@john-folan I think they Will it’s almost like they’ve gone phew thank god those three films are done lol now we can be good with it.

Agree Rogue One was insanely good! I need to watch that again actually.

This is what we could have had. These are the from the game Star Wars The Old Republic. I have binged on Star Wars since 1977 so I know my stuff.

This is just pure Star Wars. Rian Johnson actually drew on some of this lore for The Last Jedi. If he hadn’t fucked up Luke Skywalker, Kylo Ren and Finn and tried(and failed) to be funny, that film would have been brilliant.

Anyway, enjoy this. It is immense.

Been watching 'The Circle' on Channel 4, not something I would choose to watch but actually getting quite into it, something funny about watching men try to play as women online and being convincing!

Yes second season really went up a gear, don’t you feel with the films it seemed a bit rushed. Like they’d told the world a new Star Wars was coming then it had to be out, instead of what would make this amazing.

Also was trying to tie in too many loose ends, maybe to get us guys there and a new audience.

This is exactly how I feel about the sequels. We need more Rogue Ones. That was almost perfect.

I hope they stick to their new approach. They have applied it to the MCU if the first two episodes of WandaVision is anything to go by.

Ryan

@matt-wood I think they will and they’ll have a lot of good spin offs - saw a list of ones they have said are coming it’s mental.

Matt Wood

@ryan-carruthers Looking forward to the second season. I think the films were used to push a political agenda rather than just make an interesting and entertaining story but the Disney owns Star Wars now so they can do what they like with it I guess.

Hopefully the new series they are planning will be similar in feel to the Mando

Started the Mandolorian now, feels like Star Wars should feel they got this one right! Not convinced by the lead actor though. Carano is good, fight scenes with here are very realistic, but then you would expect that given her past career and the level she got to.

He grows on you and the second season will have you jizzing in your stormtrooper outfit.

Its a good job my trooper outfit is white then

@matt-wood Yes 100% the second season is really good, there's going to be loads of series as well which I think they will get right.

They have learnt from the clusterfuck that was the sequels

Watched 'Calm With Horses' (Netflix) a few days back. Very good low budget film, some good acting with a decent story.
