Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi

Did not take the day off, but going to see it at 7PM tonight. Love going to these premiers to see all the NERDS cheer at C-3PO and shit.... and then contain my inner excitement for all thing star wars.

But for real, It's hilarious to go with all the fans dressed up and such. Quite the experience.

I have watched this video about a 1000 times!

Darth Vader: "This button helps me to breathe."
Triump: "And which button calls for your parents to come and pick you up?"

Triump:" Hey look what I found, a real girl! Darling, you pretty much have your choice of guys who don't know how to please you!"
Girl: "Pretty much!"

I'm not taking off, but I am going to see it tomorrow night at 10pm, and then I'm going back and watching it again the next night. I already have my tickets for both events.

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi

OK guys. What did you think? Anybody go see it yet? I saw it twice this weekend. One of my friends absolutely loved it. A few of my friends said they were a bit disappointed. I still haven't made up my mind yet.

Sounds like the Kirk Cousins contract situation.

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi

I loved it.

As for the complaints, eh, whatever. The harshest critics are always the fans.

With 2 years of fan theories there were bound to be some left disappointed. They set themselves up for it. I liked that it took some chances and wasn't predictable.

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi

After reading some articles, good articles and bad articles on the movie, I think it's helped me to understand the writing of Rian Johnson a bit more. JJ Abrams will have Episode IX to tie everything in, so it will be interesting to see where Abrams takes the story that Johnson has left for him.

I won't get into any spoilers here until everyone has had a chance to watch the movie. I can say after a few days removed, I did very much enjoy Episode VIII. Heck, I think the original trilogy is the best thing to have ever happened to cinema, and I'm not a big fan of Return of the Jedi. Empire is my favorite by far. Which is OK, because the Star Wars story, as a whole, is awesome and the fact that the story can literally keep going on forever is even more awesome to consider!

Can't wait to raise my son up on Star Wars.

Finally saw it last night, tried going to a movie theater with reserved seating and luxury loungers(love those), but all the "good" seats were gone. Saw it in IMAX 3d instead. Was excellent all the way around

I did. The Last Jedi, you won't waste your time to watch it, actors are very cool, the scripts and action scenes are amazing

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi

Hate what they did to Luke Skywalker, the chase scenario and casino planet were stupid, really looks like Rian Johnson just did stuff to undermine what JJ Abrams was setting up. Hope the third movie makes up for it.

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi

This had to be the most disappointing movie in the series. I cringed and I never cringed. Last time I cringed was about 2 years ago when I pulled down some panties and this chick had a full-on hairy beav which hadn't scene a razor in awhile. That made me cringe.

But you know, I still...while cringing.

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi

More disappointing than the prequels? Talk about cringe worthy.

well that second one...attack of the clones...was effing terrible.


So far, Rogue One has been the best of 3.0.

But I thought this one was outstandingly poor. Director Rian Johnson showed why he didn't deserve the director title. Poor job fuck face
