The political subtext was awful. So fucking PC is almost right wing.

American politics. I’m hardly in the mood for cuddly platitudes these days.

Yeah, the stuff with Del Toro's character was a little juvenile. No shit people profit from war.

What about a 4k Blu Ray of your favorite film? I want you to feel joy!

Pitch Perfect opening.

This is my favorite post of all time, Ruddo.

I... I'd die for you.

"Hi, I'm holding for General Hux."

God. I loved that so much.

Also TFA "Who talks first, you talk first? i talk first?"

Poe is gonna be huge in Episode 9. I believe it.

He'll have to be if JJ really elects to kill Leia in the opening crawl.

I think that's a huge mistake. I really want them to recast and proceed when Leia being the total badass they set up I this film.

But I really don't think that'll happen.

recast princess leia? come on, dude.

I really don't understand why people are so opposed to this. It's completely stupid to me. After what the character went through in this film? I mean, I get "how" they won't do that. But it's absurd. The story clearly wants her to continue. They should recast the part at serve the character.

[LoathedVermin72]

There’s no way they’d ever recast. I could see them going the CGI route, though.

They already said they wouldn't do CGI. So that leaves either off-screen death or continuing the story they way they should. They'll absolutely do off-screen death. And Ep 9 will be all the worse for it.

I think Leia can be a character in the next film but never actually on screen. I'd be up for that. She can still be giving orders or a part of the resistance while she's off doing...something?

No it wont. This story isn't about Leia, luke, or Han.

I mean... sure? But how unsatisfying. Given what we learn about Leia in this movie, I feel like anything other than letting her continue on as a character is a cheat and unsatisfying. Again, I'm 100% prepared for them to do just this. But it's a shame. Leia deserves better. Especially given what she was able to do in TLJ.

I'm positive the opening line of the Ep 9 crawl will be something about The Resistance in the wake of Leia's Shocking Death.

[Anders]

I think she needs to die, as both a recasting or being off screen the whole movie wouldn't work. But I would like to see her in the beginning of the movie. Don't know how. Perhaps they have a unused scene from TLJ they could work in and around. Like her ship blowing up at the start of the movie.

What did she really do though? I don't view her as this massive hero in the episode. She was still a strong leader (and maybe im blanking on some things!) but Holdo made the ultimate sacrifice, she lead while Leai was out, and by the end of the movie she directed the remaining resistance fighters to follow Poe.

LEIA LITERALLY USED THE FORCE TO OVERCOME DEATH

Not to become one with the Force. Not to become a fucking ghost. But to overcome the infinite cold and pressure of fucking space to come back to life.

I don't understand how you just go, "Welp, never mind. She dead" in the next movie. The character is obviously meant to do much, much more. She's not done. And maybe the whole thing isn't "about Leia" but letting the character die just because the actress unfortunately passed is idiotic. I get that people love Carrie. But it'd disrespectful to Carrie and Leia and to the legacy of both to just pretend like the things we learned about her in TLJ don't matter an now she's just...gone.

That's what's gonna happen. I get it. I'm prepared for it. But it's criminal. It's such a shame.
