Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
I think my kids are old enough to appreciate the jokes in Full Metal Jacket now. I got them to watch LOTR and now we started with The Hobbit. Star Wars next, but that's a tough one, since it seems old to them, but maybe I'll start with Rogue One since it's the best modern star wars movie.
Honestly it might be the best Star wars movie, period. At least from todays perspective. The original trilogy was groundbreaking for their own time but haven't aged the best. As with many media, what was innovative 40 years ago is cliche and stale today.
Lmao. Wat.
Urgh... My love of the OT is compelling me to downvote your opinion as objectively wrong ... Must ... resist the dark side...
I always hear that. I couldn't get more than 30 seconds into the movie
Episode 8 made me unable to watch the movies. But Episode 7 killed Star wars for me though - when it came down our entire department took a half day to go together
I'll never forget walking out of that theatre, the people who only kinda liked it were happy, the guy who memorized wookepedia was disappointed, then I shared a look with my team lead, who has been a diehard fan since the originals, he's a big old school nerd.
We just shared a look of despair and loss, something we loved died that day. We'd both extensively read the extended universe, and we'd talk about it frequently. I don't think we ever brought up Star wars again after that day
Solo is the only Star Wars movie they’ve released since the OT in my opinion.
The rest tried too hard, but Solo had the YEEHAW which made Star Wars great.
I know folks hate it, but it was fun in the way Star Wars (ANH) was for me as a kid.
Rogue One?
Was a great movie, I loved it.
It was set in the Star Wars universe which I love, but my statement is more about the “yee haw hold on to your assholes” that Star Wars was before there was a Empire strikes Back even.
What I loved about Star Wars is what Solo did for me
They will like it 100x better when they watch it for the first time on their own in college with their friends
While cooking meth. Dare to dream.
Hope you didn’t make them watch the extended Hobits. I’m not gonna risk it with my kids - I’m starting with LOTR
