Movie Discussion

[Mr 95%]

there is a scene early in Fight Club where the image of Tyler Durden flickers and disappears... made me think when he appears later on the plane that it was all in Edward Norton's mind

Is that at the hospital?

I don't remember now since it has been years since I watched 'Fight Club'

I have mixed feelings about the series so far. She's a decent character, but a bit of a contradiction on herself.

I've also had moments where I find the supposed levels of intelligence comparison between Leia and Obi Wan off putting (think of Obi slipping up in his forgetting to name Leia the alias when hitching a ride).

I am enjoying the series, but it does have some holes in the logic.

I think Ewen McGregor is great in it..but you are right..there are holes in the plot..I think when series are set before, but made after, an already established plot, there are always continuity problem..

So many holes. But Star Wars is n general is pretty plot hole filled. But this latest episode had so, so many holes.

In response to you both, that's why the Mandalorian is so much better received. They just didn't have to conform to pre existing timelines or head to specific destinations.

Bobba Fett also had some shackles for die hard star wars fans. I don't know if Disney are best served by trying to bring characters with history to the screen. There's always going to be people that have pre-existing ideas on where established characters should be heading and how they get there.

plenty of material Disney could have used in the old expanded universe, the old republic, standalone stories etc.

I think the only reason they haven't touched much of the Old Republic stuff because there's a remake of Knights of the Old Republic in development, and that is going to fully canonise the Revan lore.

But they do have the High Republic animated show in the works, plus the Star Wars Eclipse game set during the High Republic, and a Disney+ live action series set around the fall of the High Republic.

...and saying all that reminds me that Disney is going to milk Star Wars for all it's worth.

Absolutely Hacky..never a truer comment made..

the High Republic set 200 years before "A New Hope" in which Obi Wan states that the Jedi were guardians of peace in the galaxy for a thousand generations before the dark times of the Empire... where precisely can they take that idea?

glad Revan is getting done... an interesting character that straddles both the light side of the force and the Dark... would like to see Malgus in a live action role, too

The same as they are doing with Marvel.

Is there a series of just Darth Vader? Like when he actually is Darth Vader?

He is the only reason I watched the original 3 movies.

Not yet. As others have mentioned, Disney will probably do a series in their quest to milk it for all it's worth though.

Nah, but the Obi-wan series is basically about Darth Vader.

Do you rate the series?

 

[Hacky McAxe]

Do you rate the series?

Yep. I enjoy it. It's better than the Boba Fett series. But the Mandalorian series is better.

I will say this without spoiling anything. In the Obi-wan series, Vader gets brutal. Really brutal. Pure evil. It's great.
