Dreamwars: A Star Wars fandom chat community

Hi!

This week's topic is the last movie of the Sequel trilogy, Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker.

As usual: do you have any thoughts or feels about this movie? Old, new, recurring...

It's been a while since the movie came out in 2019. If you think about it... do you miss something? Either directly from the movie (a protagonist you love, a side character you wish we got more of), something related to it (going to see a SW movie in the cinema, perhaps?), or something only vaguely related?

Hi!

The theme for this chat corner is "Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens", the first movie of the Sequel trilogy. It was released in December of 2015 (nearly ten years!), and directed by J. J. Abrams.

Any thoughts, feels, or opinions you'd like to share about this movie?

Alternatively, if you'd like a more abstract prompt: what's your strongest SW-related memory from 2015?

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

Our topic this week is the movie "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back".

If you were to choose one scene in this movie to do differently - plot-wise, in the dialog, camera, cutting it altogether - which one would it be?

Or the other way around: what scene would you add?

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week's topic is Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, a film that might be just much a prequel to the Original Trilogy as the Prequels.

I generally see this movie framed as the only good "new" Star Wars movie, so thought I'd give the opposite as a prompt: what do you not like on Rogue One? Or, what memorable critical opinions you've encountered, whether because you agree with them or because you don't?

Fun fact! I just realized that I skipped the Clone Wars movie in the movie chat topic rotation. *facepalm*

So, organizational question: should I use it for the next movie week? Should I keep it for the end of the rotation? Should I just not use it this year?

("I don't care either way" is also a valid answer.)

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week, the topic is Star Wars: The Revenge of the Sith - the last movie in the Prequel Trilogy, the third movie chronologically, the fourth fifth SW movie filmed, and... fourth third movie in the Machete watching order?

(I had such a hard time picking a fun article to link. The one on wired.com from 2012, which calls it "new"? The 2017 one from time.com written just before the first Sequel movie? The Vanity Fair one that suggests a new "Rey Order"? )

Anyway. If you have thoughts (or feels) about this movie, come and share.

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

It's time for a SW movie again, and we're back at the beginning with Episode I: The Phantom Menace.

Fun fact, this is the fourth time we are talking about this movie. (Well. If anyone comments on this post. I'm not completely delusional, I know this comm is pretty quiet.)

I feel like there's something wrong with my math, because in previous years we've hit TPM somewhere in May. I haven't missed a movie, have I??? Maybe one of the "specials" fell on a movie week in previous years and not in this one.

Ah, well. Maybe Disney will finally drop another movie, so it will square up again.

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week's topic is the movie The Last Jedi, the second in part of the Sequel Trilogy.

What are your thoughts? Imagine you're making small talk and this movie comes up. What do you do? Jump right in? Pretend you're not there? Something in between?

Alternatively, a prompt: If you could write a letter to one character in this movie (protagonist, antagonist, side character, some complete rando from the background), what would you send them? Bonus, it's a paper letter and you can include anything in the envelope.
