I liked the idea Mark had for Luke's entrance in TFA.
Noah Jones
Threadly teminder that TLJ was shit and katheleen kennedy and rian johnson need to be torn apart and beaten within an inch of their lives
Aaron Sanchez
It wasn't kino and I'm a bit sad.
Adam Thompson
I'd be fine with that but with the way the current EU is going we're never going to get some decent books. They're just lazy cashgrabs between movies.
I mean seriously, what was the big book tie-in for TLJ? Fucking Phasma? It was so
Brody White
>Supreme Leader
Andrew Jones
there were kino moments
but overall it was not kino
Justin Young
...
Jack Perez
Reminder Jango Fett is superior to Boba and Chode Phasma.
Fact.
Adrian Torres
bad
Austin Lopez
yes
William Nelson
Please elaborate, my man
Aaron Sanders
He got into a fucking fistfight with Obi-Wan. For that, he will always have my respect.
Jacob Wood
Will JJ save Star Wars again and get back the normies love Rian lost? I'm sure if JJ wasn't so busy with other movies Disney would probably give him a new trilogy to direct
Caleb Parker
There was nothing fundamentally wrong about the middle one and you know it. Hangers are open space and flying through it at that speed is not an issue.
Austin Barnes
It is a good lesson because everyone has to learn it at some point in life. You will lose some day. Some day you will fall down and be broken. It happens even to Jedi. But when that happens you shouldn't wallow in self pity and hate yourself for your failure, you should use it as a learning experience and promise to make tomorrow a better day.
Adrian Torres
Only kino moments I remember was hyperspace kamakazi and the not ATAT stand off.
The Falcon canyon was nice too, that part I liked but may be nostalgia.
William Baker
>normies lost user, you can't be this foolish
Ethan Jackson
>kino
I want this meme to end, GOD DAMN1
Landon Turner
i miss the Luke from Legends. Well maybe not from near the end
Jackson Peterson
I don't have the link, but basically I think he comes out of hiding because of Leiax he sees Han's death and is too late to stop it, and then shows up and force grabs Anakin's lightsaber from the snow.
Easton Rivera
>but may be nostalgia. Of course it was, since Williams forced it on you with reusing the theme from ROTJ
Bentley Harris
Kino post, my dude, VERY kafkaesque if I dare say
Liam Walker
Most likely that Mark thought Luke would be the one to pull his lightsaber out of the snow and fight Ben, rather than Rey doing it.
Austin Diaz
First time in one of these threads since watching TLJ, loved it. Do people here hate it because it was good or love it because Reddit hates it?
Josiah Harris
So we're all prepared for Lando and Chewie getting killed in the Falcon in the most humiliating and pathetic way for Episode 9, right? It'll probably be a post-credit scene where they're just doing maintenance and the whole thing blows up in their face
John Morgan
Name 5
Isaac Wood
What's the Sup Forums opinion on The Last Jedi?
Juan Collins
>you should use it as a learning experience and promise to make tomorrow a better day. that's contingent upon you not literally dying, which is just about all the resistance manages to do, teaching kids to accept failure happy as you rush headlong into a meatgrinder is puerile
Tyler Martinez
Luke could barely stand seeing a saber again after that time he shacked up with a random widow and her kid ignited Luke's lightsaber through his own forehead.
Samuel Gutierrez
Would've been improved by including the Vong
Austin Cook
People hate it because it was bad.
Ethan Perez
I mean when I first saw VII I legit thought that could happen given the lack of Luke during the movie, shit would have been very based
Evan Martinez
This was before that was written
Joseph Davis
There's nothing fundamentally wrong with anything in that image.
Kevin Bell
It was the only 'fun' part within the sea of being sad cuz X or a twist reveal.
Joshua Evans
But user, Snoke IS the Vong! The first to arrive, utilizing their advanced bio-science to simulate Force abilities. What, you thought he was injured to get that fucked up? No, my friendo, that was Vong ritual self fucking-up.
Connor Russell
Does death matter to a Jedi? And the reason the Resistance is so tiny at the end of the movie is because Poe refuses to learn this lesson of accepting failure and retreat as an option and pushes on to the point that he nearly destroys the entire Resistance. If he had accepted weakness and retreat the Resistance would have survived to be much larger at the end of the film.
Austin Rogers
It took the Resistance lots of sacrifices until they learned that they should do that whole not-dying thing that Rose applied towards Finn.
Ayden Torres
>hyperspace kamikaze >Luke clowning on the First Order >Rey in the infinite mirror >Yoda's whole scene >Jackie Chan
Caleb Stewart
I wish it wasn't the way it was.
Austin Allen
The Last Jedi was unironically kino
Nathan Roberts
Wrong. Mark needed an elaborate backstory for Luke in order to properly get into character for his less-than-a-minute frown stare at Rey in TFA. This is fact.
Logan Rodriguez
I think Rian put the drama of his own movie above staying true to the legacy characters. He wanted things to shake out in a certain way, and forced Luke into a position that suited the narrative he was writing, rather than be respectful of Luke's journey in the OT.
>"The three flashbacks were a late addition - One of the last things that went into the script before we started shooting. It’s similar to Rashomon, but the actual story motivation was that I wanted some harder kick to Rey’s turn: ‘You didn’t tell me this.’ I wanted some harder line that was crossed - a more defined thing that we could actually see - between Luke and Kylo. I didn’t want to do a big flashback. So one flashback that you repeat three times but that’s just one moment seemed more right. Ultimately, the only one who lies is Luke, in the very first flashback, where he omits the fact that he had a lightsaber in his hand. Kylo is basically telling the truth about his perception of that moment." - Johnson

Kevin Cox
They really have no idea what to do with Phasma. I hope she stays dead.
Michael King
>snoke theory fags
Colton Ramirez
Was Phasma in TLJ? Did they give her the character and screentime they promised she would get in TFA?
Ian Green
I don't recall any epic ladder based combat, user. Explain.
Eli Kelly
Yes. No.
Leo White
Thanks JJ
Angel Richardson
She had two scenes and died a Disney death. Less screen time and lines than in TFA
Carson Hall
True.
Chase Howard
Phasma shall never die! Her armor is so super awesome she'll survive the destruction and rocket around in ship mode while screaming "TRAITOR" at the very stars themselves.
Julian Peterson
>the lesson of TLJ is to accept the no-win scenario and roll over and die
Jose Phillips
Why did they hype her up as a main character in the new trilogy then?
Lincoln Smith
>"Pass on what you have learned. Strength, mastery. But weakness, folly, failure also. Yes, failure most of all. The greatest teacher, failure is." >the hyperspace jump >"The Rebellion is reborn today. The war is just beginning. And I will not be the last Jedi." >final shot with the kid >Kylo making red 'blood' marks on the ground of Crait while Luke doesn't leave footprints
Julian Ramirez
You're welcome.
Brandon Evans
That's the good thing. If they want and need it, she can easily return. She wears blaster-proof armor, after all, so her armor can withstand heat well (except for that part that has been knocked off).
Dylan Bell
So we might have gotten a version where Luke straight up tries to kill Kylo and lies about it to Rey?
Also did we ever get any sort of confirmation as to what Kylo saw in the dark side that made him want to turn? Was it just generic "power to take over the galaxy" shit?
Luke Brown
No one ever hyped Phasma up as a main character. People hyped themselves up when they saw her armor.
Noah Gonzalez
>The Rebellion is reborn today >kino
Fuck off. Nobody likes the fact that we're back to square one with Rebels vs Empire but this time the Empire doesn't have an Emperor and the Rebels' Mon Mothma is going to die off-screen between movies.
Fuck Rebellion stories. We should be done with that by now.
Camden Reyes
Kennedy and JJ said she would play major role in the trilogy. They marketed her a ton.
Jordan Thomas
learn your memes, son
Jason Collins
Still better then tfa
Isaiah Carter
there isn't even a rebellion, its a dozen Marlboro men and some poultry against nu-jacen
Adam Bailey
>People hyped themselves up when they saw her armor.
No, it was all the media publications and Disney pushing this super badass female character, only for her to turn out to be the comedic relief.
Kayden Bennett
This time, the Empire's Emperor is the Darth Vader who succeeded at killing the Emperor to become the Emperor.
Luis Ross
The entire trilogy ao far is guilty of that
Joshua Myers
>[Lucasfilm President Kathleen] Kennedy has big plans for Phasma and confirmed that the captain will carry on into the next movie. “She’s an important character, a baddie in the best sense of the word.”
Adam Edwards
>Phasma's armor is made from the hull of Sheev's personal ship >turns out they included the engines too
I can dig it. This means she'll be in perfect Iron Man form to chase Poe as he destroys the Starkiller II weapon in Episode IX.
Asher Jackson
As someone who liked TFA, I really did not like Last Jedi. >>Casino plot took forever and didn't go anywhere >>Snoke, Phasma, Rei's parents, how'd they get Anakin's Lightsaber were all pointless. >>Too many moments of a character with a slingshot taking down an army. >>The entire resistance fits on the Falcon. >>Too many themes that didn't mesh well.
I just did not like this because this film pretty much guarantees that Episode 9 has no legs to stand on. Especially since Hux and Kylo are the last villains.
John Gutierrez
Will they fuck?
Bentley Adams
The Empire's Emperor is a spoiled brat who can't control his autism
Nolan Stewart
objectively, subjectively and metaphysically incorrect.
Brayden Thomas
Jackie "Ladder Factory" Chan is a meme, son.
Jonathan Gutierrez
That too, of course.
Christian Carter
I hope so.
Cooper Price
>People hyped themselves up when they saw her armor.
Can you blame me and others tho?
Hudson Rivera
That's a fucking No Man's Sky level lie!
Eli Powell
3/5
Sorry user, you gotta retake this course.
Owen Cooper
I didn't like TFA at all, found TLJ to be markedly better in every way, and I still think TLJ is a flaming pile of dog shit.
I've said this before and I'll say it again: JJ Abrams put Star Wars in the toilet Rian Johnson flushed
I used to believe that TFA could be retroactively rendered good by episodes 8 and 9 being so phenomenal as to make TFA excellent, instead Rian shat all over JJ's abortion resulting in competing piles of shit.
Cameron Harris
Probably ontop of Chewie after he gets turned into a fur carpet
Bentley Green
Name 10 things that aren't Jackie Chan
Kevin Flores
I hope not
Christopher Bailey
What? She got to party with Finn one last time and set him up for a quip. How much more important did you NEED than that?
Benjamin Long
Hopefully, it's the only reason I want to watch IX.
Lucas Bailey
>>Wealthy people are evil >>You should have elected Hillary
Why is it that whenever a Republican takes the white house, all media becomes preachy as shit?
Jackson Foster
If Kyller Ben's sexy upper body didn't sway Rey to the Ben side, then nothing ever will.
Christian Williams
people have been railing against the MIC since the 60s
Brody Green
TFA and TLJ will age poorly.
John Baker
It's all I want in IX. If Ben lives, is redeemed, and becomes Reylo then the film will be a success. Think I'll be happy, Sup Forums?
Kayden Smith
The Last Jedi visual dictionary hasn't been uploaded to the MEGA yet. Anyone have it?
Carson Taylor
If they're smart they won't do a big spacebattle "rebels versus empire" thing and instead do a very character focused movie based on Kylo and Rey dealing with their force shit. The empire is being run by an unqualified man baby and the rebels are down to like a dozen people. It needs to be very character focused for it to work.
Landon Williams
Everything pre man's discovery of the ladder, user. Boom, simple.
The real question is did Jackie Chan pop into being when the first ladder was invented, or was it the other way around?
Kayden Rogers
So nothing's changed?
Henry Rogers
learn your memes, son
Luis Roberts
...
Jack Martinez
The /swco/ mega cannot withstand Disney attention of that magnitude!
Chase Thomas
A huge dissapointment in a lot of aspects but still better than TPM and ATC
Levi Gomez
They've both aged poorly already, and in 10 years people will not look upon them fondly at all. They won't even have the benefit of a satisfying conclusion now that they've thrown all chances for that out the window.
