What to expect before seeing Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi


I believe it will be 10/10 the middle and then 5/10 at the beginning and end.


In fact, I’m going to walk out when the cheesy ending cliffhanger happens. PSH. I’m not falling for that Hollywood Movie Magic.

This would be 3 for 3 in a row for female protagonist.

It will be a great soundtrack, but bad story line and great cast. So the plot thickens.

Then my next round of guess is who dies? I believe Kylo Ren will die to the hand of the next sith, he already is vulnerable with his scar.

Then I believe Oscar ISsac Will become the leader of the rebellion and get suspicious of Luke Skywalker’s training, and then deface his ego and that will be when Ren will be torn between the rebellion and the Empire and lead a story on her own path.

But of course, it will be less complicated so that’s why I don’t give the story hope. I am seeing this because it got a 93% (by critics ) on rotten tomatoes and I like the soundtracks, even if it’s not John Williams, and will make an exception for the Harry Potter blockbusters too.


For some reason I want to say this will be my last non-indie movie in theaters because as a directory/ photographer. I’m not voting with my dollars. Thanks for reading and share if you agree that the Star Wars movies start slow and have poor plot lines because there never plans to be an end!

Three Billboards Over Ebbing Missouri l 9.5

Review:
9.25-10

This was a lot better than expected. Again a female protagonist. I couldn't say this was anything I could make on my own and say as much as the cast was involved it had the same actor "fruit loops" as lady bird.


I will have to say one thing that I am not good at story telling and would be dragged along w/ any outcome. I can say that the because the guy from Idaho knew Willoughby I could agree that it was him.

Be cause there never was a suspect it might be.



The end of a movie is funny especially in a theater because the audience is sitting there with a lot of questions. I remember seeing the circle and afterwards their was a live q and a with the director. "Why did you change the story?" "What was it like choosing location?" "Was the messages supposed to be like that?" Blah. And  This would have torn the director apart. It's like going to an art exhibit and not caring who the artist is. While not every movie experience can be as great as a screening, it definitely annoyed me walking out without knowing the ending.

Also, whoever wrote the story really had it out for .com america. Like let's kill sheriff, put up nonymous messages,  burn down all the settings, destroy every love with cancer or divorce and get everyone drunk and angry. Whereas online you can't  get heard, you don't need to be held accountable, and you can pretend their is no one policing your online activity, and everyone moves on to the next trending topic.

Best scene was the office with the camera behind the boots of the chief. The worst was beer can thrown at the car it was even more unrealistic. Than the deer behind the billboard.

The Final Preview No Spoilers of Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri

THREE Bilboards..
I think this week have a good cast and better story. From what I have known it's very artsy, and there will be several dialogues happening. From the amazon and online browsing I saw a screenplay available so it lets me know that I should pay a lot of attention.to the setting. Since the movie is 2 hours I don't see it being that great all the way and hope that the best scenes are not last.

I Do like the idea of larger than life symbolism and lastly, this again is contingent.dollars a main female protagonist. Great some people just walked into the theater I should probably get a refund now. Luckily I have a earplugs that block background noise.

Lady Bird 8/10

Somewhere between a 7.25- and 8.75

Yes, it was a little new age. The movie was full and I guess it was a romantic comedy. It was like watching silver linings playbook because it felt theatrical while there was a lot of emotional backdrop.

Ladybird Preview

Ladybird

This is on my top 10 because it just seemed interesting. I am seeing this and the Billboards over misosurri. Yes extremely low profile movies and both run around 2 hours back to back. At this point I've rated a good deal of movies and usually come away liking 1-2 of a three category feature. A movie is seen as trivial to a lot of people and not a shared experience and I wonder how I view movies since it's usually an adaption of a book. It's kind of like a museum experience reading the type description and then experiencing it. So category one is the soundtrack, category 2 is cast, and category 3 is director or storytelling. If there would be a ANOTHER IT would be costume design.

Ladybird seems like a true story so I think it will simply just have a good  soundtrack and cast. What i think will happen is that ladybird actress will be a disruptor since that's what people want to see and since it's about religion I think that there will be a strong resolution at the end since most religion stories do.
