mrbellamy 6,278 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Last time with TFA, they did indeed include portions of "The Falcon" with the new Star Tours. Though it wasn't like we could make out much of anything, anyway, so it was pretty useless. But unmistakable in retrospect, especially 3:22-29.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Bought my tickets for Saturday the 16th at noon. Seeing it with my sister and brother, as is tradition. My other sister couldn’t care less about Star Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balahkay 627 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I'm a little confused... I was looking at tickets and all my nearby theaters have showings December 14 during the evening hours. I thought it opened December 15 in the US? Is it normal for a movie to open the evening before the advertised release date? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstrox 6,651 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Yes, in huge blockbuster movies, you'll traditionally see early showing spilling over into Thursday night. I worked at a movie theater from 2001-2007, and I recall seeing it for the first time maybe around Spider-Man 2. Not that it didn't happen before that, but that may have been my first experience with it. We had taken off of work for the three Hobbit movies and The Force Awakens (and used the rest of the work day for Xmas shopping and lunch), but after maternity leave my spouse doesn't have a lot of time to frivolously take days off - so we're at the mercy of babysitting. We'll be seeing it Saturday or Sunday morning, which is what we did with Rogue One. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,278 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Used to be that the first showings were always at midnight, often in multiple screens at once, and then regular times starting in the morning. But now in the last few years seems like all the shows start at 7 the night before release and they have start times for every hour, sometimes until 1 or 2 in the morning for the really big event stuff like Star Wars. I feel like I actually didn't really see that happening everywhere until after the Aurora shootings, but not sure if that's true. In general it's a definite improvement in terms of crowd dispersal.

Popular Post toothless 963 Posted November 17, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 17, 2017 Numerous media are live tweeting the press conference of Johnson : https://twitter.com/SWUcom https://twitter.com/IGNFRA https://twitter.com/PremiereFR Here are some tweet I google translated and I made small modifications: Quote I had the freedom to write, I just read the Force Awaken script wondering what would happen next. It was no different from the other films I made Quote Yes, it will be the longest Star Wars. It will last 2:30 end credits included, it was the right duration according to us. Quote Empire strikes back was a reference for us in terms of photography, but we did not want to just copy another Star Wars movie so we found a balance. Quote I spoke with George Lucas at the beginning of the process but it was very general, he was not directly involved in the movie. Quote The best memory of @rianjohnson on the shooting of the movie #LesDerniersJedi: when he attended the first recording session of John Williams. "I had goose bumps! " Quote Mark Hamill offered me a lot of ideas for the screenplay, but I had to explain to him that it had to be great [...] I wanted him to understand first and foremost what Luke Skywalker had become, that he attaches and identifies better with the character. Quote #TheLastJedi will pay "moving" tribute to actress Carrie Fisher through a few scenes, promises @rianjohnson. Quote The scenario of the film has not changed much between the first version and the final version of the script (only small details). "I never question my creative choices," says @rianjohnson. Quote Rian asked to change the end of ep 7: R2 goes to the island see Luke and not BB8 as it was planned initialy.

I mean, you’re right, every single day. I’ll tell you what’s funny, I’ll speak to one day that wasn’t on the shoot but it was when we were working with John Williams and we were in the scoring stage and we recorded the opening fanfare. And to be there with a 100 piece orchestra with John Williams conducting, and to be as close to the orchestra as I am to you, and to feel that music hit your bones...[mimes being knocked backward] Amazing.

TFA, yes. But we're yet to see any sign that JW's total music written for TLJ comes close to the film's runtime. I'm predicting he spotted & wrote about 130 minutes of music and had less than 10-15 minutes worth of substantial alternates. Just something about Rian's process seems very confident and assured, unlike JJ's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The credits on the TFA Bluray are actually much longer than they were theatrically, can't remember what they added but it's why they altered Williams's suite to include the full "Rey's Theme" piece as well as "Scherzo for X-Wings". Attack of the Clones's credits are 6 and a half minutes which would make the film proper about 2 hours and 15 minutes. I assume Last Jedi's credits will be longer but I doubt they'll be 15 minutes so I think it will still end up being the longest either way, but just barely.

mrbellamy 6,278 Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I don't think so. Theatrically, Rey's Theme was the abridged "Jedi Steps & Finale" version but on the Bluray it's the 3-minute theme track from the OST. The big complaint was that you lose that great high-octane version. MikeH 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
