MonteCarl Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 It's always just Star Wars for me. Not episode 4 or A New Hope. I'm 43. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 How I refer to them if I'm not thinking about it: "Star Wars" "Empire" "Jedi" "Episode I" "Episode II" "Episode III" "Force Awakens" "Last Jedi." 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurningBeard Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I hope someone shoe-horns that SC38 fight into a fan-edit. It was funny going back and rewatching them recently how woeful the Vader/Obi Wan fight comes across 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Friendly reminder, there is a thread for Episode IX - or whatever the fuck you call it. That is the place you put reviews, spoilers, pictures, memes, and all that stuff. DO NOT post spoilers here. The consequences will be... severe. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 TY. We're seeing it Saturday. And Sunday. Only 2 days of avoiding spoilers. Not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) I refer to Episode IV as A New Hope because it has the Han Shot Second bullshit. In the real Star Wars, Han shot first. Yes, I am over forty years old. And grumpy. And have horrible opinions. I'm going to try to go to the 6PM showing of Rise on Sunday because I know that Thursday - Saturday will be a fucking circus.

MonteCarl Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I'm watching Episode III - Revenge of the Sith right now. Been quite awhile since I've watched this beginning to end. Probably over 10 years, if not more. Man, just as with Attack of the Clones, anything involving Anakin and Padme is so horrible. Zero chemistry at all between those two, and the dialogue is just as horrible. All the acting is so wooden across the board. I can't handle any of the prequels. I don't know whether to blame Hayden Christensen for bringing it all down with his horrible acting, or if it's simply impossible for any actor to properly emote when reciting the lines they're given in this film. I mean, even Natalie Portman is pretty bad in this. Yet, Ian McDiarmid just chews all the scenery he can in every scene he's in and seems to make it work. There are good movies in the prequels buried in there somewhere, but Lucas did not bring them to the screen at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I have no idea when we're going to see it. As we speak, 7 year old is watching Last Jedi for the first time. This means the teenager can go with my wife and I can go with the 7 year old. But no idea when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was what made the prequels so disappointing. Lucas is a great idea and general story guy, but he needs someone there to weave it all together for him and deal with the details. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 More of what I'm seeing and hearing out of Rise of Skywalker makes it seem like fans unfairly maligned the wrong movie and filmmaker with Last Jedi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLSigman Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 With Mom constantly sick and no help from family, I may get to see the new movie sometime after it's released digitally.

On the one hand, I am totally happy that she is embracing tacky horror cinema. For better or worse, there is some DNA in there somewhere that belongs to me. On the other hand, I feel that I have failed her as a father as she shows no interest in going to see a Star Wars epic closer on opening weekend. Edited December 17, 2019 by J.T.

One of the things that drew us together was sci fi/fantasy and one of our earliest dates was waiting in line and seeing the re-released Star Wars in the theater I have known about her love of Cats since the moment I knew her too. I just never knew her preference. That being said - if this choice had to have been made 20 years ago I think it would have been different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
