>Daily reminder podracing sucks so badly everyone wants to see it back.>Daily reminder the podrace in episode 1 was a 'distraction' that took away from the movie, and faglords who 'understand the heart of Star Wars' will make something better that is more inline with the OT that they just know will blow podracing out of the water>Daily reminder that it will suck, will fail, and literally no one will enjoy it, despite having been made by an enlightened one who 'knew better'>Daily reminder people who 'understand the heart of Star Wars' will keep making shit that flops and no one likes, and they'll keep being sure they're right even as nothing they make sells
I want a podracing movie that has fuck all to do with rebels, empire or anything, doesn't have any conflict outside the racers, and does not show us any Jedi or Sith. The sole exception I am willing to make is to have a faggot Force sensitive early on lose and die near the start of the movie like a fag, losing out because Force sensitivity doesn't mean shit against a pro, just to rub in how badly I do not want to see a Jedi again and to purposefully rub sand in the wound for people that want more Jedi/Sith.
>>216964706You see, the thing is tha Lucas was able to see beyond his cinematic navel and said: "you know what, this scene will make the sickest SW arcade, ever">inb4 the trilogy onrails shooter
>>216965202shoudl have given Gosling a podracing movie instead of a starfighter
