705836, Well, it wasn't Phantom Menace, so there's that Posted by spenzalii, Fri Dec-18-15 12:06 PM
It did look great (a return to more practical effects was welcome after the bluescreen orgy that the prequels were) but somehow I still came away underwhelmed. I don't think it was bad by any means. But there was probably too much Solo and they wheeled out the planet destroying weapon again (though this time it's a death planet instead of death star. It still goes down the same. You'd think somebody would have figured out how to defend that by now).
Trust Fund Vader. I'm stealing that one. Why the hell did he have to keep taking off the mask? And what's with the temper tantrums?
Definitely felt like a New Hope remix. Something for the new fans, maybe too much for the old fans, but not quite a perfect mashup for both. It does set up things for the next one, so I'll see where it goes
