I've texted with or spoken to more than a dozen men today, age 43-57, and every last one shed a tear.

I don't know if there's ever been this kind of male-bonding moment due to a Television/Cinematic experience, at least in my lifetime.

Kevin Smith even posted his red, teary eyes on Twitter.

Yeah, she's still in charge. And sure, I get what RJ was trying to do but JJ killed the Golden Goose, although KK should never have allowed that script to go into production.

Michael Arndt, who wrote Toy Story 3 and other acclaimed films, had it right because his script featured Luke, Leia and Han, only to have "Kira" appear in Act 3.

That's what we wanted to see. Not crappy imitations in the forms of Poe, Finn and Rey.

Alas, what could have been...

Beautiful

I just want to say....I would Gina Carano. The whole thing.

LMAO

Oh and whoever did the music during the Dark Troopers scene? ****ing epic.

It's Ludwig Göransson. He's scored both seasons of The Mandalorian and he scored Marvel's Black Panther, in which he created the Wakanda Theme and the Black Panther theme.

I recently did a "Spotlight" interview and one of the questions was "Who are your favorite composers?".

While I listed John Williams and others, I also mentioned that Ludwig is my favorite composer working today because he's breaking new ground with a Synthesizer/Sound Design/Orchestral Hybrid type of scoring that IMO, is absolutely amazing and astonishingly refreshing.

The dude is literally a genius composer.

Posted a couple of pages back on how he came up with the Mando score. Can’t embed right now.

Thanks man. I’m a ****ing fan of his work now.

It certainly set the tone.

He's freaking awesome. I mean, that Wakanda theme, to me, is just ridiculously awesome.

Just thinking about it gives me chills. It's just so perfect, as is his work on The Mandalorian.

When I first started watching the show, I wasn’t too sure about it. I was like “this doesn’t sound like Star Wars”

But it’s slowly grown on me. I like it alot now.

LIKE A BOSS!!!!!!!
