And don’t get me started on the episode wasted on watching the young couple Baroque dancing for 20 minutes.
It was in fact 82 seconds
Make Cassian fat and use AI to add lines supporting an implied character arc where he loses weight. For the Rebellion.
Here’s a mockup
You could have ignored their posts, but didn’t. Maybe you can find some understanding for their perspective there?
All three sequel trilogy movies definitely use the same recording. This video has TFA’s audio playing in the left ear, TLJ and then TROS’s audio in the right ear, if you have headphones. I thought TROS might have used a different recording but this is definitely the same one.
I agree that it sounds kind of low energy, it sounds kind of like a midi to me.
They seem to have been doing an anniversary re-release every year since Return of the Jedi’s 40th in 2023, and the number doesn’t actually matter. At least they did Revenge of the Sith and not The Force Awakens.
Sounds like it could have been a cool project
Sounds like a new can of worms has been opened with these statements.
Well we haven’t had “From a certain point of view” applied to a whole movie yet…
Maybe this is better than “Here, we hired some schmuck to tell you, now and forever, how the Jedi REALLY got started!”
That would be really weird if they developed independently
That whole video is awesome
That’s certainly true.
What untapped potential do you think they have? Disney seems to be going in the direction that Rey is going to be doing all the same stuff Luke did after Return of the Jedi. I was going to say the same thing Hal said, except I don’t think there even can be an answer to those questions because they have no basis in her character in the ST. They could make something up for what Rey brings to the table that Luke couldn’t, but any answer would feel really cynical to me.
I realize I’m poo-pooing on something I’ve already checked out on anyway, but what potential do you see in this? I’m curious. Or is it just that you think they should have a shot at it?
4-6 were made entirely separate from 1-3, 1-3 builds off of 4-6. But post-TRoS necessarily has to build off of TRoS, which really doesn’t lay any groundwork for anything worthwhile.
In your opinion, was Star Wars better off under George Lucas or Disney?
Hard to come up with an answer to this one
Not fixed 😦
Can someone explain why everyone thinks Mace is this badass lightsaber duelist. He went out in a very weak way. Blown out a window due to unlimited power. After Anakin chopped his hand off.
To be fair the power was unlimited
If it derailed in 1983, where was the rail originally headed? Star Wars has always taken older successful ideas and repackaged them into highly commercialized blockbusters, and its own success eventually eclipsed its inspirations. I think Star Wars was always going to end up like this and I agree with JadedSkywalker that we need fresh IP.
G&G Fan, can you give a clip of the matte painting being used in the movie?
Dang. That’s a shame that you feel that way. What changed your mind on this AU specifically?
“Do you want to know why I keep a rabid cur in such a place of power? Because weakness, properly manipulated can be a sharp tool.”
I don’t think the movie sold me on this. Also, Hux is still in the room when he says this lol
Then it’s probably just DNR, which would have been introduced in 2004. It would be worth checking the new Disney versions from 2019 to see if it’s in there (it shouldn’t be if it’s DNR, or should present itself differently since it’s a new scan). I’d do it but I no longer have Disney+ and I don’t have those Blu Rays.
It might be DNR from 2004. Did you rip a Blu Ray to get this or did you do something like a web rip? Are you using the 2011 versions or the new Disney ones from 2019?
I wondered at the time why this moment bugged me, and it’s because Holdo was giving off Dolores Umbridge vibes.
It’s funny that you say that, when I saw The Last Jedi for the first time in 2017, my friend leaned over during this scene and said “This is Umbridge”. I wonder if that made Holdo easier to swallow for me.
I don’t think you have to invoke Hanlon’s razor for the ST. For example, Luke is now a failure whose accomplishments are undone and who unleashes evil onto the galaxy, whose only redemption is that the fake image people have of him might eventually lead to other people cleaning up his mess. I don’t think it’s malicious, because I and a lot of other people thought it was a compelling story and gave Luke some of his best character moments in the saga, but at the same time, he didn’t accidentally stumble into subverting Luke’s entire purpose in the story, and couldn’t have naively thought it would be received well by everybody.
IMO, it’s a symptom of the ST being glorified fanfiction. Rian Johnson is a fan who wrote what he thought was a good story with little input from the original creator of the series, and TLJ would probably fit better if it was a spinoff or AU than as the canonical ending of Luke Skywalker’s story.
Nope actually that line is awesome. So is the kill the past one from Kylo Ren.
I’m not a fan of anything Holdo says in this scene
Blazing hot take I know
I think it’s hardly an insult to say Star Wars dialog sounds like it was written by George Lucas, even if his dialog wasn’t great.
If it counts, it bugs me that when BB8 is beeping right before Poe says “Happy beeps”, it’s supposed to be “I have a bad feeling about this”.
