Keep crying like that and I can take a bath.
I've seen the "~ is the next Bladerunner" argument applied to plenty of mediocre (and worse) movies in the past. Prometheus and Terminator Salvation being two examples. And in a few years time everybody has forgotten about them.
^^^Triggered snowflake.
The power of fan-service.
^^^Triggered.
The critics and audiences will just laugh at the cult then.
Because there's never been a crap sequel to a movie has there ? *cough* Matrix *cough*
Surely "sub-hyperspace" is ordinary space? I know this is SW physics, but Disney-enhanced SW physics is a whole new level of stupid.
The 10 Commandments
Moses stands at the banks of the Red Sea. Behind him, the Israelites flee to safety. In front of him, the waters parted, Pharaoh and his army of chariots are advancing across the sea bed. Moses holds his hands aloft to close the waters, but Rose bundles him out of the way.
Rose: Don't kill the ones we hate, it's better to save the ones we love.
Pharaoh's army invades the Promised Land, killing everyone.
Luke will be back in the next movie. Fan-service.
Rey's backstory will be a re-hash of Annakin's, in the same way TFA is a re-hash of ANH.
I wouldn't say TFA is garbage, I generally liked it despite some painfully stupid moments. What I can't do is watch it again after the train-wreck of TLJ.
There's clearly a vacuum in Disney's Star Wars creativity dept. I'll say they'll get remade.
Best thing she could do is admit the movie is shit and move on in life.
A musical based around Jedi Rocks.
Disney purchased Lucasfilm for $4bn. Forbes claims they've made 1/4 of that back, but the SW franchise is losing fans in droves after 4 movies. I doubt Disney will ever make a profit on the deal if they keep churning out crap like TLJ.
^^^ This. In droves (yes, you read that right).
English translation as follows:
Solo is failing, the audience is to blame. Not the producers.
There's a droid - I'm sure he has a name - that appears in all three of the OT. He's on the sandcrawler, then on Cloud City, finally gets tortured to death in Jabba's palace. I want his back story.
It's never established in the movies how you actually 'graduate' as a Jedi. Since Luke was a natural user of The Force, and Jedi Master Yoda called him a Jedi, I never had an issue with Luke's training. Only Spanners does.
