adam is doing his version of a "hilarious" spoof of the talking points he imagines rubeish fanboys are intended by disney to regurgitate in youtube reviews, shame on you otmers for encouraging him in thinking this is a fiendishly witty bit of commentary on the state of things

it’s hard to tell when adam is just giving impressions or very cynically commenting because he’s on a level of irony several levels removed from anything mortals can decipherI think he’s just giving a good everyman commentary but idk

i think adam legit likes this shitty movie
― flamenco drop (BradNelson), Wednesday, 27 December 2017 06:02 (six years ago) link
i actually liked this movie, no trolling. this movie was actually really good. this is my real opinion
tbh i usually am not trolling when i post and it feels like reverse trolling when it is constantly brought up.

these were all nobody characters but you got their motivations, you got who they are, how they interact together, you even saw them change and adapt to the situation. all these new characters that only have minutes of screen time apiece. it's really efficient scripting.

yeah, fuck ILX hivemind this movie was good
― Nhex, Thursday, 28 December 2017 20:27 (six years ago) link
yeah i think i liked this more than the force awakens or last jedi tbh
― h.p. minecraft (bizarro gazzara), Thursday, 28 December 2017 20:30 (six years ago) link
Definitely better than last jedi

better than TFA I'll grant
I love Rogue One. Can rewatch it anytime. I can't say that for TFA and probably won't for TLJ as well.
― Acid Hose (Capitaine Jay Vee), Friday, 29 December 2017 01:22 (six years ago) link
It's also a beautifully designed and shot film ( score sucks, though, which has been the case with all these post-Prequel SW flicks).
― Acid Hose (Capitaine Jay Vee), Friday, 29 December 2017 01:25 (six years ago) link
I think I’ll be able to say that about TLJ and RO in a few years. Have already figured out that I’d rather rewatch almost any Marvel movie over TFA when I’m in the mood for some junk viewing (tbf I don’t consider any of the Captain America ones to be junk, I take take that shit very seriously)
― El Tomboto, Friday, 29 December 2017 01:31 (six years ago) link
I will never watch TFA again unless some notional kid of mine is into it but I'm hella ready for TLJ & RO rescreens

TFA is the one I most enjoy rewatching
― Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 29 December 2017 06:23 (six years ago) link
lately, anyway
The now yearly barrage of release hype boots out any consideration or perspective of the current or previous year’s film, so I feel like it’s going to take a good 5 years of time away before these things even approach the possibility of being fairly ranked.

Freely admit, the sheer lack of ANYTHING from the Solo movie still is getting a little weird. (Saying this because Marvel just dropped the Ant-Man and the Wasp trailer and that comes out two months after the Solo film, and since they're both Disney properties and all...)
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 30 January 2018 14:30 (six years ago) link
The one rumor I heard is that they're planning some sort of big publicity blitz with the Super Bowl, which I can see.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 30 January 2018 14:31 (six years ago) link
so you find their lack of footage disturbing?
maybe they're still panicking about how to integrate the stuff lord and miller shot with the ron howard reshoots / new scenes
kinda feel like this is gonna be a real piece of shit tbh

What makes you feel that, besides it being a young Han Solo movie?
― Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 30 January 2018 14:36 (six years ago) link
well yeah the premise seems kinda pointless right from the off, but look at this production timeline:
June 20th, 2017: Lord & Miller depart their Han Solo spin-off film (then known only as Young Han Solo) for Disney, mere weeks from wrapping principal photography. June 22nd, 2017: Ron Howard settles into the director's chair, replacing Lord & Miller. October 17th, 2017: Production wraps on Howard's film, and it officially receives the title Solo: A Star Wars Story. October 31st, 2017: Reports surface suggesting that Howard re-shot upwards of 80% of Solo, and that the majority of Lord & Miller's footage - including Michael K. Williams - is either cut or replaced (in the case of Williams, with Paul Bettany). December 20th, 2017: Howard states that his Solo will be a "gangster movie".

reshooting that much of a movie so close to release date seems insane to me, and choosing ron howard to direct seems to suggest disney want the most anodyne, marker-hitting take on the story cuz that's what he's good at

So this has in common with Ant-Man and the Wasp that it won’t even be as good as Ant-Man, already a pretty low bar?
― Andrew Farrell, Tuesday, 30 January 2018 14:44 (six years ago) link
that timeline also puts such a crunch on post-production that i sort of assume that most or all of the effects sequences were locked in and whatever howard did had to work around them, which doesn't exactly promise a seamlessly unfolding, well-paced narrative.

it makes absolutely no sense to rush this out for May
― mh, Tuesday, 30 January 2018 15:00 (six years ago) link
it does if you're a disney shareholder i guess

Exactly. Christmas make more sense anyway now they've had 3 in a row.

I thought everyone assumed it's going to be pushed back to December anyway
― groovypanda, Wednesday, 31 January 2018 08:12 (six years ago) link
Rumor flurry of a trailer on Monday's GMA, but the initial listing showing that has been revised.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 1 February 2018 20:27 (six years ago) link
they've decided to sack the Solo film and instead are giving us a Hutt trilogy featuring Robert Deniro as Jabba
― fuck you, your hat is horrible (Neanderthal), Thursday, 1 February 2018 21:27 (six years ago) link
He's gonna gain 400lbs for the role.

It's Red Letter Media, so good call.
― Andrew Farrell, Friday, 2 February 2018 08:14 (six years ago) link
It's meant to be parody of nerd-culture youtube enthusiasts, which is a good idea and needs more making fun of, but I'm increasingly tired of RLM's faux-cynicism (in the end most shit gets a positive review except they hate on forced diversity or whatever).
