I am secure enough to admit I teared up during this scene.
Yes, but was also my nickname in the Corps... I was the youngest of 4 siblings who all went A&M and a Star Wars fan... so Episode IVBrian Earl Spilner said:
Is your username a reference to ANH? I've always wondered.

C'mon people. So tried of seeing this. The only reason y'all say that is because there was lots of space battle 'splosions with X-Wings and Darth Vader killed some dudes with his lightsaber. Are y'all really going to put action (albeit good action) over genuine meaningful moments from the OT? Just having the binary sunset in IV, and the confrontation between Luke and the Emperor in VI, puts those movies way above R1, imo. (I'm assuming you're putting Empire first.)
As if the underlying story of redemption and sacrifice mean nothing. As if Rogue One doesn't enhance the viewing of - and doesn't give extra meaning to - Episode Four.
It's not just about 'splosions. If you're tired of seeing it then you can hop off the thread. No one will miss you, I promise.

The right answer is the most simple answer.
This new trilogy sucks. Period.
It's terribly written across the board. Let's just put the characters and the story to the side. And they suck.
The criticism is legitimate. The OT made it painfully obvious what the state of the galaxy is/was. The new trilogy does not. What else can be said.
I will be in the theater for Ep9 no matter what, and sincerely hope JJ pulls it off, but this has been mostly a disaster so far.
PS - Rogue One is the second best SW movie of all time. Solo is good. thanks

I guess I just watch these movies for different reasons compared to most y'all.
Join the club, pal. I got plenty of shrines all over the place.Render said:Belton Ag said:I'm equally tired of seeing the pretentious, arrogant dismissal of people who do think Rogue One was a good movie as a bunch of mouth breathers that like 'splosions.Quote:

I could leave the thread, but I would miss you, and that's the problem. You see, I have a shrine built to Belton Ag and each time he graces us with a new utterance I quickly print it out and nail it to my shrine wall. Then I pray to it everyday for strength and guidance, kinda like how Kylo Ren prays to Vader's helmet.

Dammit if TLJ didn't vacuum away all unearned enthusiasm I may have once granted to a Star Wars film on trust of the franchise.

Don't want to get spoiled but are Skywalker pickups going to be as awesome and as limited as the Columbia parkas were? Or more like the low energy "rogue one" Nissans?
Thank god for that website because TheForce.net seems to be mostly a corporate shill that belatedly posts scoops from other sites.TCTTS said:
Seems to line up with a lot of Making Star Wars' scoops as well...

Yeah, it being the first Death Star doesn't make a lot of sense for all of the theories previously discussed. If there was something important on it, you'd think the emperor would have retrieved it himself or had Vader do it.
