I just love how much LV is talking about the stories/themes in these movies.

Ultimately I think TLJ's biggest crime is being...well, just kind of like every other big movie out there, to be honest. I found it thoroughly mediocre and unmemorable. Nothing about its artistry or craftsmanship excites me. I'm sure I would be more willing to forgive issues with how TFA's and TLJ's themes and narratives relate to how I view the OT if I liked them as works of art in their own right.

As if that were possible.




I’m only fuckin around with LV but he is totally talking horseshit when he does talk about Star Wars.
This is the exact same post you already made. Again, you are just saying I'm wrong. Thanks for your vital input.

That's fine. And this is where we, and many people, will always just not see eye to eye.

We’re talking about different things though. You have a completely different and flawed understanding of the saga and everything contained within.
You’re wrong to begin with and aren’t open to being corrected or even willing to listen to anyone telling you why. Basically there’s no talking to you and when anyone disagrees you turn angry and start condescending and bein a prick when there’s no need to. (Most recently that remark to Strat a few pages back and stip).

Give over and stick to what you know. Transformers and such.

*it wasn’t an apology it was a clarifaction that this is rm and we are only ever taking the piss and it doesn’t really matter at the end of the day and you’re a millenial and think you are master of the universe and we will be here to point out you’re not and laugh at you and with you when you yourself realise you aren’t. Fam *fistbump hip with the kids*

Again...I'm wrong, you're right. No explanation. And this is probably the most condescending/prick-ish post I've ever read on RM, so why don't you just eat shit?

Oh fuck off. I've been trying to discuss the movies and all he's said is "you're talking out your ass," "you're talking horseshit," and "you're a dumb millennial who will realize you're wrong someday."

Anders was the instigator in this instance albeit unknowingly.

I’m just determined to get this thread past TFAs 700 pages. I’m delighted LVs back in here to help achieve that goal.

Rm is dying a slow death apparently. We need spirited debate to keep it going :)

And you just told me to fuck off. You tell people who dumb they are because they dont get art, how much smarter you are and more knowledgeable you are in movies and art then everyone else. Your comment to me a few pages back. You can be a real condescending dick and it comes out when you get angry with dime over Star Wars.

Make fun of me. Dont be a dick. There is a difference and a line.

You are guilty, sir. Own up to it. You both are. Its annoying. Stop it. There are real people on the other side of the screen.

Yeah, I told you to fuck off because you accused me of being just as complicit in this, when I never said shit to dime and he just kept hounding me and derailing the discussion without adding anything. So, yeah, fuck off with that bullshit.

I never called anyone dumb. dime did. I didn't.

My comment to you was dismissive because I thought you were being dismissive without actually rebutting anything. I'm sorry if I misinterpreted.
