Personally I am going spoiler blackout the moment the first teaser hits. That when the marketing ramps up anyways.I've been doing some reflecting/thinking, and I've realized that not caring about spoilers is probably the best way to go, since I've been spoiled so much and burned in the past. Hopefully this thread still generally stays spoiler free on big things, but I've embraced my destiny.
I apologize for getting upset before, I've been spoiled in person and online on all the previous episodes on major things so it's touchy for me. But maybe there's just no escaping it.
You were right about me. Tell the other posters, you were right..
It's just costumes, they way I see it is that stuff will just be in the trailers anyway and we'll see it before the movie comes out. It's the threads that have major story spoilers in that you want to avoid.I will not go into that spoiler thread

Yeah I got spoiled for TLJ via YT thumbnails for a video that was unrelatedYou know what's the worst when trying to avoid spoilers? Google Cards. They keep fucking putting shitty link bait articles in my feed on my Pixel because I went to this thread. I think I need to use a non google browser and incognito that shit to be sure.
We have actual pictures of characters in costume! Come in...the waters fine.I will not go into that spoiler thread

Mama, forgive me for I have sinned.I will not look at those concept art pieces, I'm a clean boy. Mama didn't raise no soily spoily boi.
The weirdest thing is when the MCU comparisons start.This continues to be the only cringe-free place to discuss anything Star Wars related.
YOU ARE NO SON OF MINE
What did you see??
Mama is very disappointed in you. Once you start down the spoiler path, forever will it dominate your destiny.
Alas, you're no Vader.I actually didn't see the story spoilers, I've not turned to the darkside, but I did see the concept art since I'll see that stuff in the trailer. I didn't want to but JJ made me with his unseemly behavior.

Like guys c'mon how much else validation do you need for that franchise
And with the story we have now, why again is Ben's soul Rey Random's problem? Why is it Rey Random's job to save a family of strangers, literally none of whom she has history of any kind with, by saving the last of their line (who is responsible for destroying them in the first place)? Why doesn't she have her own story that's about her? Why doesn't she have a motive about what she wants because it affects her life and/or her loved ones who she does have history with and/or genuine and mutual affection for? Why should Rey care about this family of strangers more than any other family of strangers in the entire galaxy who's lives are being destroyed thanks to Kylo Ren, the stranger monster who she's supposed to live and die to save?
Han matters to the Skywalker family Saga because he was best friends with one Skywalker, loved and married another, and fathered a third. Obi matters to the Skywalker family saga because he literally raised one Skywalker that he loved as a brother, and protected and trained his son, another Skywalker. Padme matters to the Skywalker Saga because she loved one and birthed two.
None of the above applies to Rey. With her story now, after TLJ, she has zero, zilch to do with this family. She's known Leia a couple days. She seems to like her. She met Luke, lied to him, he didn't like her, and she deserted him and ran to the people desperate to find and murder him. No deep connection there. And Kylo? She's known him a few days, and during those days he is directly responsible for her being tortured twice, stalked, abducted, assaulted, and emotionally battered and demeaned. We are going into the third movie of the third trilogy in the Skywalker Saga and our mystery protagonist has zero do with this family besides she dresses like them and has other symbolic parallels with them. She also keeps inheriting their stuff (including their sidekicks) even though she has literally zero claim to any of it. This girl desperately needs a story, such that it should be impossible for any antagonist (read: not "half of the protagonist") to tell her that she has no place in the story with any semblance of truth. The protagonist is the person the story is supposed to be about for crying out loud! How has LF missed that memo? The protagonist can't have no place in her own freaking story.
"God, there's too much Star Wars going on. It's causing the movies to dip in quality. Face it, the MCU is the new Star Wars now."It's hilarious to me how much leeway that franchise gets in comparison to Star Wars. Nostalgia and wish-fulfillment is a bitch, I suppose.
The idea that Star Wars has to not come out to be "special" is something that I just can't agree with. Star Wars is special because it's Star Wars, not because I have to wait 3 years between new episodes and then 10 years before the next trilogy."God, there's too much Star Wars going on. It's causing the movies to dip in quality. Face it, the MCU is the new Star Wars now."
"But doesn't the same thing happen to the MCU with lull movies like Ant-Man and Doctor Strange, with sometimes 3 movies happening the same year?"
I don't even have a huge beef with Marvel movies at all, but this sort of weird posturing drives me nuts.
From TFN. It's interesting reading some of the views there which seem so at odds with the things a lot of people here seemed to appreciate about TLJ, which was that Rey is not a Skywalker or tied to their legacy and thus freed up the saga to offer something more, something new. TFN folks are having none of and insist that Rey is a shallow character and needs to be "saved" for her role in the saga to have any meaning.
Y'know what?Do you guys think the TLJ shitposts should be moderated more strictly?
Because SW threads on this forum have been shit for a long while now.
There's a few posters that always bring it up just to troll, shit like that should be moderated. It's tiring for there to be a Star Wars thread just to see the same avatars dropping in to say the same shit they've said for 15 months just to shit up the place.Do you guys think the TLJ shitposts should be moderated more strictly?
