SpazzyMcGee Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I'm fascinated by this film. Not sure what to expect. Me too, more heist oriented or action or spy? Very curious for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector53 Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Yeah I'm glad Poe's still going to be around. His snippy dialogue with Kylo made me chuckle and the blooming bromance between him and Finn was kinda of funny. I hope he's actually got more to do the next time around than just be the ace pilot though and then disappearing for a good part of the movie. Would have preferred him going along with Finn to meet Rey but we would not have gotten this lol shot probably. SpazzyMcGee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpazzyMcGee Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I did hear in an interview with Lucas that he had planned to just make a movie called "Star Wars" that encompassed the entire original trilogy but realizing it was too long, just opted to make one movie about the first third, then had success obviously to continue, etc, etc. We know the rest. Going to end up reading Shattered Empire to add some more context to the end of Jedi, only a mini series comic.Reading the other comics now, just finished Lando on to Vader Down next.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 The next Star Wars will be directed by Rian Johnson, director of the 2012 film Looper and three iconic Breaking Bad episodes, and is set to hit theaters in May 2017. Daisy Ridley will return as Rey, Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker, Oscar Isaac as Poe Dameron, John Boyega as Finn and Benicio Del Toro will be one of the added characters for the trilogy's second sequel. While not much else has been revealed, the end of Episode VII has sparked educated speculation and the cast and crew has revealed subtle hints. .

Shattered Empire was good, but Vader Down so far is great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daegor Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 The next Star Wars will be directed by Rian Johnson YAAAASSSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breezus Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Okay, I knew Rian Johnson directed Brick and Looper but I didn't know he also directed three Breaking Bad episodes - and arguably its greatest episode, Ozymandias. And now I'm even more hyped. I wonder what Harrison Ford is gonna do in VIII. Probably flashbacks scenes (hopefully with Leia), I don't think he has the ability to become a Force ghost.

SBarry Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 The whole dialogue that leads to this gif killed me lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samdroid Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Finn and Poe's friendship is something that genuinely touched me in VII, it would have been such a shame if Poe had been killed. The growing bond between them felt so genuine and real to me, I can't wait to see Boyega and Isaac share the screen again in VIII. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector53 Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 We should really turn this into the Star Wars thread...coming up next is Star Wars: Rogue One. Being directed by Gareth Edwards whose films are Godzilla (2014) and Monsters. Writing that one is Chris Weitz whose credited for writing Cinderella, About A Boy, American Pie, and Golden Compass. The other writer is Gary Whitta, who wrote Book of Eli (okay film) and After Earth (very bad film). I didn't mind Gareth with Godzilla but those writers better write a decent script to work with.

I will not say that Godzilla is better/worse than that POS AE flick but it should be a crime to waste Bryan Cranston and Ken Watanaba the way they did in that film and have to make people have to deal with Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver as your lame main characters.

That dude's voice really bugs me. I don't think he's a terrible actor but theres just something about his voice that I don't like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psus2h Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 So what is the date that we can openly talk about this film w/o spoiler tabs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 So what is the date that we can openly talk about this film w/o spoiler tabs? Is two weeks from release enough time...? I don't know :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 So what is the date that we can openly talk about this film w/o spoiler tabs? Yeah, I was wondering this too. I think 2 weeks, as Dom suggested, is fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 tag the title with "contains spoilers" and have at it. it's not like a tv show that people follow week to week and may or may not be caught up on. you've either seen it or you haven't. and if you haven't, you really shouldn't be visiting star wars TFA threads if you're trying to avoid spoilers...
