    JJ though...meh. I can see that. Star Trek 2009 and Into Darkness were a love or hate it thing.
    Yeah, there were just too many plotholes in the JJ Star Trek films for my liking.

    Also, you have a rad avatar.

    That's okay. We all make mistakes sometimes. I liked the Daredevil movie when it first came out *ducks*.

Watching RotJ alone is amazing but watching RotS/RotJ as companion movies makes them just feed off each other.

    -Young Jedi fights Sith apprentice in front of Sidious while space battle rages outside.
    -Jedi repays an earlier defeat to said apprentice by cutting off the Site's hand, something both Skywalkers suffered in kind.
    -After dis"arming" the opponent, Sidious tries to get the Jedi to murder the Sith
    -But, and this is where history repeating itself STOP the cycle from fully repeating. Anakin acts against his better judgement and beheads Tyrannus at the request of Sidious. But when Sidious asks Luke to kill Vader, Luke notices Vaders severed hand has circuits and wiring coming out of it. He then looks at his own mechanical hand and fully realizes the actions he's taking are leading him down the path to the dark side. He stands up, pitches his weapon to the side and defies Sidious stating

    "I'll never turn to the dark side. You've failed, your highness. I am a Jedi, like my father before me."

    The entire throne room sequence is what imo makes RotJ the greatest no matter anyone's hate for the Ewoks. And RotS just strengthens that scene more
    They should've just made one prequel movie. Attach all the necessary beats from the Phantom Menace and Clone Wars to the very beginning of RotS. That would've been better IMHO.

    -Thanks.

    -I liked Daredevil and still like RotS.

    -No offense but that feels too much like ASM2. Too much to cover in the span of 1 movie. Plus we can't go from 4-6, then 1 movie which is supposed to be 1-3.

    Plus 1+2 were bad for different reasons. 1 had no focus. 2 was submarined by Hayden's terrible acting. I didn't mind the large scale political plot and schemes of Sidious. It was whiny Ani that made me want to gouge my eyes out

    Ah, yeah. I didn't consider that. Good point!

    This person's enthusiasm is freakin' infectious! Now I'm keen for half these books too. Secret Wars is gonna lead to my bankruptcy for sure.

    I'm still apprehensive about the X-Universe post SW, but interested in other stuff. ANAD Avengers seems oddly....young

    I'm cautiously optimistic. Time will tell I guess.

    My true journey has begun.

    I have put in orders for MMW Claremont X-men 1, New Mutants vol 1 Back to school, and next week or so I shall obtain New Mutants classic vol 1 and maybe 2.

    The Claremont Crusade has begun.

    I actually really like Episode 2 but it definitely would have been better with a better actor for Ani.
