Thematically it is almost completely based on Empire, unlike Force Awakens, which is not really based on A New Hope.

Pieter Boelen 740 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I ran into this article the other day: http://observer.com/2018/07/film-crit-hulk-the-beautiful-ugly-and-possessive-hearts-of-star-wars/ It's a bit long and somewhat all over the place, but it makes a lot of fascinating points as well. Worth a read, as far as I'm concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe some of these people are functioning members of society when they're not posting this crap online. This is the fanbase that: Drove Jake Lloyd insane Made Hayden Christensen quit acting Made Ahmed Best consider suicide Drove Daisy Ridley and Kelly Marie Tran off social media Is continually harassing Rian Johnson, a good guy with no hate towards fans, on Twitter day in and day out It's times like this when I hate Star Wars. Yes, it's still Jerry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The generational shift in the media from boomers to genx/millennial means that instead of talking about Star Wars as a diverting entertainment it is talked about with religious-like reverence. It's a shift I'm uncomfortable with. Just compare watching someone like Letterman or Carson interviewing Hamill and Fisher in the 80s, when they almost had to be embarrassed to be talking about silly space popcorn movies, to now when Kimmel and Colbert are practically kissing the feet in cast interviews and acting like these are people who have been spoken to by God.

Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 It's funny new Star Wars supposedly prides itself on being progressive and SJW-y and all that, but until Rey gets a girlfriend, or Finn and Poe hook up, I call bullshit on that. In fact, here's Rey's girlfriend! I'll name her...Hope! Rey and Hope! Get it? Unlucky Bastard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
