    @crucial said in Star Wars VII ****contains spoilers****:

    Initial reactions to Solo are very positive. I expect @Rancid-Schnitzel will hate it.

    If there’s more then 2 lines of dialogue spoken by a strong female character then yes it will be hated by a couple ferners

    That's absolutely pathetic Virgil. We can have our differences here but I thought you were better than that.

    Further to this: A New Hope had Leia talking back to DV and Moff Tarkin at the same time when she was 19 fucken years old! If that's not a strong female character I don't know what is.

    She wasn’t Asian or have purple hair

    Yes that's why those characters were hated. Are we trying to bring racism into the mix now too?

    Mace and Lando are cool but Finn is a bit of a dick. Does that make me a third racist? 🙂

    I think you're Brit-racist.

    Ahh the old middle Eastern with a Hebrew name rears it's ugly head again.

    I'd be embarrassed to have a handle like that.

    I didn’t bring it in, a good chunk of the trolls who kept hijacking Star Wars media posts on fb etc were.
    I even made the point previously that if both those characters were men most of the hate wouldn’t happen.

    We all dislike movies but I’ve never seen a particular movie trolled and brought up in such a way so often as this move has been. We get it you didn’t like it, why keep bringing it up, pretty much any time someone says they like it there’s someone quick to jump in and remind everyone how much it sucked.

    Sure Virgil, it's only because they're women. I mean the male characters never cop any hate. Only the female ones. All the vitriol against the prequels was directed at Padme wasn't it? Maybe just maybe they actually are really shity characters? But I guess it's so much easier to use the racism or mysogeny cards rather than actually provide good reasons for why you believe you're right. Just a thought.

    Maybe these films are being trolled because people are sick of their beloved films being completely fucked over and ruined?

    They're not for most of us .... And anyway, how does you not liking the latest film effect your love of the older ones? I find Phantom Menace (and I tried recently) unwatchable - it doesn't ruin the original trilogy or the new two and Rogue One for me.

    Wouldn't say most of us. TLJ has been torn apart by loads of critics.

    Really? Strange it has a 91% score on rotten tomatoes. A site that tracks critics reviews based on positive vs negative reviews

    Bollocks, the shittiness of the prequels didn't ruin the Originals for me. If they ruin it for you then that's your issue.

    Speaking as someone who grew up with the original trilogy as a kid ( I was 5 when New Hope came out) I’ve thoroughly enjoyed these 3 new movies to date.
    I genuinely feel sorry for anyone who believes they are a Star Wars fan but have so much hate for the new trilogy and stand alone films.

    But hang on, haven't you had a go at the prequels?

    Rogue One is awesome TFA is pretty good it's only TLJ I don't particularly like.

    Initial reactions to Solo are very positive. I expect @Rancid-Schnitzel will hate it.

    If there’s more then 2 lines of dialogue spoken by a strong female character then yes it will be hated by a couple ferners

    That's absolutely pathetic Virgil. We can have our differences here but I thought you were better than that.

    Further to this: A New Hope had Leia talking back to DV and Moff Tarkin at the same time when she was 19 fucken years old! If that's not a strong female character I don't know what is.

    She wasn’t Asian or have purple hair

    Yes that's why those characters were hated. Are we trying to bring racism into the mix now too?

    I didn’t bring it in, a good chunk of the trolls who kept hijacking Star Wars media posts on fb etc were.
    I even made the point previously that if both those characters were men most of the hate wouldn’t happen.

    We all dislike movies but I’ve never seen a particular movie trolled and brought up in such a way so often as this move has been. We get it you didn’t like it, why keep bringing it up, pretty much any time someone says they like it there’s someone quick to jump in and remind everyone how much it sucked.

    Sure Virgil, it's only because they're women. I mean the male characters never cop any hate. Only the female ones. All the vitriol against the prequels was directed at Padme wasn't it? Maybe just maybe they actually are really shity characters? But I guess it's so much easier to use the racism or mysogeny cards rather than actually provide good reasons for why you believe you're right. Just a thought.

    Maybe these films are being trolled because people are sick of their beloved films being completely fucked over and ruined?

    They're not for most of us .... And anyway, how does you not liking the latest film effect your love of the older ones? I find Phantom Menace (and I tried recently) unwatchable - it doesn't ruin the original trilogy or the new two and Rogue One for me.

    Most of us, as in you and Virgil. If the new films are shit then Star Wars is being ruined. It's really not a hard concept to grasp.

    Speaking as someone who grew up with the original trilogy as a kid ( I was 5 when New Hope came out) I’ve thoroughly enjoyed these 3 new movies to date.
    I genuinely feel sorry for anyone who believes they are a Star Wars fan but have so much hate for the new trilogy and stand alone films.

    But hang on, haven't you had a go at the prequels?

    Yeah they were let downs on the whole
    But they are still Star Wars, flaws and all
    I still watch them occasional and appreciate the good things. Just they aren’t as good as the originals.

    Wouldn't say most of us. TLJ has been torn apart by loads of critics.

    Really? Strange it has a 91% score on rotten tomatoes. A site that tracks critics reviews based on positive vs negative reviews

    Fair enough, nothing is, I still reckon film for film they're better than the latest two. It would take an absolutely brilliant third movie for me to change my mind on this.

    Personally, for me, the 3rd one could be the worst Star Wars film ever (to everyone, not just you and Rancid) and these latest 3 would top the prequels for me. I've watched the prequels twice each (and the second time round I forced myself) and likely never will again. I happily rewatched the latest two and Rogue One.

    I have enough faith in Ron Howard that Solo will be a decent addition to the franchise. And I doubt Alden Ehrenreich can be any worse than Hayden Christensen.

    I haven't watched Eps 1-3 since the buildup to The Force Awakens. But like I've done for all the Star Wars movies I will see it at the cinema.

    Crikey.......It is awesome though. I think a lot of that is down to the familiarity of the classic era, for that reason I have high hopes for Solo
