Star Wars - The Last Jedi

Obsidian was actually beginning work on KotOR III before Disney shut down Lucasarts in 2013, they had some concept art.

Lucasarts was founded by George Lucas himself in 1982.

This is worth a watch if you're a fan of Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) or Admiral Ackbar (Tim Rose). Both actors cried on set of SW: The Last Jedi..

The best part TLJ was when it ended. It was terrible

Solo was not-terrible and actually enjoyable. Probably the first Star Wars movie since the original trilogy which was majorly enjoyable.

She was good in Room, but she seems wooden with a flat personality in other movies. I only recall seeing her in two other movies though.





I'm not impressed with what I'm seeing about the upcoming Star Wars movie. Pretty sure I'm going to skip "The Rise of Skywalker" at the theater and wait for home video. I won't likely enjoy the story, but some of the effects can be entertaining for one viewing.

Yeah, it started off pretty decent with JJ's movie, even though it was copy & paste of Ep IV and lacked imagination. Admittedly, "Ruin" Johnson (nickname given by "Overlord DVD") has mangled the plot consistency, outright forgetting major plot points. For example, Luke didn't give up hope and desire to be in total isolation for the remainder of his life... in the first movie, he left a map to his location! Luke premeditated the whole plan allowing himself to be found. Also, Ruin turned Snoke into a generic baddie with no backstory. The character's only there to serve as an antagonist and nothing more. Ruin killed him off too, so now JJ would have to do some major backtracking and clever writing if he decides to patch the plot holes surrounding this character. 

SW: Rise of Skywalker - Doomcock comments on the latest leaks & spoilers.


Personally, I wasn't planning on seeing it theaters anyway, so I don't mind a few spoilers.

I've never considered myself to be a hardcore fan of Star Wars. I'm more of a casual fan. But I can't help being both fascinated and sickened by how badly Disney has been fu*king up Star Wars.

The worst part is seeing how they ruined the old characters. They shat on the original roles and actors in the worst ways possible (lousy scripts, mischaracterization/disregarding their true personalities & motivations, meaningless and nonsensical deaths). Also, writers & directors disrespecting and disregarding feedback the actors gave during filming. I dare say, the original actors were the only ones involved in the new trilogy who had an emotional investment in those roles and expressed real love/appreciation for the fans. Everybody else was in it for the money, political posturing, and scoring SJW points.

I remember you mentioning that before. I'm not ragging on anyone for watching the movies, nor suggesting they not go & see it. I'm mostly just venting here.

Today, I watched a few clips (on YT) of the prequel trilogy, showing Anakin's progression and conversion to the dark side. I have to say that that (the plot, script and acting) was cinematic genius compared to the new Disney trilogy. The lightsaber battles (in the prequels) were immensely superior as well.

Chronological order isn't that important though. I thought it was nice you'd get to see characters again at the beginning of their journey after you've already grown to know them throughout the series, especially the Clone Troopers that you, randomly, see from being cadets to rookies to veterans and eventually arc troopers. Some of those characters feature in the first season right up to the end.

I heard they're going to do a spin-off of a group of characters that was introduced in the last season: the bad batch.

Oh, just you wait until the end of season 7. Heartbreaking.
