Who is looking forward to this? |

|

wish han did not die. mark hamill ( from the trailer) seems to be well into the role. looks good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
chewy looks cgi to me ... his hairs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

wish carrie was not dead too. conventions will never be the same again. |

Me. Not in a « wow this is going to be amazing, new, thought provoking AND Star Wars » way though. More in a « this will be fun, better than any of the prequels anyway » way. |

Where have you been Umbro! |

I will watch it 3 or 4 weeks after it comes out when the kids all go back to school. |

ep 7 was decent and rogue one was okaaaaaayyyyy... but orcs and octopuses don't belong in star wars |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and neither do the goombas from that mario bros movie, that casino scene looks a bit odd |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah the Cgi gnome looked really out of place, didn't anyone say to the director, this looks a bit shit compared to the rest of the film |
||||||||
|
|

I'll see it, I'll probably see it about 3 times. I'll take Master LOL whilst bearing in mind when we went to see Rogue One he said "Can I get some food to entertain myself?"... I'm prepared to be mildly surprised, I guess the pressure's off since Force Awakens and I dare say this one will be a bit "ooooh" darker. There'll be some tedious twist, some amaaaa...(*yawn*)...aaazing revelation, some great loss. Some throwing of fan favourites into the mix (ooh a T-16, was that Bossk?!?!? Fin's related to Chewie!?!??!) I'm not looking forward to it, per se, about the same level of enthusiasm as RD displays. |

Like with TFA you will praise it at first and then have a right old go at it later when you won’t be able to bare it all anymore. Probably all triggered by a porg. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

after the disappointment TFA was I was looking forward to seeing new Blade Runner on big screen. but again: what I saw at the cinema was some kind of "soft reboot". so this time, when it was time for new Star Wars and another possible trip to the nearest cinema I thought "fuck it, I don't want to leave the cinema half-deaf and let down again - I'll just rent it this time and TRY to watch the whole of it" - and I'll keep enjoying youtube buckets of shit that Mark Hammill has poured on TLJ so far. official Star Wars: r.i.p. for me. well done JJ, you fucked it up. Rogue One was surprisingly very enjoyable to watch, maybe cause I expected the worst, made me want to watch it again. ~offtopic: not intending to sound like an old grumpy man, lol. I feel lucky to be finding some bearable/decent sci-fi now and then. I enjoyed Arrival, also had fun seeing [finally] the new Alien [Covenant] despite it's stupidity and being another "soft reboot" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
arrival was good yeah, I enjoyed alien covenant, at least it wasn't as bad as alien resurrection |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Alien 4 was somewhat "abstract funny" [basketball? or the "crying" alien/human baby] or just meandering into B or C movie area thanks to Jeunet in a way that was just funny/laughable but it WASN'T rehashing previous films plots just like A:C did with Alien1. what's happening today in the "sci-fi classics comeback department" is just... sad. |
||||||||
|

I did like the ripley mutations scene, and a few other things, I know the director is talented, it felt a bit to much like a comic book for my personal tastes. Whats frustrating about Prometheus is there is half a decent idea there, but isn't take far enough, the fact they made the space jockey have proto human origins was really shit, it takes away from the horror of the unknown if you give stuff prosaic origins. I always preferred how the original giger one looked like in the first Alien film, weird and unknowable, not a giant slaphead in a space suit |

"I always preferred how the original giger one looked like in the first Alien film, weird and unknowable, not a giant slaphead in a space suit " Well, exactly. It's like a lot of things that are at pains to explain everything, and in the process just rob any of the magic and ambiguity that people enjoyed whatever it was in the first place. The "arc" in Alien now that we upset the Engineers (*vomit*), destroyed one of their planets and that that somehow leads to the original Alien ... blurrrgh, Fan Fiction territory. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

For some reason I love alien covenant. Probably my second favourite. It is a mess though, they should never have leant so heavily on the engineers although thats the fault of Prometheus which made the utterly stupid mistake of being a prequel. Would have been far more sensible imo to skip a lot of Prometheus and have bits of it plus covenant as a divergent sequel to alien with weyland yutani sending out a mission based on info they find in the first two movies. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I loved Covenant and Prometheus! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Well, I had a good time watching them. Won’t be getting the Blu-rays. Mind you, I don’t buy DVDs anymore, and have yet to own a Blu-ray, but will be getting the new Twin Peaks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I got the blu-rays and then my girlfriend told me off for wasting money when covenant was in Kermodes 10 worst of the year. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well she shouldn’t be doing that! To each his own, especially in a field that is still pretty subjective. Also Kermode is not God of Ultimate Taste. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
In her defence i already had the dvds for all of them but covenant so i can understand why she took exception to me doubling up 5 times on top of buying a much maligned movie. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Also Kermode has shite taste sometimes! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like him, but he really fucking does, the fact he prefers last jedi to original star wars means he is a right wrong un |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He's right on that one ;) |
||||||||
|
|

death to the apostate! |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
a man who has bouffant like a shoe brush cannot be trusted! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That's actually really true. He probably doesn't even watch most of the movies he reviews. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I do usually respect his reviews, my personal tastes don't always align with his, but when a film is good or shit more times than not I agree with him. |
||||||||

Han's dead, princess is dead, luke is dead and yoda is an arsonist. and 3po had a red arm. imdb movie rating= minus 10 well done. you cat make it up...oh wait, some how, they did. The powers to destroy the west, as we know it, have even taken control of our fave movies to weaken the core strength of the mind. Next up Disney to re-release the original trilogy as a special edition...new cgi , new characters included ...Luke dies early in scene 3 of new hope....han flips burgers at canteen. and the story takes us somewhere completely different. |

I'll never forgive George Lucas for strapping that bloody cgi beak on sarlacc. What was he thinking, perhaps he went totally blind after the end of return of the jedi and no one noticed |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
imagine if they made a film about Ghoel: a star wars story. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Staring jony Depp as Ghoel |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Christ I feel sad when I read freqy now. Just plain sad. Unless she’s trolling, which would be ace. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ghoel? whos that? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha i knew you would arrive druster. |
||||||||
|
|

Synopsis, Ghoel is the inscrutable and totally immobile agent of the max reebo band |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think we are both exaggerating for humorous purpose, well I know I am |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

ahh might be cool if Luke is still about ! |

oh course but russledust loves the new films as much as the old ones and has bought a few of the new toys so he gets upset allot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
imagine if they built a new death star (no.3) again ...for after jedi, lol. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is dusty still upset? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I suppose at least the 3rd one might be interesting now, as no one as any idea how they are going to make a new film first scene: Death star appears out of a planetry shadow is immeditaly destroyed by planet which turns out to be super death star! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah they destroy the old design and we move on with the new. very good idea hyper. you should have been on the writing/ideas team. |
||||||||

What I was most disappointed about last Jedi was I thought kylo ren was going to turn good, but felt like they chickened out on it |
