How do you run out of/overdose on the force? It’s not a matter of age or anything about the physical body since, as Yoda makes abundantly clear, “Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter”. The force is essential an ever-present primordial “soul energy” that represents life, fate, and peace. It’s also not a limited resource since every piece of training offered to the Jedi is about controlling and manipulating it, not expelling it and the only expulsion of power we see is force lightning. Like, what actually is Luke and Leía’s cause of death?

Luke's aunt and uncle died there (but it's not technically the planet's fault so I won't count it. )- I get it. Tatooine means a lot and has a lot of sentimental value and is VERY ICONIC.

@@justafan9399 If I’m not mistaken, that’s a symptom of Disney erasing shitloads of old canon material. When Disney said they’d make the new trilogy, they also basically said, “The original six films and the Clone Wars are all that’s canon now.” (They even kind of ignore the Clone Wars at times, too.) That threw _everything_ about the extensive light sabre lore, extended villains they could’ve easily used, and any neat extended force abilities (that I think they still managed to reference a time or two) out the window. Entire shelves of books that were considered various degrees of canon and alternate universe that were given Lucas’s seal of approval had their contributions to Star Wars’ universe thrown in the trash without a second thought. It’s the biggest retcon I think I’ve ever heard of. It isn’t even a Thanos Snap because there isn’t even half the stuff left over. It feels closer to a lobotomy. This is part of why this trilogy is so clearly a cash grab. Disney just wanted to make Star Wars big again with its insane money earning power by slapping on new characters unhindered by the extended lore and a shiny coat of paint smeared with just the right amount of grime. It’s even worse because they totally had the power to do that. I can’t blame them for wanting a clean slate to build from. What I _do_ fault them for, however, is not learning from the incredibly obvious structure most of the extended lore used that could’ve been adapted for these films to make their new story fit well within the structure behind all the canon extensions. Even the Clone Wars did that a bit, and it’s the _Clone Wars cartoon_ like c’mon. This crap is ludicrous. The lack of preplanning makes it twice as bad already because that’s a recipe for disaster coming from two companies who are known for their storytelling, but this? It’s just tragic.

It’s such a shame that John Williams had put together an amazing score, but JJ just told him to play the force theme 50 times

I think when Rey was communicating with all the Jedi the Rey’s theme should have played WITH the force theme. This would have made a bigger effect by showing how Jedi are all collaborating with Rey now to help her defeat the emperor.

The Binary Sunset was always "impactful". It is full of longing and even regret for past life choices. I first heard it in 1977, when I was 20 years old. This one scene was the one I remembered most intensely after that first June midnight viewing, and which retained its meaning after the thirtieth viewing in November. To me, it will always be "My Mother Is Dying".

Sadly, Stormtroopers were never treated as a joke in the OT. The expanded universe kinda did it a little, but it was just memes and now writers view them as jokes to use instead of badasses. Literally every moment in the first two films of stormtroopers appearing to have awful aim was when they were under orders to let people escape or to capture them alive. Hell, on Bespin one nails the wall an inch or so away from Chewbacca's face. Outside of those "hero" moments, they wipe the floor with the enemy. They were winning Endor until Chewbacca stole the AT-ST and their walker support got wiped out.

24:35 All of the problems you pointed out, and I think this is my biggest issue. No musical scores from the prequel trilogy was an absolute travesty. I'll never understand how they could call this movie the "wrap up of the Skywalker saga" and not include any music from that trilogy. Even worse is that they straight up fucking blue balled us with the Duel of the Fates in the "Duel" trailer yet never used it in the final movie.

"I actually didn't hate this film at first" is about how I felt about it, too. Then I started talking to my roommate about it and analyzing it.

Also, Star Wars, (before Disney fucked it up) has always pretty much been a passion project, as stated by George in some interviews. My point is Sequels= Disney cash grab shit, Prequels=A wholehearted project that just has a lot of cheesy acting and bad writing (Except for just about every scene with Ewan as Obi Wan). Also the prequels are in a whole different league when compared to the sequels because of three things, and three things alone: No.1: Revenge of the sith. No.2: Ewan's performance as Obi Wan.

Across the stars is still so moving to me and I never forget the Romeo Juliet love story that was actually the cause for the whole ware in the original trilogy

I think a big part in why the scores of both the prequel trilogy and original trilogy were so good was the fact that Lucas constantly talked to William's and was involved with their creations. He would literally go to Williams and say "I have this scene, I want the music to impart this emotion/ I want it to sound like this" (hell, William's wanted to cut the chanting in duel of the fates, but Lucas insisted he kept it in)

Man. I was feeling sorry Williams as the downtrodden employee having unreasonable demands made, but they way you brought it around at the end... Yeah, this is the music he's most famous for, he's put as much of himself in this series as Mark Hamil or Carrie Fisher, he doesn't own it but it's his baby. They kind of ruined his life's work 🥺

The only explanation I can come up with for ”lifting an x wing” theme, is that Yoda’s theme came to represent not only Yoda, but jedi masters and jedi training in general? He’s probably the most iconic jedi teacher, so he represents that as well. Many themes change meaning or have two meanings like you said (obi and force, for example). So Luke shows Rey the power of the force by lifting the ship because that’s what Yoda did for him and the theme plays to represent jedi training,, but idk since Rey didn’t get any training to speak of. Perhaps it’s Luke toying with the idea of training her as he remembers his own training with Yoda, hence Yoda’s theme.

@@Stad122 I'm sure they don't have the attention span for a critique that's longer than the film. ;)

The Kenobi show actually did something really neat. In the first episode, the "force theme" is used as Obi-Wans theme, but it's slowed down and quite because Obi-Wan is in a dark place.

That visceral rage reaction to nonsensical musical decisions fills the void this movie left in my soul

It's a shame he overacts so much, the content is interesting but that fake over-the-top intensity is annoying AF, and cheapens the whole thing. It's like he doesn't believe what he wrote is strong enough, so he has to read it like everything's THE WORST DAMN THING OH MY GOD WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT

Honestly with that three hours of music, I’d like to see what this film actually was supposed to be after its original cut. It doesn’t take a lot of detective work to discern that they hacked the living shit out of this movie between its first cut and its theatrical cut.

@@nachoolo I hate how people have adopted that as what TLJ was trying to say, when it wasn't at all. The movie was about despite how flawed the past may be, it still has value. That lesson is personified in Luke, who believes he has no place in the galaxy after his mistake, but then learns that he can still give it something. That sometimes legends, no matter how glorified, can inspire the people who need it most. Too bad Disney took the helm and tried to overcorrect due to fan backlash. I read Trevorrow's script, and while it's a bit messy (as to be expected from an early draft), it's LEAGUES better than what we got, and actually makes this trilogy feel cohesive. It recontextualizes the repetitious nature of TFA as a cycle, one that must be broken in order to truly bring peace. It has a lot more finality and weight behind it, and it's a god damned tragedy that it was never made.

You talking about the force theme and Rey theme made me soooo happy. I 100% agree about switching them for the final fight.

15:31 did you intend to sound like Yoda when you "Hmmmm"'ed about the Yoda theme? Because if so...... nice.

Hearing that last comment about how Disney could ABSOLUTELY release the film with Williams’s intended score makes my blood boil, because it’s true. Especially after the huge amount of hype on the internet surrounding the Justice League Snyder Cut.
