i have to agree with Forresto on the RotJ front. I watched the trilogy last week and I was kinda stunned on how much I disliked a lot of Jedi. That said, the film has some of my favourite cinematic moments, hands down. It's so clashing, but in that sense, Jedi was made up of some incredible moments that put it over the top (Lando, the space battle in its completeness, Luke vs. Vader as an capstone emotional piece over just a choreographed fight) but I actually fast forwarded through part of the Ewok 'village' bit and didn't care for the first act. I didn't think I would ever do that, it felt wrong but I realized just how little I missed.

That said, I did spy out at least 2-3 dead rebel commandos laying around, but yeah, not that compelling or dangerous. How were they gonna storm the front of a well defended complex with that again? Now, get rid of the ewoks with the naga-like original inhabitants that were hunting the Imperials at every turn and we've got an interesting bit of evil vs. evil storytelling. There was an article a while back about the iterations that the script went through and some of the original elements were pretty compelling (like the Rebels winning a Pyrrhic victory that all but destroyed them too).

Rogue One... we'll have to see, but it's hitting a lot of the right notes for me so far.

I watched a cut of Jedi last night, with Jerjerrod's deleted scenes (basically and poorly) re-added...

I liked it more.

Try cutting the Ewoks. Makes it much better.

Okay, so, I go and cut the Ewoks out, and you know what happens?

I can see it now...

We sit down and watch it... We get to that part... And then.. my Toddler Goes Quiet.

I reach out to him to see what's wrong, and he turns around... Slowly... With a look in his eye...

and the last thing I hear, comes from his lips...

"Yub Yub...."

This one was pretty nice (trailer mashup):

Given that it's been in Rebels, I'm glad they're sticking with the Hammerhead corvette design. I don't want all the different creators creating different things and having very little consistency and continuity.

Glad you feel that way because Disney has a guy (possibly leading a department) whose entire job is to make sure everything is consistent across everything they produce.

Dollars to Doughnuts the fact the hammerhead shows up in Rebels and R1 means it will show up at some point in Armada. And frankly, there is plenty of room for it, like a heavier, more expensive slightly sturdier close/medium small ship akin to the raider that would pair well with CR90s or Liberties

A guy? I thought it was a ruling triumvirate: the Lucasfilm Story Group of whom Pablo Hidalgo was simply one. These folks are supposed to talk to the creators (J.J. Abrams, Gareth Edwards) and/or their flunkies and screen writers, in order to try to create something relatively seamless.

However, my guess is that when push comes to shove, the creators have more push, and whatever they believe will make for a better story will push any concerns for continuity out of the way. The LSG's role at that point is to paper over the seams in the plaster with contrivance. Hopefully good contrivance.

Darth Vader looks absolutely pissed when he marches in on Krennic like that.

He looks like he is about to discard some defense tokens.

Critical hit in 3...2...1...

New angle exposing a lot of the ship over the right X-Wing in the Korean trailer. 1:50.

This got me ******* pumped all over again.

Link?

I'm thinking this is what he was referencing. It's a mon calamari ship for sure.
