You thought JJ Abrams was James Cameron and you still continue to post in this thread?
I thought Krazykats crushing you on your ishy Tupac takes in your home base rap thread was your low point.
Might be time to step back and re-think this whole internet thing.
No idiot I thought James was JJ. Smh.
I jkst now discovered IMDB like you movie dweebs and what I found cemented my position that the new Star Wars is a joke compared to the George Lucas ones.

The level of Blue Bell in @Mashburned 's blood is dangerously low. That's why his Star Wars takes are off. I understand.
only 84%? Wow .. I would of thought it would be like 95% at least with all the reviews I've been hearing about it.
Hipster nerds will hate it on purpose.
That's what I was thinking too. The negative reviews aren't that negative though. Some complain about the film being too bleak for a Star Wars film, but that doesn't bother me.
Wait, you mean to tell me Disney shitting out another uninspired, soulless moneygrab isn't going to have a lasting impact on Star Wars fans?

This article is so trollish ....its inspiring Jeff Goodman to write a new article about UK basketball
Critics in the early 80's completely shat upon Empire strikes back for being too bleak also. I wonder how that turned out over time... hmmmmm? lol

Well, that's coming from a guy who's not a fan of the original trilogy.

"A couple of 9-year-olds on a screen-free rainy afternoon would come up with better adventures, and probably also better dialogue."

Granted, NYT, so fake news, but even if their liberal *** writers are slamming it you know Disney didn't pay enough for the reviews.
The main problem is there's not enough Samuel L. Jackson or Idris Elba in it. That and the fact that this film is really just a social construct of oppression by big corporate owned Republican fascists.
The real protagonists of the films are the drones.

Shawn, how could you hate this movie? The writers themselves even stated it's about a diverse team of minorities fighting the evil bigoted shitlord white man! It's everything good in film!
This guy thinks Episode III is better than A New Hope.

I find it funny that the overly dramatic negative reviews are coming from news paper sources that desperately need money and hits because they are a dinosaur for information.
I'm sure it'll be an entertaining but forgettable film that grosses hundreds of millions.
True, but he is in the minority of reviews so far.
"Rogue One" is definitive proof: "Star Wars" is back, baby.
-New York Post
This spin-off/prequel has the same primitive, lived-in, emotional, loopy, let's-put-on-a-show spirit that made us fall in love with the original trilogy.
-Rolling Stone
Much more than a mere sideshow in the Star Wars saga, these rebels build on a brilliant legacy.
-Toronto Star
Rogue One is a bright light in the Star Wars canon.
Chicago Sun-Times
Rogue One is a bold and stirring adventure film that will have both fans and casual observers spellbound.
-AP
This is a whole new stable of characters operating on the fringes of the world we know by heart. When you think about it, that's pretty exciting. And it opens up a world of cinematic possibilities moving forward.
-Entertainment Weekly
It stands alone as the best Star Wars entry since 1980's The Empire Strikes Back. Yes, it's that good.
-New York Daily News
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story answers the question of whether that galaxy far, far away is big enough to sustain multiple offshoots with an emphatic yes
-CNN
The Force Awakens may have reanimated the once-dormant franchise, but it's Rogue One that will give Star Wars fans a new hope.
-Slate
And so on...

That New Yorker article is really from the onion. Dude thinks the high watermark in the series is Attack of the Clones
Given its subject matter and time frame in Star Wars universe I don't see how it could not be dark and bleak. It be like going to a movie about the French resistance and expect it to be all rainbows and puppies.
Got tickets for tonight at 8. The inner-nerd in me is freaking the f**k out.
regardless of how good/bad it is, my wife wants to go, so we are going. the thing i learned a long time ago was that movie dates are less about liking the movie and more about bearing through a mindless sitting exercise for a couple hours to get the opportunity to exercise more vigorously for like the four hours afterwards.
You made it through phantom, clones and sith and it was force awakens that did it?I loved this movie. It takes a little bit to get going, but the final act is so, so good. One of the best endings in the saga.
It is a dark film. The only comic relief comes from Alan Tudyk (who is awesome).
It's a very different Star Wars film, but a lot of cameos and nods that it still feels a part of that world.

No ****. The originals and force awakens are the only decent star wars movies.
