By domino Go To PostFinn there to build Rey up to pick a lame like KyloWorst thing about the movie easily. Jesus.
But yeah, whole movie was trash. JJ was going lightspeed to the dumpster.
Wtf @ the pace
By /sy Go To PostWatched it. Boring like every other star wars movie
But
This hoe Rey really kissed Kylo Ren and Finn couldnt get a smooch the whole trilogy?
Bruh he got a kiss on the forehead and is in love with Poe
Finally watched it. I thought it was okay. Star Wars fan base is literally the worst. This movie is nowhere near prequel bad and you got people looking fondly on them now.

It’s a million times more competent than the prequels but is more soulless and artless. Film Crit Hulk wrote an article on texture vs text - prequels vs TRoS is all about that - https://observer.com/2018/05/the-two-crucial-filmmaking-elements-causing-all-your-movie-feuds/

These movies are super forgettable, but the prequels are memorable for all the wrong reasons.
went to watch with family
may legit be the worst star wars film there'll ever be, at least the prequels had some good set pieces and ideas, this is half mindless fanservice, half me wanting to leave the cinema and never come back

I think you need to watch the prequels again.
This is like everyone pretending Bush isn’t the worst president of all time because of Trump.

I’ve seen the prequels several times. Still haven’t seen the Sequel Trilogy more than once and I don’t plan to.
Meh, I consider the sequel trilogy a success and I'm sure Disney does too. 80% RT average for this trilogy despite RoS not sticking the landing, and plenty successful financially.
They've got challenging times ahead, but we'll see how they manage it.

its just so boring
it doesnt even have highs like the pt (palpatine being
super hammy, an actual climax, new story beats in star wars), its just a soulless rethread of story arcs we've seen before but much worse
poor adam driver went from best character in the trilogy to a bit character

i actually laughed at how ben solo has not a single line in the movie
leia and lukes lightsabers get buried in a planet that their entire family hated with a passion, where their grandma got raped and murdered and their father was a slave

By Dark PhaZe Go To PostMeh, I consider the sequel trilogy a success and I'm sure Disney does too. 80% RT average for this trilogy despite RoS not sticking the landing, and plenty successful financially.They manage it by making production more like Marvel and I wouldn't be surprised if Kevin Feige is literally producing the next one. Disney will make all the decisions and somebody will just come in and shoot the non-action scenes.
They've got challenging times ahead, but we'll see how they manage it.
They have a Star Wars on the release calendar for holiday 2022 already.
Dawg the sequel trilogy went from $2B at the box office to a little over half of that for ROS when everything is said and done.
Unmitigated disaster from a brand management perspective

By Xpike Go To Postguess people finally realized star wars is badI think it's more that they released five films in five years, there were very public production problems on several of them, and the end results were all over the place. I think it's both that they made Star War less special and they vastly overestimated public hunger for it.
I'm honestly surprised they cancelled those spin off movies just to go and greenlight more Star Wars shows for Disney Plus. Like, people didn't show out for a Han Solo movie, but they're gonna watch a show about Cassian Andor?
That the last chapter of the Star Wars saga is not even in the same stratosphere as Endgame and might have to huff and puff its way past Toy Story 4 and Captain Marvel, let alone The Lion King and Frozen 2, is wild and unthinkable just 3 years ago.
This was a mess. I went for the midnight showing, and I had fun.
But it is a complete mess. I'd rate it above the prequels for general competence and charisma of the leads. But that's it.

Wait. Was that still supposed to be Luke's Lightsaber?
I thought it blew up in the Last Jedi throne room fight.

Damn no build up at all to Palpatine's return. Just, "Surprise! I'm back bitches!" in the opening text scroll. How the hell Finn, Rey, and Poe didn't have more screen time in the first two films, I'll never know. They're great together.
saw it last night. it wasn't great. I am sure the manchildren loved it though.
Guys I got to tell you something.

Rose should've let Finn die if all they were going to have him do in ROTS was run around shouting a verb, a noun, and Rey.
By domino Go To Postbless the difficulty of Carrie Fisher's CGITrained Jedi btw
TBF, Luke got his ass kicked at the end of ESB and a week later he shows up in ROTJ proclaiming himself to be a Master Jedi eventhough he ditched his training five days in.
So I decided to read the plot on wikipedia. Sounds stupid. Can any character just be brought back to life?

By /sy Go To PostWho TF cares about RoseNo one it's just click bait.
Rose was pointless, but she wasn't more pointless than bringing C3PO along, so the sidelining was an obvious dick move and the excuse is worse.
But this is what Star Wars fans deserve anyway.

By DY_nasty Go To Postwhy is there a power ranger in thislmao i thought so too, theme kept playing in my head
its cuz they needed a vague love interest for Poe so he isnt gay
These shippers really should just watch anime instead and leave Star Wars the fuck alone.
EDIT: Okay I'm caught up on what John Boyega said. Give him a medal for telling the most annoying people on the internet to fuck off. What a goddamn king.
