What made these movies feel so soulless?
What made these movies feel so soulless?
starslop
grow up
special effects aren't special any more.
LOOK GUYS MY SPAMBOT POSTED IT AGAIN
no lucas
Sorry it isn’t some Russian arthouse film about some genocide or whatever
There's 100,000,000,000 hours of youtube videos who can explain it better than I.
soulless
The fact that they literally have no soul and are safe bland assemblyline committee decided slabs of grey goop with a brandlabel printed on.
Daisy a cute tho.
I think it's primarily the completely lack of soul in the movies due to handing creative control to corporate jews
I watched 15 minutes of one of them and the impression I got was that the director should make fantasy instead and stay away from science fiction.
souless? More like soulFULL. here's a TikTok of me with my switch.
rey is not a nudist
poor digital camera/lens choice
trying to be realistic when star wars needs the autistic lucas dialogue
Marketing and internet outrage
Daisy Ridley kinda looks like a younger version of Keira Knightley and Ella Purnell looks like an even younger version.
Because they aren't movies. They're incoherent collages of scenes that producers thought would look good in trailers.
Another, in a long line for force fed white woman and black man lead characters. The story doesn't matter but the pairing on screen does.
Completely detivative, not unique, trends seen in other high budget movies such as Marvel humor
all mauler btw
kek do you have a link with sound I'm really curious what this faggot is singing about
We should bring back bullying
star wars is sword fights but they made it glow
The other movies were pretty much the vision of one guy. These movies were corporate, made by committee.
How would you have written them?
Hard mode
You have to include the main trio to satisfy the fans
You can't use prequel stuff to satisfy the producers
you need a female protag to satisfy Kathleen
you need to kill off Han to satisfy Harrison.
The Yuuzhan Vong will always be a shitty fucking concept and I will never understand idiots defending them
just start by hiring better actors, make sure to have a single main director for all 3 movies and actually have the original cast reunite in the first movie before killing off Han
normie tier woke slop casting
marvel tier le quirky writing which didnt at all feel authentic to Star Wars
made by corporate committee decision to appeal to girls simply to break into the 8-20 female market that the Star Wars brand was struggling with
completely rehashed story of the original movie point for point complete with ANOTHER death star, but this time its just super duper big and can blow up 5 planets at once
Also set on Tatooine again (ugh they call it something else so its totally new!), with the empire as the bad guys AGAIN, and Stormtroopers as the badguys AGAIN, and a Han Solo like guy helping a Luke like girl AGAIN on the Millennium Falcon AGAIN
all safe fan service pandering
There was this whole "nerds are COOL!" thing that started in the mid 2000s with stuff like gamestop and g4 ect. and I feel like this movie was the final nail in the coffin for that sort of thing. After that, only the biggest loser retards were getting hyped by something like Star Wars anymore
Adaptation of Fate of the Jedi with Jaina Solo as main character.
Daily Starshitter salt mine is open
It's years later and Luke has his new Jedi order set up on Yavin 4 in those cool temples
Main Lead is Han and Leia's Daughter who is traveling to Yavin to train in the force since she showed potential back home.
The daughter (who I'll just call Hannah cause it has Han in it) is a shut in nerd because her parents are over protective out of fear of Imperial remnants. She is a cute dork stereotype who can act as the every man who can get exposition dumbed on.
Luke has a son around the same age as Hannah (I'll just call him Ben). He's going to be training too.
Old cast have sweet reunion on Yavin 4 reintroducing their kids.
Han sticks around with Chewie and 3PO to keep an eye on Hannah because Leia is busy running New Republic shit and Han wants something to do since he has no real responsibilities now.
As the kids train Hannah is shown a natural gift in the force and Luke is super impressed showing her most of his attention in training.
As training continues it's determined that Ben is completely deaf to the force.
Ben is devasted, Luke is too though he won't admit it. The grandson of the chosen can't use the force.
Ben's animosity for Hannah grows. He becomes more jealous of her relationship with his dad and tries putting Hannah in danger to get Han to pull her out of training.
Ben fails because Chewie sees the whole thing and saves Hannah
Chewie tells Han and he snaps at Ben. He says he's taking Hannah home because he can't trust Luke to keep her safe.
Luke snaps too, saying Ben cost the order a powerful member, causing Ben to run off.
Cont

Three types of design philoaophies for nuWars:
copy pasting from the original films
copy pasting from the original films but making it bigger
copy pasting from the original films but making it a different color
Cont.
Movie ends with Han's funeral everyone is sad
Luke promises that he'll find Ben and Avenge Han
Luke leaves his order to make up for his mistake
Hannah demands he takes her with him
Film ends with the two leaving Yavin to find Ben
wanting to turn an entire generation of men into monster fuckers
Funny how TLJ was universally hated at the time but in retrospect it’s the only bearable one
lol no, the your mom joke was enough to put me off from the movie
The only time they actually made an original ship design everyone hated on it and said it wasn’t “realistic”. I don’t care what they say, the bomber looked cool and it’s Star Wars I don’t care that technically the bombs wouldn’t work in space
Over-saturation is a real thing. I don't hate Star Wars. It's just repetitive right now. Lightsabers. Spaceships. Got it. If Star Wars went away for even 5 years, I would absolutely see that next movie. Now I don't give a shit.
It's like hearing a good song. Then listening to it 10000000 times. The effect just wears off. But after a few weeks, it's good again.
But Star Wars is like a Walmart or Target at this point. It's just a daily storefront to sell streams and costumes and toys. They won't go away.
It's just an obese B wing
Go away Rian.
how do you get down from that?
It looks cooler than a b wing and I’m NOT kidding
can't wait until people start making AI movies of these extended universe Star Wars stories
Yea is felt the main problem was that the movies cut back and forth too much between too many different characters. Focus on Rey, Finn, kylo. That’s it.
I think it's that "Life is like a video game" song
Maybe in a decade
I was going to say something about a lack of coherency, meaning a lack of building up a narrative
But i think this is it.
It doesn't go deeper, and the end result is that any ambition stops there. Image making 3 back to back movies on.... trailer splicing scenes. Instead of really planning out a epic 3 movie ride
