Doing a Star Wars musical. Pete still hasn't seen Les Mis. Kabuki theater version of either this movie or the Force Awakens. Focusing on Kylo as the main character of the trilogy or Kylo and Rey as co main characters.
This minute has the first evidence of a force connection between Kylo and rey. Is the theme of this movie just telecommunication? We the beacon plus this, plus the video call with maz and later Luke telecommutes across the whole galaxy.
The dialog between jj Abrams and Rian Johnson is played out in connection to kylo Ren. It's like a tug-of-war.
Adam driver successfully plays much younger than his actual age.
The medical droid is the it-s00.2 referenced: the razor Wars. The thing about medical Droid is you don't have to make small talk with him the way you would a human doctor. Alex: avoiding small talk with strangers is my raison d'etre. Using the machine or the app to do orders or check out groceries rather than talking to a person. Alex is notorious for wanting his food to be plane Meadow notes plain hamburger.
What Droid would tame want? Not a C-3PO type Droid because he would ascribe all sorts of emotions to its blank immovable face such as passive-aggressive.
As much as we r2, Tim would have to go with a BB unit has a little more flexible. Which one would be more fun to have around. R2 probably has more movies and video games installed.
A protocol Droid wearing a full pullover face mask. Tim also thinks it should have been C3PO to do the holdo maneuver. Just to see him make any kind of choice in these movies. Technically he does make a choice in the rise of Skywalker but it is undone by the end of the movie. Referenced Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy. Alex quotes re: C-3PO crying. Goldschlager dripping down his face. But C3PO volunteering himself for a dangerous mission is totally out of character Pete quotes (cheerily) instant death!
It would be ironic if C3PO who is one of the most famous cowards in the entire galaxy went down in history for his bold war move.
Tim saw the movie three times in theaters and least seven times since then. Her Tim the joy of Star Wars is getting to poke fun at it in good faith. Tim's other General thoughts about this movie, its place in the franchise. Did you have your own version of this movie in your head? Tim's version has the first order and the resistance joining forces to fight a external Force represented by snoke. Kid quotes that would be very Star Wars. "Oh you killed snoke, on the movie guess what bigger snow. Two Snokes."
This movie is kylo Ren achieving what Darth Vader never could basically Darth Vader becoming the emperor. Where you go from there, Well turns out you go to the same place you were before but bigger. Alex quotes Pete your Pete the retailer or Peter bonavita Pete who? -->
