Don't think there's a thread for ep.9 yet (I did a search and found nothing) so yeah here it is. Coming out Dec. 20th. When they reveal the name I'm sure the thread name will be edited.

its gonna be freaking awesome

Glad for those that are looking forward to this. That being said I couldn't possibly care less. Disney Wars is dead to me. BUT AGAIN, I'm glad for anyone who enjoys it, I can be critical of something and still understand it has merit.

Can't be any worse than TLJ which I was not a fan of. Abrams returning gives me hope.

Theres literally nothing to look forward to. The big 3 are gone, and we have already seen Rey defeat Kylo. Dont see the excitement in watching that a second time.

At least we still got Chewbacca...which doesn't mean much

Boom, Trilogy. Kylo had MORE TRAINING than her, was being trained by Snoke "The Joke" and she was just....absorbing power. She went from survivor to badass who cannot only "Out-force" Kylo but overpower him physically (lol) as well. Rey is fit, but I'm sorry....the skinny girl overpowering grown men (wait a minute....did I just call Kylo a man?) is a stupid trope these days. Superheroes are different. Captain Marvel, Wonder Woman, hell even women with years and years of IN DEPTH training like Black Widow I can get behind but Rey just out wacking people with a stick occasionally (we're assuming because it wasn't shown).

She can also fly a spacecraft perfectly, she's a mechanic that can fix problems, she learned an advanced Jedi Mind trick in 2 or 3 attempts without training...etc etc.


Rey is a boring character that has faced little to no adversity and has already beaten her "rival". Essentially she's just going to beat Kylo again in Ep. 9 and everyone will be happy yay. Meh. Uninteresting characters going forward, and legends killed off without class. Good job Disney, good job.

You left out that she fixed a problem with the falcon that Han couldn't fix, I know you had mechanic but I felt this needed mentioning alone because that was a load of BS. No one and I mean NO ONE, apart from maybe Chewie, knows more about the Falcon than Han especially someone who's been on the Falcon for 5 damn minutes

I'm fine with the legacy characters being sent off, as the stories need to move forward and beyond them, though I wasn't much of a fan of Luke's passing the way it was handled, he essentially over-Forced himself. I'd prefer that he died in actual combat, not punking Kylo.

But in regards to Kylo & Rey, with the time-jump, they're both going to have increased in power. Kylo in ep8 was already more powerful than in ep7, why he was able to shield or confuse his thoughts/desires from Snoke. We can also assume that both Kylp and Rey have probably been focusing and training themselves in what we don't see between the films.

She used the Force to guide her, like Luke did in epIV

Of course they will both have grown more powerful. My point is weve already seen her overcome him, so dont see why I should be excited to watch her overcome him again.

So long Abrams rebukes, contradicts, and makes Rian's work NON-CANON I shall be happy and really looking forward for this movie...Otherwise...We could expect the WORST trilogy ending movie seen in a long time......

He won't, I consider this whole new trilogy non canon TBH

I've not bickered with quan for about two years now, maybe longer.

ps It worked

Yeah I remember most threads in the movie discussion and movie vs was just pages and pages of you two arguing back and forth. Nice to know love eventually prevailed.

I feel pot committed to this so I have to watch it. As a life long SW fan, I'll be there opening weekend. Even though I haven't liked these recent movies as much as the originals, I still gotta give them a shot.

They had to bring him in. These movies only formula - thus far - is to ride off OT Nostalgia. And now theres a situation where neither Harrison Ford or Carrie Fisher can reprise their roles.

Either way Knights of Ren have to be in this one. They cant just ignore them for the whole trilogy.

If C-3PO is turned into some sort of fighting badass Rebel, that indeed is a huge problem and I enjoyed Ep7-8.

Don't see Rose so that's a step in the right direction

Lucas really did minimise those scenes for Ep.3 though. As he minimised Jar Jar after his backlash in Ep.1.

So he actually did listen. Which is why he ended that trilogy on a very good and well received note.

Yeah he did tone it down. Not a single mention of sand. Though seriously yeah, I just fast forward through the Padme scenes and otherwise the movie is pretty great.

Being a big SW's fan I've watched all the behind the scenes footage about the prequels that I could and you can tell people never really told George "no".

As for this series...I hope they paid attention to criticism. Either they paid attention or they are gonna double down. At least there are shows like "Rebels".

Well the fans/audiences told him no.

Seriously though thats not all a bad thing. He was basically the biggest Independent filmmaker in Hollywood. It was all his imagination. And love his end product or hate it, no one can deny how damn creative he was.

I agree that those things are likely based on the title.

Underwhelming. I can't believe my former favorite movie franchise has fallen this low. I want to go back in time and tell 15 year old me to just let it go and not expect much more so I wouldn't feel the disappointment I've felt these last few years.

Think this looks great. Can't wait.

Seems like they're just reacting to negative opinions all the time. Which means they never had any idea where they were going when they wrote ep VII. Surely if you're envisioning a trilogy from the start you actually have the bare bones for the entire thing. Apparently not. Just make it up as you go along dependent on people's complaints.

It's working so well for the Alien franchise too.

They've pretty much confirmed this. The idea was to just give each movie to a different filmmaker and just kind of let them do what they wanted while still being more or less connected, they didn't really have any overarching ideas. Very strange decision from them, but whatever.

By that laugh at the end of the teaser we all can agree with Quan: Snoke was the strongest force user that ever lived

On the one hand that sounds really shity and I hate it, on the other hand I feel like it's a lot more likely that she'll end up being a Skywalker then the title being about Ben.

What a disappointing trilogy we ended up with, and with such underwhelming Episode titles.


At least we had Rogue One.

Well at least there might be Palpatine going by the laugh.

Also how does Rey have a lightsaber? Didn't it blow up in TLJ?

Ep 9... I dont know how to feel about yet still.

Well I have to admit it's a good trailer, but the title is stupid and I have no faith in JJ Abrams, plus it's clear they're just making it up as they go.

"member the death star?
member tie interceptors?
member lando?
member palpatine?
member kylo's mask?

star wars: ep iX: member the skywalkers?"


oh and rey does a cool flip. *sigh*

^ Yeah, pretty much.

But it was spliced together well. A very competent trailer.

But one can tell it doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be a competent 2-hour movie.

Star Wars is worthless.

This series sucks

Rouge one and Solo are only good movies.

Solo was surprisingly fun. Not great, but I'd much rather have an anthology movie over another "Saga" episode with characters that I don't care about. Solo was a film where the behind the scenes drama overwhelmed the general audience impression of it to its detriment.

I will also give a shout-out to Solo. I enjoyed it more than most of the other new "Star Wars related" films. Not that it was flawless, but it had a bit more grounded adventure and fun in it.

The Force Awakens - cringe worthy bad after the first half
The Last Jedi - visually fun with nice practical gags and creatures etc, and I actually liked what they did with Skywalker, but also had some seriously stupid shit
Rogue One - boring nostalgia grab

I agree. I don't know why people rate Rogue One the best of the new films. It's characters were all wooden planks. I've said before, when the only character you care about dying is the robot then you've got a serious problem connecting with the audience.

Because "i dont have an emotional connection to the characters" is a criticism that applies to 7 out of the 10 star wars movies released thus far.

I had an emotional connection to the Rogue One characters. Jyn Erso was a good character that I related to. Same for the others.

People don't like that it's an actual war movie and not a space fantasy.

Jyn Erso needed more fire in her if she was suppose to spark the Rebellion, Just came off bland.

Jesus Christ. What absolute trash. Bringing back Sidious is not only desperate and pathetic but it completely invalidates RotJ's ending, Vader's sacrifice and the whole chosen one prophecy. And wow. Another desert planet, another snow planet and the death star again. How original. Everyone involved in these movies is a hack.

^ It is desperate. Because they were in a desperate state after Solo flopped and The Last Jedi pretty universally disappointed people.

Oh wow Butthurt Beni action.

TFA to TLJ was the worst drop in box office for a Star Wars Episodic sequel of all time. It dropped by 700MILLION or 35%. TLJ also had the lowest box office multiplier of any Star Wars film ever save Solo.

You put that together with Solo flopping (make all the excuses you want for that), and on top of the increasing hate for Disney Star Wars, and it was quite apparent to Disney that they had to rethink the way they were going about this.

And LMAO at 2nd highest grossing SW film of all time? You comparing it to Star Wars films from 15 to 30 years back? Hey guess what Phantom Menace made more than ANH and was the HIGHEST grossing Star Wars film of all time until TFA, so must have been Universally praises right Beni?

Try looking at the facts objectively, instead of spinning them completely out of context. Even Disney realised they had to revamp shit.

None of the characters in Rogue One were remotely likeable. They were all practically the same. Miserable, jaded and boring with the sole exception of the robot. At least TFA and TLJ had Han, Poe and even Finn with a bit of charisma. It's only redeeming part was Vader's massacre at the end.

Just saw the trailer. Lol. It all seems so generic now. There is also no point in bringing back Sidious and if you want to do it...you should have kept it secret.

TLJ also still ranks well above the prequels save TPM when adjusted for inflation, and yes, TPM was a huge financial success, despite butthurt fans.

It's not smart though. They already took a dump on the OT by making Luke a failure. Now they're going to ruin Vader's sacrifice and the prophecy too. These people have absolutely no respect for Star Wars or its fanbase, which is why I skipped TLJ and Solo in theaters and it looks like I'll skip IX too.

What a butthurt excuse. You probably didn't even know what a massive drop off it had, and just came in here using box office as your defence but not actually having a clue what you're talking about.

Lets see now... Avengers was only the 3rd movie ever to hit 1.5 billion when it came out. It was also a big event, being the first time multiple franchises had been put together in such a big way like that. Did that mean its sequel was guaranteed to have a whopping 35% drop off. Nope. It only went down by 100mill, and the 3rd film MASSIVELY Surpassed it.

Infinity War was the 4th film to make $2billion. 10 years in the making. You expecting End Game to also drop 700MILLION?

You're just full of silly excuses.

Yeah because the Star Wars brand name isn't worth anything. They just paid $4billion for that as charity for George.

You are truly idiotic.

No, based off TLJ's Massive drop off, based off Solo flopping, based off the hate towards the new films, especially TLJ. Based on Disney completely changing direction based on all this, because Disney execs are not blind corporate fanboys like you.

None of the characters in Rogue One were remotely likeable. They were all practically the same. Miserable, jaded and boring with the sole exception of the robot. At least TFA and TLJ had Han, Poe and even Finn with a bit of charisma. It's only redeeming part was Vader's massacre at the end. Han was ****ing awful and Finn was borderline insulting, Poe is the only one of that trio somewhat likable (and in TLJ he is character assassinated and becomes extremely unlikable, thanks Rian). Pretty much everyone in the R1 crew beyond the two leads were likable at best and forgettable at worse. None of them had enough material to be unlikable.

I liked Donnie Yen too; he was all right. Just, as with everyone else, underdeveloped.

Nah.

I honestly couldn't tell you if I liked rogue one, or I liked rogue one's Darth Vader scene

But he is right. Bringing back Sheev is an obvious and desperate attempt to appeal to the fans while trying to salvage the mess left behind by Rian. TFA was clearly trying to build up Snoke as the big bad, but Rian ****ed that up when he killed him off. With Snoke dead, there was no character left who could act as the final boss. Kylo isn't a threat, he's already has his ass kicked twice and Rian turned Hux into a spaceballs character. So Lucasfilm brought back Sidious to act as the final villain.

What if Sheev only appears in a flashback, as an illusion or something?

Then everyone would be rightfully pissed.

Exactly.

Basically what Disney SW excel at.

Yeah, the final like half hour or so saves the movie. That scene was epic.

The first half of the movie is honestly pretty garbage.

I enjoyed the space battle, Vader and the robot

It's not smart though. They already took a dump on the OT by making Luke a failure. Now they're going to ruin Vader's sacrifice and the prophecy too. These people have absolutely no respect for Star Wars or its fanbase, which is why I skipped TLJ and Solo in theaters and it looks like I'll skip IX too.

Well we don't know if Palaptine is alive, Could very well be just a force ghost.

I thought Sith didn't get force ghosts...which would add to why Darth Plagueis/Sidious made such a big deal trying to cheat death.

Also having Palpatine again kind of invalidates Snoke's existence even more so than TLJ

Marka Ragnos comes to mind from Legends.

Are we seeing the second death star in the trailer?

Certainly looks like it.

Sith shouldn't be able to become Force ghosts though. The whole point of the Jedi philosophy is to reach enlightenment that the Sith cannot because they only care about the physical and the material.

Unless Palps found a way to do so...Still unknown if there has been any sith that have become ghosts in the current canon

been plenty of sith that have found a way in Legends.

It's ok, no one's ever really gone...

They really should stop making those.

Well they usually get blown up so yeah

This is going to happen for the 4th time in current canon, lol.

That's why I thought Force Awakens was so cringe-worthy in the second half because it was just another Death Star that was easily dismantled.
