Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

Today is movie time: the topic is the first of the Sequel Trilogy movie, “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”. If you’ve been here last time we’ve talked about it, do you have any new thoughts? If not, what do you think about it?

By the way, the movie premiered in December 2015, which means it’s now over 7 years old. It’s been a while! Have you seen it in the cinema? What was it like?

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week it’s time to talk about “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi”, the last movie of the Original Trilogy. What do you think? Or maybe you’d like to check what we’ve said last year. Anyway, the floor is yours.

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week we’re set to talk about Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, aka Episode V, aka the one with the hand and the carbonite and the OG green gremlin. (So many iconic scenes in this one movie!)

What do you think?

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week we’re back to the olden times with “Star Wars: A New Hope” (which I suspect I don’t need to introduce).

Any new, old, or never-ending thoughts about the movie? There has been some new canon introduced since last year: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Andor. Does it change the way you see the story?

Optional prompt

The topic this week is “Solo: A Star Wars Story”, where young Han Solo becomes Han Solo (among other things).

There has been some Drama (TM) during the movie’s production, it was apparently a box office failure, and it certainly hadn’t inspired the same fannish interest as other SW movies (for better or worse). So, what do you think? Have you seen it? Did you like it?


Unrelated mod note: I have been wondering about a thing… would you appreciate the ability to submit your own posts to the comm, besides the weekly chat corners? My viewpoint on this has been that it would take “material” away from the chat corners and spread the interaction too thin, but I would like to know what you think.

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

This week it’s time for “Star Wars: The Clone Wars“, the animated movie set between second and third episode of the prequels that serves double duty as a pilot for a TV show with the same name.

Children are put in danger, clones die like flies, and we all try to forget that one of the main heroes is actually a mass murderer…

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

This week’s optional topic is “Star Wars: Attack of the Clones”, the second movie of the Prequel trilogy. Romance, mass murder, double-bluffing Sith, and so many clones!

Also, a periodic reminder that if you don’t feel like talking about the prompt, anything else SW-related is welcome here as well, including recs and self-recs.

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

This week we start our walk through the Star Wars movies again, with “Star Wars: The Phantom Menace”, the chronological beginning of the Star Wars saga (well, at least the movie version of it).

What are your thoughts? Speaking of beginnings, do you think we will ever get a movie set before TPM?

(And for the few who have been here for this topic last year, do you remember what you’ve said back then? :D)

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

This week’s prompt is “Star Wars: The Last Jedi”, the second movie in the Sequel trilogy.

Just as with the first Sequel movie, I remind you to use The Dark Side post as necessary, so there’s some space left for people who enjoyed the film. If you did, the floor is yours ;)

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

This week’s prompt, if you want one, is “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, the first movie in the Sequel trilogy. Old characters return, new characters appear, new story begins.

Because I know this is a sore topic for many, I’d like to remind you to use The Dark Side post as necessary, and keep this space positive-to-neutral. If you slide into a rant, just post it there and link it here (“I have thoughts but they’re mean: <link>”).

And of course, it’s an optional topic - if you don’t feel like it, you don’t have to talk about it ;) I’m sure we can find something else :D

This week, the topic is the last movie of the Original Trilogy, “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi”. Any thoughts? Does it make you happy or sad or both? Any favorite part?

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

I have been reliably informed that the time between Christmas and New Year’s Eve doesn’t exist. As such I leave you with this, ahem, present, wish you happy holidays if you celebrate, and I will see you in 2022.

The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978), in the best copy available on YouTube:

(If you are brave enough to actually watch the thing, you have my admiration and please, share your experiences, because I am certainly not.)

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

This week, the topic is “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back”. Second movie of the original trilogy, the one with the ~big reveal~ (and wampa entrails, and Yoda, and Lando, and space slugs).

What are your thoughts?

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

This week’s topic, should you accept it, is “Star Wars: A New Hope”. The very beginning of everything!

Have you seen it? (I think it’s perfectly possible to be a SW fan without seeing the OT, for the record!) Was it your first SW? What made you watch it? How old were you?

…did you like it? Do you like it now, if your first watch was a long time ago?

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

Today is Legends week, and I’m running out of prompts (ironically, given the sheer amount of Legends materials). Still a few left though, so lets do Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure! Has any of you actually seen it?

(Also, if you have any Legends content you know and would like to talk about, please, share. Otherwise I can either start picking things by random - and then most likely nobody will have ever heard of the thing - or retire the category.)

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

 

Optional chat prompt

If you don’t have your own topic to talk about, the optional prompt for this week is the movie “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith”, AKA the most depressing one.

I think that means we’ve covered all of the Prequel Trilogy now, so maybe a secondary prompt (subprompt?) might be the trilogy as a whole, if you have any Thoughts On The Matter.

Optional chat prompt

This week, the topic is Star Wars: The Clone Wars, meaning the 2008 film. I’m aware the Venn diagram of the fandom coverage of this movie and the TV show is a circle, but it is a theatrically released movie within the SW canon and we have A System here, ok. BEAR WITH ME. And ignore the prompt at will, ofc.

Optional chat prompt

This week’s topic is Star Wars: Attack of the Clones. Second movie in the prequel trilogy, little Ani is all grown up and here to give us all a load of second-hand embarrassment! Also, is it just me or does Padmé’s penthouse look like a cross between Art Deco and 90s hotel lobby?
