    This one will pretty much be the deciding factor on how the anthology films will do. Rogue one was good. Still flawed, not great but entertaining. Is this next one is a stinker the rest will follow suit like garbage ass Last Jedi

    Not that excited for the Solo movie tbh. There are 1,000 more interesting stories they could tell than 12 parsecs, Chewies life debt and winning the falcon. I'm sure it will be enjoyable but I'd rather have a Thrawn movie or something.

    I'd love an Obe Wan movie but there isn't much of that story left to tell. Old man Ben on Tattoine isn't gonna be much of an exciting story either.

    The stand alone movies can all have their own tone, pace and feel to them and it will make no difference. It's too jarring to change all of that in a trilogy though. It would be better if they didn't have different directors working on movies in the same trilogy. TFA set so many new pieces in place just to have TLJ do fuck all with them. The two films just don't feel like they fit together.

    They needed a Kevin Feige to keep it all cohesive.

    It just seemed like the biggest thing TLJ tried to do was undo everything that TFA set up at every turn.

    Big climax handing over light saber to Luke -throws it away haha 
    Luke training Rey - Only on where green milk comes from 
    Why did Maz have the light saber? - who cares have a casino scene instead 
    Vader type mask for Kylo (love or hate it) - Get rid of it pointlessly
    Emperor type Snoke - dead with no backstory 
    Ben Solo turned on Luke - Nope it was Luke the whole time lol 
    Rey's parents - buncha nobodies psyched u out

    Instead of using one movie to make the other stronger and more coherent, they made them both worse and no left no clear path for the third to follow. It will be interesting to see how much of this , if any, will get cleaned up in the 3rd movie.

    They went back and made changes to the OT to make it flow better, and now that's how everyone remembers it.

    The original Emperor for example


    Perhaps this trilogy will get the same treatment some day.

    Yeah basically Rian Johnson pissed all over what JJ did which is stupid because JJ is doing the next one. So will JJ have to fix this mess or will he just roll with it?

    We have 2 years to sit and speculate.

    Fuck you Han shot first

    Damn right he did. It was never even a question.

    Correction:
    Han ONLY shoots. I have the theatrical versions on bluray and have been watching them. Greedo doesnt shoot at all. Han just murders him and walks away.

  • DimeDime Posts: 10,239 destroyer of motherfuckers
    Exactly. There's not even a debate. No one shot first because Han was the only one that took a shot. Idk I'd like to see an Obi-Wan movie just because there have been rumors saying that Ewan McGregor would reprise the role and I fucking loved him as Obi-Wan. 
  • FIRENATHANIELHACKETTFIRENATHANIELHACKETT Posts: 35,453 spicy boy
    Jobe is right though. Obi Wan's story is done, his arc was complete. What other story do they have to tell involving him? 
  • DimeDime Posts: 10,239 destroyer of motherfuckers
    Yeah that's a good point. There's not much he could've really been up to while hiding in Tattooine. They played his story well in the prequels.

    I guess if we get a side story, I kinda wouldn't mind a film solely focused on the Palpatine era of the Sith. Or even an ancient Sith film about Darth bane, Nihilus, Sideous etc.

    Out of all the solo films they're talking about I'm only really interested in Yoda and Boba
