LEGENDS WAS THE BEST!!!
LEGENDS WAS THE BEST!!!
Last Jedi retailer exclusive packaging for BD (and 4k!) leaks. Hopefully the standard release just has theatrical release art as with TFA and RO.

He says don’t join verbatim in the hangar after the betrayal.
Don’t join a cause. It’s every man for himself.
Star Wars’s is certainly the least offensive. But it’s still just a stack of disembodied heads. The original Star Wars artwork was gorgeous (both theatrical posters). The colors on the ROTJ SE poster are downright gross. The Emperor looks like shit on the TESB poster.

Because either Rey’s parents were on that departing ship or they’re dead and buried on Jakku. It can’t be both.
And Kylo can’t be trusted.I already asked this, but are we really sure we see Rey’s parents leave in that ship? Maybe it was just a random ship and Rey imagined her parents were in there, because that would make it easier for her.
Given Rey’s response to Ben, it’s clear that Rey has maintained a myth about her parents in her mind. Why can’t she have manufactured a memory? Not that unrealistic. Indeed, there are still Star Wars fans who maintain that Luke’s first go at the grappling hook missed when SW first hit theaters.
In regards to the debate about how Luke died: On second viewing, it stood out that, during their first telepathy session, Ren says to Ray something along the lines of, “you’re obviously not doing this; the effort would kill you.”
SW/Empire
TLJ
TFA/ROTJ
After a second viewing of TLJ, this ranking confidently stands.
When I talk to my 14yo nephew about the Star Wars movies, he’s not really that big a fan and has a hard time remembering which Episode number goes by which subtitle. At one point, he asked me why I don’t just call them by their episode numbers, and I said that it wasn’t until the prequels came out that their numbers even were on the box or that Star Wars was marketed as A New Hope.
Then I showed him images of OT posters and VHS boxes to prove my point.
God those were awful posters.
To me it sounds weird to call it “Star Wars”. The movie should have its own name to distinguish itself from the franchise as a whole.
It does…
Star Wars’ sequel is The Empire Strikes Back whose sequel is Return of the Jedi etc.
lightsabers beat wands every time.
So would a Colt .45
Why can’t Snoke just be a powerful guy who hid in the shadows and took advantage of a power vacuum when the Emperor and Vader were killed?
There’s a thread for that show.
JEDIT: Wait, someone please tell me they didn’t do it in more than one show.
They did it in more than one show.
What the heck is a binary load lifter?
The load is either lifted or it isn’t.
Only a Sith speaks in absolutes.
I’m going to see it for the second time next week. Looking forward to watching it for all the little details now that I know the story.
OT Jedi > PT Jedi
They could’ve gone the Blofeld in From Russia With Love and Thunderball route and not shown his face. Only have him looking out the window, had an impersonator do the voice.
I do really like theatrical RotS. Only prequel movie I don’t watch fan edited. I watch an extended edition.
How is an extended edition not a fan edit?
When FA came out their was some controversy in making the originals completly pointless.
I don’t know what this means.
Neat! I received that art book as a gift last Christmas. It is interesting abd beautiful.
[pigmen gurgle sounds]
So is this erotic asphyxiation, or just them getting pushed around?
The context, given the thread
Can Disney control ticket prices?
Once they buy Regal, Cinemark, and AMC.
This:
was totally unnecessary and was only added to sell toys.
And - I suspect - one will be on my desk at work before long. 😃 I have no idea why those don’t bother me. Particularly since the Ewoks made me want to get up and walk out of the theater in 1983.
Maybe because porgs are in the movie for like 30 seconds and don’t kill any stormtroopers?
