So is Disney's Star Wars Episode Eight The Last Jedi

>>15474287
Honestly? I hope so, it could be.

As a browser of 4chan with a constant need to shit on literally everything popular?
NO IT'LL BE ABSOLUTE GARBAGE BRAVO DISNEY FUCKING RAPING MY CHILDHOOD

>>15474307

It'll probably be inoffensive but entertaining and a broad rip-off of The Empire Strikes Back that gets worse the more you think about it.

Unlikely. Have you seen TFA and Rogue One?

What does star wars have to do with mecha?

>>15474447
>has mechs
>has power armor
>has spaceships
Idk it's a real mystery

>>15474287
obviously not

it will be only if Kyle Katarn appears and takes the spotlight

>>15474287
Probably not. But it'll make a billion bucks so why would they care?

>mfw the sequel trilogy will be less-memorable than the prequel trilogy

I feel like it doesn't pay to be a fan of anything, anymore.

>Watch SW7
>It's boring
>Watch RO
>It's almost 2h of endless shitty fight scene with uninteresting character

Meh

>>15474821
wow Trent Reznor really didn't age well

>>15474287
We already know the plot. Get ready for trees nigga

>>15474828
Fight scenes were good, though.
Helped me to get through the movie.

>>15474462

What power armor? I only watched the original trilogy and the closest thing to power armor was the life support system/armor hybrid of vader

>>15475512
He's talking about either that or Boba.

>>15475518

Ah, didn't know that Boba's was power armor. Did it any any technology or support system? It's been ages but all I remember about it being power armor anything was having built-in jetpack and a gun holster

>>15474287
what is he asking?

>>15474307
Maybe their childhoods were asking for it. Getting dressed up all sexy like and flaunting it. Maybe Disney couldn't help themselves and just went for it.

Well, it's not present in the new canon, but they did exist in the old canon.

Don't forget hazard troopers.

>>15475606
I fucking hate those guys. Impervious to nearly all ranged weapons and an absolute bitch to take down, even in god mode.

>movie made by executive board
>good
It'll be passable entertainment, but with zero lasting impact and it'll start falling apart with every rewatch and the passage of time.

Considering this is the plebbest board on 4chan, probably.

There are people who legit enjoy Marvel movies here.

>>15474287

No. It will be on par with Ep 7. Competently made but painfully safe

>>15475915
But this isn't /co/.

>>15475923
/co/ is not even a 4chan board anymore, it's tumblr.

Then again, the same /m/aggots here like western comics.

>>15475606
Dark Troopers also were power armour.

>>15475718
Don't say that outloud they might hear you.

>>15475930
Sort-of? The Phase 0 ones from Battlefront II were cyborg clones who wore power armor, but the others were just battle droids.

Heh, I thought that meme was exclusive to /leftypol/
How would Zizek critically analyse Gundam?

Rogue One made TFA seem so good in retrospect comparison.
Is this Disney's real master plan? Release subpar spin offs to make their new numbered films look better?

Rogue one made the phantom menace look decent in retrospect

It's more entertaining, in an ironic sort of way, but I wouldn't suggest it was a better film.

kylo is sent to kill luke as his final test, but very early into the film he has begun to doubt and question snoke. he regrets killing his father and struggles with it. By the time he has reached luke, he has chosen to completely renounce snoke and the dark.

kylo instead of killing luke, wants to redeem himself, and work with luke to rebuild the jedi

luke is completely demoralized from the destruction of his jedi school, and the murder of han solo. he blames it on himself, and he thinks he has the solution. Luke believes that it is in mankind's blood to be tempted by the power of the force, and as long as there are jedi in the world, the sith will rise and oppress. Luke wants to end the jedi, and hide the power of the force from the world.


both kylo and luke have strayed from their paths of light and dark, but not wholly, rather ending up in a very similar and muddy shade of gray

when kylo finally find's luke, who expects him to attack, he instead asks for forgiveness and to work together to remake the jedi. to kylo's shock, he is greeted with luke's deep hatred of the force, and an extreme anger and voilent tone that is stirred up by kylo's return.

luke forces kylo into a duel; luke wins the duel handily, but rey saves kylo from being slain.

it's at this point that rey is forced to choose a side:

stay with the new aggressive luke, to try and end the jedi order, and continue her training.

or

side with the now penitent kylo ren, working to rebuild the jedi order, but become a mortal enemy to luke and his goal to end the jedi.

Go Google what "mecha" actually means in Japan. A fucking tank is mecha. A fucking toaster is mecha. This is a catch-all Sci Fi board you could make a thread about all kinds of stuff here
LURK MOAR

>>15476109
Rogue One was the only time In my life that I've fallen asleep in a theater. It once and for all proved that the stuff I thought was "cool" as an EU-Reading teenager was stupid BS, because if you asked 15 yr old me, Rogue One would be my dream SW movie. Yet it sucked.

>>15474287
Star Wars is not /m/

Fuck off

>b-but muh walkers

>>15476144
Literally a Kreia?

>>15476193
Don't you have a toku thread to harass?

>>15475500
It was utterly boring because the villains were incompetent asshole who only won throught sheer numbers.

Seeing the characters kill hundred after hundred of mook was just boring.

>>15476771
Thats why I don't watch that many action movies anymore.

Vader's Star Destroyer actually did something.

Which would make the first time in 5 movies a star destroyer was useful.

>>15476181
Now I wanna watch an anime about a toaster mecha piloted by a teenage boy with psychological issues.

>>15476771

In fairness, that description works for almost every depiction of the Empire except in ESB and bits and pieces of TLJ and Rebels.

>>15479755

>TLJ

ROTJ, I mean.

But if TLF apes ESB, that's probably right in advance.

>>15474828
Just stop watching Star Wars so we don't have to see you bitch about them like a crabby 9 year old.

>>15479751
what does the toaster fuck and how does it fuck?

Man, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually miss Lucas.

At least he actually tried to be original.

>>15480937
I don't.

What you want isn't originality.
What you want is novelty.
What a movie needs isn't originality.
What a movie needs is stylistic purity and efficient execution.
Originality doesn't exist anyway.

>>15480955
No, I'm pretty sure that I want movies that don't just try to be the original trilogy.

If I want to watch TFA, I'll just watch A New Hope.

>Take one of the most popular boy,s franchises
>Market it to girls
Between this and ESPN, there must be some really petty weirdo throwing their weight around the boardroom.
Is Lasseter still in charge?

>>15479755
I admit I'm not a big sw fan but the way the mook got killed in Rogue One was just boring. It kind of felt like capeshit.

I know this also happen in a lot of other mecha media but the way they get killed is funny or they're bringing something new, etc. In Rogue One, there was nothing like that.

What's with this Disney Princess meme that's going around? You think that expanding their target audience means they're going to stop catering to boys? That's absurd. The vast majority of the franchise is still about manly things like men shooting at each other with laser beams.

>>15480984
Welcome to current year left wing politics, where their political beliefs always come first, second and third.

>>15475929
You seem like a pleasant fellow.

>>15481454
You say that, but the next thing you know, Disney fires the entire staff of ILM and suddenly the newest season of Rebels is 26 episodes of feminist poetry.

I'm hopeful because I really really like the director Rian Johnson. (The third movie in the new trilogy is going to be directed by the guy that did jurassic world so I feel like that one is gonna be kind of meh).

My excitement has been tempered a bit by some of the plot details that have come to light with the recent trailer. After everything that happened in the original trilogy, it seems like a big bummer if the jedi become no more.
