Rouge One was great when I first saw in in theaters. But I find that its flaws become much more apparent on the second viewing, and doesn't hold up as much. I like the characters just fine, it's just a damn shame that they can't really do anything else with them because of well...spoilers. It's just hard for me to get invested in the movie a second time knowing it does not end well for them.

So who is part of the "I will buy Last Jedi on DVD or Blu-ray" club?

Probably when the movie is on sale for $10 at Target or Wal-Mart later in the near future.

With Disney owning Fox, it will be a matter of time when the original versions of Episodes 4-6 get a proper HD release. Disney should let Criterion restore the original movies on Blu-Ray because they would do a perfect job on it.

That's something I've discussed with people several times. I have been surprised that Disney hasn't already released the theatrical versions of the Original Trilogy.
But then recently, somebody reminded me that the original negatives were modified to make the Special Editions. I haven't seen the old SE documentaries since 97, but I THINK the new special effects were added to the original negatives, so Disney can't just slap it on BluRay/digital and release it. They'd have to do some work to re-edit the negatives, remove the SE footage to return them to the theatrical version. Maybe that means they wouldn't have to do some of the audio/visual clean up that people want, but still, it's apparently not a trivial thing, or I'm sure they'd have done it already. I mean, I still think they will, but it could take some time. |

*high fives*
Yeah I am planning to buy it on the first week if possible. Other than the casino scene I enjoyed it. The decisive moment where Ben wi-fi sliced Snoke in half and took over was pretty much the thesis for this film for me. It was a bold statement and made quite an impression.

Oh, that is absolutely my favorite part. The last showdown with Kylo Ren at the end is also pretty great, but that Throne Room scene is definitely the best.
The casino bit is by far the least good part. In fact, I watched it a third time yesterday, and was kind uninterested by the entire Resistance thread of the film. I don't dislike it, but it's SO much less interesting than the Rey and Kylo Ren stuff. I kinda want a fan-edit of the film that's just all the Kylo Ren and Rey parts of the film, adding the resistance stuff in once the First Order starts firing on the transports. |

Actually, all the best scenes of the film didn't really happen till the third act. The kamikaze hyperdrive is easily the best part of the movie. |
