GDT: Avalanche vs Kraken Tuesday 11/5/24 @7:00PM (Emergency GDT) Lets elect a win!

whatever one's have Daisy Ridley

Oh the shows are for the most part hot garbage as well

Star Wars sequels make the prequels look good.
Andor is Star Wars for guys like me in our 50s who needed some goddamn validation for our continued fandom.
Star Trek is better, regardless.

With that out of the way...
I'm glad to see this result. It's a small bright spot to what else I woke up to and will lie to you all to say that the bender I'm now on is a celebratory one.
Because I often wake up after 4 hours sleep on a Tuesday and hit the whiskey hard when the Avs win.

I only watched the sequels for the first time a year or two ago and The Last Jedi was by far the best of the three. I don't know what all the fuss was about.

Boy do I love watching Mittelstadt with the puck. The longer you let him keep the puck, the more accurate his pass gonna be. I can't wait to see him play with legit top 6 players.

3rd line PP merchant MacK and PP quarterback specialist Frail Cale.

Kovalenko also up to 6 points in 13 games and Ivan with 5.

They're both doing a lot to help us stay relatively close to .500 quite frankly.

Shame on all the posters who picked a well-made film over the Disney trilogy. TLJ is not only the worst Star Wars movie ever made, it is one of the worst movies I've watched in my life.

I thought it was miles better than the other two.

I didn't love The Last Jedi but I appreciated a couple things Rian Johnson attempted with it. One, revealing that Rey wasn't of any special lineage, she was just a regular person (which Abrams very clumsily retconned in a way that made NO sense), second was that Snoke wasn't really the big bad, he was just an annoying figurehead (again, clumsily retconned by Abrams in the next film).

Still, for us to be robbed of seeing Han, Luke, and Leia all together again is just criminal. We should've gotten one last run from them before handing things off.

Where Johnson really failed was in not giving us one last Luke lightsaber fight. He deserved a better death than to simply fade away after a Jedi Zoom call.

The Mary Poppins scene is arguably the worst in the whole Star Wars franchise... in a series filled with some questionable scenes the fact that it stands out so much should show how bad TLJ is.

I thought it was miles better than the other two.

It was a crumbled messed-up story, horrible battle scenes, 2nd grade dialogue, and forced morality stuff all shoved down our throats (which everyone already knows about lol). Like the Asian woman nobody cares about is able to stop an entire fleet, but her sister randomly survives multiple death scenes just because she's Asian, then they randomly go to the Las Vegas planet which has nothing to do with anything of the original story just to tell us that rich people are somehow evil....in Hollywood of all places...considering this film made all those stars and director enough funds that they can live in Monaco for the rest of their lives, and finally most of the movie is a pathetic space race that comes across as a snail's pace along with an annoying blue hair woman nobody cares about as well as a CGI Princess Leia that can magically fly in space for unknown reasons. There is a threshold that even Sci-Fi movies should not cross and this one did that. The other two are also atrocious, but at least the first one of the Disney-made movies is okay and the last one had good character development. The worst cinema sin you can make is deus ex machina and TLJ is just a titanic portion of it.

They had Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford all alive and signed on for three movies. They never once appeared together in a scene. Unforgivable actually.

Then changing the characters entire psyches...Luke abandoning his friends and family? Really? After turning his father back to the light side? We legit had better stories daily as kids playing with the action figures.

 

[missionAvs]

Hahaha I just noticed what the vote was initially asking. I thought we were voting for the best mainline Star Wars movie and had Empire selected. I thought people were just trolling by picking the sequel trilogy films. I'm now on the same page after re-reading it. Picking a worst one in the sequel travesty is honestly just splitting hairs but I voted TLJ. They were all awful.

Mikko needs to step up his game.

Yep, I agree, to see them where they were just kinda invalidated the struggle they went through in the first trilogy. Yes, I know, some people will chime in and say it's more realistic, I say f*** that, Star Wars isn't "realistic."

I get that Harrison Ford only agreed to return if they finally killed off Han Solo (something he wanted in Return of the Jedi apparently and almost got) but they still could've gotten it done had they not written Luke in as a f***ing hermit.

Mikko needs to step up his game.

I mean, didn't he kinda do that last night?
