Is Luke the bad guy? Would make sense for him to have the hand gaurd, no one who got their hand chopped off would want that to happen again

The absence of Luke on the poster is definitely quite odd, but I'm still not entirely convinced that they'd go that route since it would basically just be a mirror of Anakin's character progression through the prequels.

Tasty · « **Reply #371 on:** October 18, 2015, 03:05:37 PM »

If I remember right, the original idea was to have Luke being in the film at all kept a secret until he shows up like 3/4 through. But of course they couldn't really do that with the media spotlight and whatnot.

It was weird to me he narrated the second trailer, actually. I wonder if he'll even be in the final trailer.

Guess they're trying to stay true to the originals by not having the episodes mentioned

But is it fully-operational, or is it only pretending to not be fully-operational in order to lure the Rebels into a trap? I want to know the level of "rhyme" they're relying on.

The original Star Wars trilogy is so dang good, not withstanding some questionable stuff in Return of the Jedi.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #385 on:** October 18, 2015, 10:51:36 PM »

It's been a number of years since I saw them. I went on a little kick where I watched them a shitload like 10 years ago but all the star wars media has got me primed again.

But first I have to watch the prequel movies!

Oh, man, there are just so many ways they could have improved. So many missed chances. So much cheesy shit.

If you ever have the urge to watch them, just go to RedLetterMedia.com and watch their reviews of them. They're gold.

Went ahead and watched Star Wars last night. As good as always for me.

Thoughts.

I forgot that the movie shows Uncle Owen's & Aunt Beru's charred bodies when Luke returns back home after meeting Obi-Wan. Gruesome.

I so love how slow the first hour of that movie is. So much good world-building and mystery.

Seeing all the little George Lucas additions is just so stupid. I think I was indifferent to them the first time around but now they just seem so stupid. Restoring the cut jabba scene is so dumb and the worst offender. It actually harms the movie versus the other stupid little cgi background things running around.

You can forgot how this movie has a charm and whimsy and sense of humour about it in just the perfect proportion. I think that's why its my favorite. And this feeling was so completely and utterly screwed up in the prequels. He thought Jar Jar was the same sort of whimsy. The other movies prequels and originals also have a much darker tone and I think I prefer what I consider the perfect balance in this one.

People that try to claim that the originals are the same as the prequels and it's all just rose-tinted glasses and nostalgia are forever wrong. Ice Pirates is a better movie than any of the prequels.

Daisy is a fantastic choice for Rey. I love her desert/scavenger look.
