His sister, his aunt and maybe the green alien chick at Jabba's palace. That's it, 3 women in the entire galaxy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEagle7 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Huh, I'm rewatching Solo and just realized that the voice of Lando's droid L3-37 is Phoebe Waller-Bridge, the writer/actress from Fleabag. I will henceforth only be able to think of the Millenium Falcon as an alcoholic British sex-addict. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toastrel Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Without reading six pages, the general agreement is that the last movie sucked the sweat off a Cowgirl's nuts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the topic on the old board, a lot of people liked the most recent movie The Rise of Skywalker. A bunch (like me) said it was average at best and suffered from being rushed/fast paced with too much trying to cram in (fix things people hated about TLJ, link it to all 9 movies, etc). There were a few that said it was terrible, even the worst SW movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawkins4prez Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Yeah but it looks soooooo good. That has to count for something in SW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green_Guinness Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Disney basically redid Episodes IV through VI down to the storyline with new characters while including some old ones to both appease the oldhead fans while trying to cultivate new ones. I get what they were going for, but the new films failed to captivate me. The Mandalorian series is better than the 3 new SW films. With all the cannon via books after ROTJ, they could have gone so many different ways. I know it would have been tough to keep the characters of Luke, Leia and Han going considering the ages of the actors, but they could have used the storylines with new characters, like their kids. In the books Luke had a son named Ben. Han and Leia had THREE kids: Jacen, Jaina and Anakin. They all had Force powers and were trained by Luke when he restarted the Jedi Academy. Hell, the whole story of the SW galaxy vs the Yuuzhan Vong from another galaxy could have filled at least 3 films. That was a great story and all they would have needed to do was tweak the characters to make their kids the main ones instead of them. BTW, there is an old story concerning Obi-Wan and Anakin pre-Attack Of The Clones that ties in with the Yuuzhan Vong story. Since I read the books I sniffed it out and found that it fit nicely with the ending of the story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think many like it for the nostalgia of getting early 90s Star Wars in their life. It was novel at the time. Luke getting married is weird. Luke experimenting with the dark side was dumb. Lemurs that cancelled the force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCEaglefan Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 There are a couple like Shadows of the empire that I really like. but the whole trying to make Star Wars sexy is kind of cringy in retrospect I didn’t read as far as the Vong people but I’ve heard people say they started getting pretty good then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCEaglefan Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I watched ROTJ with the kids the other day. I’m fine with the Emperor being back in IX but it makes the end of VI less great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
