As to Epi 9, I'm out. This will be the first time in 42 years that I will NOT be attending the cinema to watch the latest SW movie.
Disney and KK have successfully driven me away.

I was initially, but again, after having time to process the entirety of the two movies and understanding how Disney has completely abandoned the crucial, simple elements that make SW what it is, I've realized that they have completely mishandled everything and are not worthy of consideration.

"I can't say much more, but I'm so excited about it and so grateful to be a part of it," she adds. "Star Wars is my heart. I love it."
Maybe he literally means magical, and they are going to use magic to undo what was done in the previous film. It was Rey's vision. She never left the cave on the island...
The first line of the film will be, "who the fuck is Rose?" [Reply]

ThrowAnother9’ also discussed multiple impressions from the set of the film, which is apparently the first time he’s ever been on a Star Wars set.
He refused to spoil anything, given that jobs would be on the line if he did, but he was willing to share that two co-workers that are longtime fans of the franchise and Legends material – one of whom enjoyed The Last Jedi, and one who decidedly did not – were both immensely satisfied with the footage that was coming together. As in, “tears of joy” satisfied.
That’s some high praise. He also noted that this praise didn’t mean that fans would like absolutely everything in the film, but it certainly seems like Lucasfilm is happy with the film.
Outside of internal reactions, ThrowAnother9 explained that the scale of the film is incredibly large, even by Star Wars standards, and fans will be surprised. Filming is currently focused on the third act of the film, which only makes sense with how J. J. Abrams prefers to film his movies in sequence as much as possible.
A lot is being filmed in a short period of time, which makes the technical accomplishments on the film all the more impressive. There’s also an abundance of behind-the-scenes content being produced simultaneously during the production, so it’s possible that we could see documentaries as extensive as Secrets of The Force Awakens: A Cinematic Journey and The Director and the Jedi hit the Blu-Ray. One last thing he stated is that the Millennium Falcon is back, but that goes without saying. [Reply]

This kind of thing leaks out of every Star Wars film.
They said it about the prequels.
They said it about the sequels.
They even said TLJ was the best film since Empire and it was mostly a flaming piece of crap for a lot of Star Wars fans.

I've tried watching three episodes so far and haven't finished a single one. Without going into much detail, don't watch this. It is literally unwatchable. [Reply]

*To be fair I guess, this IS a young children's show. At least that what it feels like from the little bit I've watched. Nothing like Clone Wars or Rebels. The animation of space battles is top notch, but the people animation is some kind of morphed Fern Gully look. It's....strange. [Reply]

I really want to disagree with you, but I'm having a hard time getting there. JJ is going to have to stand up tall if he's going to pull a miracle out of his ass and right the ship after TLJ. And if he can't, well, I guess we can all wait 10-15 years for someone to come in and "re-do" VII, VIII, and IX? [Reply]
