Its the same level of bad as bringing up your blu-ray collection every post.

Roger that.

Yes, for there is truly nothing more ridiculous in this world and in this franchise than putting Hulk in a Thor movie.

There are at least a couple ROTJ threads that might be a good idea to index, as that film tends to spark a lot of discussion (and extraneous threads among noobs).

Yes, Skittles are fine but M&M’s are better.

Wrong

Lemon and orange are easily the worst of the bunch but they are still necessary for the whole package.

No one who’d actually watched Twin Peaks would ever say that.

Disagree.

Oh was he? Sorry I didn’t know that, that is terrible.

I think he’s getting him confused with Kevin Spacey.

What kills me the most about Christmas music is the constant non-stop air play of the same 10 songs…argh!

There are way more than 10 Christmas songs, especially if you add in the religious Christmas music.

My wife dislikes most non-religious Christmas music. Especially ones that celebrate the winter season in general or the buying of gifts.

I tend to dislike those less (unless they’re about Santa).

Exception is the Little Drummer Boy. Gotta admit that’s a winner.

As time goes on and the novelty wears off, Rogue One is starting to slip a little for me. For whatever reason, it’s the (non-PT) film I find myself popping in the least frequently. I still like it a lot, it just doesn’t scratch my SW itch as well as the others do. I guess it might be the characters. Jyn and Cassian are nowhere near as fun to spend time with as Luke, Han and Leia or Rey, Finn and Poe.

Current ranking:

SW = ESB > TFA > ROTJ > R1 > TPM > AOTC = ROTS.

I still haven’t even bought it. I know I will at some point (probably soon), but that does say something.

I’m so tired of Christmas music that I’m now tired of complaining about Christmas music.

not to be confused with this http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Discussion-Thread-for-The-Invisible-Thread/id/11496

I like it

TV special. TV movie. It’s all semantics.

TV special =/= Theatrical film

It’s a TV special. And it’s a horrendous piece of shit TV special at that.

As much as I dislike posts like that, DE has a point. You don’t have to hate Star Wars to agree.

Then why can’t all the times Kylo isn’t being unquestionably evil just be thrown under “Ben Solo?” Why couldn’t someone say; “it wasn’t Kylo feeling the call of the light side, that was Ben Solo momentarily showing through. Kylo is 100% evil.”

Why do we need to stick to this silly idea of dichotomous personalities anyway? Clearly the films are looking to do something more interesting.

I loved when Kylo said “Your son is gone,” and you could tell he was putting on, saying it to prove it to himself as well as Han. He’s trying to play into that classic Vader dichotomy but clearly doesn’t fit. I’d much rather have this than the split personality.

Plot similarities don’t matter to me, the other stuff is far more important. When it comes to character, I prefer going for something new.

Kylo Ren’s not boring enough!

WTF Kevin Spacey?

Yeah, seriously.

That wasn’t a surprise to me. Oddly enough I heard a similar story secondhand from a friend a few years back.

Was your friend Anthony Rapp?

I know you’re joking but no. And it wasn’t my friend’s story, it came from a friend of my friend.

I’m leaving this place because every post made by oojason since he became a mod pisses me the fuck off and has made this site into a watered down version of what it was. I understand not being able to actually insult people, but you can’t even pretend to insult people as a joke anymore. What the fuck? This place used to be fun. I’ll possibly still stay in touch with people I have pm threads with. Unless of course I get banned for daring to be unhappy with something Jason said and can’t access pms. Toodles.

you ok my friend?

Sorry, didn’t know the rule where to have an emotionally satisfying story, you must know every characters’ parents. Thanks for the heads up, will not make this mistake again.

No one called it ANH until we were knee-deep into the PT.

Exactly and by then it was all SE. Therefore SW=great, ANH=ehhh…

DominicCobb said:

Frank’s point remains. Star Wars refers to the original film. ANH refers to the altered versions, most of which are shit.

Not really. All ANH versions of the film, including the SE at one point, were referred to as Star Wars.

Well honestly this kinda proves Frank’s point more, because no one really called it ANH until the PT and the SEs.
