From what i remember you don't even see her go through the door, just a puff of smoke and she's getting wheeled out.

She clearly goes through a door in one shot and then through a different door in another.


edit - actually you see the first door in the second shot.

lol don’t move the goalposts! It’s clear there is an airlock :p

Surviving the vacuum of space is pretty redonk / silly I agree but the whole “it should have sucked everyone out” is overzealous, the puzzle pieces are there to infer an airlock. I remember this coming up when the film first came out and thinking “oh... I’m sure there was an airlock” and people swore there wasn’t. Huzzah for YouTube :p

There are a lot of websites that are raising serious questions about how trustworthy Atom Tickets are. Especially given that they are part of the Disney group. Disney certainly don't seem to be above employing lots of underhanded shenanigans to try and up hype on their products.

Agreed. The Last Jedi in the UK was fairly hard to grab seats at Cineworld Leicester Square when tickets first became available for the first few viewings for the earliest few days. And was downright impossible nearly for End Game for the first few viewings on the first few days (had to scrunch down into C row for the first time and even then it was crowded on the 8am showing). Right now, most of the seats are still available there for Rise of Skywalker. As is the Odeon at Leicester Square too. So I have trouble believing that Rise of Skywalker will challenge End Game in the slightest, certainly not here in the UK at least.

Also, if the booked seats in the US are to be believed, they're all in the same "patterns" of seats taken within the first few moments of it becoming possible to book, which also doesn't conform to any known human booking method as they're in blocks, or and entire column of singular seats, rather than a row, or being scattered but largely in such a pattern, etc. No, it was a straight line or block of seats taken. So something is definitely fishy if those articles are true.

So apparently this is news though i'm near sure Lucas being brought in was talked about several months back. Supposedly three edits being toyed with (suicide squad anyone?) and Lucas' version is scoring the best for test audiences. Suppose we'll never hear the right way of it but if this is even vaguely true it shows Disney hasn't a lot of confidence in the movie currently.
 
The Kennedy getting fired thing would work... despite the film. i somehow doubt they bring George back to reedit for test screenings, and frankly i doubt they can cut a film so differently from a filmed script at this stage to make a difference in test screenings of 29 versus 88 in scoring.
 
George has had his day. His input would be useful but the last trilogy he did were all worse than the force awakens and last Jedi. I can't even watch episode 1 and 2

I hate sand

To be honest after TFA and TLJ id happily watch 1,2 and 3, as **** as they were at least it was George and made some form of sense.

Agree with this. Although I never really had any major issues with the prequels in the first place, the continuity in terms of a concise universe is leaps and bounds ahead of what we got in TLJ (where it really went down bad. TFA you could have got away with had TLJ not screwed its continuity up with itself).

So for me, it'll remain 1-6 as the real Star Wars story, and 7 was the "could have been" for the future of Star Wars, but 8 turned up and spoiled 7 too. 9 I continue to have no interest in. And a quick look at the 9am showing at London Leicester Square Cineworld IMAX for the first day remains below averagely filled. Think if I had any interest I could walk up to the box office on the day and get good tickets at this rate.
