No thanks Disney!

I have read that Rey is Palpatine's grand-daughter???

Meh... I have fallen out with Star Wars films in a big way (apart from the OT) and this trailer did not excite me one bit. They probably only brought Lando back because they now have a huge gaping hole where all the original heroes once stood. After the complete mess that was TLJ, I don't...

Or may I offer "The Farce Awakens"

2. I only saw it once at the cinema and have absolutely no desire to ever see it again. The only part I liked was when Luke turned up at the end. Unfortunately, apart from that bit, they proceeded to completely destroy the beloved character of Luke Skywalker.

I literally just got around to seeing this. Dad got the DVD for Christmas. I thought it was pretty good to be fair, far better than The Last Jedi. There were one or two "meh" moments, but on the whole I liked it.

He seems like a top guy in real life. I think he struggled slightly in AotC, but there are not many young actors who confronted with that role wouldn't have to be honest. But he did his best, and I am convinced that some of the problems he had were with the dialogue he was forced to spout (a...

Star Wars: Binary sunset: everything about this scene just works, it gives me a chill up the spine every time I see it. Anyone who has ever felt frustration and longed for something else can identify with Luke here. Mos Eisley Cantina: this is just a fun scene, all the creatures around, Han is...

This is true, Star Wars brought us all here after all. Regarding the original post, I am personally starting to feel some fatigue set in. Star Wars is beginning to feel less of an event and more of a "oh, another one". I probably won't see Solo in the cinema (which is a first for me with Star...

Hmmm. Looks like he was diving back into his "keep that for later" writing box. The "Whills" were part of one of George's early drafts for Star Wars. In the early stages he had it named something like "Journal of the Whills" they were supposed to be a "little people" kinda like Hobbits.

Yeah, I think that was always going to happen after TLJ, particularly with Solo coming out so soon after. Just because it is Star Wars they seem to think they can just churn out anything and have all the fans enjoy it, In fact it's quite the opposite. Even more care needs to be taken to...

That's a good point, no one really "wins" the fight as such. Luke comes off the worst but there is no real winner. Keeps the audience on the hook :D

I don't know, I think as you say, everyone has different ideas about what qualifies. Wikipedia also lists: Babe: Pig in the city Cloverfield Godzilla (2014) Gremlins Shawshank redemption Which I really wouldn't look at and say "That's a cult film that is". But there they are.

I agree, much of it is down to our own interpretation.

Ok so Pulp Fiction was probably not the best choice of Tarantino, and not a full-on cult classic in the traditional sense. Part of the problem with cult classics is that many people have not seen some of the more obscure ones. I was just referencing the more popular considered ones as there...

Nah. It was mediocre at best. It certainly would not deserve the status of cult classic. When you look at other cult classics: Blade Runner Pulp Fiction & Reservoir Dogs Donnie Darko Fight Club A Clockwork Orange Vertigo I really don't think R1 deserves that status. It will certainly have a...

Haha, yeah. To say most people seem to like ESB best, you are not getting much from them :lol:

Empire is also my least favourite of the OT. My order is ANH, RotJ, ESB. I think people like Empire so much because basically everything goes wrong for the rebels, and by the end of the film they are the ones who are worse off. I think this creates a more emotional anchor-point for the...

Just on with it now, I never knew it was a book until I heard about the Spielberg film a year or so ago (Only just got around to reading it now). I am enjoying it so far, some of the dialogue between the characters is a bit cringe-worthy, but overall it is very good. Really looking forward to...

No hate from me, more like indifference really. I watched it, and when it ended I felt nothing really, no excitement, no real interest even though it is Star Wars. I felt the same way about TLJ trailer, and ended up not liking the film that much. That is why Solo ain't boding well for me...
