This is definitely one of the most rewatch able 3 hour movies I’ve ever seen

Just rewatched The Batman That shit hits like crack.
English
@StolenDans cast Cavill, set it in 60s/70s/80s, and make it noir as fuck. similar to what the batman Reeves did but back in time. instant classic.
English
all the craig movies after casino royale were about how old and busted bond was
DCU HYPE@DCUHypeGuy
Henry Cavill is currently 43 Daniel Craig was 44 when Skyfall came out Henry Cavill is the obvious choice
English
@maryarchived such a weird thing, obvious win avoidance for no good reason. I think he'd actually do his best role because finally he can be in something with a really *really* good writer and director.
English
they know henry cavill would make them the most money and they WON’T do it. the excuse on paper is that he’s too old but that just doesn’t hold up.

Amazon has officially begun auditions to cast the next James Bond. Who do you want to be the next James Bond?
English
Genuinely think the issue with Kenobi is that people just didn’t get it. It was extremely clear, and maybe the show didn’t deliver as an episodic tale, but it was easily the most meaningful Star Wars to come out in years.
English
@SnailM3Up @coopercooperco its insane how they managed to make this fight not tense somehow. stupid setting and visuals.
English
@coopercooperco The saber fight on the Death Star wreckage (RoS) would've been gas if it didn't look so bland and boring. Literally some great choreography ruined by shit visuals

for how much the sequel trilogy lifts from the original, it’s surprising they never tried to light a lightsaber battle like this in any of them.
Best Movie Moments 🍿@BestMovieMom
George Lucas was so worried about "The Empire Strikes Back" (1980) being a failure that he self-funded the entire movie. He took out a massive bank loan against his own property to maintain total creative control from the studios.
English
Underrated film, and absolutely trumps the sequel trilogy as a whole
Star Wars Holocron@sw_holocron
STAR WARS: EPISODE II - ATTACK OF THE CLONES was released on this day 24 years ago
English
@poddtadre Yeah they’re fucking delusional constantly. And proof of this is that mainly the only thing they don’t like is Andor, which is the best Star Wars since OT. Weird fucking losers
English
when one of these adult nerd accounts gets to go to an advanced screening and they say something like "It’s not perfect, but there’s a lot for fans to love," you know it really sucks
Chris Killian@chriskillian
I’ve seen #TheMandalorianAndGrogu! Above all else, M&G is a super FUN Star Wars movie. It’s not perfect, but there’s a lot for fans to love. It plays like an extended episode with double the budget and moves from one incredible action set piece to the next. IMAX is a must.

@onlinenick2000 @TatooineSons You could just damage the weapon
English
@CableWrangler @TatooineSons You're also saying "there's no explaining it away", when the only movie it was used in had the ship it hit survive the impact lmfao. Dumbass thinks the same thing would somehow destroy something a million times bigger
English
The Holdo Maneuver is visually stunning.
The Holdo Maneuver is emotionally devastating.
The Holdo Maneuver is a perfect act of sacrifice.
But...
"Why hasn't anyone done this before?"
Because you have to ram your ship — at lightspeed — into the enemy fleet.
Which means everyone on your ship dies.
Including yourself.
So, you have to evacuate the ship first.
Or you're killing everyone you're trying to save.
It's not a tactic.
It's a goodbye.

@SarahLudford he doesnt need to be popular anywhere else to be the mp
English
Is there any evidence that Burnham is particularly popular outside a) part of the Labour party & b) Manchester?
English
I don't know who needs to hear this, but Andor's grim portrayal of homicidal rebels was dumb. Screw Luthen, Saw Gerrera, and Andor himself.
Star Wars is a fairy tale. The good guys are good. Han in ANH and Lando in ESB is as gray as they get (which is to say, not very.)
To say that the ends justify the means misses the entire point of Anakin's fall.
English
@onlinenick2000 @TatooineSons pure cope, theres no way to explain it away. its just a giant gaping plot hole in lore forever.
English
@CableWrangler @TatooineSons Because it's a giant space station the size of a small planet / moon that would only have a small hole in it if you rammed it. Even the first order's ship only got part of it cut off. It's not like the entire thing erupted. And the ships the rebels had were few and far between
English
@EWErickson Nah 100% couldn’t give a shit what Twitter thinks, obviously I’m gonna go watch a Nolan movie based on the odessey
English
Sorry y'all, but it is Christopher Nolan. I'll go see the Odyssey and probably enjoy it because it is Christopher Nolan, and I'm going to go into this assuming the guy who brought us Interstellar and the Dark Knight knows what he is doing better than Twitter.
English
@BestMovieMom Andor is up there with empire precisely because they let auteurs take it on and kept the filoni type Star Wars mega nerds out of the way. ironically it feels more like Star Wars than anything other than the OT.
English
Irvin Kershner directed The Empire Strikes Back over 175 days, going 50 days over schedule. George Lucas executive produced and stayed mostly off set. Kershner was Lucas's former USC film professor. He was paid 750,000 dollars for the entire production.
English
@CyrilH44 'normies wont go watch the new Nolan movie based on a Greek epic' is an insane hot take
English
I think the Odyssey needs incredible initial reactions to make a billion at this point. I’m sorry, but if they aren’t then normies aren’t gonna go see it because all of the negativity surrounding it rn
It won’t lose money tho, and I’m confident the reactions will be unbelievable
English
@CultureCrave entire trilogy was just an unrecoverable fumble im afraid
English
Rey explains why she took on the Skywalker name in a new Star Wars book
“I had to continue the fight and finish what he started. To stop Palpatine from rising again ... And to proudly wear my Master’s name while doing so, in honor of his life and his sacrifice. Luke Skywalker may be gone from this plane, just like all the Jedi who came before him ... but he will live forever. Because, in the end, I am all the Jedi. And maybe we all are"
English
@Mid30sManhattan itll be fine. its sold out in lots of places for imax and people like me who dont go cinema much will go check it out
English
Are we in a Twitter bubble or does The Odyssey actually have potential to bomb harder than Joker 2?
English
@starwars is this supposed to make me want to watch the film
