As there isn't a single original thought in this movie, I can guarantee you with absolute certainty that she is Luke's kid. Orphan with a super powerful jedi daddy. Its a lock. Bet your house on it. DOne.

How are any of you in anyway surprised or upset that L_V didnt like it?


So he didn't like the movie. You don't like half the movies he does.

I like how stip assumes Armond White is a racist

I don't know the names of many film critics. But you I know his. You know why?


Cause I believe he was the only major reviewer on the entire planet to rate Toy Story 3 as a bad movie.

i just take solace in the fact that LV's reasons for hating it and Stip's reasons for liking it are mostly wrong. Thats the only way I can agree with either and continue to live with myself.

If any of us consistently were a buzzkill for the sake of it in another forum we'd be banned quite quickly. I like lv but he's not addin to the conversation he's just being a contrarian cranky bastard for his own fun.

and I bet if we had just let him state his opinion once without telling him how he's wrong, he probably wouldn't have posted again. He's basically providing us the same type of fan service JJ did.

Also, I still HATE the way they referenced the falcon before showing it. I enjoyed the movie more as I think about it, but that just still bugs the ever loving hell out of me.

Jurassic World was significantly worse than Jurassic Park 3: Look Out Run.
