'Bout to drop the most fire mixtape of 34 ABY.
 
The problem we have is that from ROTJ to know, in the 30 years you seem to think there is a good government in place where my thought is that the last 30 years has been a constant state of war on a much smaller scale than the OT.
The re-imagined Trilogy still has Coruscant's people over throwing the Empire at the end of ROTJ and that's probably where a lot of Imperial records are kept. So at least one planet in the galaxy knows.
 
Doesn't really say that, he says he got nothing to fight for not that he doesn't fight for the empire. I mean I hope i'm wrong but I bet ya his story ark is not giving a shit to giving a shit because friendship or some such drivel



To many to count :(



I don't understand? 16 years of people with different opinions is a bad thing?

Opnions? ,nah that's fine

Overanalisis, nitpicking, and extreme hate and negativity to even a couple lines of dialogue?

Yeah, that sounds like fun...
 
A lot of the dialog sounded like trailer dialog. Most blockbusters these days shoot scenes and lines which allow the trailer editors to pithily work in the main themes without giving anything away.

Exactly. Hard to tell if it was true "movie dialogue" or just in there for the trailer.

(Also, maybe it was pure blind nostalgia on my part, but Harrison Ford delivery felt solid.)
 
Just woke up and, wow! So good! If the trailer wasn't enough to wake me up I put my headphones on max for the feels, and that first noice was something special.

Dude what? The trailer had like 4 lines of dialog, what else we gonna talk about? How nice the CGI looked? Every movie has good CGI anymore. If you wanna call being circuital nitpicking have at it. The dialog they showed so far has all the depth of a puddle. Least with JJs Star Trek films people just saw them for what they were, mass produced sci fi adventure movies.
 
And what? Do I need to say more? No blood no gore.
And its an opinion. You speak like you know definitively about the film.

Plenty of films have gotten PG-13 ratings that didn't have blood and gore. Heck any significant amount of blood and gore gets you an R these days. PG is basically live action family movies or light hearted films and PG-13 is the cash cow in the eyes of studios if your seeking the teen/adult and older children crowd.

This film has a notably darker tone and clearly isnt going to be shy on violence, trauma, and heavy themes. They might get a PG but if I had to bet after watching the trailer i'd say PG-13.

Coruscant would also be the planet most likely to doubt the veracity of claims that Jedi were back given that they had front row seats to the eradication of the Jedi order decades earlier. You can still square away past knowledge of existence with modern doubts of reemergence. I dunno, this just doesn't seem like that big a problem to me, but some of the other rationales that people have put forward are excessively complicated.
 
No but the New Republic would certainly release the information to all Planetary governments who would probably let the info trickle down to the people. So yeah, only way I can justify that conversation is that Rey just didn't care (which is fine I won't argue that)

It's not like those millions of Galactic Empire's warships across the galaxy simultaneously exploded when the Emperor died. The galaxy is a vast, vast place. Any fraction of this Imperial army would be able to maintain a firm grip of several sectors, defying the New Republic order. Them maintaining information blockade and propaganda that kept outer planets in the dark doesn't seem far-fetched to me. In fact, that's actually the most logical thing that could happen.
 
This would of been funny 13 years ago when Clone Wars opened but it's not even beating a dead horse at this point because the horse's corpse has turned to bone and disintegrated.
I don't know ... I always heard if you keep beating a dead horse, eventually it'll twitch.

What kind of dialogue were you expecting? Considering what we know about the characters, everything they said makes sense. Finn's a stormtrooper. Rey's a scavenger on a middle-of-nowhere planet

Plenty of films have gotten PG-13 ratings that didn't have blood and gore. Creeping into PG-13 territory is pretty easy in todays MPAA. PG is basically live action family movies or light hearted films and PG-13 is the cash cow in the eyes of studios.

Yup, MPAA is much harder today. Jaws was PG, man. That bloody kid shark murder = PG
 

The prequels made the faults in RotJ far more apparent. The 2 foot tall forest animals who thought a robot was a god because they were so backwards defeated this giant fighting force that we were supposed to fear all this time? It's downright insulting to the fans who have supported the series. If you can't see that, then I don't know what to say.

This unstoppable terror of Space Nazis with advanced weapons and tactics... beat by teddybears throwing rocks and chucking 3 foot spears 3 yards. It trivializes all the accomplishments of our heroes to that point.
 
I'm not at all a fan of the Empire still existing. I'd rather another planet with a strong standing army made a play. Mandalore being the obvious choice.
 
By Luke's time, force users were pretty much extinct and considered relics of a bygone age who practiced some weird religion. No one knew the Emperor was a force user except for Vader, Yoda, and later Luke. Grand Moff Tarkin even said that Vader was the last living Force user in the original Star Wars because everyone else thought Obi-Wan Kenobi was dead. Luke was the last Jedi, and he only whipped out his saber to fight Vader and Jabba the Hutt on the barge.

The reason it seems different to us, is because we're following Luke's journey as a Jedi in the OT. Everyone else in that universe didn't see it from his vantage point. The only ones who experienced it first hand were Han and Leia because they were with him for most of it, and witnessed his exploits first hand (also Leia herself being force-sensitive). So for people outside of Luke's circle (i.e. people who were born years after RotJ), the Jedi, the dark side, the Force, just seems like fairy tales and urban legends.

In short, a person living in the Prequel era might see a Jedi in passing. A person living in the OT era hasn't seen a Jedi in decades. A person living in the new trilogy era has never seen a living Jedi, and their exploits were either tarnished by the Empire, or largely considered nothing more than tall tales.

So yeah, it makes sense.

anyone know the songs used in the second trailer? This was good, but the second one with Luke narrating is my favorite. I'm trying to figure out which track that is from the movie scores.

You've read way to much into what I've said then and are acting incredibly silly over something you imagined . All I said is blasters don't cause wounds that bleed they cauterize. I've said or inferred nothing more and your rush to conclude whatever it is you THOUGHT I was saying is completely wrong.

You'd be right but we saw Rey scavenging an Imperial Ship. You're telling me they were able to keep and censor info from Rey but they didn't care at all about her or anyone else scavenging their stuff?

Coruscant would also be the planet most likely to doubt the veracity of claims that Jedi were back given that they had front row seats to the eradication of the Jedi order decades earlier. You can still square away past knowledge of existence with modern doubts of reemergence. I dunno, this just doesn't seem like that big a problem to me, but some of the other rationales that people have put forward are excessively complicated.
That's fair, I suppose if within a lifetime ago (or even less maybe for some aliens that lived long enough) Jedi got destroyed so brutally and openly they could remember that and think "Nah man they got wrecked, they're gone".
 
What kind of dialogue were you expecting? Considering what we know about the characters, everything they said makes sense.

How about dialog that wasn't written for a trailer? Go watch the 1977 trailer for Star Wars and compare, outside of the cheesy narrator both Luke and Leia say normal ass things. No one is talking like a pompous asshole.

Aw yiss, this guy gets it.

This!
it's trailer dialogue, it's probably not even in the final product

Think of them like Waffen SS soldiers. You see 3 of them walking in with guns just like that. Do you laugh or shit yourself? They fucking destroyed entire planets with thousands if not millions of years of intelligent life with rich history in less than 2 seconds. I think you should be, I dunno, somewhat concerned when they come after you, lol
