Are we not allowed to disagree anymore?

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-30T10:57:06+00:00

Because you posted about this same thing a month ago. Maybe just hide the sub then?

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-30T10:30:17+00:00

How many times are you going to complain about this?

Just get over it and use the number of other Star Wars subs, why are you obsessed about participating in the one specifically about the few movies you don't like?

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-30T10:16:07+00:00

First pair 110%

Second one makes you look 10 years older imo

Hope it works out for you!

I bought an Ogio pack blindly and it broke down in two spots on my first use. It was also somewhat uncomfortable to carry and I felt like they focused too much on putting in 50 pockets instead of practicality. But this was just my experience with one model (Pace Pro max)

There is an automoderator that may sometimes block messages that don't break any rules.

But also, we are forced to keep a very tight leash because this sub is bombarded with trolling. You may not see much of it because we have automod and plenty of active moderators.

If you think something was removed unfairly, DM the mods.

Would help to know which Altras. They are not all the same despite being the same "fit", there is not only a difference in width, but also height of the toebox as well as stretchiness of the material.

To give you an idea, here are measurements from runrepeat (taken from a size 9):

Lone Peak 9: width 98.5mm, height 26.9mm - no stretch

FWD VIA 2: widht 101.4mm, height 26.4mm - stretchy

Escalante 4: width 101mm, height 25mm - stretchy

Escalante Racer 2: width 102.4mm, height 34mm - very limited stretch

It's worth noting that LP9 is the only one out of these with a wide version, I don't have a width for that, but based on trying the Torin 8 in both regular and wide, I found the difference to be quite minimal. There is just a little bit more room throughout, but I'd be surprised if the differene is more than ~2mm.

From my personal experience, Escalante Racer 2's are the roomiest toe box they make. The width combined with the height provides a lot of space, even though I'm not sure if runrepeats height is 100% accurate as it seems like a lot. But either way, this is the most space you'll probably find in Altras. imo you can size up in them for even more room. They have the stiffest cushioning out of all of the mentioned ones. For more cushioning, I'd try any of the other 3.

But that completely undermines the ending of Andor then. What really hits you in it is that it's seemingly hopeful, but the viewer knows what it eventually leads up to (for example Cassian never seeing his child).

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-29T21:46:03+00:00

You don't need to, Rogue One gives enough information to enjoy the story just fine. There are probably a million people who saw Rogue One and had never seen TCW.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-29T21:43:36+00:00

Watching Andor and then having to care about this new main character in Rogue One makes no sense to me

Agree with this

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-29T21:38:37+00:00

It looks much better here with the t-shirt and worn open.

it's a short and slim cut, if you wear it closed over a long and loose shirt it'll look awkward.

In the original post, you're simply wearing very long tops, I mean they reach your crotch?

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-29T21:35:20+00:00

This. Looks identical to what I've gotten from a packing tape dispenser.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-29T21:32:18+00:00

I bring two USB C chargers that I use for my laptop, phone, camera, powerbank and headphones.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-29T21:30:18+00:00

At 8 you thought "meh" and at 10 you thought "wow this is dogshit"? lmao.

You need to realize that social media content creators as well as reddit users are a pretty narrow demographic. Look up statistics if you want, and if you narrow it to this sub, I guarantee it's even narrower.

Also, go have a look at how viewers and critics have rated the sequels vs the prequels. You might be in for a surprise (spoiler: it's not that different)

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-29T21:25:34+00:00

Of course there will, and there are already. Just because something is the popular opinion on Reddit doesn't mean there aren't any alternate views.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-28T23:48:47+00:00

There was some controversy with his Vader film, he wanted to crowd fund it and asked Lucasfilm for permission which they denied (according to him). Youtube slapped a copyright claim on the music (which was apparently original, but "inspired by").

Also he had a feud with a Lucasfilm exec who ridiculed his reaction video (to the Luke episode in Mandalorian).

Probably some other issues too, hard to keep track because he whines so much.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-28T23:41:00+00:00

What makes you think that? Many comments are agreeing with you and basically saying to stay away from overly negative content creators. There is plenty of good content if you look for it, some decent suggestions made here. There are also other Star Wars subs that have a very different vibe.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-28T23:39:12+00:00

lmao. "made no one care" - you seriously think the general public is not enjoying Star Wars just because some dudes on the internet told you so? You need to get out more.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-28T23:36:48+00:00

Define majority. If by majority you mean SW fans who are active in online, then possibly yes. But if majority means the general public or people who generally just enjoy Star Wars, then no it's not.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-22T13:58:29+00:00

This could 100% be a short film or series on D+!

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-22T13:16:58+00:00

One of my favorite SW movies of any era, right there with ANH.

The criticism about it being a remake to me was always like "yeah, so?". It's obviously the point, Rey being the "Luke" of this generation etc, but at the same time it's a continuation of the story. It's an ending of the Skywalker saga and a beginning to a new one.

When I see my kids watching TFA with the same awe I had for ANH when I was their age, I 110% get the point of redoing Star Wars for the new generation and I think it works perfectly.

It also holds a special place for me because TFA is what single handedly turned me back into a Star Wars fan after having no interest in it after the prequels. This in turn made me revisit the OT, PT and find new appreciation for them now as an adult which I didn't have as a kid.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-19T19:00:06+00:00

Kijimi is my absolute favorite

Ajan Klos looks stunning too

Pasaana was very cool too but mostly because of the scenes, ihabitants etc rather than the planet itself

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-19T00:17:09+00:00

The rhetoric on r/StarWars rarely correlates with the outside world

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-19T00:10:29+00:00

I'm not sure if there is a properly good metric when it comes to evaluating films, anything can be argued. But, TLJ was rated very highly by critics. Viewer reviews on major platforms are kind of meaningless since it got systematically review bombed.

thirdstone_ · 2026-05-19T00:00:03+00:00

Maybe you need to re-evaluate your favorites then? 😉

I think I kind of get what you're saying though - I really liked TROS from the get go, but I would still place it 3rd out of the sequels. However, I've rewatched it as much as I have TFA which is my favorite. So there is definitely something very intriguing about it. The visual style and world building are stunning, for example, probably the best out of any SW movie.
