Official Star Wars Cinematic Universe Thread: Now Showing : Ep VIII - The Last Jedi (15 Dec)

[focus]

I don't get why the Star Wars prequel films get hate like they do. I understand the first movie was probably like *meh* to some people because a little kid was the lead of the movie and it was slow but a decent movie came out of it. Episodes 2 & 3 were the backbone of the prequels and you can damn near put them up there with the original films.

Co-sign. The Phantom Menace is absolute trash, but Clones and Sith are good movies. Just as good if not better than Return of the Jedi.

Force Awakens was pretty dope. Honestly, its just A New Hope remastered.

*never seen a Star Wars movie but somewhat interested in Force Awakens post*

Hahaha two of my coworkers saw it yesterday for free and they are upset,

Spoiler

they said they were mislead about Finn

Spoiler

They are upset he wasnt a Jedi or the main hero because Rey Saved the day and Finn ran away the whole movie, he was a slave.

I mentioned he may be force sensative but at this point Boyega was used to get African Americans to support the movie, very smart advertising because otherwise black people dont support star wars that strongly. If Black movies were making alot of money recently I dont think the trailers would of looked like they d

Finn was the real hero in the movie and there's hints of him being force sensitive.

Finn is Luke's son

Rey is some random broad

Finn is gonna give Rey the 8 in Epi 8

Hayden was fucking terrible in the prequels

Padme fucking sucked

The prequels told the story but sucked at it

Kylo ain't even finish training so I don't know how he's stronger than Vader like some of y'all are saying

Darth Maul survived

Finn is no way possible Mace's son, way too many years pass by from prequels to these 30 years after Return

Vader did more than kill kids... He killed off almost all the Jedi on his own as well as entire planets... Without the Death Star

Just saw it in IMAX 3D. Shit was live af. Loved how there was constant action and not long drawn out dialogue.

Definitely looking forward to the next one.

*First time ever watching a star wars movie*

 

[lamontbdc]

Spoiler

I bet Ray Luke Skywalker daughter

Yet people forget Billy Dee williams (hero) and James Earl Jones were main characters in the OG ones

And Sam Jackson was a big character in the the prequels.

Wtf these people on.

These niggas are cinema militants

Y'all remember the scene where Kylo was talking to Rey, and he was talking about Han feeling like a father figure to her, but she would be disappointed? Maybe she is Han and Leia's daughter. Luke don't strike me as the dude to risk some shit with the dark side over some pussy.

I think she either a Skywalker or kin to who ever Ren is

Ok so here we go........ @Sion , @VIBE , @Broddie ...tell me what you think

Spoiler

Finally some decent subtis came out for the cam torrent, so I went ahead and watch -- there's no captioned theatres near me so that my only recourse if I wanted to watch it

Now on the theories of mines ---

It's an ongoing theory that most folks think Finn might be related to Lando somehow.

Put I think --He might, but I'm not sure if he's Lando's son. Might be a family member kid related to one of Lando's siblings in one of the Empire camp...that would be a way that Vader also kept Lando in line at Bespin (Cloud City)

Since we know Abrams took from the old "EU" somewhat, here's an outrageous one I thought of, but sensible if you think about it -- What if Rey is Luke's kid BUT her mom would be Mara Jade? ....Except Mara won't be the "Emperor's Hand" in the SW sequel universe but somehow still is force sensitive?

Plasma will be back. If anything, I can see her going the Boba Fett route...

Snoke could be a clone of Palp. I mean the Clone Wars did set the precedent of having clones in the universe. What would be wilder if Snoke was a clone of Anakin.Could you imagine that shit?

Going back to Kylo, he's going full on bad. It's gonna be either Finn or Rey battling Kylo at the end.

Fuck, let's make my theory on Finn even wilder..........what if Lando and Mace are from the same family line as Finn...Mace would be the grandfather, Lando the father (but the force skip him over) , and Finn got the power of his grandfather. Remember ...the branch tree of the force that Mace studied is surprisingly powerful because it teeters to the edge of the dark side, which when you think about it...it the balance to the force
