@Darlington_SW @J0hnADouglas @BrianNiemeier It is unfortunately now as Lucas was removed from the creative process.

@OLDFASHION64990 @J0hnADouglas @BrianNiemeier STAR WARS IS THE CORPORATE SCHLOCK YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT

The fans told them which movies to make, but Disney would rather lose billions than admit fault.

@Darlington_SW @J0hnADouglas @BrianNiemeier Oh for sure! Should have kept Michael Arndt & George Lucas in the creative process.

@OLDFASHION64990 @J0hnADouglas @BrianNiemeier Dude they spent like a billion dollars on a trilogy and they had no plan for it when they started. This isn't a fan problem. The writing sucked.

@J0hnADouglas @BrianNiemeier Audiences need to expand their tastes beyond the same corporate schlock they consume every single year.

@J0hnADouglas @BrianNiemeier Fans will almost never be pleased with anything. I watch films to see the intention and different perspective/interpretation filmmakers present in there original or adaptations of stories. Some are good and others less successful.

@J0hnADouglas @BrianNiemeier Do you think fans or people in general know what they really want to see in movies? All of these self-proclaimed online critics know jack shit about film as a art form or craft.

@J0hnADouglas @BrianNiemeier Studio/corporate tampering: Magnificent Ambersons, Batman Forever, Legion (1990), Once Upon A Time in America, Once Upon a Time in the West, THX-1138, American Graffiti, Dune (1984), Alien 3, Frantic, Fistful of Dynamite, Blade Runner, all of Sam Peckinpah's work, etc.

@OLDFASHION64990 @BrianNiemeier Wrong. Bullying is good and it makes studios reverse bad decisions. See below

@BizarroMondo76 Would be amazing if an workprint could be found to restore Blatty's vision for Legion. All we have for his director's cut is VHS Dailies.🤢

Christopher Nolan shot Batman Begins (2005) entirely on 35mm film, refusing digital cameras. He told American Cinematographer magazine, “Film is the best way to capture the texture and gravity of light.” He has refused digital ever since.

@Catlover10000S @BrianNiemeier It's why I like John Ford, George Lucas, David Lynch, William Friedkin, Francis Ford Coppola, Tim Burton, Woody Allen, Martin Scorsese, Stanely Kubrick, James Cameron, Quentin Tarantino, Orson Welles, Mel Brooks, and George Miller.

@OLDFASHION64990 @BrianNiemeier When all the "artists" care about is hitting all the demographics, instead of pleasing the fandom with a good story, they are setting themselves up for failure.

@Catlover10000S @BrianNiemeier I would prefer a singular over-lining vision for a film narrative rather than studios pulling in focus groups to warrant the safest results.

@jujuman404 @Kryptomightguy It's a childish reaction that has gotten so old to talk about.

@Kryptomightguy I understand what Lucas is going for with the idea that Anakin going back to who he was before turning. But it being Hayden & not Shaw is disrespectful. Like if I was in Shaw's shoes I'd be offended

Shaw. It makes no sense for Anakin’s force ghost to be him in his prime, and something Luke wouldn’t even recognize, instead of obviously being his current age as a ghost. It’s also very disrespectful to the OG actor who deserves to have their existence acknowledged in this film.

@Kryptomightguy The thing is it DOES MAKE SENSE. George Lucas the creator (writer, director, producer, co-director ESB/ROTJ) explained this over 25 years ago. youtube.com/shorts/DFUsYqw… I am not telling you what to like or dislike.

@BadFilmTakes1 The combination of David Lynch, Mark Frost, Mary Sweeney, Angelo Badalamenti, and Julee Cruise made for a variety of complex emotions that fed into the light & dark in human hearts.

I’m rewatching Twin Peaks, and I’ve made it to Season 2. My biggest takeaway so far is that this show would not be the same without Angelo Badalamenti. I hear one note from his score, and I’m whisked away to Twin Peaks in a snap.

@dasinfogod @StarWarsDaily_ "if you got a hero who can't be killed then where's your drama. Well here what I've done is said well this guy can be killed but don't worry. He's not the important one, "there is another" so it's a cheap trick and it WORKS." -George Lucas youtu.be/vqnjzVX8EKA?t=…

@StarWarsDaily_ Delete the line, “No. There is another.” It has no adequate payoff in the subsequent film. Either that or make someone else the “other”; making Luke & Leia siblings is cringe in so many ways. But this relates more to the many flaws of Return of the Jedi. Empire is perfect.

If you could change one thing about The Empire Strikes Back what would it be?

@dark__woke @SW_Fan10000 @jadexskywalker I am interested in hearing why you think the Prequel Trilogy contradicted "fundamental things" from the Original Trilogy.

@SW_Fan10000 @OLDFASHION64990 @jadexskywalker I actually care a lot about the story, and that's why the prequels are cancer. They take a giant shit on the story the OT tells and actively contradict so many fundamental things, while also just being really shitty movies in their own right, which doesn't help.

The original any day. The largest issue with the Hayden one is how they filmed it. Bro looks evil as fuck, not a redeemed Jedi whatsoever. And the sticking his face on the other actor’s body 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@jadexskywalker Personal preference is fine; it is just when people are telling artists what they should and should not do with their art I find that ridiculous. P.S. This is not to say that collaboration is wrong or that George Lucas wouldn't listen to opposing arguments when making the film.

@OLDFASHION64990 I can hear why and still not like it. I prefer it as it was originally.
