crumbs 14,318 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I'm confused by the term, 'Sith Trooper.' Wasn't Kylo abandoning the old ways of the Jedi and the Sith? Is he under the control of Emperor Palpatine now? Can't believe the film is only 5 months away and we have no idea what the heck the Emperor's involvement in the story is. But here's hoping we get some glorious choral renditions of the Emperor's Theme, just to close out the saga. Williams' writing for the Emperor in ROTJ was some of his strongest in the entire series. greenturnedblue and Smaug The Iron 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course his line about abandoning the old dichotomy came before his humiliation on Crait, which I have to imagine will be a pivot point for his character.

But hey, the more bonkers and convoluted the story, the more potential for the score... Well, the closest reference to Williams is the shot at 5:37, from his AFI ceremony. Who is the grey-haired bearded guy in the screen behind JJ on the left? The label underneath says JOHN someone, but it looks nothing like Williams.

crumbs 14,318 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I generally love RLM's videos but there's a clear bias in this one from the start. Only mentioning Terrio's two worst writing credits (the awful Snyder Batman movies, both of which he shared writing credits with others) and not even mentioning his Oscar-winning screenplay for Argo (written solo). Hardly some talentless hack. The writing was the least of those films' problems; not even Tony Kushner could save a Zack Snyder film from being an unmitigated pile of shit.

mrbellamy 6,289 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I think Last Jedi snubbed Comic Con and waited for Disney’s D23 thing instead.

Bayesian 1,363 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 If the production team on TROS is as harried as we’re led to believe, I’m sure they’re happy to have another month before debuting more teaser material! Fortunately, JJ surely has Disney’s top men, women and legal minor interns on the case and we’ll never see evidence of the rushed schedule in the finished film. 👍🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
