People are taking this whole thing way too seriously. It reminds me of the woman in a video magazine, when the talk was that Spielberg was going to take ET out of release for a while, said that he didn’t have the right to do that.
It is a commodity. Nothing more. Some of us get entertainment out of it, some (e.g. my wife) think it’s all stupid. It will go the way of the Bob Hope Bing Crosby “Road to” movies eventually. I like some. I don’t like others. This last one is one of my top three. Up there with episodes 4 and 5 (the first two releases) and really closed the loop well. And some of those episodes were absolute garbage. Their only redeeming quality being good special affects, which has not held me for decades.
Didn’t need the lesbian kiss on the ewok planet, imo.
Every one of them for a while now has pushed a narrative...narratives that are making our country look ridiculous.
The Empire is Obviously a take on the NAZIs yet the one stormtrooper who defects is black.
Yet again white men are no longer the main heroes, if they’re not stooges.
You don’t have to believe anything. You’re all growed up.
The kids watching it aren’t.
Wouldn’t pay a dime to see any of the new garbage.
I tried to watch Rogue 1 and it bored me to tears.
The only consistently great thing about the Star Wars films—and they never get anything like the credit they deserve—are the John Williams soundtracks. After Lucas, he’s the guy that makes Star Wars “Star Wars.”
