Ok, considering your age, your childhood roughly coincides with the rise of Jar Jar Bings, right?

If my posts irritate you in some way, I must be doing something right.

Yeah, we're gonna see it on Thursday. I want BB8 to be in it! He's the best thing ever. But he's not in it. Awwwwww. I'm not really fussed, but I'm happy to go along with Emma to see it as we have unlimited passes.

I have a BB8 wooly hat.

Man..what does a 12 year old have to do to get some respect around here?!

In all seriousness, I hated the last "modernized" star wars movie. Everything was shit and I'm 1000% sure the new one will be the same. They are now remaking star wars to appeal to the current generation of 12 year olds..and we all know what the 12 year olds like...lots and lots of explosions, shitty graphics, simple, bland and complete shit plot and the male protagonist finally making the female lead realize how much of a nice person he is after his relentless pursuit and them finally making up...ended with a kiss. Kill me already.

I still haven't seen the last one. I don't feel like I'm missing much.

Well, there's to hoping that Rogue One is not geared towards that audience. There's a good chance that it isn't - it's advertised as the grittier grownup Star Wars.

If it is geared toward a grittier grown up audience, wouldn't they have picked a more mature heroine than a teen queen?

Also, wuld every teenage female Star Wars character from now on always come naturally equipped with stupendous natural talent that allow them to out duel sith apprentice, lead covert missions to get the empire's most important secrets, or kill dozens of imperial storm troopers with one blaster shot, all without any significant prior training?

I know the overdid it with Rey in Episode 7, but does the heroine of Rogue One have such skills?

For sure. I'm pumped as hell. I have a good feeling about this.

It's the girl powerrr ??

I've been seeing this trend in almost every new movie, skinny feminine small girl beats the hell out of a huge gym bro. Like c'mon, Hollywood...
