Forum Overview :: Peter Molyneux's The Movies :: I thought that dialogue was clever (because I am a nerd?)

[quote name="Brody Wilder"]He said Rey's parents traded her for drinking money, as if they were alcoholics. Then I remembered she was from Tattooine or whatever, the desert planet, and I realized he could've just as easily been talking about regular water. I was like shit Ryan, you have got to put that in the movie. But he already did! The Last Jedi was the best Star Wars since Space Balls; better than Space Balls, it was the best Star Wars since the real ones. I even liked how the Vietnamese lady seemed like a response to George Lucas cramming too much shit into the frame in the prequels, since her face was too wide to fit anything else around it. That's probably where Porgs came from, the special effects guys had to invent an alien small enough to stick in the parts of the frame not full of that Vietnamese lady's face. Solo was good but not AS good, and I actually fell asleep during Rogue One. I woke up in time to see Cassian Andor using his gymnastics skills like Ian Malcolm's African-American daughter at the end of The Lost World to climb the gymnastics bars inside the data vault, which was probably super badass and heartrending in context but without it just looked dumb. They hired Quarter to Three's Gary Whitta to write their movie and his best idea was to add an environmental puzzle to the climax. It didn't work in Half-Life and it didn't work here.[/quote]
