Star Wars Universe Thread: May The 4th Be With You

[39478]

Currently at 629 Mil Domestic #4 and 1.3 Bil Worldwide #8.

Should surpass 700 mil over the weekend and still won't hit China for another 10 days. Then we'll get a better sense of where it will end up.


I wish I knew anything about Stocks and such, would love to know what Disney was at in 2012 to where it's at now. Maybe JRS knows how to find all that information.

In short, it's gone up by something like 200% (~$40 to ~$120)

Lol I know that Disney is counting on the film to do 2 bil, otherwise they'd be losing money

Something about overpaying for their sports and news channels

As if we didn't have enough reasons to slander espn LOL

I watched that whole Lucas interview a few days ago. He didn't come off salty at all. Kept it 100.

Word, reading txt and watching him say it will give you two different impressions. Especially if you're in the George hate camp and still salty over the prequels.

I swear some of you same dudes a few months ago was saying Star Wars was overrated. Even saying "blasphemy" stuff as ASM2>>>>>>>>>All Star Wars movies.

My my the "turn" has transcended .

I have a feeling who this was directed at and I'm pretty sure there's some exaggeration

 

[Master Zik]

ASM2 wasn't even good though.

Like I don't think SW is the greatest thing ever but I wouldn't even compare it to something as lowly as that movie.

 

[lamekilla]

^^ ASM2 is better than episode I and II though...

 

[Master Zik]

Is it really?

I recently re-watched the prequels. I know I'll never re-watch ASM2 in it's entirety.

Because Disney has us back on the Star Wars train again. The Hype Awakening

i might be the biggest prequel hater here, I could write essays on how bad they are

but ASM2 is pure garbage

if episode 1 and episode 2 had a baby, that baby would cry at the sight of ASM2

I would rather get punched in the face than watch that sorry excuse for a movie again

Eh, I chose to re-watch them. I could've easily left them out. DIsney wasn't out here promoting a FOX property to get us in to TFA. I could've stopped after watching the OT.

My memory of them wasn't so bad that I couldn't bare to go through it again.

I have such a bland and can't even bother with it attitude when I think of ASM2 it just lets me know which I disliked more.

Just a slight jab .

 

[DeadsetAce]

finally saw TFA last night. pretty ******* awesome. for the most part, loved the new characters. daisy can have it all. liked finn's character a lot, as well. and i sorta get why it was done, but i wish they didn't show kylo ren's unmasked face. at least not so soon. some of the easter eggs had me chuckling a bit. the light saber fights with sparks flying off the light sabers were dope. agreed with a few pages back, obi wan and anakin's battle was king, but rey and ren's fight was so dope. even though we've known about his light saber since the first previews, such an awesome concept with the cross guards looked amazing.

definitely left me even more excited for the next one. loved how they ended it, as well. almost could have been a "credits scene". wanted to hear what Luke would say or sounded like, but am glad it was just silence. more build up for the next one. i have a few questions with some of the things i saw, but am going to go back and see if they were already discussed or answered in the last 20 or so pages


EDIT: C CP1708 will probably be blowing up your inbox with questions/theories at some point

A lot of dope stuff unused or changed.

I'm more curious to read Lucas' scripts and notes.

 

[KingParappa]

I wonder if any of that will be used in any of the future movies

 

[Master Zik]

I assume some of those Vader designs that look less like Vader are used for some of the knights of Ren that haven't been thought up yet.

Hope the half light, half dark force ghost stuff makes it in to the next movies.

Snoke existing since the prequels needs to be directly addressed so it can be official or they can just outright say he's Plagueis.

I want that red and blue double light saber or make a red and green one.

The disrespect.

 

[everysingletime]

Did someone mention rebooting the prequels on here? I'd be all for that.

cot damb rebooting everything under the sun makes me want to puke

[KingParappa]

yeah just let the prequels fester in the past.

i mentioned this the first time disney bought star wars


im sure they could do a pretty good job remaking the prequels with better casting and characters


if they ever do reboot the star wars saga they should start with episode 1
