villa4europe Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 the interesting thing for me is how many of them say avoid the spoilers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Well they're hardly going to say 'Read all the spoilers!' are they :D Question - was thinking of going to see this at an imax, but I can't find any 2D imax showings. Is there no such thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Along similar lines the 'this isn't going to go the way you think it will' thing is promising. I suppose the writers/producers were always going to attempt to emulate a moment like the end of TESB. I'm not a huge star wars fan, but I love a good bit of sci fi / fantasy, so if I get invested in it and there's a big reveal or some such towards the end of the 2 and a half hour run time that works, I'll be happy.

Chindie Posted December 12, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted December 12, 2017 I read an apparent spoiler for this ages ago that, if it comes to pass, would probably have me doing the old Seinfeld throw your hands up and walk out moment. I'm not the biggest Star Wars fan mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumerican Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I haven't seen The Force Awakens but I may go and see The Last Jedi as I quite like Harrison Ford as Han Solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing Boyega and Ridley are brother and sister. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing Boyega and Ridley are brother and sister. I'd roll my eyes at another familial relationship, but it's almost expected from Star Wars. No, this was worse than that imo. Possible significant spoilers for the new film (and the one after, maybe). But I hope to **** not. Spoiler The spoiler from what I recall was that Rey is basically the resurrection of Vader, that she's another space Jesus with crazy powers and is pretty much Vader's soul in a new body but hadn't been aware of her abilities and her background. Supposedly there are numerous hints towards this in the Force Awakens and I'm pretty sure there's more nods towards it in the trailers for this film. I'm very hopeful these are red herrings, because there's something incredibly shit about that plot. The virgin birth thing was always shit with Vader, doing it again but with Vader's soul basically coming back in a new body is especially shite. Thankfully it looks like this started as a fan theory and didn't widely get picked up so hopefully is nonsense. But you never know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderPower_14 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I won't spoil anything until most of you have seen it but it was amazing. Really different from anything that has come before it. If TFA was too reminiscent of ANH, this isn't like anything else. Go see it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be pleased to know this isn't hinted at at all. Rey isn't the resurrection of Vader. It's good. Very good. It's not the gushing masterpiece the reviews would have you believe but very enjoyable and has some great moments. For me, the humour worked. Great CGI on Snoke, the Rey 'interrogation' scene hinted at in the trailers is great. Need more time to digest it and see again but Empire's place is safe as the best.
