V.I.N.Cent

I enjoyed it - overall the series was flawed, a little shallow in places and with too much filler. Yet also had some pretty great episodes too, and a shame we didn’t quite get to see the characters evolve and really become a part of the actual Resistance.

I do hope we some of these characters again in other Star Wars animated content, and also The Colossus too 😃
 

This review sort of sums up how I feel on the show overall… (with spoilers for the last episode)

This video nails how I feel about TLJ now:

Revisiting the Last Jedi (and why it is alright)

Like me the guy disliked the film, but has kind of come around to liking many elements of it, and feels there’s a great film at its core. The guy goes through what he feels are the strong, and weaker elements of the film in a pretty balanced manner.

I will never be convinced that TLJ is a good film, when it has terrible writing. The main arc makes no sense, its sub plots are redundant and devoid of character development. Every character in the move ends exactly where they left of in TFA.

That’s okay and a reasonable opinion - though coming from someone who posted…

“In fact i would say TLJ fans are the ones who just use racism and sexism as a card against people who have genuine criticism of the movie. Its quite toxic really, and sad that Rian Johnson fans dont have any issues in thrashing people and the franchise to protect the vision of one dude.”

I’ll take your opinion with a pinch of salt - especially when you ‘got pulled up for it’ and then posted…

“Im sorry to hear there was indeed a lot of hate and racism thrown into the mix…”

So yes, you throw racism into the mix yourself, then claim ‘sorry to hear that’ when it occurs…
 

Then get into a strop some people don’t want to watch a 2-hour video by MauLer titled ‘An Ubridled Rage’, with self-descriptions of it as a ‘video ranting about a crappy movie’ - or ‘Disney’s failure is now complete’.

A quick look through your posts indicates you are just here to bash on the Sequels - not much else on Star Wars or any love or enjoyment of it so far.

Fair enough - keep on bashing on them, and casually throwing claims of racism around too, but don’t expect many to engage with you if this is all you’re going to post on here (well, apart from the others that also like to bash on them too 😉)

Oh, I thought this may be an interesting thread on TPM itself. Though going on posts made in here by the OP wants to bash on other Star Wars films to attempt to make TPM seem better? So no thanks.

The Phantom Menace on VCD was pretty good for the time - I still have both my old imports of it somewhere.

‘The History of Star Wars Posters’ article at https://filmschoolrejects.com/star-wars-the-posters-14ad09654325 is well worth a read and look through.

Awesome set, Fated-Dualist 😃
 

Mine would be the 1989 Technidisc laserdiscs of the OT, I didn’t even have a laserdisc player and got gifted the set of discs from an old friend. I must have just looked at the packaging of them for months on end as I saved up for a player (I never did get one) - and instead just took them around to a friend who had the CLD 97 to watch them on - a lot!

(I think it was a CLD97? The letters and numbers all get jumbled up these days!)

I’ve decided to not let some annoying idiots ruin my enjoyment of Star Wars, or my time on here, and so I’m back on here posting away 😃
 

^ by J.J. LendL - http://jjlendl.com (has some amazing posters for Trek and many other shows)

by By RedHeadJedi (he (she?) does some awesome plex media style posters for Star Wars and many other series and films too!)

I don’t know about Underworld 10 but there used to be templates for all kinds of slightly different covers on previous versions?

I think there are also some Criterion sized template covers on google images too which may come in handy too?

Many little things…

Rey’s new saber being the top of her old staff from The Force Awakens.
That Kylo points in the same manner as his dad when he wants someone to be quiet! (Han to C3PO usually!)
Rey referring to Leia as ‘Master’ - and just the fact that Leia was now training Rey.
Chewie’s emotional greieving scene upon finding out Leia had passed, that ‘got’ me.
Luke’s final lesson to Rey on Ach-To - the reminder that confronting fear is the destiny of a Jedi (a message that resonates foreveryone in today’s political climate, or where people just accept things they know to be wrong or they don’t agree with).
C3PO’s humor - it was both funny and on the ‘mark’.
 

Jedit: a few more…

Rey now piloting an X-Wing instead of dreaming of piloting of one whilst wearing the helmet back on Jakku in TFA.
Luke reaching out to lift his X-Wing was just like he did in Empire on Dagobah.
Ben’s shrug - just like his dad.
Kylo’s ‘be quiet’ gesture - again, just like his dad.
Kylo and Han’s conversation.
Ben holding Rey like Han held Leia in ROTJ when she was injured.

I love the new sections, especially having an Original Trilogy specific forum. But man, I got a take a break for a while - so much negativity and toxicity around of late. I hope to be back soon when it dials back a bit.

Thank you for your efforts mods, and other many helpful people on here too. Happy Holidays.

Bump.

It is an old thread, but it checks out.
 

Amazing that so many hate Star Wars and want everyone else to know about it - again and again and again - and far past any genuine criticism. Some haven’t even seen some of the new films and series!

I’m out of here for a while. I hope that those you who DO enjoy the films and series continue to do so, and the people who have stated their genuince criticisms or problems do so too.

As for the toxic and negative people looking to spread thier agandas of hate everywhere… I hope they find somewhere else to post, and soon.

‘A brand new decade. A brand new game. LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga arrives 2020!’

I’ve loved all the Star Wars LEGO games - even the Prequel Trilogy game was an entertaining game to play, back in 2005!:-

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lego_Star_Wars#Video_games

… and have been a little disappointed we have not seen more games for the recent Star Wars releases.

I’m very happy this one is coming out soon, and it looks a lot of fun, as ever 😃

Based on this GameFAQs link it seems the game will be available for PC, Nintendo Switch, PS4 and Xbox One.
