Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (J.J. Abrams, December 20, 2019) Movie • Page 61

Thats what everybody was saying about The Last Jedi

...and they were right

 

Endings are always tough. I've loved both movies so far in the trilogy, so as long as this is good and a fun time I'll be happy.

 

Endings in a movie alone are tough. Let alone a trilogy. Let alone the culmination of a 40 year old saga. Let alone in a franchise where the demographic of fans are so diverse, rabid, and impossible to please.

 

This is probably going to be the last movie to feature the classic opening crawl, feel like that should be special to this saga.

 

I bet the crawl comes back in future movies if they're also serialized instead of one-offs.

 

Man hadnt even thought about that possibility. Thats kind of sad to think about.

My hope is that going forward in the franchise, they refer to The Phantom Menace - Episode 9 as the Skywalker Saga. And it has its own style. The crawl. John Williams music. Rebellion vs. The Empire. Then Rian Johnson and Benioff and Weiss will have different Saga names. The Broom Kid Saga / The Old Republic Saga lets say. Each kind of has their own unique style. The Old Republic movies start off with narrations. Broom Kid Saga does something else stylisticly to stand on its own. Each have their own unique composer and feel.

 

I cant wait to buy the 15 disc skywalker saga box set

 

And throw 3 of the discs away immediately

 

Speaking of composers anybody have any preference going forward? I definitely want Desplat or Kevin Kiner for any project. Id like to see what Zimmer could bring to the franchise too. Shore or Djawadi would definitely be appropriate for Benioff and Weiss' trilogy considering GOT and LOTR. On top of those names I really loved what Nicholas Hooper did for the Potter franchise with Order of the Phoenix and Half Blood Prince and think his lighter tone might be good if Rian's trilogy is also a more playful and fun tone.

 

need that danny elfman score

 

I remember how sad I was when I thought Revenge of the Sith was the end, I want Star Wars forever tbh

 

This is a Disney money making machine now. No way that iconic crawl won’t be used in the future.

 

Cliff Martinez.

Not "Star Wars"-y, but he rules, & post-IX, I want them to really expand what "Star Wars" can mean.

 

The crawl isnt what makes the money lol

 

I only show up for the crawl. I leave immediately after.

 

Yeah Disney just might want to wait until after Captain Marvel is out to reveal the title. Idk at this point.

&& this is amazing wow

 

I’m not too familiar with Martinez but Game Nights soundtrack was incredible.

Agreed with the last sentence whole heartedly and great way to put it considering people so many complain about "not feeling like Star Wars." I dont want what it means to be "Star Wars" to be put in a box and try to just recreate John Williams style (or anything from the OG trilogy). The only constants I want in Star Wars are:
1) heavy practical effects and making sure the universe feels real and lived in.
2) Push the boundries. Keep trying new things. Weird things. Bring in new creative visions.

Thats all. Anything else (Genre. Score. Cinematography) can and should change. Which really is my number two anyways. Id be down for a Star Wars horror movie. romantic comedy/ documentary on Therm Scissorpunch. Give it to me

 

Duel of the Fates would actually be a badass and apt name for this film

 

Damn.. You're not wrong. I just don't think they'd use that for obvious reasons. Unfortunately.

 

yesyesyesyesyes

 

Give me a contemplative, conversation heavy slow burn western style Star Wars one off movie with Nick Cave and Warren Ellis doing the score.

Hell, Nick Cave write the movie, too.

 

In terms of titles I don't want it to be "____ of the ____". 3 movies in the series already have that format and every suggestion in that style had been really boring imo

Also don't want "Force" to be in the title

 

Breaking news!

Star Wars Episode IX: Forcing of the Force

 

Star Wars Episode IX: Don’t Force It

 

The only way to 100% guarantee we get another installment of the Skywalker saga is to call episode 9 Star Wars: The Final Chapter.
