It would make more sense if Plageus did that as oppose to Palpatine, considering the Opera House conversation. I don't know how I feel about that, but ultimately I don't think it matters. I doubt the LFSG is going to hold a writer/director to that interpretation if they wanted to go in a different direction.
I think the line of thinking is that Plageius figured it out, Palpatine learned it from him then killed him, then he created Anakin to be his eventual weapon.
So does that mean Palpatine was always planning on using Anakin? How does that work with Obi Wan seemingly picking Tatooine at random in TPM, when the Queen's ship suddenly needed a fuel stop. I guess the Jedi just happened upon him and brought him back to Coruscant before Palpy could go there himself and get him. That makes about as much sense as anything else in the prequels.
maybe. I think he didn't intend on the Jedi finding Anakin and that's why he picked a slave on a backwater world who shouldn't ever cross paths with them, but the light side had its own ideas. I assume he intended to eventually get Anakin and train him, but the Jedi beat him to it. I don't think the Sith have any qualms about beginning training when older like the Jedi do.
Just finished TLJ rewatch Made me pumped for what comes next and hopefully a lot of other new material that expands the galaxy
That armor just has me wondering. She’s already survived one assumed death. And not that the movies necessarily hold completely true to the character in the books, but she is known as a survivor.
She could very well be alive. In fact, knowing her character, and that armor, she probably is. BUT, having her seemingly die again only to come back again would like be fucking terrible.
What a waste of what could have been a great mini boss. Her hunting Finn could have been a great plot thread in TLJ. That's my only significant complaint about the movie.
Sure, but RO nor any other movie would look so good without all the innovations ILM made for Ep. 1. Also, Ep. 1 came out before and was in development years before PS2. This is a stupid post.
my bigger issue is that one shows actual Star War and the other is a slapstick routine out of a Saturday morning cartoon. That Naboo battle was one of the biggest letdowns of TPM for me after having seen the trailers with all the foreboding shots and music only to have brainless unintimidating robots fighting clumsy floppy eared comedy relief.
Adults I like Rogue One because it's actually made to appeal to adults. Children like Episode 1 because the rest of the Star Wars movies are made for children.
I know that's the common theory, but ANH and ESB and parts of ROTJ are decidedly more adult/made for everyone than anything that followed. The "made for kids" thing really started with the ewoks and progressed from there. Lucas changed, as was his right.
I love all my children equally. Spoiler: earlier that day *takes drink* "I don't care for Attack of the Clones"
HOW DARE YOU. AotC is the best of the prequels just for giving 13 Canes Natalie Portman in skin tight spandex
Watching it a third time recently revealed to me how much more I liked the last 95% of the movie more than the opening. The queen alien sewer slug was prequel-y
I thought it was a perfectly cromulent movie that only occasionally stirred any emotion out of me. The only thing I actively disliked was that Solo was named by a rando imperial. It would have been so easy for Han to answer the "who are you with?" question with "no one, I'm solo." and for the Imperial to mistake that as his name. The only parts I really loved involved Lando, who I thought stole the show. The rest was just...there, neither offensive nor enthralling.
Pretty sure it was a remnant of the Lord and Miller part of the production. It was a larger scene with that imperial and another. Tag and Bink. They hold a special place in the EU as two Imperials who happened to be humorously in everyajor scene of the movies.
Nah. It would have done great if it came out this Christmas like the rest of the movies have. It would have done great, but not record breaking numbers.
It wouldn't have bombed, that's for sure. It'd probably have pulled in 600 or 700mm which would have been good enough not to have so much reshuffling behind the scenes at Lucasfilm. Whether it's good that we've had that reshuffling or not, time will tell.
Watched Solo a week or so ago on Amazon. Very few complaints as it was. Pretty distant from what I expected based off 40 years of my own imagination but a solid movie.
the whole movie was that way. The story was written as a bunch of fan service moments strung together. That’s not to say I didn’t enjoy it and now that all the fan service is out of the way, if they were to do a sequel it could be something great
It’s so much fun. Sure, it’s not how I imagined those pieces of th story ever came about, but it’s just a fun adventure.
I will say it’s a bit of a bummer that we probably won’t get another outing of Ehrenreich as younger Han
Im more disappointed we wont get to dive deeper into Kira/Maul/Crimson Dawn and Enfys Nest (sp) and her group. Hopefully in a book at least.
I’m the other way, but to each their own And to me the Enfys character design screams for a comics artist to draw her
