Disco Stu 15,495 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 So what do you reckon that set's meant to be? Not looking for a summary of what every twobit clickfarm has speculated. What do YOU think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Illustrious Jerry 3,356 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 The lighting is stellar. Looks like a patio, stone floors. Maybe it's on Ahch-To? Are we done there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 More than likely. It's gorgeous design work. Say what you will about the narrative-character-thematic content of these new films, their technical aspects are second-to-none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Illustrious Jerry 3,356 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 The FX are excellent, the sets nothing less. The flying archway suugests something hewn out of rock, which is why I though Ahch-To initially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The flying archway suugests something hewn out of rock, which is why I though Ahch-To initially. Yeah it's definitely got a similar "carved out of the natural setting" feel, but is sanded to such a shine and features such ornate latticework carving, it doesn't have the rustic feel of Ahch-To that was befitting of its monastic origins.

Truth be told, I do like some of the changes made for that movie; but they're weird all the same. Especially how they lead to a sequel hook that doesn't seem to fit in any way with the sequel books. Oh well, we'll never find out where it would have led anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I wanna know what Andrew Stanton is gonna do next. Is he banned from live-action features for the rest of time after John Carter? I see that he directed a couple of episodes of Stranger Things season 2 after his "make good" (Finding Dory), but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,355 Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 Looks like after Finding Dory he planned to direct live action, but nothing is announced yet https://www.slashfilm.com/andrew-stanton-live-action/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstrox 6,651 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I'm sure he'll be back directing live action - he just won't be given a trillion dollar budget. I'm also interested to see what Brad Bird does next in live action, since Tomorrowland flopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,355 Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 Bird's been developing a movie based on the 1906 San Francisco earthquakes for years now, but I guess with Tomorrowland flopping its back-burnered once again. Now that Incredibles 2 is a hit maybe he will be able to do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Yes! It's so funny how both directed ambitious risky family sci-fi films for Disney, both flopped, and both went back to direct sequels to their biggest Pixar hits to recover.

Popular Post _deleted_ 203 Posted August 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2018 As a hongkonger, I was thrilled to see Tran as Rose. Thank you Rian Johnson!!!☺️ Tho I think the Sequel Trilogy needs better writing 😈. Music is very important to Star Wars. I hope JJ would give us a climatic battle so that John Williams can complete his Ninth with a bang! JJ, the ninth Star Wars Skywalker-Saga movie should sound like the ninth work in a series of symphonies!!!! The ninth Space Opera!

Nick1Ø66 4,714 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I like KMT, and for all my problems with TLJ, her character wasn't one of them. She's a good actress, seems like a great person, and I hope we see a lot more of her. And what those online trolls did to her flat out sucked. But her reaction here seems to be...er, a little over the top to me. _deleted_ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_deleted_ 203 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Rose was okay in her intro but kissing Finn while potentially killing Leia is 🤮🤮to me cuz honestly OT> PT+ST. Rian Johnson, what were you thinking? I think her reaction is certainly very emotional.👍 Over the top? Yeah, maybe.👍 Just like her character Rose... 😉 👻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
