Of course two wrongs don't make a right and the zealots are still responsible for their own actions. Sadly I think it's the bashers of the PT and Disney, or even just Disney, that created these zealots, fueling their feverous fanaticism for all Stars films equally as a defense mechanism of some kind. I do not remember this phenomena quite to the same extreme occurring back with classic vs. I think these zealots are broken fans who like all the movies but reached a breaking point with film bashing that they angrily lash out at the slightest perceived criticism of any Disney Star Wars films, which they then exaggerate into full-on hatred towards all Disney SW films. It's not so funny that these fans who love all movies equally can be so negative against everyone who doesn't. This barely humorous meme hits the nail on the head because these zealots act like Hayden Christiansen playing whiny, angry Anakin in this scene. I had to post this in light of the recent SW fan encounters with what I'll call zealots in our fandom. In general I don't like the pervasive personification of years that is popular in recent years, but this one is funny. I feel I went way above and beyond to show appreciation for them in any way I could. For the last two DT films, my two least fave SW films of them all, I dug really deep to find all possible positive things I could say about them, films I don't even care for. So in general I would have to disagree with your statement regarding the comparison of our appreciation of the Disney films. I expect that you not seeing it is the only way for you to not be (more) pessimistic about it. I was a good deal optimistic for it until I saw it.

(It's on Disney+ now so you should watch it again.) And you haven't even seen TRoS yet. It is currently my most recently watched SW film. I seemed to remember you thinking Solo was just ok while I appreciated Solo a lot more. You argued the Finn-Rose "side mission" in the second act of TLJ was completely pointless while I realized the point of it was all for Finn's character arc (going from running away from the First Order to taking up the cause to resist it). Comparing our appreciation of them all, we both liked Rogue One. The sequence is unfortunately too short lived.Īnd you said Disney films, plural. ("They hate that ship!") But I realize that my enjoyment is probably only because of Williams scoring it with the classic "TIE Fighter Attack" motif from ANH. I did really enjoy the moment near the end when Chewie and Rey show up in the Falcon and engage FO TIE fighters.

That was probably a bit of hyperbole from me though. I'm truly happy for you that you enjoyed something in TLJ post-alien-boobie-green-milk more than me. I have to say, I never thought I'd see the day when you were more pessimistic about the Disney films than me. The rest of the film was downhill from there. Introducing so many new characters should have been an obvious recipe for disaster.

This is what happens to the leadership of banks and movie franchises that are too big to fail. It was like the Buck Rogers space vampire came and sucked all possible sense of drama from Johnson's mind when he was writing that lightsaber "battle".Ĭurrently playing D&D 5E and painting an unholy amount of miniatures. I think the best part of the film was probably the space battle at the beginning, as cornball as it was. It was like the Buck Rogers space vampire came and sucked all possible sense of drama from Johnson's mind when he was writing that lightsaber "battle". What we saw at the end of TLJ was Luke's projection dodging Kylo's attacks, until Kylo finally ran his lightsaber harmlessly through projecto-Luke revealing that he wasn't even there. There wasn't even a psychosomatic battle like the remote mind meld skirmishes that Rey and Ren had in TRoS. I submit to you that to qualify as a "battle", there would have had to have at least been lightsabers clashing.
