Re: Movies! The Last Jedi: Ragnarok
Maybe it was knowing Carrie Fisher passed but that was the most emotional Star Wars movie yet. The John Williams score packed a punch. I see why Disney gave Johnson the keys to a new trilogy. Exceptional storytelling.
As we were leaving the theater the people awaiting the 10pm show were mostly plugging their ears so as not to hear spoilers (yeah, Simpsons did it). My nephew blurted out, "I can't believe Snoke-" and I cut him off. 'Save it for the car. We don't want to ruin it for these folks.' I got a high-five from a guy in Jedi robes.

Re: Movies! The Last Jedi: Ragnarok
Oh, and if you're thinking the Disney-Fox deal is great because now we'll finally get the original Star Wars trilogy on Blu-Ray, guess again. That version no longer exists in film quality and it is very likely that in his deal with Disney, Lucas got it in writing that even if they acquired the rights and wanted to restore the old film they would never release the unaltered originals. It's CGI Jabba, the embarrassing song sequence on Tatooine and the baddest villain ever created yelping "Noooooo!" like a beaten cur now.

Re: Movies! The Last Jedi: Ragnarok
Loved Star Wars. In many ways it's my favorite. In some ways it's not. I was very surprised by a lot of things last night.**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.

There actually is an incredibly boring, overlong Wells film that all critics drool over: The Magnificent Ambersons. It's torture at 3 hours and the original uncut version was well over 4. The studio raped it (of course) and I'm sure Wells' initial vision was far superior, but we only have what we have, and what we have is atrocious.Cornell University
