ROTS has one and only one good sequence: the one where everyone shuts up and all you hear is the music as Anakin and Padme get all weepy. That’s it. That’s all. The rest of ROTS takes the franchise out back, puts a bullet in its head, and leaves it for dead.
I honestly don’t care if this is spoiled for me. Not sure why, but I don’t.
I don’t care either. The ST joins TCW in the realm of interesting but essentially inconsequential possible worlds which, to me, aren’t part of the “real” SW Universe.
I hope the next two sequels come out all right, but I have no real emotional investment in The Adventures of Rey Random to speak of, so I remain an apathetic sumbitch.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out
Is this your catchphrase or something?
*sigh*
It’s getting so I can’t tell these parent/daughter companies apart anymore. 😉
I think even a temp ban was a bit much, but whatever.
Wait, it’s a two-parter? And the second part won’t be available on regular TV?
Sometimes I think Paramount wants to fail.
Of course they aren’t terrible. They’re just terrible compared to the originals.
Even compared to the originals, they’re not that bad. ANH is great, ESB is okay, and RotJ has some glaring issues, but is otherwise enjoyable. TPM is really fun (save for some bits in the middle (mainly Coruscant)), AotC is a slog (the only SW movie I might say is genuinely bad), and RotS is a freaking masterpiece. Overall, I don’t see any overall difference in quality between the trilogies.
I see Warb got banned.
He was getting rather testy in the Electric Boogaloo thread, but did he really say anything warranting a ban?
When I still watched regular TV, I got only one channel which aired episodes of TOS. All episodes were cropped/stretched to 16:9, with Chinese/Japanese subtitles appearing every time a sign showed up on-screen (and this was a regular English-language channel).
Stations can be weird.
I go back and forth on the topic of crystals. Right now, I’m fine with them. I don’t like how they’re presented in the new canon, but I’m fine with the concept.
“Just the pussy I’ve been looking for.”
Looks like an intro to one of those medical dramas, not a Trek series.
Yeah. It’d have to involve Cenobites to be the first most disgusting.
Maybe this too, but I don’t even know what it means.
So it’s a perfect encapsulation of the ethos of Hollywood?
Now I’m even prouder of myself.
No, no, no… He’s got four lightsabers, silly.
(if that’s not what’s happening there, I have no idea what is)
He’s firing a blaster in rapid succession.
Does anyone in the world actually care about the Avatar sequel? The opinions of everyone I know range from “huh?” To “meh.”
I don’t even care about Avatar. It’s a movie I’m proud to say I haven’t seen and will never see.
Upon first impression, I thought this painting
was of a Rodian chopping a droid up with a lightsaber.
The NJO is the SW equivalent of Crisis on Infinite Earths. The villains suck, lots of characters die for nothing, and it only leads to worse storylines down the road.
So acquired it doesn’t come naturally.
Just like Trump to be late to the game.
Added the Coen bros. to my list.
Yeah. It’d have to involve Cenobites to be the first most disgusting.
