Oh goodie, the Star Wars thread has just looped back round to the same old shit, back to the future.
I will contribute my usual then: the prequels are shit stacked upon shit, stacked upon shit, stacked upon shit. I consider the final JJ Abrams movie spiritually a prequel too.

Still more entertaining and more variety than any thread about Foster though.

The latest episode will please those who want plenty of action.
Yeah I liked it, it also has a bit of an old school / retro feel to it, which comes off pretty well IMO.
Bo Katan's Mandolorian suit is pretty well shaped too...
I did think though, it is somewhat amusing that I expect they pay Pedro a fair old chunk of cash, yet you never even see his face, its just his voice.

mystery-thriller set in the High Republic era of the galaxy’s history. Amandla Stenberg and Lee Jung-jae are starring as the show’s leads, a Padawan learner and her Jedi Master, who set out to investigate several crimes that might be tied to the Sith.
that sounds more like what ive wanted to see, a quick google confirms the High Republic ended 80BBY so shouldn't have much crossover with any of the other tv/movie except maybe a young palpatine?

All caught up.
Good fun stuff, I did like the cameo at the bar of that big alien from rebels amongst others. Fun fact. That was what Chewie was going to look like in initial drawings. So much other awesome stuff too. Grogu is adorable without being irritating which is quite an achievement. Some nice appearances from some pretty famous faces too.
I hope the Armourer takes her helmet ( and other items of clothing off ) before too long….

Back to the topic from last week, this probably explains a few things:
It really isn't hard. Good guys vs bad guys, cool characters, lots of action, positive and uplifting message, the end!

Fuck I miss living in China, and buying dodgy DVDs at one of the several dodgy stores within a 5 minute walk.
New pleasures everytime.- Occasionally - fucking weird subtitles, as per above
- More often - super fucking weird covers. Sometimes just dropping in any review found online, including the scathing ones.
- Very occasionally - for some reason - over-dubbing - back into English, of an original English dialogue - therefore, with TWO weird translations having had happened. (A-la "English As She Is Spoke")
- Finally realising about 10 minutes into The Chronicles Of Riddick - that it was a CAM - and that the confusingly inappropriate laughter during first action scene - was actually the theatre audience
- The tacking on of credits from any other movie - onto the CAM DVDs... watching a Bond, and then seeing Cuba Gooding Jr as the first name in the credit sequence. (Something called Snow Dogs was popular as a post-credits sequence.)

All the rebels crew seem to be back, only main problem I have is jamming more sith (at least 2 in that clip) etc into the same time period
But production value look good, fan service for those of us that watch rebels, ship battles, lightsaber battles…will watch
