She looks horrible in movie but ok in real life

I enjoyed Rebels much more than Last Jedi. The Force Awakens more, but not by much. Although it was a good movie, the buildup to certain aspects and then the results shown were a let down.

What sayest thou, IC? Should I catch a matinee on my day off or nah?
Go watch it in Imax 3D. It's worth it.
My girls don’t bang with Star Wars and I’m too old for the “ me and my ? at the movies” nights so I’m damn sure not gon be somewhere by myself standing in line at night for no Imax
I’m tempted to go see it just off the strength that white boys is mad, but Star Wars is their sacred cow so I also had the thought that it might legit be trash.
If it’s good movie, matinee on regular screen is good enough for me -
it had great visuals but they just completely disregarded reys parents and snokes backstory and how he bcame so powerful. That kinda ruined it for me all that buildup for what? what reason is there to see episode
9 now? just to see rey and kylo fight? all the OT trilogy is gone so the intrigue goes with it[. thats why the "whiteys" are mad, and i agree. star wars is about the lore not the short payoffs thats why generations of people come to see it and learn about the history and interest in back stories/spoiler] -

Them ? always complaining about a female lead or hero. There was 6movies with a female lead let it go. If here ? wasn't complaining about wonder woman why complain about star wars. -

The verdict isn't out on who reys parents are yet. Kylo could've been lying to her. -

When you say rebels do you mean rougue one? I stopped liking staw wars rebels for some reason. I only like when guest stars like lando, tarkin , Leia or Darth Vader shows up. It has a few good episodes other than that the show sort of bores me and I don't like the crew especially that big purple cat looking dude. It doesn't feel like cannon. -
Just saw it:Loved the connection between rey and kylo and how they got close by talking to each other until ultimately taking down snoke and his guards together. I thought instead of the power struggle over the saber they were gonna fight.
This movie might have the best space and land battles (mostly space) out of any movie. I love hearing tie fighters in the movies. I wish luke coulda actually fought kylo though but I get it because he woulda washed him imo. I kinda wish it wasn't a force hologram because for luke to survive the shots from the AT-ATs they pulling out the jay Z dirt off your shoulders woulda meant more. But at the same time even having the hologram was dope, crackas was clapping when they saw luke never left his planet.
Like how snoke died I just kinda wish they showed kylo ignited it after the saber killed him. The way his body just fell in pieces was nice. But yeah my only gripe was the casino part. It almost didn't feel like star wars.
Wonder what unfolds in ep 9 -
Is lando going to be in episode 9?
-
lol @ thinking that WASN'T a hologram now that I think about it. His lightsaber shoulda been green and this is right after Anakin's blue lightsaber exploded in the power struggle.
Silly me -
smash on roses sister. I.D.G.A.F.
-
Just watched it, it was good,liked it alot better than the force awakens
-
Saw it. Dope. Made much more sense than Ep. 7.

Silly me
safe to assume there's more lightsabers tho. Luke knows how to make em, he made the green one in a scene cut from the opening of Return of the Jediplus Ben Solo had a blue lightsaber in the flashback scene where its him vs Luke. I'm assuming that wasn't the Anakin lightsaber -

What you heard was the answer
Thats the ""big reveal""
Ain't no deeper mystery or grand conspiracy -

I hope not, but you're probably right. Rian Johnson's big thing in this film was subverting expectations. you seen it with snoke, Luke's reaction to being handed his old lightsaber, etc. -
there is no hidden reveal. director said it himself
Star Wars 8 Director Compares Rey’s Parents Reveal to Empire Strikes Back“For me, it was a dramatic choice. It was just that her hearing – and also for the audience hearing that… if the answer had been, that’s presented in this movie at least, in this context. If the answer presented to her was, ‘Your parents are so-and-so, here you go, here’s your place in this story.’ That would be the easiest thing for her to hear. And easiest thing for us to hear! Wish fulfillment. It’s like, ‘Oh, great! That’s who I am. That’s that.’ The hardest thing she could hear is, ‘No, you’re not going to get that answer, that definition.’ In fact, the fact that you don’t have that is going to be used against you by Kylo, to try and make you lean on him. You’re going to have to find the strength to define yourself and stand on your own two feet.”
“I was thinking, what’s the most powerful answer to that question? Powerful meaning: what’s the hardest thing that Rey could hear? That’s what you’re after with challenging your characters. I think back to the ‘I am your father’ moment with Vader and Luke, and the reason I think that lands is not because it’s a surprise or a twist but because it’s the hardest thing Luke and thus the audience could hear at that moment. It turns someone into a bad guy that you just hate and want to ? into suddenly, Oh my ? , this is a part of our protagonist. We have to start thinking of this person in more complex terms. We need to start thinking in terms of a redemption arc.” -
This is easily the best looking movie in the series..
I wouldn't be mad if Mark Hamil got a Oscar or golden globe nod for best supporting actor..
It's not a perfect movie but the things it gets right are pretty good. I might check it out again in theaters..
Question:Did that kid use the force to grab that broom?
Also..RIP Snoke Hefner. We hardly knew ye..*hums Krits Bury me in gold*
Annnd..Jedi can just be like '? life I'm out'? I'm not mad Luke died but I was like 'huh?' A 1000 goats to man that makes that gif 1st..
And it woulve been nice to know Leia could use the force rather than it be implied.. -

Leia was force sensitive since empire strikes back Luke probably trained her during the years after return of the jedi -

Your probably right. I haven't watched the og trilogy since I was a kid so it was something I might've forgot about.. -
The millennium falcon flying through the salt caves, the hyperspace suicide shot, the kid at the end looking at the double planets/suns ala luke, the space battles, snoke's throne room, etc all were beautiful
-
going to see it again today.
(not a videogames ? no more but copped battlefront 1 & 2 of the strength of last jedi) -
No ? EA
