Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

[Godzilla@1989]

Daisy Ridley is not a good actress at all, but almost nobody would deliver a good performance of Rey due to the cringe writing and bad directing.

 

[Scarlett Johansson]

The next episode of the mandalorian adds their token female lead. I hope this doesnt kill the show immediately.

Bryce Dallas Howard directs it I think?

When is Ming Na appearing in Mandolorian?

 

[XYZpdq]

I can never unsee this... The way his mouth opens also feels so strange, like its CGI or something.

John Cena's mouth sorta does this too.



unrelated it's time for CHRISTMAS IN THE STARS

 

[Kiwi Lime Pie]

Also this whole age business bugs me. Yoda's species was supposed to be one of the more long lived ones, yet now they have that taken away from them by Orange Yoda who is probably 2000 or 4000 years old.

I think Maz Kanata is alleged to be approximately 1000 years old in Episode VII. As yet another example of wasted potential, they could have had her make a teasingly ambiguous comment that she knew of Yoda and the Jedi of the past. Alternatively, she could claim her knowledge of the past/Jedi is what led her to collect their relics such as Anakin's/Luke's lightsaber. Instead, we get yet another character who could have been interesting who instead is underdeveloped and poorly utilized. Heck, I believe her only appearance in Episode VIII was to say she was too busy to talk to our heroes and suggested they find their slicer dude at Casino Royale Canto Bight. What a waste of a new character who would surely have countless interesting stories to tell from her millennium of existence.

There's also been rumors that foreign parents have been giving their kids the alcoholic versions of this soymilk due to the fact that the only way to tell the two versions apart is the shape of the cups, which could get Disney in trouble.

A few years back, someone at a major league baseball game had no clue Mike's Hard Lemonade was an alcoholic drink and let his kid drink some. Someone else saw it, CPS got involved, took the kid into protective custody, and charged the father with abuse. I believe saner heads prevailed when it was determined that the incident was in fact an honest mistake (surprising since CPS rarely admits to mistakes or overreacting).

Hearing that foreigners are inadvertently giving their kids alcoholic drinks from Galaxy's Edge sounds scarily similar to that story. Let's just hope nothing bad comes out of this and Disney somehow realizes they need to better identify their alcoholic drinks to avoid any serious issues/fallout.

The Mandalorian is quietly attracting fans and Favreau is rebuilding a bridge that the Sequels had burnt. Suddenly:

Star Wars: The Last Jedi Director Rian Johnson Wants to Direct The Mandalorian Season 2 Episode

Rian Johnson is having a blast after Knives Out was released this month. But, Star Wars fever is [...]

comicbook.com

"Nice bridge you're building there. Be a shame if someone decided they wanted to subvert audience expectation in regards to bridges."

 

[ZMOT]

Ridley is an unironically bad actress so she deserves that.

doesn't really matter. a good director and script can do wonders. as retarded as the "hurr it's just star wars" deflection is, there's a certain truth to it - it's star wars, not shakespeare. OT/PT had plenty of camp and stilted acting, but didn't impact the movies that much (and in some form even enhanced them).

fuck, just have rey go dark side for longer than intended so she doesn't have to speak and emote as much. there, done. outside [current year] that's probably what would've happened.

You know something about that "They Fly Now" clip gave me weird vibes, and I think I figured out why...

not cgi, just a certain (without going full /pol/) heritage involved. or as the bbc calls it: digital blackface.

not to mention he ruined pacific rim 2 in the trailer already too. THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' ABOUT!

Ive been thinking, is mando actually the first thing that has been even moderatly liked since episode 7?

>since episode 7
>episode 7

I pick Twi'leks (since apparently they dont exist anymore to Disney) and they engage in hardcore pornography for 2 hours complete with top tier FX work and an original John Williams score . That'd get my ass in a seat faster than you could say lekku. Anything less and Disney can go fuck itself.

something else I found while looking for boyega image:

you are now aware even porn parodies put more effort and enthusiasm in star wars than the people working for the biggest entertainment company in the world.

Did that bitch just lick a lightsaber?

The latest virtue signal is that a terminally ill man from Waterlooville, Hampshire is getting an early screening in case he pops his clogs before it comes out for the rest of us.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-50589569

Imagine the salt and shrieking that would occur if he came out and said it sucked. Of course, that will never happen; the House of Mouse has no doubt got him to sign massive NDAs, non-disparagement clauses, no negative review clauses, if you spoil this we can sue your entire family for the next 18 generations, and so forth.

Didn’t the same thing happen with The Force Awakens?

 

[Creep3r]

Did that bitch just lick a lightsaber?

Yes. ZMOT's gif left out the part where Maul is just as scaroused by Talon's violent kink.

 

[ditto]

2019 has pretty much been the year of big nerd franchises ending. Game of Thrones, Kingdom Hearts, Star Wars, the MCU...I wonder what will the 2020s have in store for nerd culture.

I'm hoping that Joker will be the quintessential 20's movie the everyone will forget actually came out in 2019.

Hayden Christensen went back to the kind of indie stuff he was doing before. Although you wouldn't know it from Lucas's horrible directing, he is actually a good actor.

Shattered Glass works as unofficial prequel showing the corruption of Anakin during his time at the New Republic.

His popularity has been ramping up in the years before Soy Wars, starring in good movies like Inside Llewellyn Davis and Ex Machina.

Don't forget Drive. He's the best non-Bryan Cranston part of that movie.

 

[Jaimas]

What bugs the shit out of me is that Boyega by all accounts is a decent actor. He's got a good onscreen presence, and his role in Detroit shows he's got a pretty good range. He was one of the finalists for the role of Eggsy in Kingsman and only barely lost out to Taron Egerton. The weird part is that there seems to have been some attempt to remove his other films from his IMDB page, because the only one his page seems to mention is Attack the Block.

I can totally see why he'd be pissed. The dude's a good actor, he deserves better than this franchise.

 

[Liquid Kent]

Kyle Katarn

Guy was able to steal the Death Star plans on his own whilest it took Rogue One a lot, including death, to do it.
He would annihilate Kylo Ren with his hybrid Jedi/Blaster/Force combo, or all the knights of Ren with his eyes closed. Kyle runs on badass, its what I am saying.

I think you meant to say Badass runs on Kyle Katarn

because him running on badass isn't going to cut it, he's the NJO's Mace Windu without the hypocrisy. Maybe that's why these characters are so beloved, they're not written by or are hypocrites

 

[Stoneheart]

The Mandalorian is quietly attracting fans and Favreau is rebuilding a bridge that the Sequels had burnt. Suddenly:

It will lose all its fans if the rest of the season is like episode 4.
It was just Meh. like a bad episode of Andromeda,Star gate or Farscape.
the difference is, they would have never casted such an ugly woman as potential lover 15 years ago.
Also Mando is to weak. He should be more than Tyr.
It also lacks all kind of world building.

Also, why are Space farmers always complete cucks and live in anarchist communes?

 

[verissimus]

Haven't seen anything with the Mandalorian, but from what I've heard I can see this happening : https://www.artstation.com/artwork/YanZRP
Power to Filoni and Favreau if they have the balls to do that.

That looks way to griddy for Disney.
they dont have blood, they dont have ugly burns, Its a magical world...

It would be an interesting twist. Mando gets killed and baby Yoda brings him back to life, suggesting that the baby has a strong connection to the Dark Side. It turns out the Stormtroopers in the first episode were actually trying to stop baby Yoda so he wouldn't grow into a powerful Sith Lord.

 

[Creep3r]

It also lacks all kind of world building.

Its possible that might be due to 2 issues.

1: Maybe they're not allowed to freely expand on anything that takes place between VI and TFA until the shitty "Journey to Plan 9 project" is complete which currently has no set end date. Disney wants to pump out as much sequel shilling crap as they can from now until summer (and possibly beyond), and they probably don't want the Mando to interfere or go to familiar places until they're done raping the legacies and locations of the OT. Also since planets are still getting destroyed or fucked over in sequel shit and Marvel's comics (and they want to butcher the Empire some more for the FO set up) that might explain why the series is currently restricted to donut steal planets. Wouldn't be the first time Disney has put down a restriction like this.

AND/OR

2: Filoni and Favreau might be expecting viewers to already have pre-existing knowledge of SW lore before watching this show, the problem is Disney drones aren't that knowledgeable about their own DisneyEU lore and even less knowledgeable about pre-Disney Star Wars EU lore, and even then only a small minority of Disney drones are familiar with both canons, or at best only know about Mandos and lore from Filoni Wars and maybe Rebels. And this a major problem since this show is trying to somehow connect both canons which just doesn't work. Like bringing back Byss despite that the Emperor no longer has any ties to it now that Dark Empire has been replaced with Plan 9. It also doesn't help that there's no easily accessible database for casual viewers to go to for info on new stuff and Disney's "world building" due to Wookieepedia being such a mess full of stubs, red links and even more confusion since the Disney buyout.

Also, why are Space farmers always complete cucks and live in anarchist communes?

Generic trope combined with a lack of proper world building. I also find it odd how the new girl in the show demands the Mando get off the planet because she was there first. I mean, its a fucking planet, not a tiny island. Just tell him to fuck off to the other side. The place is mostly barren forests with probably hundreds of villages to chill in.

 

[samuraicrack]

New episode of the Mandalorian was good.

Spoiler

I forgot that AT-STs were supposed to be intimidating. The lady bounty hunter chick was cool. The villagers turning the tables on the raiders was pretty rad too. Last episode was better.

 

[Kamov Ka-52]

I thought it was pretty mediocre, felt like a filler episode.

Or 3:

The Mandalorian was developed in the tale end of the KK era, and they didnt want to do anything that undermined her [Which would cause a big stink and possibly more meddling]. This doesn't feel like a Show that was developed in the Post-Solo period of Star Wars where the Brand was bleeding out

I thought it was pretty mediocre, felt like a filler episode.

My gut is the Merc and the IG-88 show up for a battle in the final episode along with the other Mandos and this episode was to establish her
