The Last Jedi & Episode 9 - Discussion and SPOILERS (that means stay out if you have not seen it)
  • I think we just need to accept that there will only ever be 3 decent Star Wars films.
  • Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back and Last Jedi.
  • I believe Disney had a plan, I just don't think the overarching story was particularly important to it. ;)
    Heh! 
    I agree about TFA and the deathstar planet. But, for me, the movie made up for shortcomings like that. That scavenging bit with Rey at the start was magical. Wonderful music, design etc etc. Rey having made her home in a walker. Magic! 
    Or the X wings swooping in low over the water. Lovely jubbly.

  • is this the right thread for ep 9 spoilers?
    anyway, seems Vanity Fair did a big preview story with interviews and some clips, photos and stuff.
    not read the main article yet so don't know exactly how spoilery, but prob best to stay out if you're trying to go dark!
    https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2019/05/star-wars-cover-story?verso=true

    this is an interview bit with Daisy and Driver - maybe no specific spoilers in the text, but there's images and videos that may want to be avoided.

  • is this the right thread for ep 9 spoilers?

    No, not unless the thread title is changed...
  • This is quite entertaining:
    (Spoilers if you're avoiding trailers and any info, plus they're making (outlandish) predictions of what might happen, so it could turn out to be big plot spoilers if these things come true!)

    I am firmly of the opinion that predictions should never be considered spoilers.
  • Mike is gonna be right, fucking lmao.

    I watched that last night, it would be hilarious if they went back in time and started fiddling about with the older films.

    that bit where Obi-wan makes the storm troopers on death star look the other way, actually it's Rey and Finn pratfalling in the corridor that distracts them at the same time!
    all this time, the force is never a power an individual controls, all that manipulation is actually time travelling ghosts picking up rocks and whispering in people's ear!

  • Please god let it be time travel. They would fuck that up so hard. 

    Full lols at the writers being Abrams and the man who wrote Justice League and BvS.
  • "Fuck it"
    the film opens with Kylo Ren finding and killing the remains of the rebellion. he fights and kills Rey.
    Cut to Kylo, at a bar, talking to a hot girl, "and that's how i became the baddest man in the universe!"...he moves in for a kiss, then suddenly his chair is pulled from under him and he falls to the floor.
    "yeah, he's so bad he needs his uncle's help to buy a gift for his mother". it's Luke!
    The girl leaves in disgust, Luke helps an emabarassed Ben Solo up from the floor. "You still trying the bad guy routine? C'mon, the speeder's ready, time to go"

    And so starts a comedy road trip as Ben Solo and Uncle Luke scour the outer rim territory for the perfect 60th Birthday gift for Leia.

  • damn that RLM video. I really wasn't that interested in ep 9. Curious about what happens? Yeah sort of. But after TLJ i had no excitement or real interest in where it went, which was novel for me and a star wars film - happy to watch trailers and read spoilers etc.
    basically my thoughts were that they'd have to go 'ridiculous and stupid' to get me interested in ep9...but that would be ridiculous and stupid!
    but that RLM video triggered something, and then i was talking about it with a mate, throwing around stupid suggestions, until i stumbled upon an idea that i kind of actually liked and could possibly be squeezed in.
    and so here it is, for your amusement and delectation.

  • Sorry ram, while your idea is sound and makes sense for all plots involved, it subverts none of my expectations so I'm out.

    Time for a hasty rewrite...
    Spoiler:
    everything else stands exactly the same. EXACTLY!

  • My idea:

    Luke wakes up, and looks out of the window. He sees a shirtless Ben Solo doing his Jedi training. Han and Leia are sat in front of the Millennium Falcon, watching with pride. Chewbacca appears and makes his funny noise. "Damn straight Chewie" says Han. In another room R2-D2 can be heard beeping. "Well I never", replies C3PO. Leaving the house, he see's his neighbour also emerging. "Lando!" shouts Luke. "how the devil are you?

    The rest of the film plays out like an episode of King of the Hill, but in space.
  • Han is Dale, Chewie is John Redcorn.
  • Immediately need to go to sleep
  • Know what I hate??? That stupid scene with the kid and he broom at the end of TLJ. Non Jedi/Sith having force powers IS NOT A NEW FUCKING THING.

    For this though....Im thinking Palps survived,barely and Snoke was his apprentice who got badly fucked up rescuing him.

    My biggest hope for episode 9 is that it sends everyone who hated episode 8 into even greater paroxysms of raging disappointment.

    Maybe force ghosts figure out how to come back in a tangible form and kick everyone's arse.

    And then the Sith do the same trick and there's a big rumble.

    And then that's the effing end of it.
