Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker

FTFY

Because in conservat-ese, "spot on", means "calling you dumb makes me feel cool, and I need to get in on that".

Media Central.

I think certain members should be banned from Media Central, because all they do is shit on everything and/or bait other members.

Jeez, the last few seconds of that trailer are going to be dissected and over-analyzed by geeks for the next four months...

Meh. Ren's fears or Kylo's shown to them by Palps as a breaker/motivator, like the Cave on Dagobah.

More concerned about 3PO with the red eyes.

That dude cuts loose with HIS repressed anger, shit's gonna get real.

Pretty obvious that Rey as a Sith with a red lightsaber is just something to make us go "WHAT? WOW!!!" so we're distracted from how terrible TLJ was

Unfortunately there's a million @Diacanu 's all posting horseshit like he does from the comfort of their parents home

They really need to get out more

And what members would that be, shit for brains?

From the rumors (not going to link again, read the thread) C-3PO

Warned.

Take that shit to the Red Room.

My TROS theory?
They're raiding the old EU like a fraternity fridge.

The hidden star destroyer fleet = Dark Force Rising.
Resurrected Emperor = Dark Empire.
Evil clone Rey = The Last Command.

And you know what?
I don't even mind.
The EU did absolutely everything, so there's no way to avoid something they did, so may as well just give up and lean into it.

Speculation is that evil Rey is a vision of some kind. The trailers are always misleading.

I'm going with evil clone theory.
It fits with her cave vision in TLJ.

JJ did say they’re going to connect to the prequels in some way. @We Are Borg will probably lose it though.

JJ finally put it on the record, and to rest, TLJ didn't "derail", what he set up in TFA.

I goddamned told ya, ya TLJ hater lunkheads.
JJ was a producer on TLJ, he read the script, he had to give approvals on it.
What kind of worthless powerless producer not worth the title sits idly by, and goes "ohhhh, you've ruined my story! I have to fix your mess with ret-cons! "?
That's not a thing that happens.
Except in the weird recesses of fanboy-conspiracy-land.

Seriously dude, why are you so condescending about shit like this. It's just a movie, or a series of movies. You don't have to denigrate anyone for having a different opinion on movie.

So they both had a hand in destroying the franchise and dividing the fan base, okay. That seems contradictory to past interviews, but whatever.

Cuz it's funny. Loosen up.

Yeah, you're the one that constantly acts like you're the definitive word on every movie posted on here, but then again most lives don't revolve around movies, to me they're entertainment not my life or even close to it.

Loosen.
Up!

Even if it had, do you think that he'd admit it? We're talking about a multi-billion dollar franchise, which once you're attached to it, you can be on the gravy train for life (explicit reference to the use of the phrase from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy here).

Maybe, but neither of us is a mind reader, or a shrink, and I refuse to wear the tinfoil.
That way lies madness.
And stupid.

Nothing like subverting expectations like making the Last Jedi not matter. What a twist!!!

I think the whole question is immaterial, but Abrams' vague statement about IIX "not really" derailing his plans in that article is hardly a clear signal either way. It could just as easily mean that he's got it back on track now.

Exactly. Just like Lucas planned all twelve movies. But @Diacanu thinks he’s got the scoop or beaten us or something, it’s quite pathetic.

If I hadn't destroyed your whole entire life, you wouldn't be crying about it.
But you are, so I did.


Look at it as an opportunity.
You brand new life picking up from the smoking rubble can be a better one.
Steal a name and social off a dead baby, and become a brand new person.
Highlander does it all the time.
Look how well he turned out.

That poster with Palpatine, it’s from a toy.

@Diacanu will now proceed with the argument routine from Monty Python
“No it isn’t!”

“Yes is it is!”

It is not!”

Yes!”

“They wouldn’t do anything like that!”

“Yes they would!”

“No, no, no, you don’t understand, they wouldn’t be that lazy and disrespectful to the fans and the actor like that!”

“Sure they would, they’ve done it before!”

“They have not!”

“Yes, they have!”

“I’m sorry your time is up.”

“No it isn’t, I paid for for a five minute argument.”

“No you didn’t.”
....You get it.

I don't care.


Guess what?
The old Ralph McQuarrie ANH poster doesn't look like Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher.
The Darth Vader on the old ESB poster looks like it's from a clay model, and not the movie Vader.
Did it ruin our lives?
Nope.

It doesn’t ruin my life, I just think it’s mostly lazy and a little bit of yet another slap in the face to the fans.
