I think they believed they made a film SW fans would love, but I think were taken a bit back by the backlash. If an outrage of 20 min of olaf short in front of a original film had already caused disney to react to remove it, I am pretty sure disney won't be happy or take it lightly for all the backlash of SW8 Edited January 5, 2018 by titanic2187 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adm56 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I wouldn't be surprised if Disney announced the new trilogy as a show of support for a film they had internal concerns about. But who knows. They will course correct after Solo. If Rian can't come up with something more upbeat creative differences will be cited. They didn't buy Lucasfilm to be profitable. They want all the moneys. I just wish they would slow down and Improve the writing. Issues with cannon aside I think TLJ was a paint by numbers story that other than nonsensical twists wasn't as original as people suggest (Too many Empire and RotJ callbacks). And despite all the broken dishes doesn't open up the universe all that much IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The former is in my top five all time, but I'll admit TWBB took some time to grow on me (DDL is great in it even though his Gangs of New York role is still my favorite performance of his). But I also thought Inherent Vice was terrible (although hats off to Katherine Waterson for being very fit). Magnolia has some issues (I don't care for the very beginning or very end) but is strong otherwise. Punch Drunk Love and The Master are a bit meh but PSH is great in the latter. I admit i have not seen Boogie Nights. The films of his that I have seen though have been super boring and pretentious. Also why are all his films 3 hours long? Like being boring alone is bad enough, but dragging that out and making me bored for as long as possible... its just not fair. In that respect I suppose Punch Drunk Love is the one I dislike the least because it is the shortest. Literally half the length of Magnolia Edited January 5, 2018 by Tree Billboards 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narniadis Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I echo Tree, TWBB is the only one I tolerate and that is at a fine, I can see the craftsmanship level. Otherwise PTA is a snoozefest. Never bothered with Inherent Vice and doubt I will here unless DDL wins the BA statue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
