If I can find a way to watch "The Mandalorian" I will, because it looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not onboard with that, but I see that it serves it purpose with women, girls, and children. I will say this much, had I seen Jar Jar Binks in Star Wars : " A New Hope". I may have never went to see another. I have enjoyed some of the memes comparing him to a Gremlin. Yoda's race was never truly explained, and who knows. I will say this The Rise of Skywalker was the best of the last three. I will not comment on that movie for two more weeks. There were somethings I wanted to see more of, and some things they could have left out. I will say it was worth the price of admission and more. It sort of gave me hope for the upcoming narratives of the Star Wars universe. I do still wish that they would make another Solo sequel, and of course the Bobba Fett movie. I know many compare "The Mandalorian" to Bobba, but he's no Bobba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better not disappoint me like the end of "Glass". "Solo" was "meh." I would like to see a Boba Fett movie, and the rumored Darth Vader movie, if ylthey're done as well as "Rogue One". I damn near think that's the best movie in the entire franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were somethings I wanted to see that weren't in it, and a few things that were in it that I didn't care to see. I will discuss those at a later time, when people have had ample opportunity to go and see it. I can't say it's the best, because I think that will always be reserved for "A New Hope" because it started the craze. I remember going to see the first three, and there were lines to the street from the box office. Few will remember the old Jerry Lewis theater on Spur 63, but then you couldn't purchase tickets online. King Kong, Jaws, Rocky, and Star Wars all had lines down to Spur63 for those movies. I was able to walk right up to the window and select tickets with no lines, and had decent seats for both showings that I've seen thus far. I've developed the old man saga of saying how much prices were back in my day vs. today. My dad would tell me he could go to the movies, a bag of popcorn, and a drink for 15 cents. When I was a kid it was $7, and now it's $30 for one person. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least why putting Kennedy in charge was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was actually a more-than-capable producer in the pre-Trump era, but a rabid case of TDS has her going full SJW. Sad! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is one of the main ones against a blu ray release of the original trilogy theatrical version. Supposedly a 4K release of the entire Star Wars films in a box set is coming this year, but it wont have the original versions. At least I have the VHS versions to watch them.
