Anyone existed for the new Star Wars, I'm a fan of the original trilogy, so I'm certainly not, not after the way they have treated Han and Luke and all the others.
I enjoyed The Force Awakens but The Last Jedi was very forgettable and not great. Rogue One was both forgettable and boring, and Solo was just stupid. So I can only hope that Rise of Skywalker will be better

You find out in the gin ad. Watch it. She has no ring on her finger.
Meh. I think she would be perfect in a movie lead as an exercise company’s ad executive, stranded in a snowstorm in Pleasant Valley, PA, who decides to give up her high profile life to help run a Christmas tree farm with a widower and his two kids. Or has that one been done already? :)

Dio, Dio, Dio, you're forgetting about the muscled lumberjack rogue type character who is going to save them from the snow storm!

Not a fan of Disney Star Wars at all, in the original series we had Luke, Han and Leah, who do we have in this new trilogy? Nobody, even the prequels had interesting characters.

Agreed sir. Completely unimpressed by this new plot line, it just seems to fall flat. Not much character development at all. Been shaking my head thru first two movies. I'll see the third one, they'll get my money because I'm always going to go see a Star Wars movie but there's a bunch of Star Wars books out there with some really good plot lines, I hope Disney chooses one of those because this one has just been a swing and a miss.

She also recorded some Snow Globe Christmas movie off channel #1300 and something. I thought it was porn as those channels start around there. I think, mind you, not that I would know about that....
Notice how everyone nowadays is capitalizing on the Hallmark Channel Movie success? And you all think I’m cockadoodle. I know a winning formula when I see one. :)

Oh, what, you aren't invested in the plot of Rey or Finn? Hahahah. Nope, after the way they treated Lucas they don't deserve it.

I'm mainly irritated with the fact of Rey going from basically a scavenger to jedi friggin' master with no training or plot development. I l liker her character, I sincerely do, she's got moxy and reminds me a lot of Han Solo, but she kind of APPEARS all of a sudden and now she's some super jedi...I just don't get that. Also, this whole Luke Skywalker thing about the brooding, "I don't want this burden of the force" crap? Meh, that's not how I remember Luke Skywalker. The whole plot line just seems rife with comic relief and a disjointed story line. I know, it made millions at the box office and I'm probably in the minority but as an old school Star Wars person who was completely and totally blown away by the original trilogy, it just left me very much wanting some old school Start Wars...lol

I have an idea for a Hallmark movie Dio, gonna get this into production. It's featuring Marsha, and she has been offered a high flouting job in some place, doesn't really matter, but she decides to put it off in order to help Stephen with

Luke Skywalker was the most optimistic, loving, caring characters, and an inspiration for many. What did Rian Johnson do? Yep, destroyed Luke. I don't know who that guy in TLJ is. Check this out:

Adam Driver was pretty great in TFA, his performance drove a lot of it, he’s a much more entertaining piece of sh#t than Anakin ever was. Well, at least intentionally.
