I finally watched The Force Awakens. That was pretty good! I'm thinking Rogue One this evening and maybe the new one Saturday morning. That gets me caught up, right?

I don't know whether Rogue One is that essential (though someone who has already seen TLJ might be able to elaborate). It's a prequel to Star Wars, so takes place much earlier. TFA is the important one. I watched it again last night and was amazed by how much I'd forgotten.

My 3-day rental from Amazon expires tomorrow, so I might watch it again. Fun to be excited for Star Wars again!

Hey. New board.
Rogue One is probably not required for The Last Jedi, but if you're on a Star Wars kick it's lots of fun!
Plus it's on Netflix right now so why not?

Hey. New board.
Are we talking about the last Jedi here?
I am still processing so don't have much to say really except I really liked it.

I just got back from The Last Jedi and WOW. So much fun. I'm seeing it again tomorrow! I took my Son-in-Law and he was bouncingly excited before AND after.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Lots of good stuff.

The Last Jedi was really good! I felt sad seeing Carrie Fisher for the last time (barring extra footage and/or computer manipulations). But the movie was great.

The last scene between her and Luke really took on extra meaning. Kind of eerie, given her death.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I *loved* it. I'm surprised it's getting such mixed reviews elsewhere, because I thought it was both great on its own terms AND as a remix of the Empire tropes it was playing with.
(The geography of the planet where the last bit takes place was fairly brilliant, with the layer of white over red salt allowing them to effectively start the final battle on Hoth and end it on Tatooine.)
And I teared up literally every time Carrie Fisher was onscreen.
