Partner's somehow managed to book Star Wars on Monday evening... on a sofa seat in a decent local cinema.
Yaaay.
I was entirely non-plussed about going (haven't seen the last one yet) but seeing as she's done all the legwork and surprised me, well why not?
- If by last one you mean Force Awakens (and not Rogue One) I strongly suggest you watch it before Monday!spl33nidoru
- I meant Rogue One - besides, Force Awakens is on Netflix so we'll revisit beforehand anyway :)detritus
- Cool :) you can watch Rogue One anytime, preferably when craving the Star Wars universe after a long break, as it's very (too?) familiar.spl33nidoru

"Lucasfilm is excited to announce that Johnson will create a brand-new Star Wars trilogy, the first of which he is also set to write and direct, with longtime collaborator Ram Bergman onboard to produce"
- he's either a compliant puppet or ep8 is amazing.fadein11
- I hope he's allowed to work the way Nolan did on Batman, with a personal project between each 3. Risks creative exhaustion doing 'em all at oncecolin_s
- ^ hope not there was only 1.5 great batman films!mugwart
- amazing! good on him.inteliboy
- After Batman Returns, what's the other 0.5?face_melter
- mugwart: yeah but nolan is a bit overrated in general.colin_s
- Batman begins was amazing, 2nd Batman was sort of okay (the half good film). 3rd was dire.
I will say from workon on his films - he empolys the best productionmugwart - crew. Thats his strength and value to the industrymugwart
- Begins was cool. DK was a triumph. Rises was cool but a bit of a letdown after peak batsysince1979
- jeez, the 9th movie isn't even in production and theyre announcing the NEXT series? yuckdorkKn1ght

- Ooooh luke vs rey and she trashes him.since1979

Reminds me of Goodfellas, "Fuck you, pay me", which they will of course.
Disney makes a bigger ask of theaters than ever before with The Last Jedi
- how much money do those Disney fuckers need? greedy wankers.inteliboy
- yup - "fuck you, pay me"fadein11
- how much money do you think they need? who's to say how much is too much and what 'morality' are we judging them with? I only ask because I think of other...PonyBoy
- ...consumable goods (ag: clothing) and often hear scoffs at say the price of shoes (runs over to the sneakers thread). I rarely see anyone bitching about what..PonyBoy
- ...a pair of high end tennies goes for when it comes to making sure your wardrobe is well-rounded.PonyBoy
- My point: if 'you're' a fan and it means that much to you then get the fuck over it... Disney is just "making sure your wardrobe is well-rounded"... right?PonyBoy
- *often DON'T hear scoffsPonyBoy

Looks pretty good. I feel like there is a lot of misdirection going on in that trailer. They are making plot points appear a certain way through editing, but will not actually play out like that.
- you think?hans_glib
- so certain you are?sofakingback
- AbsolutelyMondoMorphic
- even rogue one had sound bytes that didnt appear in the film so theres that toosince1979
- I pointed it out bc there are TONS of people bitching on youtube that there are too many spoilers in this trailer. i dont think there is ANY spoilers.CygnusZero4
- its all snoke and mirrorsCygnusZero4
- It's not going to go the way you THINK!jtb26

- fuck that shitty rabbithans_glib
- Pikachu makes his Hollywood debut...Bullitt
- No one learned their lessons after Ewoks and Jar-Jar-Fucking-Bink... did they?Continuity
- It's a kids movie. Kids loved Ewoks, kids loved jar-jar. All these cute little furballs do is remind infantdults they're too old to take this shit too seriouslydetritus
- That said, don't think I cringe in horror every time I see Jar-Jar pop up.detritus
- i really do wish they went ahead with the whole 'darth jar jar thing...would have been the ultimate 'wtf' moment...exador1
- they look too animated to me, making them really stand out as cgi. i wont write them off yet though. plus, it IS a kids movie first and foremost.CygnusZero4

- Lovely texture, but what a complete waste of time.detritus
- Is it this specific work or fan art in general you're speaking of, D?MondoMorphic
- why waste of time?inteliboy
- Sorry, I just find it utterly mundane; like, literally a waste of effort.detritus
- Haha. You should be an art teacher.Hayzilla
- Those that can, do - those that can't..
:)detritus - iWood waste my time like thismoldero
- looks amateur to me. photoshop'd, not actually painted. looks too fake imoCygnusZero4
- Fucking hell boys. I'd be petrified to show my work here if that is amateur and a waste of time.Hayzilla
- Of course it's not fucking painted, Jesus.
As I say, it's very well-made — they should've just spent awhile more thinking about WHAT they were makingdetritus - removing the person fighting the penis statue would helpbjladams
- waste of time lol - it's just a series of illustrations commissioned by IMAX on run up to the film - it's not even from Disney. Who fucking cares? It's nicelyfadein11
- done and yep it most definitely is digital but who cares?fadein11
- It's very impressive.Hayzilla
- Apparently you care, 'LOL'. I just see loads of 'second market' movie posters like this, well-rendered, but zero concept and paint by numbers thinking.detritus
- I like it yep - so much terrible SW art out there I liked its style - blow it up big and you may see the detail more. But at the end of the day it's justfadein11
- marketing for the big movie release of the year so not really a waste of time to those getting v.rich off it.fadein11

Fired directors:
Phil Lord and Chris Miller removed from the Han Solo Film
https://www.theguardian.com/film…
Colin Trevorrow removed from Episode 9
https://www.theguardian.com/film…Josh Trank was fired from the Boba Fett movie
https://www.theguardian.com/film…Arguably Josh Trank should have been fired, as there was nothing but bad news from the Fantastic 4 set
- No opinion on Lord & Miller, but Trevorrow and Trank should never have been attached in the first place.e-wo
- and whats wrong with trevorrow? hes clearly a very capable director. thats exactly the types they are looking for with these new movies.CygnusZero4
- personally I'm glad tervorrow was axed. jurassic world was awful.colin_s
- Bluejam3
- oh nicecolin_s
- Do I see AT-ATs?Hayzilla

YES YES YES YES YES
total faith in rian johnson
- there is no way the studio will give him any room to be good. Haven't you seen that they've fired 3+ directors over creative differences.robotinc
- Too much money to be made to allow room for artrobotinc
- said he had free reigninteliboy
- who are the 3 directors they fired?sofakingback
- he said he had control, and it was his script as wellcolin_s
