Re: Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
That's probably the only thing not stopping him from making that review. Jammer reviewed the 2nd Matrix movie and gave it 3.5 stars. He isn't afraid of the opinions of some trolls on the internet

Re: MAND S2: Chapter 16: The Rescue
I’m almost certain Baby Yoda will return in Season 3, because it’s either that or having the implication that Kylo Ren killed him before TFA.

Re: Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back
I must say, this film is damn perfect. I didn't grow up on Star Wars, but by god I love this movie so so much, especially the god. damn. score.

This comments section functions as a really interesting time capsule, with people getting more passionate as time gets on.

Re: Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
Frankly, I don't know why I'm so surprised that this review is taking so long. There's a lot to unpack, and the movie itself is kind of a mixed bag

Re: Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
This movie sucked. Hands down the worst sequal and just an embarrassment for Disney. It was convenient, the characters got no room to breath, they faked a death, one of the cardinal sins of movies, no less than 5 times, and the new characters, with the exception of Babu Frick who was funny, sucked. My stance on this movie has changed greatly over these last few months, but I think this is the stance I'm sticking with

Re: PIC S1: Broken Pieces
I was starting to get worried about STP, but now I feel pretty good about it, after three 3 1/2 star episodes, it looks like Picard may be turning things around. I think that part of it is that he's finally starting to sound like Picard, instead of just Patrick Stewart, and that makes a big difference.

Did that come out as sarcastic? If so, sorry. I DO agree with you

Re: PIC S1: Maps and Legends
Why did Starfleet ban all synthetics after the Utopia Planitia incident? That's like deporting all Muslims after 9/11.

Re: TOS S2: By Any Other Name
Honestly, when I saw the cube-crushing scene, I was sure that the guy would die and girl would live. It honestly might be the first time in all of Trek that the unimportant girl character dies.

Re: Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
Honestly, I think that Rey being a Palpatine was predictable, and yet somehow still out of nowhere. I was surprised to realize when I saw it for the first time that I was not at all surprised by the twist, but it kind of ruins the message that TLJ was trying to have, that you have to be related to someone powerful to be powerful. And Rey worrying that she'd turn to the dark side, they don't do anything with that. Instead of accepting that perhaps the Jedi weren't perfect and a combination of the light and dark side could be attained she just forgets her entire internal struggle, the dark side is absolutely gone in her, and she becomes the perfect Jedi, apparently (Despite her rather out of the blue make out scene with Ben) she just becomes the embodiment of all the Jedi and wins that way. I honestly think that it could have been so much cooler if she had done it entirely on her own, with maybe a little help from Ren. In the struggle, Ben is injured, and Rey, with help from both sides, kills Palpatine. Ben then dies in her arms, etc. etc. On Tatooine, she responds to the person with "Just Rey" and walks away, igniting her new and shiny purple lightsaber. Boom, movie ends, best ending since Return.

Re: Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
JPaul, I don't recall Luke and Vader battling stormtroopers together in ESB, or the rebellion sending a number of old Republic ships to destroy AT-ATs at the end of the movie. And, funnily enough, I don't seem to have any memory of the Emperor's own ship getting obliterated by a ship ramming into it at lightspeed at point blank range. Not saying that similarities don't exist, but it TLJ is almost certainly the most original and unique and, in my opinion, the best of the sequal trilogy.

Re: Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith
Just commenting because these comments are dead, RotS was easily the best prequel, but still suffered from the same awkward dialogue and unbelievable love story as the others. However, Ian McDiarmad and Ewan Mcgregor saved it, IMO

Re: Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
I think this movie was alright, maybe too much fan service and not enough plot, but fortunately, the Mandalorian was good enough to counteract that. Speacking of which, hey, Jammer, could you review the Mandalorian? It is Star Wars, after all.

Re: TOS S2: Metamorphosis
Everyone is losing their crap about how the Companion took over the ambassador's body "against her will" I think that if you think that, you most certainly didn't watch the episode. They CLEARLY state that they are both in control. And yet, no one is acknowledging that she was vital to stopping a fricking war, and now they don't have an ambassador. That's the real problem of the episode. And yet they just brush it off and conveniently forget it, with no lasting consequences.

Re: DS9 S1: If Wishes Were Horses
Wait for "He Who is Without Sin" probably the worst "sexy" episode in Trek

Re: TOS S1: The Alternative Factor
This episode was utterly awful. Even the mediocre episodes usually make you feel something when it ends, but this one dragged so much that the only thing I felt at the end was relief. Worse than Threshold. Zero stars

Re: VOY S2: The Thaw
This one totally couldn't wound up as a zero or half-star episode. I can't tell how it didn't, but frankly, it's a miracle.
