The New Star Wars Films

[Brownie]

Fucks his life support system up, doesn't it?

Let's hope he made sure the switches were set to off when he was changing bulbs eh?

I've been watching Episodes IV-VI in preparation for the weekend and have a random question.

 

Why does Vader die after touching the Emporer for a few seconds when Luke was exposed to it for much longer?!

Because plot device.

Luke had also injured him by that point as well. Can only imagine it short circuits his suite.

 

 

Anyway, the early reviews from the premier is that The Force Awakens is really good and comparable to the original trilogy. I keep trying to tell myself that the early reviews for The Phantom Menace were good as well to keep my feet on the ground, but 9.15am Saturday morning literally can't come fast enough.

So it starts off fine, peaks in the middle and has a meh ending?

Is the Cineworld on Edge Lane a really shit cinema?

Just checked and still loads of tickets available for next Thursday morning.

 

I am not sure if seeing it in a shit cinema is the place I want to see it. Or hopefully it is a decent cinema but not well known.

Thanks for all the advice. 

I have booked my ticket for Cineworld on Thursday morning at 10:10, if the cinema is crap I will blame all of you equally.

[Bernard Diomede]

Whats the spoiler situation on this? Are we having a separate thread for those who have watched it?

[ZonkoVille77]

Yea we should.

Although I've read enough spoilers already that I'd not learn anything here.

Monday morning. On my own like a proper dweeb.

 

It will mark the official start of a nice quiet couple of days for me. I knock off for christmas this Friday, but the boy is still in kindy and the missus is still working, both up until christmas eve.

 

Will probably have a wank after the film. Might even wait till I get home.

I'm going by myself as well. I like going to the cinema by myself. Every time it comes up in conversation people always look at me funny but I don't get why - you sit dark room for 2/3 hours, pretty much in silence and if the other person talks to you, you "sssshhhh" them and tell them to shut the fuck up, especially going to see this.

 

I understand having a chat about the film is the social aspect of going with friends, but it doesn't bother me. I'm happy with my own thoughts on a film.

 

Also, I don't want to take my wife to see this. I've put some comments in the 'Rate the last film you watched' thread and the level of idiotic questions that she'd try and ask me either during or after the film would drive me bonkers. It'd definitely be twice as expensive and half as much fun.

All of this.

Have dialled my expectations right down for this. Rewatched the original yesterday and I don't think it will come close to that sense of wonder and poetic, religious undertone of Kenobi vs Vader. The experienced British actors on the Empire's side portrayed evil in a way no young American dude ever will.

 

Will enjoy it as I enjoy every other modern movie. Soulless popcorn.
