@KevinLamb74 Early drafts of RotJ made it clear that Leia and their mother both went to live with the Organas and the mother died shortly after.

ERROR: Fans call out Return of the Jedi blunder during scene where Leia says she remembers her mother, despite Padme clearly dying in Revenge of the Sith while Leia is barely a minute or two old. Should ROTJ be forgiven for this obvious continuity error or does it disqualify Episode VI from being considered canon?

@ATRightMovies Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. It's the kind of sprawling adventure movie I had been yearning to see when I was a teenager.

Which adventure film would you love to live in for a day?

@bestofstarwar No.

Let’s settle this debate, are you a fan of this change? Yes or no.

@TheCinesthetic I had no crowd response to this one opening night.

Say what you will about Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019), but opening night reactions for this moment were absolutely insane. One of those pure crowd-eruption theater experiences.

@SWT_Channel How's life?

If you met George Lucas in person... What would you ask him? Photo credit: instagram.com/jameltoppinpho…

@KevinLamb74 Honestly, I was a prequel defender back in the day, and I still don't dislike them, BUT they are very skippable. In recent years, I've realized it really is just three movies of exposition and set up.

Ironically you can also do the exact opposite and skip only Episode II. Then you see Anakin being made a padawan at the end of TPM and Boss Nass shouting "Peace!" only to have the very next Episode immediately begin with "War!" leaving the viewer to wonder "oh no...what happened?" Keep the creation of the clone army a mystery since it had all that Syfo-Dyas stuff that never went anywhere and just get right into it. It also allows OT Fett to be cooler since you don't see him as a child. And I say all that as a fan of AOTC.

@HMBohemond Prequel hate did not start with the Red Letter Media reviews. I was a prequel defender and everywhere on the internet, in pop culture and in my personal life, people would talk about how awful they were.

So I'm noticing the new wave of "the Star Wars Prequels were always hated!" cope from Sequel simps is that they bring up examples of CRITICISMS of the Prequels from before Red Letter Media's infamously bad reviews. This is hilarious, because criticisms of film are normal. Even the Original Trilogy has flawed points that fans critiqued at release and to this day. Citing that fans had criticisms before Red Letter Media induced Prequel derangement syndrome doesn't prove that they were "widely hated." It just shows that Prequel fans are more objective about what they love than Sequel simps. They're actually willing to criticize it. You can have criticisms of something even if it's objectively good.

@CinemaSupreme Spider-man 2 (2004)

If you could only watch 1 Spider-Man movie for the rest of the life and nothing else… Which one you picking?

@shutupari_ No

Do you consider this fat ?

@StarWarsDaily_ I wouldn't even remember him if I hadn't seen propaganda after Rise of Skywalker opened claiming that people think he's cuter than Baby Yoda. That felt like a studio plant. Mandalorian season 1 stole Episode 9's thunder.

What are your opinions of Babu Frik?

@IMAO_ I think this is the most fair assessment I've seen. Even people who love The Last Jedi have to admit that it felt like Rian Johnson took everything that fans had speculated about and swept it away.

The Force Awakens domestic gross was $937 million. No other movie has come close to that. There was a lot that movie did wrong, but it did some very fundamental things right to get that many people to see it. And then Rogue One was very entertaining and definitely made for Star Wars fans. I think people forget how great things were looking after Disney's first two movies and how much anticipation there was for The Last Jedi which most people assumed was going to be The Empire Strikes Back of the trilogy, improving on The Force Awakens's decent start. But The Last Jedi was like, "Everything you liked about The Force Awakens? That was dumb. We're doing something different."

@WhispurrAudio I disagree. I feel like Rian was still trying to keep it for families with a focus on appealing to Gen Z'ers. Just me though.

rian johnson dared to treat his audience like fucking adults who appreciate new stories that aren't just rehashes of the same old characters/tropes. the fanbase never forgave him for that

@untiloasis I walked out with such a mixed feeling, but mostly feeling "Star Wars isn't for me anymore." I don't have a problem with Luke's arc but his line about the rebellion being reborn made me feel like it was a reset to the status quo of the OT but with new characters.

i’ll never forget walking out of the theater going “wow that fixed EVERY problem i had with The Force Awakens i’m excited about star wars again” & then everyone lost their fucking minds

@Valiantes_ This feels like Disney is waving a white flag, acknowledging no matter how much they expand the property, the OT leads are iconic.

Han, Luke, and Leia together at Galaxy's Edge, Disneyland. Star Wars music playing. Finally after 7 years.

@fartagaz I really think The Mandalorian should have ended here or continued without Grogu. Someone got greedy.

just finished rewatching Mando S2 now trying to explain to my gf (who’s sobbing uncontrollably) why we have to watch “The fucking Book of Boba Fett” next instead of continuing

@fandompulse To me this was the most cynical choice Disney could have made. They wanted a safe choice but it has been years since The Mandalorian was the pop culture phenomenon that gave us "Baby Yoda." This also doesn't look bigger than an episode of the show.

The Mandalorian and Grogu is now tracking at $65M for its opening weekend according to World of Reel, which would set the record for the lowest Disney-era Star Wars opening, including Solo. The Force Awakens opened to $936M domestic. Six years of Kennedy-era movies, three seasons of Mandalorian, and the first theatrical Star Wars in six years may open below a film everyone called a box office disappointment in 2018. Is Disney's Star Wars brand beyond repair?

@RetroNewsNow I remember this because they showed a shortened version of the Batman Returns trailer during commercial breaks. First time I saw any footage of the sequel after three long years of hearing it was coming. As a kid, three years felt like an eternity.

📺On April 29, 1992, 'Batman' made its network television debut on CBS

@DCdaily Easy pick. The Batman Part II

You can only pick one DC project to watch, the rest get cancelled. Which one are you choosing?

@MickamiousG Blows my mind to read comments like this considering the prequel trilogy was treated like a crime against cinema when they were released. And George Lucas was a greedy man who "r*ped" everyone's childhood.

Disney ruined Star Wars. Actually not ruined, they destroyed Star Wars. Everything from 1999 to 2005 was epic. Everything after that was absolute dog shit and that’s being polite.

@plaeguinha Everyone can have a different opinion. I neither love The Last Jedi nor hate it. It has some elements I really like and some I just don't think work.

The Last Jedi is the second best Star Wars movie, but unbearable fans won't accept it until the movie becomes "Nostalgia" and Luke's hero's journey is beautiful.
