New Behind the Scenes Video from The Last Jedi Showcases the Beauty of Ireland

Regardless of your feelings about The Last Jedi, it’s hard to argue the breathtaking natural beauty of Skellig Michael island off the coast of Ireland. Follow the cast and crew in a brief new behind the scenes video from the YouTube channel of Ireland’s official tourism website, Discover Ireland.

 

 

 

 

And my favorite part of the video…here’s what a real Skellig Porg looks like prior to the added post-production creature effects 🙂 ….

 

 

Happy New Year everyone!

      Im disgusted by what Ive seen. Ashamed to be a “fan”

      RJ poured his heart into the film, took a swing, for some it hit, for others it missed, but some people make the fanbase look like classless, entitled nerds

        I think the great thing about this movie is that it has shown how many of them are just lowest common denominator idiots

        Agree. But I wouldn’t worry about some punk-ass millennial hiding behind a computer bashing this movie. Which by the way was a great movie. If they don’t like it … they should quit watching Star Wars movies, move out of their parents basement and go get a job so they can spend $300M of their own money and make it the way they want to.

        This is the most hateful and racist thing I’ve ever seen regarding sw. It’s not funny even a bit. The so called fandom is worse than ever…

          It’s a teeny, tiny minority of people it just seems like there are more because they shout loudest and the internet has given them a forum in which to do it.

          Shrug and move on its a microcosm of society and there’s absolutely nothing you or I can do to change it.

        I’m happy most of the haters around say they won’t be watching any upcoming StarWars anymore. I’m not talking about people who doesn’t like The Last Jedi, I’m talking about the racist brats and Rian Johnson bulliers around. This inclusive female filled trilogy is not for you.

          Of course they will and they will find lots of new things to hate. Because human nature. 😉

        wtf is wrong with people. I liked Rose, can see why some people didn’t like her but… I don’t know, deal with it. Seriously concerned for the actress. She seems like the nicest person ever, she doesn’t deserve all that.

        God… that is just horrible… 🙁

        I didn’t like the film, but I thought Rose was a lovely addition to the cast. In fact I wish, she and Finn had more screentime together and a better B plot.

      It’s like Battle Royale.

      Last one standing wins.

    If the saga had been released in order and Episode V came out right now, people would be like

    #thisisnotmyyoda
    #irvinruinedmychildhood
    #starwarsisover

    and then when VI would come out:

    The f$ck with you Richard Marquand: the jedi master that defeated Palpatine dies in his f*cking bed at the beginning of the second act??? Where’s the scene with the lightsaber duel in which he finally destroys Palpatine??? Where’s Palpatine’s lightsaber??? Why anyone calls him Sidious anymore??? PLOT HOLES ALL OVER

      After ESB:

      Luke is such a failure! He tries to take on Vader despite not being physically or mentally ready for it, then nearly dies after his hand gets chopped off. He defies the wisdom of the great master Yoda and stupidly walks into the trap set by Vader! This is not my Luke Skywalker, the great and perfect hero of the battle of Yavin!

      After JEDI:

      Luke is such a failure! He nearly gets himself all his friends killed with his stupid, convoluted plan to rescue Han. Oh, my god, the plot holes! He only saves them when Boba Fett and a barge full of Jabba’s henchmen conveniently forget how to use their blasters at close range. Plus the guy at the barge cannon can’t hit the side of a barn, either! Totally ruined the great character of Boba Fett to have him miss from four feet way and get flung into the Sarlacc like a total bitch!
      Then Luke endangers the mission to Endor by attracting Darth Vader and gives himself up like a complete coward!

      NOT MY LUKE SKYWALKER!

      I just watched ROTJ last nite and saw the last Jedi 3 Times now. It’s craxy to compare the style of both. I like both but there’s a certain maturity to ROTJ that I hope episode 9 can kinda follow. Luke is ready to face the challenge no matter the cost and it would be cool to see rey like that. Also Vader is just the best villain of all time. Kylo needs to dedicate to being a evil supreme leader or just give up

    Such a pretty little hidden corner of the world. I really hope Luke didn’t litter the place with cigarette butts, Smashburger wrappers, and green milkshake cups before he Kirked-out.

    It’s not the visuals I have a problem with in TLJ (well, almost, Luke’s face drinking the green milk is straight out of a $20. is $20. porn flick.) it’s actually the SCRIPT that sucked. The sets, locations, and space battles were epic and amazing! Everything every character spoke and the plot “points” were horrid.
