You guys really take your Star Wars seriously.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

That's not "a truth," that's just an opinion, even if more than one person shares it. That you don't understand the distinction between opinion and facts is part of the problem.

If I've misinterpreted your meaning,you can correct me and/or clarify your points. Communication is a two way street. I can only understand you based on what you write, I'm not a mind reader.

Not that my opinion matters much, but as someone that has given Mike86 plenty of light hearted shit for some of his comments in various DC movie threads, I disagree completely with the characterization of him described above. I've been able to call him out on his opinions that I felt were unreasonable and have a normal debate about it without him playing any sort of victim card in a resentful manner.

Trying to be honest without getting too offensive here but as The Last Jedi thread has also shown me, once these discussions turn in to picking apart people's terminology word for word and holding them to their very literal definitions to try and prove someone is wrong is also when these topics stop being fun to discuss. Others may enjoy being so specific and clarifying every single detail and every single word in those back and forths, but I'd rather just ignore those kind of responses now - not because I feel wrong or defeated - but because it's a chore.

Taking into consideration that both the subsequent releases of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, both the 2015 Supreme Cinema Series release and the UHD release don’t use the same remaster from the 2007 release, it looks like the people who called out just how shitty it was were right all along.

Answer print, my ass!

baracine was right!

Or maybe they changed it because of whiny fanboys and toxic fans...

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

Wrong thread?

I think everyone knew that answer print excuse given by Sony was them covering up how bad it looked.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

I ain’t the one who dredged that thread up here...

Though that particular discussion might provide some lessons that apply here.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

I brought it up as an example of my tenacity, not whether I was right or not.

To bring it back to this thread, Rian Johnson's trilogy may well end up cancelled. Hell, it may already be canceled. However, that doesn't mean that Mike86's speculation on Iger's comments was correct or well reasoned. An argument isn't a good argument just because it accidentally turns out to be right. I was arguing against his speculation based on the merits of the speculation, which were none.

wave of his hand no, nod to the comic using a lightsaber? yes!

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

Because you constantly attack people's opinions and what I bolded shows that despite your high and mighty attitude and perception that you are just providing facts and arguing facts you are in fact attacking people's opinions that are subjective but you call them wrong and poor. So yeah constantly telling people their opinions suck is highly arrogant.

And for the record I wasn't calling you an arrogant asstard. I was telling both you and Mike86 how you both come across as you blamed Mike86 that he had no idea how he was coming across to other people so I provided that perspective for both of you.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

That was soooo awesome to see back in 1991, when there hadn’t been any new Star Wars in eight years. Then, boom, there’s Luke taking down a fucking AT-AT.

(I think Heir to the Empire came out a couple of months before, but I didn’t get to read it until I picked the book up off of a remainder table.)

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

Criticizing people's opinions is something that's allowed in this forum, and I'd argue something essential to forum discussion. Also, using the terms "wrong" and "poor" to describe something subjective is something that happens all the time too. How many times has criticism of movies included those words? They're not signs of someone claiming their views are factual.

Criticizing my tone as "arrogant" is fine, calling me an "asstard" isn't, even if you tried to couch it terms like I "come off ass" one. There was no reason for you to use the word "asstard" at all to make your point.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

These last two pages have become pretty tiring when trying to glean any useful discussion about future projects. Hopefully y'all can come to a conclusion soon, and the topic can get back in line.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

To sum up: there's no new info on future projects, aside from Iger saying that Disney is going to "slow down."

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

Having a healthy discussion about opinions is great. Quoting someone specific and saying their opinion is wrong and poor isn't. That's how you come across. It's like having a discussion about ice cream flavor and someone saying their favorite is vanilla and you saying nope that's wrong. Chocolate is clearly the best. So you pointing out that your speculation is clearly superior to someone else's is just ridiculous and tiresome.

I actually enjoy your defense of certain points of contention and when you present your take on things. But when you constantly badger people and say they are wrong for their opinion and especially when you present no counter argument except for your opinion is better than theirs that's what rubs people the wrong way.

And now you know how irritating it can be to point out grammatical minutiae to defend a ridiculous statement.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

Oh god, I was wrong. This thread can get worse than reiterating old arguments about TLJ.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

No, the latter is allowed too. And I attack the reasoning given for the opinion, not the opinion itself. I would never attack someone's personal preference for ice cream, but if they said "chocolate sucks as a flavor because...." I may attack the reasoning behind saying chocolate is bad.

I agree, which is why I never said that. My point was that my speculation was equally valid, which means that any speculation of what Iger's statements meant towards Rian Johnsons trilogy were meaningless, since there wasn't a single clear interpretation base on the facts at hand.

Cite an instance where I didn't provide reasoning for my opinion as a counter.

How? Calling me an asstard wasn't "grammatical minutiae," it was namecalling. Even a mod said it was a personal attack. Trying to twist that into a "lesson" for me, instead of apologizing for violating a forum rule for civil discourse, shows who's really acting arrogant.

Gary Kurtz one of the producers on Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back has died at 78.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

I figure no SW movie for 2020. It'd suck if there's no SW movie for 2021 either.

I'd guess May 2022 for a new trilogy.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

Kotor kotor kotor ffs!!!

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

RIP to Gary Kurtz. Maybe he could've saved or at least made the prequels bearable.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

Works for me.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

Hopefully not directed by Rian Johnson.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

He can direct it, as long as he’s kept on a short leash and gets zero story input. The dumbfuck isn’t fit to write a beer commercial.

Re: Future Star Wars projects discussion thread - news, rumors, etc.
 

Anybody here watch Mike Zeroh's content on Youtube? He has a lot of interesting stuff about the SW movies upcoming and if his rumors are to be believed, it could be a really cool future. That said, i don't know if the guy is totally crazy or has an insider; he spews a LOT of potential spoilers.
