Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker : Anyone actually excited about this?

Anyone actually excited about this?

Considering mine is the second thread…and the first was posted yesterday😮
I'm assuming not😂 but this is where we are…does the prospect of nine give ya the vapors?

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

I'll pirate it and seed for life.

Star Wars is dead to me since The Force Awakens.

Shame, but as Picard says - all good things must come to an end.

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

TFA kept me on board…warts and all. And there WERE warts! The third act was a mess…but I felt there was enough to build on and correct the course. But now the TLJ has shown how lost the direction is…and I am without an argument to justify TFa now👎😠 guess I'm still wrapping my head around the fact that star wars is polishing the silverware on the titanic😟

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

You'll be unhappy with IX, the media will call you a Carrie Fisher hater for being so, everyone will skulk and it will eventually be rebooted with nobody watching it anymore.

Sort of like Star Trek: Discovery!

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

I can't say that is beyond reason. I have been called many things for this opinion…sometimes even observant😂 mostly a fanboy hater. The funny thing…when I like TFA I was also called a fanboy…leading me to the question…what is a fan boy?

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

You,pirate it?..I hope to live that day

Well, this is a tomb. I'll make them feel at home

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

I am.

What are you excited about?

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Seems a good portion of the fandom really enjoyed TLJ and are anxious to see the conclusion to the trilogy. And I respect that although I do not agree. Like many I see no reason to be excited. But like it or hate it…one must agree that the TLJ
Has done harm to the property and the fandom.

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

I liked TLJ overall, even though it did have its problems. I don't think it's ruined things beyond repair like a lot of people seem to….

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

It's done a lot of damage. Once again…I have no problem with liking it…hell…i love Batman v. Superman…but I would be doing my ability to discern
Public sentiment a disservice to not acknowledge its toxicity to the property. I think the first evidence of the damage to star wars was solo…but star wars celebration will probably be the most definitive evidence towards the backlash and will help to show how deep the divide is.

I think the biggest hurdle for nine is…how do you pacify angered fans…while not angering already placated ones? This is why I believe JJ has his work cut out for him…and if he succeeds…that man deserves a bonus👍

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Solo is the first one I really have a hard time enjoying. It doesn't grow on me at all either. I couldn't even get interested by watching behind the scenes stuff. It's just so "meh"….

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Yeah…it's like most of my complaints for DSW (Disney star wars…not the shoe store😂👍) a rush to sell us a product. Solo could have been good…anything star wars could…but when you put a stop clock on creativity…mistakes can happen.

Dig talking with you jan! I know we don't always agree…but we do make disagreement tolerable…maybe even enjoyable😁👍

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

No, but I will probably see it in the theater.

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

I'm really on the fence. Have never missed a premiere since the inception of star wars…but I have no desire to see it. This is a problem as I am very much a completionist and hate quitting on things…but I really hate what this mess has become…what to do what to do? Maybe the hype will be soft and I can buy a ticket to another movie and sneak in to star wars…like I did solo😉👍

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Lara Croft tomb raider anniversary : NO

Well, this is a tomb. I'll make them feel at home

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

You're not excited about the anniversary?

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Ask "the real lara"😉

Well, this is a tomb. I'll make them feel at home

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

But…but it was you that said it…two posts above👍 are you in the outs with miss croft?

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Fuck this PC bullshit.

I was optimistic after TFA.

TLJ was fucking garbage.

I really wanted to like. I truly did. I loved the original, obviously, and I think ROTS is awesome.

This just constantly forced unfunny jokes and ridiculous love stories that made me cringe. The Kylo Snoke scene nearly made me walk out of the room.

Luke wasn’t Luke, and even Mark Hamill said it was out of character.

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

I disagree about Luke, but I get why people think that.

I do agree about the uneven tone. It goes way overboard with the jokes, especially at the beginning. The casino section could have been cut way back. Luke's third lesson to Rey needed to be in there.

From the moment Luke shows up on Crait until the end, the movie is nearly perfect. I love just watching that section of the movie.

I also have to say TLJ has the best 3D conversion of any of the Star Wars movies so far. I know that has nothing to do with the quality of the film itself, but it is cool to see.

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Yeah…that👍 I don't even mind a subtle message…just off set it with light saber awesomness enough to fool me! It's not hard…I'm a knucklehead😂👍

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Kudos to most people on this thread for keeping such a civil tone, despite the sensitive subject.

Hey, it's a kind of magic!

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Absolutely! So you ever going divulge where you disappeared off to?😂

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Some of us were first in line to see The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones Russell.

We know what disappointment feels like and are prepared to just have a laugh this time around

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Some of us were first in line for star wars when it was called star wars…but that would make me old😂

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Yeah but Star Wars was great!

Empire was much darker and I even like Jedi.

It was after that when it all went downhill (With Sith being a little blip towards what it should have been).

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

No disagreement here.

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Juan: The kudos was to you amongst others! Your replies are good-natured as always. I hated TLJ immensely myself btw!

DF: No.

Hey, it's a kind of magic!

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Good stuff, always nice having you around. Let's make sure you become a regular irregular around here this year

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

A little.

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Well that's something isn't it😉👍

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

I'm always hoping that the next Star Wars movie will be something special.

TLJ came close to being what I was hoping for but it was completely spoiled by being 35% bullshit and those damned dramatic scenes that completely missed the mark.

Mostly just Rose's storyline and the stupid bullshit Luke watching Kylo sleep while thinking things about stuff garbage.

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

I too hope for something special with every installment…unfortunately for me…TLJ was short bus special😂 did not do anything for me! But I dig that many did enjoy it…which is a whole different mess. Now we have a movie that must satisfy last jedi lovers..while also trying to bring disgruntled fans back to the franchise. It must unite a divided fan base…tall order!

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Really curious to see where they go with it.

Hate speculating so just gonna wait and hope it’s awesome.

Re: Anyone actually excited about this?

Oh I can't wait!
