Star Wars: The Last Jedi
 
I think it might be a positive if we have separate thread for the movies. I feel in the future if you want to see what people thought of the latest movie you wouldn't have to go through 22 pages of posts.

How Mark Hamill wanted 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' to end

Quote:

With "The Last Jedi" just over a week away, Mark Hamill recently stopped by "Popcorn With Peter Travers" to talk about the upcoming film, but also to look back at his illustrious legacy within the galaxy far, far away.

In fact, Hamill says he had an amazing idea for an alternate ending of sorts for "The Force Awakens" and pitched it to J.J. Abrams.

At the time of Solo's death, it's Daisy Ridley's Rey, Finn and Chewbacca who witness the evil act and try to save Solo, but Hamill wanted something drastically different.

"I was frustrated when I read the script and said, 'We don't have any scenes, even a brief reunion!' I objected to that. I said, 'I think the fans are not gonna like it.' I was wrong!"

Instead, fans loved the film and as Hamill points out, "there was no backlash."

But he told Abrams, "Instead of Finn and Rey coming and almost saving Han, what if it's Leia and I?"

He continued, "She's about to be abducted by two costume guards, one guard turns to the other guard, shoots the guard, takes off his helmet and it's me! That I did get her message. I said, No. 1, it's a hell of an entrance, No. 2, it's misdirection ... We're [also] back on a Death Star, very similar! We rush to his aid, we don't alter what you want to do, but if we witness Han dying, that has so much emotional resonance that will carry into the next film."

"That was my suggestion, as you see ... [it didn't happen]," he said, laughing.

But wow, what could have been.
Would have been really bad.

we only do super threads here now. Sorry

Shisen Kopf 12-06-2017 04:34 PM

Was hoping it was going to be called the Lost Jedi and the whole movie would be a fetch quest. Last Jedi, not as good.

Big Vic 12-06-2017 04:50 PM

That was the plot of the last movie.

Ezra 12-06-2017 08:28 PM

Why is Ridley so hot in star wars garb?

Fignuts 12-06-2017 10:13 PM

Is she?

Darth Butterface

Destor 12-06-2017 10:14 PM

It works for me

Damian Rey 2.0 12-06-2017 10:49 PM

Nah bruh. She's hot.

Kalyx triaD 12-07-2017 09:00 AM

She aight.

Hope they explain why Luke lives on this dumb island.

Fignuts 12-12-2017 06:56 AM

They have a Whole Foods.

Ezra 12-12-2017 06:01 PM

He probably eats those porgs. They are said to reproduce like I would with daisy ridley.

Savio 12-12-2017 06:59 PM

He must be lonely on that island..... Lots of fapping.



Apparently the new movie has 93% on the Tomato meter....The Force Awakens has 93% too but I didn't like that one.

Would you rather live by yourself on this island or in the Dagobah swamp? At least there might be good food.

Fignuts 12-14-2017 05:31 AM

Yeah, looks like it has good fishing.

Lock Jaw 12-14-2017 08:09 AM

All the juicy Porgs he could eat

OverTaker 12-14-2017 11:51 AM

Fish, porgs, fapping, and maybe some exotic fruits and vegetables...perfect for a retired old Jedi.

Ezra 12-15-2017 03:46 AM

People are going to laugh at taker's post.

I loved it. Absolutely loved it.

Fignuts 12-15-2017 03:59 AM

Just got back.

Really enjoyed it, but there were some things that rustled my jimmies.

Was slow at times, and the story didn't really flow very well. New characters didn't remotely click with me as well as characters introduced in Awakens and Rogue One.

One other thing, that I'm not going to hold against it...yet
SPOILER: show

Snoke. I love a good mystery. And Snoke is a big one. Of everything I was looking forward to in this movie, more insight into Snoke is what I was looking forward to the most. But we didn't get anything. And now he's dead. I'm not holding it against the film, because there's still another movie. It's possible the whole thing was just a trick and he's alive, or that he was a pawn and there is a greater master. Anything. But if it's not addressed, and they just let one of the most pivotal characters of the new lore get dusted with no explanation of who he is or where he came from? Hoo boy, this whole trilogy takes a big hit for me.


Despite my bugaboos, theres still a lot to like about it, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Also
SPOILER: show

gonna be pissed if Rey doesn't get a double bladed sabre in the final movie. She's been fighting with a staff her whole life, IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE

Shisen Kopf 12-15-2017 10:30 AM

Movie sucked balls. Don't waste your time if you haven't seen it

Ezra 12-15-2017 01:05 PM

Total lies. Great movie.

Fignuts 12-15-2017 11:12 PM

Honestly, the more I think about it, the more things I find to dislike.

I'm exactly the same. The more time passes since I saw it, the more I'm just totally unimpressed and finding things that didn't make sense.

McLegend 12-16-2017 11:11 AM

I like it. I really liked the force awakens after I saw it, and gradually liked it less. I'll see how it goes with this movie.

McLegend 12-16-2017 11:13 AM

However it seems online people really fucking hate it.

Savio 12-16-2017 11:28 AM

Does this feel like a copy of Empire strikes back? That was my problem with "Force Awakens"

McLegend 12-16-2017 11:36 AM

I would say no.

McLegend 12-16-2017 11:59 AM

There are some similarities don't get me wrong, but it's not nearly like Empire Strikes back 2.0.

Simple Fan 12-16-2017 04:58 PM

I liked it but not as much as Force Awakens.

Destor 12-16-2017 05:15 PM

Loved it...

Destor 12-16-2017 05:16 PM

Only thing that was bad was the leah scene...you know which one

Agreed, I was cussing Disney as it felt just like a Marvel movie where they kill off the villain too early. Was intrigued by Snoke because we knew nothing of him and now he's dead and we still don't

Lock Jaw 12-16-2017 05:26 PM

Really enjoyed the movie. There are a bunch of flaws, sure, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it.

Destor 12-16-2017 05:48 PM

Already @220 mil

McLegend 12-16-2017 06:54 PM

Has there ever been a movie that had great reviews, but was kind of hated by people like this one?

I love how there is good size portion of people who are all like "Get back your franchise, George!" :lol:

Lock Jaw 12-16-2017 07:05 PM

Haven't heard of anybody hating it

Simple Fan 12-16-2017 07:12 PM

I liked it but it didn't live up to my expectations and I think that's what most feel as well. Was good but fell short in places and I didn't leave feeling as good about it as I did Force Awakens. No way its worse than the prequels though.
