You do realize Fuel has been mentioned visually in Star Wars and in actual dialogue in The Phantom Menace right?
I’ll be the first to say that the movie didn’t really do it for me but nitpicks are a bit too much at times.
I’d buy a computer that can open Chrome while Spotify is playing without crashing one of the two (if not both).
I’m no one.

Yes, I was talking about not having hard subs in English.

Another thing is that even though both TLJ and TESB are the low points, try to compare the endings. TESB’s ending still seems more hopeful, even if only visually due to the room of the final scene being white and Luke and Leia wearing white, while looking at a beautiful space-y thing and awaiting for another adventure to save his friends.
One may argue that TLJ’s ending is even more hopeful due to the whole message that Luke was trying to pass on, and then broom boy showing the rebellion spreading, yadda yadda yadda, but in the end, for the characters it seems much more hopeless than TESB’s. Compare Luke’s last line spoken in TESB to Rey’s in TLJ.
“I’ll meet you at the rendezvous point in Tatooine. Chewie, I’ll be waiting for your signal. […]”
“How do we build a rebellion from this?”Pay attention to their faces, to everything. Rey’s basically hopeless, holding a destroyed lightsaber in her hands, not knowing what to do. While Luke is hopeful, determined determined to rescue his friend, it’s under his control. And he’s fixing his hand, putting that behind him.
Obviously they’re different movies with different characters in different circumstances, but it’s just to show that you don’t have to apparently destroy all of the character’s “hopefulness” and will in order to put them in their low point.
Except Leia responds, which changes Rey’s expression. The movie doesn’t just end after Rey’s line.
Yes, but I didn’t get the feeling that Leia was very sure of herself and of the Resistance at that point. I got the idea of a mom that knows that they’re screwed but is trying to comfort a hopeless child. (And herself)
So it didn’t really convince me. But it’s not a problem I have with the movie, just an observation.

I’d say my favorite moment in the Star Wars saga is from when the score comes back for Luke’s attempt at the trench run until the very end of the movie. I always get the chills during “use the force, Luke” and when the Death Star blows up.
I am sorry for your loss chev. I hope he’s in a better place.
po·lit·i·cal cor·rect·ness
noun
the avoidance, often considered as taken to extremes, of forms of expression or action that are perceived to exclude, marginalize, or insult groups of people who are socially disadvantaged or discriminated against.
A movie being a blockbuster is different from a movie being politically correct, I thought that was pretty obvious.
What is Disney again?
I gave up
I might go for it
What the hell does that have to do with political correctness?
Why the hell are you asking Ronster to explain anything?
Good point. Question withdrawn.
This was entertaining.
This is a nice thread.
I mean, it has been a while
Aren’t South and North Korea going to enter together in the opening ceremony or something like that, or represent the same country in one of the sports? I might’ve read that somewhere.
Coming from a non-English speaking country I’m all in for the soft subs. My dad watched Star Wars in Italy in 1977 and later at some point in the 1980’s in Brazil, with my mom, and according to him there were no hard subs. He could be wrong though. When I was watching v2.7 with him last year the subtitles bothered him a little bit, since he doesn’t speak English and it’s basically more text on the screen, nothing more than useless visual information, almost som sort of pollution.
If you want the more Blu-Ray-y approach, I’d say go for the soft subs. But if the goal is still to be as true as you possibly can to the (American) theatrical version, then hard subs it is.
I assume the Death Star was following a “trail” left by the Millennium Falcon, instead of just tracking them, making them have to take the exact same route.
Another thing is that the Millenium Falcon also came out of hyperspace on the other side of the planet, which could lead one to believe that it was the only way possible to get to the system.
I actually don’t think Garfield was that awful as Spider-Man, but his Peter was so bad that his Spidey got affected by it.
Oh. I’m so so sorry possessed. Don’t worry, just take care of yourself and personal life should always come first. Prioritize yourself. I really truly hope you’re doing fine and that everything will sort itself out for you. I’m here hoping for your best. Sorry I can’t do more, but I really hope everything turns out okay for you. Have a good one mate.
Yay! Glad you’re back on this snooker!
