Zero interest (foundation is shit, ep9 won't erase ep7/8), will torrent it so I can shit all over it. Fuck them and their dumpster fire franchise.

Looked like they were doing it on purpose, working together.

what I don't understand is why anyone would think having Ray go Galen Starkiller and get EVEN MORE powerful, would make anyone more interested in her.

Yeah, it looked like she was jumping either over or into the ship. JJ would definitely do a shot like that.

Why do people have to be so extreme. TLJ was an abomination, we can all agree. But at the same time there is some truth to people being idiots for wasting their time shitting on something they have no interest in.

Take shit at face value and make your own judgements. Flock mentality and sensationalism is rife. There is nothing wrong with despising ep 8 but still give ep 9 a chance as a fan of the franchise.

Something isn't always better than nothing, but in this case we knew we were getting a 3 pack here. 7 was ok, 8 was the worse in the entire franchise, so if 9 is also ok it will be a colossal disappointment but at the end of the day the sequels will had been somewhat of a success (commercially if nothing else) if the ending is meaningful and satisfying in whatever way it can be.

Abrams can pull this off IMO. I'm not expecting anything truly quality, but there is an entire franchise reputation on the line here. I think he will handle with care, so "ok" is the most likely outcome, not terrible like Rian Johnsons effort.

[/QUOTE]
We have history to go on, Star Wars shit the bed with ROTJ and now all they do is roll around in it. JJ Abrams has never made a good movie, he knows nothing of the franchises he is working on (Oh no Han is dead so Leia has to run right past fucking CHEWBACCA so she can comfort a complete stranger) and dont even get me started on the shit show he did with Star Trek...I mean that movie was nothing like any star trek I had ever seen...Star Wars was the action packed franchise with high speed chases and daring sabre duels, where as Star Trek was the thinking mans franchise, More character driven, more human stories...but nope now Star Trek is just pew pew bullshit too thanks to this fucking hack, so please tell me honestly why should I have ANY hope for episode 9?

It's a cool image, but how the fuck does a good fraction of an intact Death Star end up anywhere but Endor?

If the explosion blew it in the opposite direction with enough force to overcome Endor's gravitational pull it could wind up anywhere

Because Endor is a moon of a larger planet with a stronger gravitational pull?

Endor is the moon of the planet Endor, in the Endor star system, with the two suns Endor1 and Endor2.

I am not making that up.
but, I'm not sure what Qhue's poin was.

"how the fuck does a good fraction of an intact Death Star end up anywhere but Endor "

who claimed that was not Endor?

You mean the FOREST moon of Endor?
I mean I know there are clearings in forest, that just doesnt look like a forest moon to me.
Edit: Never mind, on further looking I guess that is a beach they are standing at...my bad

Qhue · Apr 13, 2019

My point was that if a good portion of the Death Star 2 made a quasi soft landing on Endor (any part of that system) it would have been gone over thoroughly by now.

Sevens · Apr 13, 2019

Isn't that exactly what Rey was doing first time we met her? Scrounging old wrecks for useful parts.

i would have no choice but to choose the FO. the Resistance is far too incompetent to ever be allowed any kind of power,

Empire, yes, First Order, no. Rebels or Resistance are both fags, however.

There's a reason you nerds are going to die alone and miserable. Sure they jacked up the SW series by not pre-constructing the story before producing the trilogy, but it's entertainment, and something to get our mind off our daily lives. Stop over-critiquing every aspect and either enjoy or can it. FFS children probably have a better time viewing this stuff because their imaginations are still fully functioning, not degraded by years of alcohol abuse or bitterness towards society.

Point considered.

Counterpoint: this shit just sucks.

Sometimes women are mean and ugly.

If that was a massive chunk of the death star. It's not been confirmed, but if it were. It would have a cataclysmic effect on impact.

iannis · Apr 13, 2019

A star destroyer crashing in the desert would have a greater effect than making a furrow too. Even if it slowly hovered down.

I'm ok with stars wars ignoring that kind of thing in order to deliver an interesting visual if it's used sparingly. the iconic twin suns setting over lukes ranch isn't very likely either. Looks really cool though. They're building around those though instead of using them as accents.

Can't blame them. It's been working great with comic book movies.

This wouldn't even make a top ten list of sins against the laws of physics in movies by JJ Abrams.

Most stars in the Universe are actually Binary stars
-With binary stars at their center, the Kepler-47 planets have two suns like Tatooine, the fictional home world of Luke Skywalker in the "Star Wars" universe. Kepler 47-c orbits within the habitable zone of its parent binary star. Its orbit is the largest yet found for a planet outside our solar system

Highly possible this can happen, Disney and Kunt Kennedy are beyond retarded.

This is exactly the kind of shit I would expect Disney and JJ to do. Its probably pretty accurate.

Completely devoid of any originality. Throw in some more crap from the OT for nostalgia points in a desperate attempt to get old fans into the the theater one more time (because all the new characters are shit and no one cares about them). Shallow, no character development, lots of matrixy action sequences that have not consequence or gravity to them (literally), meaningless story with multitude of plot holes.

elidib · Apr 13, 2019

yeah probably should spoiler that, as I also expect it to be completely true. fits wholeheartedly with the teaser sequences.

Here's a leaked still of the returned Mace Windu showing Rei the special thing that's going to save the universe.
