    Star Wars : Rogue One

    You're assuming the beamed transmissions which Vader mentions are the Death Star plans. They could have just been rendezvous communications. You're also assuming 'vulnerable' means 'I'm worried the Death Star will be totally destroyed'. It could mean 'I'm worried the Death Star will be heavily...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I didn't seem to have a problem with the falling-toward-shit-with-flashy-lights mechanic. Kinda fun I guess. But the combat felt as shallow as a kiddie pool. Am I just supposed to floatkick everything to death? I'm giving deep consideration to switching from PS4 to XBONE at this point... God...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Fanboys (autists mostly) like this movie because it has Star Warsy things in it, presented with high visual and canonical fidelity. Non-Star-Wars (normies mostly) fans like this movie because explosions. These are not mutual,y exclusive. Unfortunately, the rest of us are left with a bland...

    God I hope they do this well and it isn't just a shallow jack-off session about meeting Chewie and doing the Kessel run.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    We'll see where they go with the story in Eps 8 & 9, but it's entirely possible that the repetition you're complaining about is an intentional part of the overarching theme of the trilogy.

    I watched it last week. It's an excellent Star Wars movie.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    TFA's rewatch-quality is excellent. I've probably watched it 7 or 8 times at this point. I do not expect that from R1 at all. It's a boring ass movie with a bunch of top-tier awesome fanservice. I doubt I'll care to see that more than a few times over the course of my life.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Yeah, I've heard people make the 'choreographed' observation before. I'm not sure I've ever bought that line of thought. If a sword fight were going to be choreographed for lethal realism, it'd be over in seconds. Multi-minute, high tension duels just wouldn't be a thing. I do agree with you...

    You've gotta be smoking some serious shit to think the Ep4 old man fight was better than the Ep1 fight. Come on.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    The only thing that kept me from putting TPM above A New Hope was the success of the Darth Vader villain. Aside from that component (and Alec Guiness' performance) it's a superior experience in almost every way for me.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    The only thing I didn't like about Gunguns was their linguistic pattern. The rest of it was pretty great conceptually. Loved their tech and look.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Yeah, I figured most people wouldn't agree there. While I do find Jar Jar annoying, he doesn't totally detract from the overwhelming sense of adventure TPM created. I loved the Pod Racing stuff, and all the other things that added to the whimsical fantasy-like vibes Lucas was going for. That...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    That's gotta be it. If I were to venture a guess, id say Boba Fett had fewer than 30 words of dialogue and 3 minutes of screen time across the entire original trilogy. He never did anything unexpected or particularly noteworthy. He had shit aim and died a bumbling death.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Can someone please explain to me why anyone gives a shit about the bounty hunters in Star Wars? I've never understood it at all. I think a bounty hunter Star Wars spinoff would flop (comparatively) except with the grognard faction who have inexplicable boners for Boba Fett - a character with...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    That assessment is pretty much right on for me. I thought TFA really hit the nail on the head as far as Star Wars theme and feel. Sure, maybe that's partly due to the rehashing of the plot of ANH. This movie just didn't feel like a Star Wars movie at all to me... until the last 10-20 minutes...

    So far this looks like a decent sci-fi/space-battle movie. I'll wait for reviews from you bros on whether or not it's a good Star Wars movie. Only then will I go see it in theatres.

    Yes, I'm sure Japanese gamers and fans of Japanese games in general will be very happy with 2017's lineup. I haven't been a fan of them since I was a much younger man.

    Booker's is average at best, even at a mid level price-point. At $100 a bottle there are many products that are gonna blow it out of the water.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    All the good stuff on that list is 2018+... unless you have a hard-on for Horizon: Zero Dawn. Personally, after the masterpiece that was Witcher 3, I'm not sure I care to play another open world RPG unless it really delivers. 2017 is looking pretty bleak.
