What I’m Hearing...

Rise of Skywalker is absolute trash, as expected. Congrats to Disney on fucking up a Star Wars trilogy after a promising start to it

When I saw #JJAbramsCancelParty was trending I knew we were in trouble

You could argue it peaked after Empire

ThomasFremont

The shows have been good. The movies (besides Rogue One) have been bad.

Almost like planning a story matters... who knew.

Might as well let Michael Bay direct the next star wars movies.

Going to a Star Wars movie and being disappointed that the movie sucks is like going to Taco Bell and complaining about the diarrhea. Dude, it's chain food: Of COURSE you're going to get the shits! If ya haven't figured this out by now, it's your fault.

Star Wars movies are written by committee and focus-grouped to death to please the lowest common denominator of mouth breathers. All art has long been sucked out before it hits the screen. Rinse, repeat.

Sounds like the NFL.

Harrison Ford I'm sure demanded to be killed off. And he demanded 20 million. Shit series, shit movies.

The icing on the cake was Leia flying through space. The worst scene in cinema history. I LOL'd in the theatre..didn't really go over well with a few people around me.

It’s because you are just a Star Trek troll trying to make Star Wars look bad.

Star Wars was pretty fucking cool to a 10 year old kid. I remember hiding out in the theater so we could watch it a second time because we thought it was so cool the first time. I'm not sure if my dads felt the same way. I know I haven't given a fuck about a Star Wars movie since maybe Empire. The fucking Ewoks ruined the whole thing for me.

The only good things in the Sta Wars universe since Empire are Slave Suit Leia, Rogue One, and The Mandalorian. Everything else has been shit. Well, I thought Solo was just above shit, but not great. It's devolved into a GI Joe movie in space now. Joke.

Luke Skywalker going back to face Darth Vader in Return of the Jedi was where it all peaked. Downhill from there...

Star Wars is for kids, Star Trek is for adults. The reason people think Stars Wars sucks, is because they grew up and wanted Star Wars to grow with them.

Clone Wars and Rebels are good too. Otherwise agree.

Except for Solo. That was a piece of shit.

I thought Solo was okay. I am the only person I know who thought that.

Solo was shit. Not because of the script, which was mediocre. Because of the cinematography. Heey, we've got all this money and scifi shit, lets have horrible lighting and framing because we gotta make it GRITTY

Seeing it at 9:30 tonight

Will report at midnight, with mondo spoilers

Han Solo was shit because of Harrison - he only has one facial expression - the concerned we are in danger look. Even if he does comedy.
all the lighting in the world would not improve that expression.

I pretty much don't like any Star Wars other than the original films when I'm in the right mood. Sci fi ain't my bag, baby. BUT Rogue One actually was pretty decent and if I liked it, it must have not totally sucked.
