Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8)
Dunno how I will cope though as working 8-6 on the day then cinema from 9pm till about 2.30am I think. Will be totally knackered. Many energy drinks I think!
New trailer does look awesome and some cool looking scenes. Am sure many won't play out like we think going from the clips. |
Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8)
I wouldn't be able to do it. I could just about manage it if I was off work the following day and go home from the cinema knowing I could go to sleep but there is no way I could work another day. When it comes to midnight premieres (e.g. Thor, Justice League, Star Wars and Black Panther) I book the day after off so I can sleep and recover. I have booked Thursday and Friday off this year so I can go to the double bill in 2D, come home and asleep and then go and see it in 3D in the afternoon and I'll probably go again on Friday and Saturday as well.

we are less than 2 weeks away now so here is a little teaser for you

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8)
ok so here we go. I have been putting it off because I can't believe I am going to moan about a Star Wars film but the more I think about it the more it does my head in. I have seen it three times and none of my opinions have changed since the first time I saw it. Part of my problem is that I don't quite know how to explain what is wrong with it. I have been thinking about the pros and cons in my head and the number of pros outweigh the number of cons but it is still very bad. There is something missing from it which makes it not feel like a Star Wars film. It is as if somebody had been told about Star Wars who had never seen it before, tried to make a film of what they thought Star Wars was and slapped the name on the front of it. The closest analogy I can come up with is how many people perceive the new Star Trek films. They aren't Star Trek as we know it but the difference is that there is still a Trek-ness to them and they are more Trek than not. For me, this is less Star Wars than it is Star Wars.
Spoiler:
There are good bits and bad bits to all films and most of the time they are just little niggles but you still enjoy the film. For me this wasn't Star Wars. I haven't got niggles, I have got big problems and there are too many of them and cumulatively they take away the Star Wars feel to the film. I read that Mark Hamill didn't like the story at all going into the film and now I know why. My only hope is that the next film returns to Star Wars as we know it as JJ is coming back. |
Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8)
i thought the problem was they tried to hard to make it a star wars film, it was like they had a check list of things which have to be in it
space battle chase scene light sabre fight funny bits teaching session and then they thought, lets put a few of each of them in to make the fans happy, and then thought of a way to link the set pieces :( individually all the standard bits were good, but the stuff to hold them together in some parts was nonsense, which for me stopped me enjoying it, and then it dragged and dragged, to the point I just wanted it to end :( |
Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8)
I have to disagree with almost all you posted general. That for me was a brilliant Star Wars film and for me the best since ESB. Yeah there were a few little niggles for me but that was all.
Rian Johnson did a fantastic job and has even been asked back for a whole new triology. |

As an example for what i was saying earlier, Rogue One had no Jedi or force in it yet it managed to capture the tone and feel of Star Wars perfectly and they kept the faith alive with samurai dude "i am one with the force and the force is with me". For me Rogue One is the best Star Wars film and in contrast TLJ just pisses all over it. It is like they tried to do it without understanding what they were doing. |
Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8)
They obviously understood Star Wars and what the plans for the trilogy were. You are the only person that disliked it and moaned about many of the really good enjoyable Star Wars moments. The humour was great as well.
My only change would have been to remove to whole Canto Bight section. That was utterly pointless. |
Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8)
Please be very careful what you reveal in this thread because it does not have a no spoilers warning.

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8)
I haven't revealed anything.

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8)
Looks like audiences are agreeing with the General.
