Whats the etiquette on when movie details are allowed to be posted in here without spoilers?

Afterall, this appears to be a haven for the "**** those guys, I'm waiting for the rental" crowd so it would seem that details should remain spoilered or put in the other thread.

It's getting trashed on Rotten Tomatoes, but after TLJ, I could give a shit about what "critics" say.

I'll definitely see it but expectations are lowered for me. Hoping I'll enjoy it

Disney didn't pay reviewers their normal bribe/fee for decent reviews

I plan on seeing it. When the rush dies down of course, so probably after the 2nd week or so it's been out.
I didnt grow up a Star Wars kid but i am a fan of sci-fi and popcorn movies. And all of the hate generated by long time franchise fans has only peaked my interest more. Matter of fact, over the last two weeks ive found myself submerging into the lore and films. Something i never thought i'd do. I started watching the Mandalorian just a few days ago and recently revisited some of the original films. Though i am certainly not invested enough yet to sit through an animated series or watch all of the spin offs and side stories.

I've said it before but for me, the best trilogy is Rogue One, A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. If it weren't for Episode IV and V, Rogue One would be my favorite by a wide margin. Solo: A Star Wars Story is fun but not required viewing. The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels are both excellent, especially from Seasons 2 and on (Season 1 of both series really take some patience before they take off but once they do, it's a great ride). The Clone Wars series puts Anakin in a different light and his adventures with Obi Wan, the Mandalorians, etc. are stuff of legend. |

For those who 'experienced it in real-time' the swashbuckling saga started smack dab in the middle, but we were too gobsmacked by the revolutionary storytelling to worry too much about how we got there. Then 40 years later we get a backstory that's not only plausible but moving.

Rogue One and Solo were both awesome. Both better than Force Awakens and exponentially better than Last Jedi.
IMO Solo captured the fun, swashbuckling feel of the original more than any of the other movies. Sucks that it paid the price at the box office for the steaming turd that was Last Jedi, sort of like the kid who gets sent to the principal's office for disrupting class by turning around after the true offender kicked the back of his seat for 10 minutes. |

Rogue One captures the Rebellion unlike any other film, while showing Imperial machinations at their height. I don't want to spoil anything for our friend Detoxing but IMO, it's a Must-See Star Wars film. Quote:
I was so blown away by Rogue One that I saw it more than a few times in IMAX, which was an incredible experience. |

Solo and Rogue One were both great.
HOnestly, i think alot of fans are just kinda tired of the Skywalker saga.
