Re: Star Wars: Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (2017)
Are we ready for luke to be a grumpy Asshole in this film?
I spose it's a natural progression from whiney farm boy.
Just wonder if he can hit the sweet spot on being old and a bit cranky and not too much into unlikeable.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (2017)
I am. I want Luke to be completely different than we've ever seen him. On multiple levels. He'll never be "unlikeable" because he's already the hero of our hearts. As long as the film takes 10 seconds to explain why he's cranky, we'll identify and sympathize with him. We'll be on his side.dimejinky99 wrote:Are we ready for luke to be a grumpy Asshole in this film?

I'm hoping and guessing we're gonna get quite a good lengthy explanation on that. Either from Luke explaining to Rey and maybe some flashback shots or something. I can see Rian really exploring that.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (2017)
Mainly yeah.
It's actually only a week out. It's released the 15th. I thought it was the 17th to some reason.
Still though. Really odd move for an organisation so hell bent on secrecy. Some assholes gonna spill the beans.

How far in advance was the TFA screening? I don't remember anything leaking between then and the release day. Granted, I'm not glued to the sites/podcasts.dimejinky99 wrote:Mainly yeah.

TFA premiere was 4 days before general release. And crucially in that short time, the rumours of Hans death that were floating around for months, were confirmed and spoiled fully before general release.
