Snippet fom the first review of "Star Wars -The Force Awakens"

>"unfortunately, while the force does awaken, it barely stumbles to its feet and manages to get out the door in time. And despite a newfound reliance on practical effects and sets, jettisoned by previous helmer, series creator George Lucas, it's characters still seem to half-dazed or even catatonic. Perhaps the rest of us should have stayed in bed?"

Is he right senpai?

I want this to bomb so badly

But I know it won't

I want it to be phantom menace bizarre what were they thinking meme tier. But instead well get a boring forgettable studio flick

Why would you wish this? If these movies prevail we'll eventually have so many Star Wars films that they will have to resort to The Old republic, and baby jesus knows that shit would be dope.

Outside of Tommy wiseau/battlefield earth levels of horrible I don't see how the bar could be any lower. All JJ has to do is make a movie better than the prequels and people will lose their collective shit over it.
JJ doesn't have a hard job at all, he has a very easy job

Kek. But honestly there's only 3 things wrong i see with the movie. 1 Daisy wooden acting 2 CGI Actress who can't act 3 Harrison "Just pay me and kill off my character from your garbage universes" Ford everything else seems ight so far

Don't care. My desire to watch Disney burn outweighs my desire to see Star Wars spammed everywhere forever by a company that rules the world. Star Wars makeup, anon. Disney is the Empire.

it won't bomb, but it won't meet Disney's expectations. there will be a frantic scramble to make sure they make back their $4.5 billion investment and a lot of their capeshit money will be wasted.

Bite the bullet m8. Disney puts out good films, and they won't let this cash cow die. 2 reasons why, despite whatever you believe, you may as well enjoy the bootlegs.

after the nightmare that was swtor, i don't think this is a good idea

just leave revan alone
>>
>>63303560
Of course he is. There is no actual Star Wars fan that expected "the force awakens" to be any sort of decent, plot wise. Story wise. The -wise that there is a stigma against star wars...the reason there is more than one Star Wars movie in the first place.

They've made an entire scheme out of some fucking dorks who have no power to change what is. It would be like, I don't know.
>>
>>63303831
>implying
I read the script and the daisy being wooden was said by her. Lupita was said by JJ. Watch any Harrison Ford interview he made recently. It's all there. Look im not saying its gunna shit like the OP is saying Im saying its just not gunna be over 8/10, it's a 7/10 just like most of JJ's movies. Do you see people discussing JJs Star Trek? No because its so forgettable and mediocre that there is nothing to discuss. Even if the movie turns out terrible like phantom menace it would be better than being forgotten

Disney wants a new star wars movie every fucking year. Nigger I won't even be middle aged by the time this happens.

Disney might be a monster, but they aren't at EA's level of monstrosity.
Disney has proven themselves to be great at making films. Just let them do their thing baby.

the visuals are the only thing im excited about with this movie.

the sets look good, the starships look good, the stormtroopers look good, and i can turn my brain off enough to enjoy a simplistic good vs evil flick for the strong star wars aesthetic alone. that's all i expect as a fan of the original trilogy, and thats more than i can say i got out of the prequels, which looked obnoxious.

im gonna cringe at the shoehorned old characters and the story will probably be bad, but the 12 year old kid in me is gonna have a hard-on for the starfighters and storm trooper armor and shit. can we really ask for more than that all things considered? i mean fuck it.
>>
>>63303670
This. People's expectations have been seriously lowered by the prequels. All they have to do with TFA is not make a shitty movie and people will love it.

>>
>>63304056
as cool as an old republic movie would be, I don't think it would work simply because creating an established canon with revan ruins the original game.

there are so many choices you can make with your revan which makes everyone's experience with the game different, and making anything about him or her "canon" takes that experience away from me.
>>
>>63304231
Willing to see the big picture, you are not. We don't need a film based on the game. We need to film to expand on the game. Disney is already expressed their dislike for anything outside of the movies. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if they experiment with the idea of the old republic without copying the game.
>>
>>63304291
a film set during the mandalorian wars would be awesome. it could have cameos from some characters in the game, but would have new main characters.

/pol/ is so triggered over this Disney movie they're literally making shit up
>>
If you are over 18, this film is not for you.

Over 18s expecting to see anything as memorable as the OT are deluding themselves. They are not children anymore, too much water has passed under then bridge for this to be, at best, anything other than an amiable time filler.

Under 18s will have seen it all before as sci-fi action flicks are all around us nowadays and won't hold the OT in as high regard as 70s and 80s kids - so don't expect them to go mad for it.

Parents taking their kids to the flicks expecting their kids to have as profound an experience as they did 30 years ago are also delusional.

Just look at the structure Di$ney have in place for the next 6+ years, to create a new franchise that they can wring every last shekel out of us all.

I am expecting this to be at best a 6/10 flick.

>>63308491

That's it. I guess they feel better playing it safe, if you can call a remake like this 'safe'. It could easily backfire and be condemned for the same reason. But by then they'll have their money from everyone having seen it once.

The shit part is now they have to play this old story out, so we have the chick learning to become a Jedi and being tempted by the dark side, and then the destruction of the 'Empire' again. Putting us right back to where we started... our heroes ultimately fail and the Empire later uprises 30 years from now.
