Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

[quote name="lawdog1"][quote name="CP1708""]My theater showed zero previews. :pimp:[/quote]So jelly -

I had to sit through:

New Mike Bay movie
Kung Fu Panda 3
Warcraft
CA - Civil War
Batman v. Superman
Jungle Book
Independence Day - Resurgence

(and a couple more that I'm forgetting)[/quote] Same here, along with that Forest movie, 2oolander... good grief, it really was a small eternity of previews. :x
 
Writing actual dialogue.

Rey/Luke no words scene. (Like the video from "what if the prequels were actually good")

Zero Coruscant, Naboo, Gungun, references.

Scaling back 3-P0. (HUGE)

POV camera angles rather than CGI mail in.

Actual good acting. Rey, Poe, Ren, Finn, Hux were all excellent.

Ren/Jacen/Ben nods. And I swear Rey is Jaina, but maybe I'm wrong there.

Not Maul'ing people too soon.

Han. (Maybe thee biggest FU)

:lol: all this in 4-5 minutes without really thinking, and only one viewing so far. :lol:
 
I was happy to get right to it, but would have LOVED Civil War, Bat/Supes trailers on big screen.
 
I got

warcraft

that movie about a boat crashing or something with chris pine

Jungle book

some other one I cant remember

would have loved to see batman and civil war

Then hopefully I'm stateside next month sometime and I can go to the IMAX to watch
 
You can be trained to use the Force, if you aren't, it does nothing for you.

Which contradicts what happened in Episode VII (think woods).

No, it doesn't. Rey is trained, but has memory loss or some nonsense.

So you think that memory of her being a little girl and seeing her family fly away on a ship is an implanted memory? Maybe she was one of the students that Luke had when they were attacked and she managed to survive / escape somehow.
 
More so because of how much of a huge FU ep 7 was to the prequels

their #1 goal was to not be anything like the prequels and it ends up being the most successful movie ever 
Yeah but ep 7 is exactly like ANH which was all George :lol:

He wins either way. At best it's more a **** you to 99-05 George.

Things would be different if lets say he sold to Disney but did his finale SW movie in 2012 which was after the OT and that too sucked. Knowing him though, he'd make his last movie episode X so future writers/directors couldn't ignore it :lol:
 
tbh prob the only recent movie I can think of the breaks the /8 scale..... like its a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale out of 8 

I would like to see it again tmrw

I know what you mean, like I know it's not a perfect movie but it was by far the most entertaining and enjoyable movie I have seen in years and I have spent way too much time evaluating everything about this movie

felt like a kid watching the original movies for the first time again

it could be seen as JJ trying to outdo the only good star wars movie directed by George

He's winning when it comes to money 

but you know his ego has to feel some sort of way from the way people are loving this movie

Not sure yet.

Hidden. Protected. Lost. Erased. I'm not sure the reason yet. Mental block. Hypnotized. Gonna be a strange one.

I have trouble dealing with Luke, Han, Leia all suck as parents. Makes no sense. But we'll see.
 
On the Decades channel I'm watching 1969 (Starring: Kiefer Sutherland, Robert Downey Jr.) made in 1988.

Winona Ryder called Jack Bauer beautiful. Robert Downey Jr. told Kiefer "to go play in the sand dunes" by himself. This movie is entertaining. :lol:

The Revenant was very meh to me. I mean, it didn't do anything for me after watching for some reason and that's very rare for a movie of this magnitude/hype. I can't explain it really

I really wanted Leo to get that Oscar man..but I don't think he gets it. There has been a couple actors with better performance this year and that's just real ****. Maybe a better director could've really set this film apart..that's just me though.

I am so disappointed in the early takeaways of that movie. I know that they've all just started coming in. But the mixed/numb to it vibe ..

Great list guys. I had a good laugh thinking about how pissed George is right now. Wait til the official list hits the known internet. I can feel the disturbance in the force now.

Damn :wow: was hoping it had epic written all over it.

This. I always try to go in blind, but it's so hard to just because my curiosity beings to peak closer to release dates.

So many nt'ers are going to cry. They always say he's a lock for an oscar but that for this role it was more true based off the trailers.
