Maybe subtitle HansiG, so that it’s all just one big misunderstanding.

That sounds so much more interesting on paper.

So you’re saying you are trolling, good, we’re making progress here.

They could create a fem 005 or a homosexual 0069 and bring in 007 as a supporting character, as Marvel brings other characters to support the individual hero films. A fem 00 might work if done well. Jolie and Johannsen have paved the way. I doubt I’d see a homosexual 00 if it’s primarily a pandering, identity politics gimmick. It would have to have VERY much to recommend it otherwise.
A homosexual Bond or Captain America would be a homo-militant attack on iconic figures of British and American masculinity.
I’m still recovering from being told we MUST believe allowing every pervy bi-sexual cross-dresser to prance into any Girl’s Locker Room is the most glorious idea ever conceived, or else we’re pure evil and deserve to SUFFER AND DIE!!!

What, a post from you with normal formatting?

 I would not watch a black Bond on principle. Again, there is JUST NO WAY to divorce this kind of thing from the element of "Yyyyyeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhh!!! Now we're really sticking it to whitey!!!!". Why should I pay big money for that?
 Again, they could easily create a 009 and bring in 007 to support. Again, it would have to offer VERY much more than an identity politics gimmick before I'd spend my money on it.

Aaaaand where back to unreadable.

Since Frink was called out for writing in all caps, isn’t this formatting a bannable offense now?

I’m just curious if you enjoy the twist being preserved or the removal of episode 1 more?

Frank your Majesty said:

Also, cutting Episode 1 is important because you reduce the time of suffering through the prequels by 2 hours.

Does that answer your question? Personally I would recommend you to try Super Machete order, where you cut Clones, too. But my absolute favorite order is Mega Machete, you place the prequels between episodes 5 and 6 and then you remove them entirely.

My personal canon is actually three separate personal canons.

Canon 1: Star Wars, by itself (original theatrical, of course). This allows for things like Luke and Leia not being related, Vader not being Luke’s father, etc. I like this idea simply because it allows me to enjoy Star Wars as a standalone film with its own separate story. Whereas Empire and Return were explicitly as sequels, Star Wars was its own, independent movie.

Canon 2: The original trilogy in its unaltered state. I consider this trilogy to be its “own thing” in that I consider it to be a story that does and should exist separately from everything else.

Canon 3: The original trilogy in its unaltered state, plus any new Disney movies that might come out. I justify not including the Special Editions/prequels by assuming that the people working on the new movies have a love for the originals similar my own love, so their head canon probably involves the unaltered originals and not the Special Editions.

I like this.

Full Frink Order To Torture Sith?

That is technically correct. Etc., you know the rest.

Why not both? Becasue that’s exactly what Machete order means, while it does not only mean to put the prequels between 5 and 6.

Machete order was invented in 2011, while 4-5-1-2-3-6 dates back to 2009. Obviously, Machete order builds up on that and cuts TPM.

A real life machete has following properties: A long, sharp blade and a big handle. Properties of a knife: small blade and handle. Would you call a knife “Machete” or “Small Machete”? If you want a catchy name, call it Rister order, I’ve seen that one a lot.

To be fair, the OP said you had to keep at least one change.

Quick, someone write a PM to suspiciouscoffe and have him edit out the “at least” of the first post.

If you ever get an error like this one when visiting the page, just try to post something, you may end up with a quadruple post. I created 4 identical threads that way when I was reporting it, but the additional copies were eventually deleted.

I see you have a point here.

Just do it on purpose, noone will notice.

What do you want to say with this? The goal of Despecialized is to recreate the theatrical version, not to “fix” it. If Prowse was visible in theaters in 1980, he should be visible in Despecialized. Things like this make people think you’re trolling.
Or did you want to post this in Adywan’s Revisited thread?

I could call a bicycle an airplane because getting from A to B is more important than pedaling, but people would still give me strange looks.

Machete order is 4-5-2-3-6, if you want to refer to 4-5-1-2-3-6, you can’t say machete order, you can call it preserve-the-twist order or cap order or, like some apparently do, Rister order.

Also, cutting Episode 1 is important because you reduce the time of suffering through the prequels by 2 hours.

They are not all shit, only about 95% of them.

This. I like this about them. You can make fun of them. The scores are nice, too.

That’s my favorite order. Apart from Order 66 and the First Order. Haven’t decided on the Order of the Phoenix yet, but New Order is great, too.

Here we go again …

Despite its name, that’s not its purpose. The cutting of episode 1 is only secondary compared to the true purpose of machete order.

The point is not what it’s purpose is, but that the order 4-5-2-3-6 is called machete order and the order 4-5-1-2-3-6 is not. Words mean things.

In the late 90’s, I saw the Lego X-Wing in a magazine and even though I had no idea what a “Star Wars” was, I knew that this is the coolest thing ever. When I learned from my parents that it was from a movie and that this movie was eventually on TV, I was completely hooked up.

It isn’t an ending, it is a “to be continued” cheat.

Maybe because the story is to be continued? It would have been more of a cliffhanger if we didn’t see her finding Luke. Just because they have a map doesn’t mean that Luke is still on that planet, he could have left and when Rey arrives she only finds clues to his next location.

That’s not machete order, the point of machete order is to cut episode 1.
