sorry i thought this was a private jerk off circle between just you two.
Figured you would be off watching something gay like James Bond or Star Trek by nowVirgil did you actually watch this film 3 times or did you just go to the cinema to get some much needed sleep and time away from the women?
Actually watched it 4 times at the movies
Another 2 times since it was released on iTunes a couple weeks ago -

Virg can you tell us why it's so good? It's Easter we all have a bit of time....
I second that. Who watches any film six times? I wouldn't watch a porno staring the Sports Illustrated swimsuit models six times.

It’s Star Wars.
Not good enough. I've tried to justify the latest outing by saying just that and I can't. It is literally a hundred times shitter than Phantom Menace.
Like you I fail to understand how people can seriously hate the prequels but get serious wood over these new films. There is no logic there.

The prequels had their fair share of flaws which have been addressed ad nauseum but they absolutely shit all over the latest two in the series. TFA is probably better than Phantom Menace I'll admit but after the latest clusterfuck there's more chance of Steve Smith captaining Oz again than there is of the latest trilogy matching the prequels regardless of how good episode 9 is.

I was critical of TLJ after seeing it twice at the theatre but I am interested in seeing the special features of the BR release as the director Rian Johnson explains a lot of the plot points and decisions made. The doco also doesn't shy away from Mark Hamill's unhappiness with the script.

You've been trolling this quite steadily with some merit, but c'mon man, you've got to keep some semblance of realism.

Trolling is saying Daniel Braid was a much better player than Richie McCaw.

The Phantom Menace in this analogy is the reserve from the the Auckland club team that Braid is affiliated to and played for a few times as an 18 year old.

The Last Jedi is someone with no arms and legs trying to play rugby.

Your not helping your case.

With respect Virgil you haven't exactly put forward a compelling argument yourself.

Thats putting it mildly.....
I love Virgs work and often we agree on a lot but every now and again we're at loggerheads. I think I've made my feelings for this flick pretty clear and, tragically, not even the 'It's Star Wars' argument can save it which for me personally is heartbreaking.
Positive points ?
More compelling performances from R n R.
Probably Mark Hamills best performance as LS.
Snoke a great bad guy ( Still not as good as the Emperor )
A kick ass fight with the Red Guards
.....

I would say this: Ben Solo is a very interesting character (and well acted) but not Kylo Ren. What I mean is that Kylo Ren is only cool with the mask and mystery. When he takes the mask off he's a joke.
I think they really missed a cool character ark here. They should have started with Ben turning in VII.

Thanks to you ladies I’m watching it again tonight, need me to # every scene as I go?
