Not sure if the algorithm is listening, but this video helps my current understanding of the US. The US is tremendously religious, and more acurately Christianity extremism. Still need to prove this, or verify (proof wrong), but I was wondering the current work ethics in the US were similar to "blessed if your doing great, damned if your not doing so great". And I notice that the upper class here in the US works as hard as the lower classes, like if they were in survival mode. This is kind of true because the US is a paramilitary state that need to preserve it's global position or power after the WWII. So the oligarchy in this country serves to this advantage only, so like the cold war, we cannot cut some slack.

Dude that Rose side plot idea wouldve been exactly what this movie needed. I honestly wasn't a big fan of Rose as a character in TLJ, but the mechanic -> diplomat arc sounds so cool for her character. It would fix so much in the story, and retroactively make her scenes in TLJ mean more. It's a shame that they just threw her character away like that.

12:20 about the British wiping tapes, this is actually much more intresting, basically film was stupid expensive those days so having to reuse tapes especially for more expensive series was common practice, it’s also why we don’t have more vintage doctor who episodes because the uk wiped those in order to film more episodes on them!

I love that the boxing catalyst came so late in the movie, and it's 100 percent because the movie isn't a boxing movie, it's a "person" movie. It's about Rocky, the boxing is just an extra bit to let him shine. All these movies these days are so overly trimmed that you can't get any connection. You need moments to let characters breathe, let beats hit. Hollywood is scarce in sincerity and big heartedness these days. I'm hoping we're due for one soon.

to be honest, I have always tried to like star wars. I love the IP, however the movies always let me with a weird after taste. I never cared about the other media: games, spin offs. During Disney era, I think it improved because we got Rogue One. That's the only movie that I liked from the franchise era, and it's top 3 of my star wars movies: empire strikes back, rogue one, and return of the sith.

i love these movies, but my biggest pet peeve is how hes a pirate is what the majority of people think of when they think of the soundtrack. These movies have one of the best soundtracks of all time, and while the first movies isnt the best its still incredibly good. but if you actually look and listen to the tracks for the first movie hes a pirate isnt even in there, and in the movie it isnt even played till the end of the movie and its just the end credit song.

This made me picture a scene with Finn and Poe connecting, and Poe telling Finn how much he respects him for defecting. Finn tells him he tried to abandon them in TLJ, says hes not sure if hes a good person. Poe struggles to respond but says something about how its not the doubts and fleeting thoughts you have, but the final action you take; use language in this dialogue that calls back to stuff in the Original Trilogy about the temptation of the Dark Side, Luke/Yodas whole thing of if he makes one error it's like the Dark Side getting a foot in the door, and calls it into question (obviously not namedropping Luke or something unnatural sounding like that) - but also recalling the fact Luke did falter but made the right decisions in the end, both int he Original Trilogy and in TLJ. Finn makes some reference to making the right decision eventually, and mentions that a very smart woman spoke to him and convinced him of what needed to be done. Cut to Rose going on her side mission and convincing planets to join the Rebellion. Obviously workshop it to make it work, but i think hitting those beats would be really cool and would also perform multiple roles; continuing a discussion from the Original Trilogy, telling us what the Rebellion really is, giving us a meaningful queer scene, tying Rose into the story and linking all three characters. It'd give us a synthesis of the thesis/antithesis of the Jedi being so monastic & the rigidness that led to their downfall, and the Light Side/Dark Side dynamic, and the synthesis comes through actually exploring what a Rebellion truly means (i.e. making a *decision* to be on the Light Side regardless of what you've done before [this would also resonate with Vader and Kylo Ren's arcs], and convincing others), which, if executed well, would be the cherry on top.

The Last Jedi actually made me excited to see the next one. When I heard it was basically just mindlessly pandering to the most toxic part of the fandom I didnt even bother. I still haven't seen Rise of Skywalker and i'm never going to waste my time. I would love it if they made a 9th movie to conclude the story from TLJ, maybe after the revolution when we finally destroy Disney and its lobbyist's copyright laws.

Even knowing something about philosophy they didnt really hit for me. But then, all these movies, *especially* the 4th one, suddenly clicked into focus when i realised i was trans. "Because I choose to/It was inevitable" hits like a tonne of bricks for me in that context.

You can tell from the book edits of the movies (ex. M4) that there is a good 3-4 hour movie in there. Although it doesn't solve the lack of character development for the dwarves, the book edits make it far less of an issue because the story is focused on Bilbo (as it should be).

@@rollingtim2164 Ironic considering your misconstruing my comment. I didn't disagree with his analysis did I? Just that the character was written in a very insufferable way. You could easily argue this was intentional, and I think it was. The video author didn't address this and even called his character cool. I guess it's not media analysis if your views don't align with a RU-vidr lol

7:19 Wrong. At some point there's a scene of some security guys at their computers and one of them is eating glo-blue noodles. These are, according to canon and a star wars cookbook, a recipe from the four armed cooking show host from the infamous 1977 star wars holiday special. Sad to see such an amazing show absolutely sold out for this self referencial garbage.

In a way, we are all victims of this atrocity of a movie. But in a more real way, it sounds like Jeff Vintar is the real victim. Like holy shit, i cant even imagine working on something that was just mine, having incompetent people order to me to pretend it has something to do with a more famous dead writer, and then have the most overrated actor on Earth come in with an ego rewrite. What a horrible experience that must have been.
