I am new to /tv/ as I am from /sp/ and just saw TFA and had nowhere else to talk about it. I spent the last couple of days lurking here after watching the movie to get your guys take on things. I have 2 questions.
1.) What is with everyone saying the prequels were absolute garbage? I mean, they weren't the best movies ever but I thought everyone knew that their purpose was to dive into the huge universe that is Star Wars? I also thought everyone knew that Lucas himself did not intend to have Vader be this super badass villain and the whole concept of Hayden Christensen...

the prequel are garbage because humor>plot they took a lot of shit from the trilogy and made them worst(yoda using a lightsaber and training youglins with that random shit obi wan found in hans solo ship,jedi flip all over the place,shitty cameos for the sake of cameos and all that CGI)and the acting is terrible because the jedi has no emotion.i get that for something to work you have to ignore some stupid shit but everyone knewabout anakin going dark side and yet they didnt even tried to help him.also jar jar.the...

what's up /sp/
the prequel hating is a sort of meme. most of us agree they were mostly bad movies and the execution leaves a lot to be desired, but at least he put a lot of heart into it.
the problem is lucas is kind of a hack. an idea oriented hack, but still a hack. he sucks at logic/narrative progression and hes probably the worst dialogue writer that side of christopher nolan.
speaking of hacks, let's move to your next point. pretty sure at this point the percentage of true /tv/ (not the tourists and the plebs, although you seem like an ok tourist) that can't stand abrams is probably higher than tfa's reddittomato score. we've had this discussion more times than you can imagine and the consensus is that hes an unimaginative thief who is very effective at cut and paste (or cut, blender, paste) and decent from a technical standpoint (even with the lens flares and 1 speed pacing)
i think it's safe to say we hate abrams more now, he brings nothing creative to the table and keeps ripping things off because the critics keep blowing him. as a star trek fan, nothing in ANY movie triggered me harder than the 3rd act of into darkness.
personally, abrams is number 1 on my shit list. lindelof is a not so distant number 2 (imagine if he had been involved with tfa? holy shit) and they've definitely broken away from the pack
enjoy your stay man

Indeed, while Lucas might be a hack, Abrams is just a glorified SX monkey who HAS no vision.

Many humans are blind to their own flaws. It's not a female only thing.
>>64002116
>Women are incapable of looking at themselves objectively
It's also true for males
>will only identify with flawless characters.
Yeah.
Furiosa is flawed, she only has one arm.

what the fuck
>>64002088
She's a mindwiped knight of ren, the book hints pretty heavily at that, Kylo was actually calling her a traitor, not Finn who he couldn't give a shit about
>>64002284
How didnt he recognize her in the first tiime?
I got to the third scene where a character happens to overhear a private conversation before deleting this shit movie from my computer.
Is Aaron Sorkin the worst writer in Hollywood right now?
He's easily the most overrated. The Newsroom was an absolute joke. Glad this movie bombed.
>>64002006
back to reddit then moron
I cried at the ending for some reason
Now that the dust has settled, who the fuck shot Nice Guy Eddie?
Misfiring squib or some shit I don't remember
I guess you could go with the theory that Mr. White shot twice.
That's not as funny as a tryhard failed meme, though.
God
5>6>4>7>1>3>2
Only acceptable answer

They're all shite
The only acceptable answer.

If 8 is great people would bump 7 over 6 and maybe 4

why didnt the burglars just kill kevin first then rob the house?
>>64001789
they arent stone cold killers.
they only wanted to murder the little shit at the very end after kevin literally tried killing them multiple times.
That business on Cato Neimoidia doesn't... doesn't count.
What did he mean by that?
>>64001614
did they have sex or something?
>>64001657
They did it.
Now that the dust has settled, what do you think of The Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat Station?
glib

I thought the train was going to hit me.

Agreed. It baffling how many Americans still find fart jokes funny, how juvenile.

Is this the expanse thread?
>>64001361
What's Expanse? It looks cool.
>>64001822
Its fucking epic. But only 4 episodes are out so far, and episode 1 and 2 you will need to suffer through before 3 and 4 blows your mind away
I think Finn was his favourite character
>>64001336
he liked the strong anti-sexist female lead character
I use to watch this man summarize comics books instead of reading them myself. It was probably the darkest time in my life.
