I somehow stumbled through most of that video when I was lazy in the morning... Not a fan of tired sayings, but this dude really is an idiot's idea of a smart person.

That's called a "Trump" nowadays.

This should have been left in. Explained so much about Luke's views on the Jedi in a much clearer way than his other rants, and in a very efficient use of time to boot.

Whatever the actual quality of these movies is, I certainly appreciate how they brought Carrie Fisher (RIP) and Mark Hamill back into the limelight

Reading all this, I'm surprised the movie was coherent at all. So much stuff removed and changed in post-production. At least Johnson, as writer-director, was still there to spearhead all of it.

This is legit better than the other lessons.

Shit, it's better than the rest of the movie. Why cut this scene? It all works.

Damn it, Rian! You were supposed to be the chosen one.

Hey Exodust, let me record myself calling you and making dad jokes so I can sell the video as Star Wars deleted scenes

This is a stunning tech demo. Part of the charm is the flawless audio presentation, for sure, but the visuals are amazing, esp. considering they're real time. It doesn't matter to me that it is going to be a beast of a machine, it's stunning nonetheless.

Grabbed TLJ at Costco today. Only saw it once in the theater, so looking forward to watching it again.

bluemax · « **Reply #3133 on:** March 28, 2018, 01:55:10 AM »

Seems like there were some better scenes with Luke/Rey that got cut but instead we got alien boob milk.

On the plus side that awful Kanto Blight chase scene was apparently even longer and more boring originally.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #3134 on:** March 28, 2018, 12:46:20 PM »

There were some great deleted scenes, particularly the "Caretaker party" and the extended duel between Finn and Phasma.

agrajag · « **Reply #3135 on:** April 08, 2018, 08:56:51 PM »

The acting feels really dry to me, both the Han actor and the Donald Glover guy ( not familiar with his work). Emilia Clarke is supposed to be Princess Leia? She's not supposed to know Han before ANH, pfffft. Damn Disney and their retcons.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #3136 on:** April 08, 2018, 09:18:38 PM »

Looks better than the previous trailer, and the space-western vibe mixed with a heist thriller could be fun enough. Not gonna get hyped up for it, but I'll be on opening weekend unless the reviews are just completely in the basement.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #3137 on:** April 08, 2018, 09:50:52 PM »

Rogue One is dry. That's a 9 alarm fire by comparison.

Not that I have any take on said quality of actual movie.

agrajag · « **Reply #3138 on:** April 08, 2018, 09:59:38 PM »

Maybe Rogue One was dry, but it's its own self-contained story. It didn't have actors reprising the roles of Han and Lando that were brilliantly done. We have something to compare them to. At least that's where I stand on this.

Svejk · « **Reply #3139 on:** April 09, 2018, 09:03:17 AM »

It's like Disney didn't even try with Han and Lando. Ubisoft AssCrud syndrome strikes Disney.

kingv · « **Reply #3140 on:** April 09, 2018, 09:09:05 AM »

I’m pretty sure Amelia Clarke’s character is not leia but some other chick.

She is such a terrible actress though. Dull as hell in game of thrones.

My wife and I watched Last Jedi again in the theater room Saturday night. It was much, MUCH better on second viewing.

Except for Canto Bight.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #3143 on:** April 09, 2018, 10:19:15 AM »

The lead in that Han movie is a charisma sink. How do they miss on that? Watching all those scenes just made me want a Lando movie instead.

Looks competently done though. But that's what Ron Howard does.

It's odd that I find Lando far more interesting/charismatic than Solo. I mean it's Solo's movie but I'm more interested in the Lando stuff.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #3147 on:** April 09, 2018, 01:05:12 PM »

Real talk: Lando was always cooler than Han.

To save time, roll them into one character

Why not a buddy movie?

He can't walk straight... and she can't drive straight! They're two of a kind and porgs of a feather! It's the derpest duo that's sweeping the nation!

Coming to theatres and or streaming this fall, Jar Jar and Rose take center stage in Star Wars: Mesa Hear No Evil, Shesa See No Evil

Cheebos & Roberts call it a hilarious romp for the ages! But you'll call it the direct to Blu-Ray hit that stole your heart!

It’s fine not to like Han, because it’s punching up, but not liksing Lando is punching down, so only racist pieces of shit like Bernie Sanders don’t like Lando.

bluemax · « **Reply #3154 on:** April 10, 2018, 01:01:15 AM »

The trailer made the movie look both better and worse.

Like, the plot seems okay enough, its almost ripped from that cancelled Star Wars game, but the "HEY THIS IS THE ORIGIN OF THAT THING IN THE OLD MOVIES" part is just so cringe. Star Wars movies just can't help but be stuck referencing shit.

Finally saw the Last Jedi, my FINAL JUDGEMENT:

* Parts with Rey/Luke/Kylo were cool
* Rest was meh
* More visually and musically interesting than the last one
* Overall, I would say it's pretty good I guess
* Except that obnoxious internet commenter/youtuber types hate it and I hate them, so scratch that, it's the best movie of all time!

Addendum: I can't quite put my finger on exactly how but to me it also kinda feels like the anime-fication or JRPG-ification of star wars which I guess I can dig

It's May-the-Fourth here in Osaka, so I started my day with a viewing of ROGUE ONE. I'll either watch THE LAST JEDI or play some SW game soon.

Happy Star Wars Day, errybody!
