Rise of Skywalker

Some crazy rumors today on how much Disney cut from JJs intended movie, 40 minutes worth if true.

What's so GD frustrating is that people don't have an issue with 3 hours IF IT IS GOOD. Great stories just may take longer than 135 minutes.

Shit, if I'm going to drop $45 for a movie for 2 people, I REALLY don't have a problem with it being longer.

Saw it with the family this weekend and we all liked it.

One thing I will say...every time at the beginning of a Star Wars movie...when you see the "A long time ago, in a Galaxy far far away..." and the music starts...I am instantly a 15 year old again seeing Star Wars Episode 4 back in 1978 for the 1st time.

It just never gets old for me.

I agree with this

About 90% of what I've read about IX is negative. I get some of it but really disagree.

I saw it last night and again today. Loved it. I grew up in the 80s, before there were Star Wars Legos, using Space Legos to try to build Star Destroyers. I read Timothy Zahn and painfully endured the prequels.

I'm no fan of Disney but I completely love what they've done to revive Star Wars from its 30-year slump. I'm in the minority probably but VIII and IX are incredibly good Star Wars movies.

I think everyone has had such an imagination and debate about what's happening, that we became attached to all the expectations and theories so were naturally offended by the actual storytelling. Once I let the movies be what they are, especially VIII & IX, Ioved them.

I'm completely satisfied and I'm looking forward to one more trip to Rise of Skywalker in a couple weeks.

Now if Disney will just bring back pre-mastered Original Trilogy and somehow get the old classic FSU logo back while they're at it!

Timothy Zahn's Thrawn Trilogy needs to be the next trilogy made. It was perhaps one of the best series ever written.

Luuke! I am your faather. Jacen and Jaina are still supposed to be in VII, VIII, IX in my mind sometimes.
