Mark Hamil has this great story with lunch with Harrison Ford. He ends up doing this killer impersonation of him.
  9:48pm

funny to hear Mark Hamill was typecast as a villain before Star Wars

@Danne D well he is probably the best Joker ever, so I could sort of see it.

JakeGould:

Well, I saw “The Last Jedi” and my complaint has little to do with “Star Wars” universe stuff, but rather the pacing, editing and need to shove TONS of unneeded jokes that seemed to be right out of “Spaceballs” in the film.

The overall plot points and even the scenes that straight lifted shots and ideas from the original trilogy? I can deal with. But if they played every “jokey” thing seriously, that would have made this a better film.

  10:23pm

@AlexF: Ha! Rey cutting down a boulder with a lightsaber was awesome… And that very cool moment was ruined by someone saying “You know what this scene needs? That huge rock almost comedically killing two frog nuns who are caretakers on the island…”

Hey NDBOB !

(Yo,Sara!)

Love "Spaceballs".
  10:34pm
Switchblade Batman:

I have a similar beef @jakegould. I thought it was waaaay too quippy and needed some editing.

But overall I thought it was an excellent addition, and I liked how it was a transitional movie.

Jim the poet:

Not enough Jar Jar

that Ben Tucker piece is the jam.
Love that bass solo.
  10:40pm

@JimthePoet: I think that four breasted thing that Luke randomly milks out of nowhere more than fulfills the Jar Jar quota.

the jokes and green milk are definitely a little too on the nose in some spots, no question

I liked that cow thing. I felt it was an homage to A New Hope

Rey as forward/backwards reflections in that “Dark Side of the Force” realm was great. Too bad that was it.

that was my bad @blee, got ahead of myself on the credit for Comin' Home Baby. Herbie Mann version there

JakeGould:

Also, will Finn learn how to kiss a human being by the next episode? Between the last film and this film, he’s clenching his mouth like he’s holding in vomit. I’ve seen more realistic kisses in Hal Roach comedies.

Fleeeeeeep!
  10:50pm
JakeGould:

@SwitchbladeBatman: Yeah, but what was the basis of that explanation? Darth Vader revealing himself as Luke’s father is one thing. In this case how—and why—would Kylo Ren know? There was too much “saying” and not enough “showing” in the film; exposition is not storytelling.
  10:50pm
devlawn:

I'm enjoying this set, good stuff dez.
  10:51pm
JakeGould:

Anyway, given the tone Rian Johnson is taking—and Disney is backing—I wonder if “The Star Wars Holiday Special” will be acknowledged in future films. Maybe Lumpy and the rest of Chewbacca’s family shows up?

Underappreciated fact, Disney is actually NOT the happiest place on earth.
Avatar 10:55pm
James Fernandez:

thanks, dev. Jake, I do think you are right about saying vs. showing. They rely a lot on the information revealed in the books without keying into them in the film, like how Kylo found out Vader was his grandfather. I don' t think they have in film yet.
Avatar 10:56pm
James Fernandez:

enjoy it Hola!!!
  10:57pm
JakeGould:

@JamesFernandez: Well, I didn’t know that regarding the books. I think what’s happening with these Disney films its they are purely the tent-poles that hold up all the other media connected to the “saga” now. I wonder if—for example—things like the “Star Wars: Battlefront” world will be used to explain things even more.
