just enjoy the movies for what they are.

What a radical idea.

This clearly shows the colour scheme of Boba Fett. Coincidence? I think not.

Also you can see the Aurabesh on his control panel. I think it reads “alarm clock”.

Because it’s the PT, whole scenes were cobbled together in post production.

ALOL

A black hole is a collapsed star.

Your thoughts betray you.

Yeah, but I was referring to the episodic films.

Well numbered content gives a sense of old and new, so I doubt they’ll want to do that much longer. In a mega-franchise like this things need to have real longevity. The moniker of “Episode…XYZ” has already been slowly phased out for the marketing. TFA and TLJ are widely know by their actual titles now.

Their movie and TV plans for at least 6 more years are all laid out.

How do you figure?

Say a couple for Resistance, a couple between Game of Thrones guys and Favreau, and in the background there’s time for the trilogy that Rian Johnson recently said he’s still currently writing. The Star Wars Story ideas are shelved right now of course, otherwise it would be 8-10 years.

That is a good sequence. And not a CGI creature in sight.

No dialogue in the script either.

I’ll be darned.

I keep seeing things that suggest the front of ship is for cargo… but in ROTJ isn’t that the torpedo launcher?

Really? This guy? I don’t see how he even even barely resembles Gunray. The voice is wrong, the intonations are completely different, and Gunray actually does the grammar properly whereas Chan skips entire words.

LoL…I realize that. That’s why I said a “really bad” attempt of the character. My point is that Gunray sounds very cliched as an Asian speaking English.

He sounds like a bad English dub from a 1960s Toho movie.

If he is they’d have to keep him unnamed, as a fan service inclusion only. Otherwise it needs exposition, which leads to cringe etc etc. and then the point of casting a known actor is lost entirely. See also: endless TLJ pre release speculation.

People not being brave enough to tell George things aren’t quite right sums up the whole PT.

Star Wars 9 Adds Dominic Monaghan To Its Cast

Awesome! I’ve always been a fan of Monaghan; he was great in LOTR and Lost.

Forest coloured ponchos? What a rehash!

But neither Fake-Tarkin or Jar-Jar were the first rough attempts at a ground breaking idea that paved the way etc. They’re both just expensive failures by people that should know better.

The theory that Qui-Gon is the only Jedi Anakin ever saw as a “truly good man” is a nice theory, but ultimately just that - a theory. There’s evidence to support it, but at the end of the day nothing like that is ever clearly (or even subtly) communicated in the films.

The entire character of Qui-Gon is utterly wasted since nothing results from his death. If Obi-Wan was reckless in TPM and it caused him to become more stoic, then that would be a character thing. If he was a figure that Anakin looked up to and Obi-Wan always failed to match him as a teacher then that would be a character thing. But for any of that to work you have to actually write characters.

If the goal was to create a grand political drama full of behind the scenes manoeuvring and sinister goings on… then they failed. If the goal was to create another three Star Wars films about action, adventure and heroism… then they also failed. One of the biggest problems is all of this should have been re-drafted and re-fined over and over to get it just right, but instead it’s a botched kitchen sink effort with too much all at once. What is it George says in the DVD extras “oh they’re building sets, I better start writing the script”. Haha yeah no kidding.

Can suspect disbelief for the five seconds we see Leia’s face, honestly. All good.

If they spend millions of dollars on it and you still have to suspend your disbelief then something its wrong. Everyone needs that little voice that says “maybe we shouldn’t”. Honestly I’m shocked that it was even done this way when the fighter pilots were just cut from existing footage, that would have been much better.

Funny you mention Leia’s movement cause she was a real actress under the CG face. (Unless you meant facial movement.)

That’s the problem with both of the characters in RO to be honest. Putting someone else’s face over the bone structure of another actor.
