Biodome 714 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 That's a shame. The Rise of Skywalker is now the only sequel title without a 15/70mm IMAX print. At least it explains why J. J. Abrams has been silent on that front. During the filming of The Force Awakens, his pretty IMAX cameras was pretty much the only thing he had been talking about.

Chen G. 3,949 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 If the film has a 4K DI, then having 70mm prints is a scam anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chen G. 3,949 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 At 142 minutes, Attack of the Clones was a proper slog. I had pacing issues with The Last Jedi, but they didn't have to do with the film's runtime, outright. Like I said, concluding the story takes time and so I'm fine with the running time on a conceputal level. But we won't know how well its used until we see the film. A. A.

I mean it's a decent, competently made score and it does build a little bit on TFA, but what big things did it bring to the table besides Canto Bight and The Spark?

Ii2 210 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 "The Saga Ends, The Story Continues" seems to suggest that it won't be a full end for the characters.
