>they go to the effort of giving Kylo Ren his own personal TIE fighter in the movie
>he uses it for a grand total of two seconds and that's it
They do all this stuff to copy the OT but don't seem to realize that the stuff from the OT actually has screentime.
don't forget his final EPIC SHOWDOWN with master luke skywalker, where he swings a couple times, misses, and the fight ends.
TLJ had the best laser sword fights and space battles out of any star wars movie!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111
>some random TIE fighter blows up the entire bridge of the Mon Calamari cruiser
>"LET'S JUST KEEP SHOOTING AT THEM WITH OUR PUNY LASERS THAT DON'T GO THROUGH THEIR SHIELD FOR 8 HOURS!"
Don't forget the le epic villain snoke
time wasted on the casino plot fucked absolutely anything good in this movie
It's just another cool toy to sell, no one cared about screentime, some basic logic or whatever.
It'll probably get more use in the next movie. I hope.
What cool toys even come from the casino plot?
>They do all this stuff to copy the OT
No. They do it to sell plastic toys to manchildren
Frankly I don't give a single fuck about seeing this anorexic TIE Interceptor reappear anyway. Literally all of the "new" designs are just "Let's take something from the OT and make it almost the same but pointier."
>guys what if we took the body of vader's tie fighter but we threw on an edgier version of the TIE interceptors solar arrays
>We'll never see a Y-Wing or Tie-Bomber again because normies don't recognize them to buy toys
>We'll forever see X-Wings vs Tie Fighters blowing up cruisers
DUDE TOYS LMAO
Of course, no one wants to buy toys from "deconstructive" and "subversive" films that eschews world building. There's no magic
It's weird that I'm uninterested in any toy of TLJ but now that TLJ is out I'm actually considering going back and buying a toy of FN-2199. Because at least he is fucking awesome.
>implying that the Supreme Leader will use a tiny tie fighter in the next movie.
You autists are really trying right? Haha have fun being left behind with your prequels while we enjoy the future.
*sigh* White people.
It's just another merchandise thing at this point.
Why didn't Vader use his again after ANH?
Which is dumb. I have a ton of merchandise of the A-Wing because it's an awesome ship that did awesome things in the movie it was in. What would compel me to buy this knockoff Interceptor?
Because it didn't work so well the first time so he was like "Meh, not risking my life on this shit again." Like, literally, he almost died in the battle of Yavin.
Toys.
>Implying the casino plot wasn't about the big eared horses aka more toy sales
i shiggy diggy
To be fair, Darth Vader had his own TIE fighter in episode IV that he only used for a minute or so, then never flew anything again.
That actually felt like a scene from the PT, RotS in particular. As Vader, Anakin never tried spinning. During the opening of RotS, he did. Kylo does the same to evade a laser barrage. It's shot the same way.
>As Vader, Anakin never tried spinning.
He didn't try, but he ended up spinning out of control after being hit by the Milennium Falcon at the end of ANH
The film left me with so many Frodos.
Like, if flying at lightspeed was more effective than the Death Star, how come the Rebels didn't set up a kamikaze fleet and wipe out the whole First Order? They stole that bit from Prometheus btw
Or, why didn't the tactical mastermind admiral just shield the escaping ships with her cruiser that still had effective shields on, instead of sitting and watching the pretty explosions for 20 minutes?
>make his tie fighter as edgy as possible
