old man bumping around the set... lol
 

A source tells THR that the actor, who reprises his role as Han Solo from the original franchise, was injured by the door of the Millennium Falcon, the spacecraft that his character pilots in the original films. The spaceship looks to be making a return in the sequel.

Yeah I'm not convinced that it won't have a lot of that campy stuff still in it... I hope not.

star wars has always been designed to attract kids.

That's why most of us fell in love with the franchise to begin with.

It literally captured our imaginations.

The newer releases went overkill. Especially episode 1. Was complete disappointment, as it was geared to the younger audience.

So call me skeptical, cause I believe there will still be much of it geared towards the younger audience.

With that being said, J.J. knows how to do big movies, and get our attention.

I expect it better than episode 1-3, the newer ones. Hopefully it'll exceed that very low expectation.

I think post-release it can be said that all of them were commercial victories for the toy industry though. I think they kinda had the blockbuster thing going on with the movies AND the accessories long before anyone else did...

 

That said, I always enjoyed the original trilogy regardless of what is obvious today (the ewoks point above)... and I even liked the prequels. Hell, I saw Phantom Menace three times in the theater.

 

My oldest son will be 4 in September, and I am thinking about sitting him down one weekend and us plowing through all the movies, prequels first, just to see how he likes them at his age.

Obviously the prequels were campy but I didn't think they were too awful. I mean some Star Wars is better than no Star Wars. My biggest gripe with 1-3 is that I wanted Darth Maul to have a more prominent role. I think he should have survived into episode 2-3 and ultimately die when having to face Anakin. That would have been an epic fight.

 

It didn't make sense to me that Maul lost to Obiwan after he just killed his master, at least in the cheaply manner he was killed.

wooden acting, boring plot, jar jar binks, 9-year-old Anakin Skywalker, ethnic stereotypes, bad dialogue, midi-chlorians, toilet humor, unconvincing environments, a droid army with ranks, r2d2 and c3po's entire "story" line, every ship looks like a sex toy, jango fett, no chemistry between any of the actors, yoda fighting....

 

 

so many things wrong with the prequels

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
