And then we saw Luke literally send a hologram of himself across the galaxy to trick Ren. Ren, who just hid his intentions from Snoke and used force powers on him to move the lightsaber sitting literally beside him and then kill him.

At this point, it’s just difference of opinion. They obviously could have made Snoke out to be one of the strongest villains in Star Wars history, but they didn’t come close. Didn’t have nearly enough screen time to show that he was any stronger or better than Palptine.

Pretty sure it’s common knowledge many of the Avengers are dying in this movie - they are redirecting the MCU after this.

So yeah Thanos is killin’ some fools.



I wouldn't be shocked if only Vision and Drax are killed. I no faith after they neutered Ultron and made this pile of garbage we just saw.

The balls on these people. They really don’t get it:

Rian Johnson doesn’t care what you think

So pissing off the majority your fan base is how they want to do business

I think the DAMN good reason is the 2 billion dollar investment in the franchise and being able to maximise profit for this huge investment.

Thanos is going to get the Ultron treatment.

I’ve got faith in the Russo’s until proven otherwise. Winter Soldier is a masterpiece and Civil War was a solid follow up, especially the way they play out the conflict between Tony and Steve. I really think Steve sacrifices himself in this movie to save the group. He may not stay dead permanently but I just have a feeling that several characters will buy it.

You guys don't get it. You don't matter to Disney, you make up a pittance of the money they will make off this.

There will be more people in China that watch TLJ as their 1st Star Wars movie than the total population of the United States and their kids will want dolls of the Asian girl.

They have adapt the story for a global market very critical of traditional "American Values."

The whole space thing was stupid.

But yeah, Unless those bombs were rocket propelled, I don't see how they just fell like that...

Also, explosions in space...but I can give this a pass because it looks cool

Also, things being out of range of cannons in space...wouldn't the charges just keep going infinitely. Surely they could anticipate the speed of a slow-moving cruiser and just fire down its path. How the hell can something be out of range in space...

About the only thing right was Leia freezing in space instead of having her head explode which is one of the biggest false myths about space. You can live in space as long as it takes the oxygen in your blood to deplete or for your body to cease functioning due to the brutal cold.

Now you are really picking nits.

There have always been bombers in SW: Tie Bombers and Y-Wings.

Tie Bombers were bombing the asteroid that The Falcon was hiding on in Empire.

I feel Rian Johnson gets Star Wars about as much as Zach Snyder gets Superman.

Calm down. We are talking about a movie here, not real life. If you don't like it, watch something else. This thread is starting to be like the rant after a loss.

Go check the video. The bombs were more like missiles, they glowed(fire) upon release.
