CAMERON DECLARES WAR ON DISNEY
>it's next release
Fucking hell, Daily Mail.
Episode VIII is coming out May 2017, not December
Right now VIII is slated for May I think, for the 40 years anniversary of Star Wars, though they might be tempted to move it to Christmas after seeing how TFA is performing. Also I doubt he gets it out in '17
Did you consider JJ Abrams choice of making Finn a janitor appropriate for the film's tone?
Also what are your opions of janitors in other film depictions or elsewhere?
>>64122066
Perosnally I hated the depiction of jannitors in Good Will Hunting, the idea of a jannitor, even one who gets payed for his work being so intelligent was outside my suspense of disbelief
>>64122066
It was light hearted and it was intended to bring humor
However I can't stop to think how a janitor would be a skilled fighter like TREY TOR
Were the janitor on the ship payed like the janitors on this board?
>Ex machina
>Star Wars
>Brooklyn
>Revenant
He's had a pretty good year hasn't he
He deserves it, he's an incredibly related actor
Wrong casting for Star Wars. He looked like a kid pretending to be hitler.
>>64122012
Sucking right cocks will get you far.
Has /tv/ hit a new low defending the prequels?
I'd like to Fisto his Kit, if you know what I mean
What do you mean new low? They're objectively masterpieces of brave imagination and untethered genius
the only good that came from the prequels were the sword play and pod racing.
Watching uncle buck on Comedy Central.
What did bug do wrong? He was just trying to get laid. The bitch said no so he found a bitch that said yes.
Was trying to get laid in high school considered bad?
>>64121798
* was trying to get laid considered bad back in the 80's?
>>64121798
Shit happens, uncle buck was just trying to prove he was responsible. The guy just chose the wrong chick
>>64121858
That makes sense. But buck acted like he didn't have a dick and never tried to get laid
Another reason to watch Ash vs Evil Dead.
>>64121706
I forgot this shit even existed...
Who's this bitch?
y dey kill of dat black bitch
>Michael Arndt wrote the first draft of the script, based on George Lucas' original ideas for a new trilogy. It centered on the children of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Leia Organa being caught in the conflict between the New Republic and the remnants of the Empire, but the studio wasn't satisfied with his draft and J.J. Abrams wrote a new treatment along with Lawrence Kasdan.
>Arndt's draft centered on Kira (later renamed "Rey") and Sam (later renamed "Finn"). They would originally meet Luke halfway during their journey, and he'd guide Kira in the ways of the Force, but this was changed as Luke's presence detracted from their story. The plot was then changed to the search for Luke.
>Prior to Luke's removal, several McGuffins were considered, including the remains of Darth Vader, a forgotten Imperial weapon and an ancient scroll about the secrets of the Force.
>Brad Bird and Matthew Vaughn were reportedly approached to direct the movie before J.J. Abrams was selected.
>Elizabeth Olsen was approached to play Rey, but couldn't commit due to scheduling conflicts with AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON. Saoirse Ronan and Shailene Woodley were also considered before Abrams cast Daisy Ridley.
>Alex Pettyfer, Ed Speelers, Matthew James Thomas, Dayo Okeniyi and Ray Fisher auditioned for the role of Finn before John Boyega was cast.
>Chiwetel Ejiofor and James McAvoy were considered for the role of Poe Dameron before Oscar Isaac was cast. The character would originally die in the TIE Fighter crash, but Abrams changed his mind after meeting Isaac. The character was named "John Doe" in early drafts.
>Lee Pace auditioned for the role of Kylo Ren. Michael Fassbender was also linked to the role early into production.
>Jesse Plemons auditioned for the role of General Hux.
>Benedict Cumberbatch was approached to play Captain Phasma.
>Gary Oldman was considered for the role of Lor San Tekka.
>Hugo Weaving was considered for the role of Uber (later renamed "Snoke").
>In early drafts, the Resistence has its own secret weapon, known as "the Sledgehammer", which is able to simultaneously destroy several Imperial TIE Fighters. It is destroyed during the final battle at the Starkiller Base.
>In early drafts, Kylo Ren was older and more collected. When Adam Driver was cast, the character was changed into a younger and more reckless and unstable man.
>At one point, Hayden Christensen would return as the Force ghost of Anakin Skywalker. He'd appear as himself to Rey as as Darth Vader to Kylo Ren, since Anakin is the first Jedi to embrace both the Light and the Dark Side.
>There were plans for Billy Dee Williams to return as Lando Calrissian, but a deal couldn't be reached in time.
>There were plans for Denis Lawson to return as Wedge Antilles, but Lawson was not interested and declined.

Ja!
Ha ha! Oktoberfest!
Why didn't the X-Wings just hyperjump behind the Starkiller shields as the Falcon did?
Can x-wings hyperjump?
I'm a star wars noob, and I was always under the impression that only larger ships(and the falcon) could make hyperjumps while single-pilot ships couldn't or required some kind of aid (obi-wans ship in ep 2)
>>64122038
When does school start for you? You don't want to forget to finish all your winter break homework
>>64122038
Luke's could to Dagobah
In your opinion,
Which one was the best?
Well like most people here I'm a redditor so I enjoy all of these movies
>>64121552
Beyond Thunderdome. I liked how it showed max's progression as a character and how he has purpose, I liked the characters, and the music, the new lore behind the kids and savannah as well as the dome and final set peices
The Road Warrior
What are your thoughts on this film, /tv/? I'm about to see it for the first time.
>>64121534
hes not an actual psycho hes just schizo
OR
people in the corporate world are so self absorbed that they wouldnt notice a peer being a mass murderer (nor would they care)
>>64121534
i ratedobles/10
>>64121961
i rate itQuads/10
This is one of if not the most poorly written overrated movie of all time. If our society had any kind of taste that didn't involve lapping up mounds of shit then any intelligent human being would have looked at this plot and immediately would called this movie garbage
>Keanu Reeves is an undercover cop
>Who is terrorizing these group of hippy surfers
>Who're using their "smarts" to rob banks
>To "fight the system"
>Because the police force has Steve Bucemi constantly fucking things up for them
>So Keanu Reeves ends up siding with the bad guys
>Lets them go and the main villain ends up dying in the dumbest possible death ever
This should have been the first biggest red flag that Keanu can't act to save his life
>>64121526
The Force Awakens
>>64121555
I agree. As someone who doesn't even enjoy the Star Wars mythos I saw Force Awakens on a whim
Kylo Ren is a fucking sperg. He's like a pepe meme come to life
>FUCKING JEDI GIVE ME MY MAP REEEEEEEEE
Woman or autist confirmed
Point Break is a perfect action film
Episode VII is essentially a glorified fan fiction like Dragonball GT and thus not canon. Why do you guys take it so seriously?
except dragonball gt was good
>>64121502
Other way around man, the prequels have been rendered glorified fan fiction by all the ret-cons in this film.
>>64121546
George Lucas actually made the prequels..
so i just re-watched the prequels and i have to say these actually get a lot of undeserved hate. you can tell there was love and craft put into these worlds. varied creatures, some of the most alien and beautiful worldbuilding i've ever seen. yeah the script is bad but holy shit these settings and designs are beautiful. these are a work of a man who cares deeply for star wars.
>phantom menace

>OP makes valid points
LEL MEMES!! DUDE PLINKETT LMAOO!!!!!!
Was it misunderstood or just shit?
It was too patrician.
So far ahead of its time that even now people not ready
>>64121320
I never understood why is it hated so much.
It's pretty funny in its own retarded way.
Defend this Star wars babies. Star Trek will forever be the superior sci-fi franchise. Also JJ abrams movies aren't Star Trek so don't bring them up.
>>64121201
FROM THE DIRECTOR THAT BROUGHT YOU THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS
>>64121201
Star Trek > Star Wars

They do have shields
You are a retard
They also have Ion shots to penetrate other shields.
