You’re all pulling a Spuffy in this thread.

I miss Spuffure.

Why does so many people not like Bodhi? I though he was one of the more identifiable of the characters. He has much more character development than say, Chirrut (which has basically none), and even Baze.

Out of all the characters, I definitely think Bodhi was the most developed. He had the clearest character arc; an Imperial defector who finds new life in the Rebellion and eventually gives his life for the cause. Baze also had an arc, but it was more of a sudden turning point than an arc that was subtly built up over the course of the movie. I got the impression that they were supposed to be secondary characters, and that Jyn and Cassian were the real protagonists, but at the end of the day I liked Bodhi, Chirrut and Baze a lot more than either Jyn or Cassian.

There’s a Rogue One Spoilers thread in General SW Discussion, you should probably post your review over there and delete this.

Watch the end of this video;

I’ll PM you to make it easy 😉

He wouldn’t have made it. Jyn and the gang barely made it, and they were all able-bodied.

If they’re being sent out; I’d love an invite, too.

I’ve been passively keeping an eye on this for a while, but haven’t had the time to sit down and watch them until now. Where can I watch these? I checked on MySpleen, but couldn’t find them.

Just found this in my recommended videos;

I really liked “Hope”. It reminds me a lot of “Anakin’s Dark Deeds”.

I thought Cassian was even less interesting than Jyn. Baze n’ Chirrut are where it’s at.

Agreed.

Harmy’s review

Blade Runner 2049 Trailer

Looks awesome. Since Harrison Ford is old, is that confirmation that he isn’t a replicant?

I loved the movie, just loved it. One thing I might change is the dialogue between the director and Vader on Mustafar. I would simply cut vader’s line about chocking on one’s ambitions, (he’s a sith for Chrissakes! Ambition is all he knows.)

I hated that line because Darth Vader does not use one-liners. But I don’t understand your point about him being a Sith.

And I hate the idea of putting anything more from ROTS in.

“I find your lack of faith disturbing.”

As I previously corrected myself, he does not use cheesy one-liners.

Anakin does, though.

Anakin is not Vader. It’s quite obvious they are two completely different characters that have zero in common with each other.

Exactly, and some see that as a problem.

Anakin does, though. Now that can either be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you want the prequels to fit into the universe. There’s plenty of people that want to ignore the prequels and treat the two trilogies as separate, so anything that makes Vader more like Anakin might be annoying or even sacrilegious.

I’ve gotta see this movie again, and soon.

I’m really impressed with Giacchino’s soundtrack;

I hated the stupid throwaway cameos (R2, 3PO, Dr Evazan), it felt worse for breaking immersion than even the CGI added to Mos Eisley in ANH.

I think it made sense for R2 and 3PO to be there.

Was that lava planet Mustafar or Sullust?

Vader’s one-liner reminded me of his killing spree of the Separatist leaders in the ROTS novelization.

Absolutely!

“Lord Sidious promised us a handsome reward!”

“I am your reward. You don’t find me handsome?”

Chopper from Rebels?

Also, for some reason I welled up when Jimmy Smits was talking with Mon Mothma about “recruiting the jedi that served you in the Clone Wars”. Something just clicked for me right there. Like I could finally accept that the original six films, while half terrible, may really have taken place in the same universe after all.

Same here. I’ve always felt that there was a disconnect between the Prequels and the OT, but something about this movie helped to smooth that over. Maybe it had something to do with Saw Gerrera. I don’t want to get too political here, but when the Rebels attacked that convoy on Jedha my mind immediately jumped to the Taliban. I thought back to the Onderon arc in TCW, and how the Republic armed those rebels to fight the CIS, only for Saw to turn those arms back on the Empire. I’m convinced this was done on purpose as a reference to the Mujahideen.

I think merging a lot of scenes in the movie especially in the beginning would make the movie flow better. Everything leading up to Yavin seemed kind of disorienting and messy to me.

If maybe there was a way to restore his blue eyes, that would be kinda neat to see.

I know what you mean.

maybe something like this;

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think these edits are near the quality of other options avaible. It’s not even that it’s a bad edit. It is done relatively well, with great redubs and smart cuts. It really has no problems and truly does improve upon the commercial blu-rays that someone might view instead. It’s just a little frustrating to see edits like these get so much more spotlight than other fanedits that I feel are far superior. I really respect people like the Collider crew and it makes me so angry to see them rave about such mediocre edits. If only I could show them Hal9000’s trilogy with Adywans A New Hope Revisited. Edits like these do so much more. Like the following:

-Rescore scenes
-Masterfully reinsert entire subplots
-Restructure a films story
-Redefine how we view characters
-Brand new special effects
-Attempt to modify the tone of the film

These type of edits have clear goals, and attempt to achieve them as best as possible. And it takes these hardworking people YEARS of work. YEARS! After they finish, they are left with an amazing finished product that deserves to be shown to all Star Wars fans. That is precisely the reason that these type of YouTube edits frustrate the hell out of a fan like myself.

I apologize for the rant.

The Anti-Cheese edits just have a different goal in mind. They were made–as the title suggests–to cut out the cheesiness, not to drastically change anything.

Actually there are quite a lot of things that are worse than wet socks.
