The Last Jedi?
- Thread starter weR138
- Start date
I am just not the fanboy I used to be with these movies. I grew up on the original three and still love them. Everything since has been either awful or just ok like The Force Awakens. Honestly, I loved Rogue One and it is my favorite Star Wars movie since Empire Strikes Back. I'll see this for sure because it's an event but I'm not gaga over it.
I think I'm alone in liking the Force Awakens more than Rogue One. I need to have John Williams composing.
I thought Rogue One had the least developed characters of any Star Wars movie. The Force Awakens did what it needed to do, build a bridge between the OT and the new movies while introducing us to new characters.
I will say that the 3rd act in Rogue One is perhaps the most exciting battle sequence of the franchise so far.

I'm there, too. It looks good to me, but as a fallen fanboy, I haven't even seen Rogue One yet. Until you posted the words, I forgot that one happened.
The Force Awakens restored my faith in the franchise. Character development was important again. I take it you didn't enjoy it? I'm excited to see what Rian Johnson does with the sequel.
Luke Skywalker is finally back. Gotta be worth it just to see him in action again.
No - But it was the only Star Wars movie where the main characters were 100% expendable and weren't meant to span multiple movies.

I thought it was OK, but really should have explained some things, even if it was just in the opening crawl, like who the sides were (at all).
I'm pretty meh on Luke. Once the original trilogy showed what Jedi were really known for, he really became a lot less impressive. I'm sure they can build him up to be stronger than they could at the time, and they really ought to.
The new characters have a lot of potential. They're off to a good start there.
I remember hearing that rumor while TFA was still in development.
Wouldn't shock me too much. He's had a while to hone his craft. Yoda moved his X Wing without breaking a sweat. I'd bet moving a capital ship would drain one a bit more significantly, however.
Well funny you say that. Rogue One sequel (Rogue Two?) is being talked about with a return of the main characters.
Movie poster.
Omg, it's like She-Ra Princess of Power meets The Last Jedi!
Overall, I am excited to see this movie. While the prequels and force awakens had some things that could have been better, I still greatly enjoy the whole saga.
Didn't that rumor get published on April 1st?
