@DarthRen

I ‘ m astonished. I know I came to this fandom late compared to most of you. And I’ve just been over to the Fan Fatigue thread to read about the antis and I just can’t fathom this sort of behaviour. So Adam plays a major character and Rian has most likely created a remarkable film. I do not see why folks have to resort this is sort behaviour, but that’s just me. The film will be the film - we will know in 10 days. Say there is a kiss will this sort of discourteousness stop or will it enflame the antis?

EDit sorry for going off at tangent on wrong thread

@MrsWindu

I don't understand it either. Honestly, it's disgusting Sad

Cool pic of Serkis and the PGs. Don't think he gets enough credit for how great he is as Snoke Very Happy

Agree with both of you.

I'd like to add as well: the moment John Campea left them they lost every connection with the reality for good.

I like them, especially "Kylo"Ken Napzok Very Happy

but it's true that they're clueless about TLJ. It's like they see all the signs but can't really figure them out Very Happy

I'm looking forward to their TLJ review, I want to see their stunned faces!

@DarthRen

Oh, tumblrinas and the so-called F's fans. Jumping

Fear is the path to the dark side, Fear leads to anger, Anger leads to hate, Hate leads to suffering, isn't it Jumping

They spend their life to spread hate on a fictional character, while both writers/directors love him dearly and his fans do everything they can to make him become the most marketable new character plus his merchs outsell all the other new characters in the international market. Jumping

@Maria Antonietta

Yeah, I agree. Ugh, could you just imagine if they could ask the Kylo questions they wanted, it would probably be stuff like: is Kylo now fully on the dark side now that he's killed Han in cold blood? Will he become Vader 2.0/ a cyborg? Will he kill his mom? Will he win the duel against Rey this movie? Is he mad/jealous that his cousin Rey Skywalker is back? Lol.

@Kessel

To be fair, most of the collider guys no longer believe that Rey is Luke's daughter. But yeah, they don't like Kylo very much because he killed their beloved Han Solo Rolling Eyes

I think deep down they know that a redemption arc is coming, even if they're not too happy about it right now. I'm curious if they will change their mind after TLJ. Especially if Reylo is happening, because they haven't really acknowledged that possibility so far.

@Birdwoman

I can't explain how much I completely agree with your assessment of the level of analysis at MSW; they are very similar to Collider in that way. At least IRL fanboy friends have redeeming qualities in person or they wouldn't be your friend.
Recently, every time I've tried to give either of those outlets a try, I wind up so frustrated by the lack of critical thinking skills displayed.
Or are those the term papers I'm grading?
Both?
I think it's both.

I'm glad Adam got away from Collider. Good luck to the other cast members.

KrazyForKylo wrote:I love Adam Driver to bits and I can see he doesn’t particularly enjoy doing the big TV interviews, but he has done plenty of them before now. He hosted SNL for goodness sake! He has also done press junkets for his other movies, particularly Paterson and a few months ago for Logan Lucky. Adam was hilarious with Channing Tatum and seemed pretty relaxed throughout those press interviews. He did the kind of lightning round Q&As the other Star Wars cast did on Facebook with Channing and was quick and witty with his answers too. If Adam isn’t doing certain press and interviews for The Last Jedi there must be reasons from on high (Disney/Lf are managing the heck out of this!) He did them for TFA and managed pretty well with it all back then. I’m not saying he doesn’t get nervous or doesn’t feel uncomfortable, because he obviously does, but he does them when he has to and he’s even seemed to be enjoying some of them in the past.

@Kessel

No, more like: As an actor, are you personally ashamed for killing such a wonderful, warm galactic hero as Han Solo in cold blood, when you're nothing but a little Vader wannabe?

@DarthRen

I may be in minority but I love it when they do this, attack Rian, etc because it only strengthens everyone's dislike of them and they don't endear themselves to LF at all. Quite the contrary. keep going. Rian's career is through the roof, so he can sit back and engage in civilized responding to this crap posted by losers with too much times on their hands.

by Xylo Ren Sun 03 Dec 2017, 10:21 am

Once again, they're not getting the movie they want so this is how they react. They have no control over how the movie or ANYTHING in Star Wars pans out, so they're going to the one thing they do have control over, the content of their idiot blogs.

They're on the losing side, and soon the three and a half prepubescent pre-teens who post anti Adam stuff will have nothing better to do but go back to their My Little Pony reruns and Aeropostale shopping trips.

by SheLitAFire Sun 03 Dec 2017, 10:31 am

Fuller versions of these interviews.

by Kylo Rey Sun 03 Dec 2017, 10:39 am

Ok, so this was a great interview. Laura and Oscar gave some thoughtful, smart answers:

Lovely quote from Laura on the staying power of Star Wars:

For me the mythology that George Lucas harnessed for all of us about our own self discovery and finding hope within ourselves despite oppression. To find freedom in our own light or hearts. The Dark side isn't a Superhero [movie idea] about the invention of bad guys and good guys. The Dark and the Light are within one's own family, one's own complication, inside themselves, and who's going to win? Will your own empathy win? Or will your resentment and hurt? I mean those are huge themes. You're begging for a movie to give you that.

Oscar praising Rian:

It's such an intricate story. There's so many things going on, and yet he was able to maintain not only the tone of the whole thing, but the individual tone of each storyline. It's very different from each other, the dynamics and the nature of each relationship.

The press will start in half an hour. I hope they will stream it somehow.

I haven't seen a stream but I'm keeping an eye on Twitter hashtags. The cast hasn't come out yet, it seems.
