Interview with Bill Hargreaves about building IG-88 and other props
Interview with Bill Hargreaves about building IG-88 and other props
Oh… there was already page 2 I get it. I take it back, yhwx moves like a sleepy Hutt.
I’ve said it before but Finn’s ship should have been damaged enough to actually start crashing, then Rose could dive in and save him at the last second. I don’t get why they went with what actually happened, it makes her into a loony.
Since you’re being so genial but in the wrong thread I’ll bite, you want to look up the Ultimate Introductory Guide.
Jedit: woah yhwx is quick off the draw
It doesn’t help that it looks like Jyn doesn’t hasn’t slept in a week and K2SO is permanently surprised.

Could it be Vader’s? Could it be the rest of Kylo’s?
It was apparently an ancient crystal he collected with other relics on the island. There was a “TLJ secrets” video on one of these threads a day or two ago.
oo kay?
Because one sucks slightly less than the other
Wait how was mine a spoiler lol
The so called Chinese Overlords were the ones who reduced Finn’s visibility in TFA marketing so they’re probably not going to be happy either way.
Huh.

Star Wars’s is certainly the least offensive. But it’s still just a stack of disembodied heads. The original Star Wars artwork was gorgeous (both theatrical posters). The colors on the ROTJ SE poster are downright gross. The Emperor looks like shit on the TESB poster.
They aren’t the best, but they are better than the later releases. I don’t get why they all have images from the wrong movie though, like the Emperor. Three parts of one poster?
Okay here’s something I am not sure has been asked before, but in TLJ does young Ben Solo use Anakin’s saber to block Luke? Is this ever mentioned elsewhere?

Day is a very different movie

That still sounds like a lot compared to the budget.
At the Golden Globes
“There’s a lot of talk, and I’d be happy to play him again, but I don’t know anything more than you do. There’s a lot of talk. But it’s just that… There is no plan. I love the new one. I saw it over Christmas, it was really, really beautiful.”

I don’t understand why those were changed on DVD with those really bad theatrical recreations, to match the prequels on DVD… which had also lost their theatrical artwork. Do they think it won’t sell without photoshopped crap on?
Because either Rey’s parents were on that departing ship or they’re dead and buried on Jakku. It can’t be both.
And Kylo can’t be trusted.I already asked this, but are we really sure we see Rey’s parents leave in that ship? Maybe it was just a random ship and Rey imagined her parents were in there, because that would make it easier for her.
Given Rey’s response to Ben, it’s clear that Rey has maintained a myth about her parents in her mind. Why can’t she have manufactured a memory? Not that unrealistic. Indeed, there are still Star Wars fans who maintain that Luke’s first go at the grappling hook missed when SW first hit theaters.
It’s not unreasonable to think that Rey ran off looking for her parents as a child, and she just assumed they were on one of the ships docked in Nima Outpost. Did she actually see them get onboard or is just a scene where she ran off some time after being dumped there?
There’s probably a thread there somewhere about it, whether it’s theatrical sound channel differences or later SE changes.
No I don’t mind comic relief in general but when it veers into cartoon physics like the coins or the AT-ST gag it’s too much. Overall I’m a lot more forgiving of this sort of thing compared to those who genuinely disliked the film though.
Mithrandir, those are excellent observations. And not only was TLJ constrained by TFA in unfortunate ways but TFA colors how TLJ is perceived. I think that is inevitable but it does make the the creator’s hand all the more visible and the similarities all the more glaring in TLJ. Like you, I can’t ignore that. There are the separate question of whether Johnson’s intent was always well executed and whether there weren’t some other better alternatives (albeit probably still not satisfying). I think those questions preoccupy most discussions and to many look like nitpicks or nostalgia but are actually referring back to more fundamental objections to the film.
There are also philosophical/ideological objections to TLJ as envisioned by Johnson, which you touched on previously. But that goes beyond whether the film is good or bad, as you noted. Objecting to the particular views expressed through TLJ they won’t be convincing to anyone who doesn’t already share the same point of view - and most people don’t really care!
The fact that there are now new spiritual discussions to have about Luke’s journey at all is the most interesting part of all this. For all the cringe BB8 slapstick moments there’s this whole other side to the story that I really enjoyed.
Everyone will do a 360.
