Most shocking in that last episode were the punches from the speeder bikers.

Luke.. I need you to go back to My Tatooine hut and get rid of my porn collection... holograms, holocrons, some datadisc I bought on the Coruscant black market... There are snuff films in there, Luke. If the Rebellion sees all the pictures I took of Twileks feet while they were sleeping... It's all in the box in the basement labelled "Bothan Pictures".. Before you ask: yes, there are bothan pictures in there, they're just not of Death Star data.. You've gotta do this for me, Luke. You've got to destroy my porn stash.. And I mean DESTROY that shit, kid... Seriously, the holocrons alone are enough to get a man put away on an Emperial penitentiary planet. Grruagrarr is the Wookie word for "pervert", son, and that's what I am... That's what your Uncle Ben is.. All the fat globs of semen I've wasted masturbating to Rancor beastiality and vore over the years.. And I'm a strong ejaculator, Luke... I'm as sterile as a surgery room, but I cum like a geyser every time... I think part of the thrill was always seeing if I could get any of it in my mouth... The first time I did it was a complete accident, but the taste, Luke.. The taste was unlike anything I had ever experienced before... I started to crave it... It was like a drug to me... And that's coming from a guy who did a lot of death sticks on Corellia... Usually off of the ass-cheeks of some Force controled Tusken Raiders who me and Qui-Gon would kill for sport later... I actually have some footage of that in my holocron collection... Which, again, you REALLY need to get rid of... I cannot overstate the importance of wiping that shit from the face of the Galaxy.. Okay, what else, what else? Oh, you can have the slice of Meiloorun Fruit from Aunt Beru’s birthday that I've been saving.. I mean, I took a bite out of it, but it's not like I have herpes or anything... Wait.. Do genitals count? Never mind, I'm dead now.. In summation: May the Force be with you.. oh, yea. Vader is your father. You’re a good friend, Luke.

the subject does say spoilers so Tysons not wrong but for some shit i might use the spoiler tag however it works. Busty would'nt tell me..Bustys a cunt! haha

i didnt really like how they portrayed the Biker Scouts. the shooting was funny but they made them seem like dumbasses more then anything. In ROTJ they seemed cooler and thats better. Great episode though! end of the season already. i wonder why it wasnt 10 eps like most are now? the production is high quality,maybe thats why. its gonna be a long time till season 2 comes out! lots of baby yoda merch coming around May or so. Funko stuff might be earlier cause they are always first it seems. i dont like POPS! but to each there own.

That said, I wasn't expecting the Godfather when I watched the sequel trilogy, and enjoyed them for what they were.
yep totally! i must be off or something. i never got the Godfather. i find it boring. I also dont really like Led Zepplin or Pink Floyd either :o

So I've been chipping away at watching the entire Skywalker saga 1-9 with a sneaky detour to rogue one between 3 & 4.Just finished Jedi.

Thoughts so far.

Phantom menace. Actually not as bad as I remember it. Jar jar still sucks though.
Attack of the clones. Geez... what a total cluster fuck. I can't see Lucas being much of a ladies man , if that's his idea of chemistry and dialogue between lovers.
Sith . Man, the potential is there but completely let down by some absolutely terrible acting .
Rogue 1. Probably the best star wars film outside of the original trilogy.
A new hope. Empire gets all the wraps. But this still wins for me.
Empire. One of the best sequels ever made.
Jedi. Jesus fucking Christ, Lucas added "Noooo" to darth as he throws the emperor.. Man what a bad choice that is.

ESB is one of my favs.

Rogue One and Mandolirian are comparable in ways.

the nooo is really lame and i think was added in with the bluray release. speaking of, you can find the ''despecialized'' versions of the OT that takes the best of the releases and removes crap added in. i have them but i didnt notice a lot of difference from the special editions which i dont mind anyway.

i wonder if Disney is ever going to release the orig theatrical releases. i think rumour is its coming sooner then later finally but im not sure. the laser disc transfers of those that were LE with the special editions for a short time are bad transfers. Lucas really didnt care about putting those out. i'll give him credit though, he never really backed away from his beliefs about stuff. For the fans though that prob would of a been a smarter move to give them the original versions in nice quality back in 04.

Yeah, the enhanced editions of Return of the Jedi are complete rubbish. Fixed things that really didn't need to be fixed.

I think they should remake the prequel trilogy with better actors, directing and less CGI.

This I would love to see. The foundation is there for a great trilogy.

app the next movie(s) (not done as a trilogy) are going to be 400 years before the skywalker saga called ''the high republic' and Yoda is most likely going to be in it. Some other names from the EU but nothing really known about main characters yet. this dude has good contacts,his info is usually right.

I'm not sold on it. I watch Thor Ragnarok for a second time recently, and it definitely wasn't as good re-heated. And I prefer my Star Wars to be a little more serious.

However, it's Star Wars, so I'l give it a go, but I'm not so sure Waititi is the next saviour.

yeah I can see how his humour may be a bit over the top for a star wars specific movie, but I think it'll have a hell of a lot of heart (hunt for the wilderpeople, mandalorian) both showed that to me, he can add a pretty special touch to something. If nothing else it should be reasonably original for a star wars movie and Im sure will have more than enough action scenes to keep people entertained. Time will tell of course though, but I love and trust the man.

When I first watched Boy back in the day, I woulda laughed in ya face if you told me he'd be directing a star wars movie.

I don't trust him yet (though I don't hate any of his movies), and most importantly don't trust Disney at this point. I'm not convinced there's an easily solution for the current Star Wars mediocrity

One could say you have a bad feeling about this?

I don't ever expect anything to come even close to the original trilogy, but with the exception of Last Jedi, I've enjoyed all the new films for what they are. Rogue One showed that someone can make an absolutely killer star wars movie with a bit of a current tone, so hoping taiki can follow that kinda lead.

I don't have super high expectations, and I'm not a current gen SW hater by any means. I really liked the tone of Rogue One, and hope that new stuff follows suit but I don't see a Waititi variant of SW going that direction.

yeh he'll put his own spin on it.. I guess it's now an open canvas with the skywalker saga done and dusted so really I see him as a perfect option to reinvent the wheel a little to help keep it relevant. I can see how that may polarise many coz I do get that a bunch of rogue one type tone films would be entertaining as all hell.

A director of the comedic touch gets to direct a Star Wars film, now when did that happen before, surely this can't be a solo event?

Yes, Solo came to mind that's for sure. Perhaps the new movie is a Christmas Special remake?

Another way of looking at it is, Kiwi director known for primarily making films well outside the blockbuster genre , signs on to direct one of the biggest stories of our time. Where have I heard this before?

I'd say he's primarily known for a blockbuster, but maybe that's just me.

I think both Thor & Jojo Rabbit are fine, and maybe he'll do fine with Star Wars. I just don't think comedic directors are what the series needs, and I find it hard to get excited about this announcement.
