for the best.
LEGO is just too expensive. Do drugs instead. /s
It especially hurts because it felt like my last link to the physical world. I now feel truly detached from it. Sorta like being enlightened but in a bad way. I feel like everything is just this other. It’s not real. It’s been making my life miserable for years. I want to reconnect with the world.
