    Yes. I think it’s considered one of if not the best anime movie ever. Rumors of a live action have been floating around for years. Nolan was attached to it at one point

    Not sure you are in the right thread to be making this statement. Taika would kill a Star Wars film.

    We don’t need a live action anime adaptation, much less of the goat anime.

    although it would greatly upset the weeabs which I would consider a form of sustenance

    Compared to you guys, I'm the most casual SW fan there is. I saw 4 (and prob 5 and 6) in the theater when they were released. I've only seen bits and pieces of 1-3. Wasn't really interested after the reviews that I saw. So, I was skeptical when I decided to watch 7.

    <freezing cold take>I was very pleasantly surprised with how good the casting was for Rey/Kylo. IMO, those casting decisions bought them a lot of good will with fans. The early depictions of Kylo in 7 are a terrific follow up to Vader. I've seen 8, and I think would rather have seen the writers keep the line b/w good and evil (Rey & Kylo) more distinct and clear. Maybe a good ole redemption story for Kylo thru Han and/or Leia. Maybe keep Rey an orphan (or whatever) who has found her home in the force without being related to Palpatine. I know there is clearer resolution to those questions in 9. Haven't seen it yet.</freeziing cold take>

    Enjoy all the commentary...

    There’s a 2-3 video set on YouTube about rewriting the prequels that’s fun. Centers around obi wan.

    I agree and the Disney trilogy would've been more cohesive story wise by not retconning TLJ. TLJ is so terribly bad though.

    Fwiw, as we were just talking about Clone Wars, Binge Mode has their two and a half hour episode on the series/movie out.

    So, I've always wondered but never seen an answer. Why is the Clone Wars so out of order normally? Is that how it aired or did people just come up with an order they find better?

    Before anyone posts some bs, (in my opinion) false rumors are being spread about Kenobi project being cancelled. I don't believe it. They've seen the success of Mando, they're not about to scrap something in the same vein.

    It just feels weird to like #’d Star Wars so much. I can live with the first part being average to great because the last hour and a half is so great.
