Drifter Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) What the hell is their problem with naming the new movies? It should have been Last of the Jedi if they were going to keep with the classic naming conventions.

Little Nemo McFly Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) I thought Han would make it through the whole Sequel Trilogy. I figured he n' Chewie were too much of a pop-culture 'classic duo' and 'recognizable' to kill off or split. "I was wrong." I honestly didn't feel anything when he died - my brain said, 'Harrison just doesn't want to do this shit anymore.' LOL - 'here's his condition on appearing'...same w/ Mystique being in her 'Jennifer Lawrence mask' in like, 90% of Apocalypse. Took me out - obvious real-world catering to the actors...as opposed to actors committing full-hearted to a project - not just 'cuz o' money. I mean, yes - they made it work, story-wise - but, eh. Who didn't want a Han n' Luke reunion?! Mystique in full-blue - saying 'fuck you' to 'normal'...at all times? Ah, well. I gotta feeling we're gonna get a Harrison cameo in a 'Han n' Luke flashback' - like, we'll get to see the very last time they saw each other...people would squeal seeing 'em onscreen together again - LOL - that'd be super-awesome. Now that Fisher is gone - I'm sure they're gonna rework some story-points where she doesn't make it out of a situation or something. Man, it's crazy - of the trio, one gone in fiction and the other for realzies. If Luke goes out - I hope he doesn't go out like a punk, like Han did. WARNING! INCOMING FAN-FICTION: When Han first spotted Kylo w/ his back turned to him - I would've loved for Han to instinctively go for his blaster - quietly unhooking the blaster strap, like in the Cantina Encounter. Then - thinks about it - n' visually, we see him go against instinct and consciously lets his blaster sit in it's holster and instead - try to appeal to his son's love...showing Han in full faith-mode (which, I would say - symbolize Han's overall character arch). Han had given up on Kylo at that point - until he spoke w/ Leia. I think if Han had bumped into Kylo before his conversation w Leia and had the opportunity to smite Kylo - I think he would've taken the shot, before Kylo could kill anyone else. Instead, the music simply goes quiet - the scene aesthetically turns into the most perfectly-obvious 'incoming death scene' and Han just...walks into it - LOL! I would've liked more emphasis on Han knowingly and willingly walking into a very deadly situation - against his better instincts. Han visually letting his blaster sit - would've spoke volumes. If Luke goes out - I hope it's a death scene worthy of the character. Oh - NERD MODE: DEACTIVATED EDIT: Added Hamill's reaction Edited January 24, 2017 by Little Nemo McFly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Nemo McFly Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 (edited) Luke actually being a part of the movie - is enough for me to nominate this movie for an Oscar: for Best Picture of the Decade.

Little Nemo McFly Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Looks like they're doubling-down on creature effects / animatronics. I'm hopefully seeing an effort here at having these Star Wars Episodes be something you don't see everyday / anymore in movies. A special cinematic event. It all looks insane...I can't wait. I mentioned this elsewhere - if they really wanted to, they could totally animate ships flying around n' doin' stuff on a cpu...then translate that data onto a camera and shoot physical models against bluescreen...I'd love to see the Falcon doin' crazy shit - knowing and seeing it's a physical model. The 'Star Wars' IP can have a very distinct look...and I think my brain is seeing an effort at being visually distinct here. Maybe this n' that 'Dark Crystal' Netflix bit will stir sum appreciation / demand for practical effects and physical models in big budget fantasy stuff again.
