Coming in December ... "Rogue One"

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Anyone else excited or at least eager to be cynical again?

I can't be cynical again, as cynicism is my default status.

Excited? My anticipatory excitement over this film lies somewhere between my interest in Andalusian jock straps and the likelihood of growing an extra thumb.

I've little interest in the crap Disney flings at the wall in hopes that it'll stick, even if they label it "Star Wars."

The only movies in the last couple of decades that have been branded by Disney that have been worth a shit, have been created by others (Pixar before Disney took over, Walden Media, De Laurentiis, etc...).

It'll happen to Marvel too now Disney's got their hooks in there.

Also, I want it to be good because all the dudebro assholes on the web are screaming "Mary Sue!" because they can't stomach strong female leads.

I scream "mary sue" not because she is supposedly strong, but because she is supposedly a guttersnipe who is somehow born better than Han Solo in piloting Millenium falcon and Better than a trained apprentice in light saber fights. 

Well that's just because her force-thingy is bigger than their's silly.

No.  I want it to be interesting.  Certain fantasy stories are good, ones in which the main character comes equipped with everything and overcomes everything through sheer unearned natural talent are by definition not good or interesting.

It's another comic book movie. Don't get your hopes up.

Too late.  I may not have the biggest force thingy on the block but its up goddamit.

I haven't seen SW7 yet, but I'd love to watch another Star Wars movie. Strong leads? Pffft. Give me some popcorn and a good fantasy.

I see too much whining in this thread. Fuck it. I enjoyed 7 and I'm looking forward to Rogue One. I aim to have fun with it.

Then you have room for a New Hope.

Is that gif meant as an impossibly complex metaphor of sorts? I'm confused.

Confused or drunk? Don't try to answer until you're definitely not one of those.

It was meant to signify approval.

I'd never post...
