Last Jedi spoiler thread

Yeah which is why Poe mutinies it's all honestly so dumb

Yes. But that makes sense, Lucas values freedom. Disney is basically a corporate empire at this point.

I watched it again... Idk I kind of want to like it because it had some cool moments but I know they messed things up. It didn't accomplish anything really, it was more like a step backwards. The whole main story was just dumb. It was just the First Order chasing the Resistance through space... My biggest complaint though is how at the end the Resistance is literally just ten people and the Millennium Falcon. No. In TFA it was two superpowers the New Republic and the First Order. Sure the Core Republic planets were destroyed but that couldn't be all of it. And there's no way they couldn't get help from anyone else. They said the First Order had been expanding but it's just been a week they can't have expanded that much. Idk... But they should've just ended it at the shot of the Falcon, What was the point of those cringey kids... And they shouldn't have killed Luke. Or ruined all the other storylines..

Yeah now that you mention it that seems familiar... I remember big boy Bulla Nen though not sure if he was the sarlaacc or that was something else

I watched it again. I thought this was only my second time watching it but from my above comment apparently I had rewatched it once before...

Well I still don't like it. Finn and Rose's side quest was so weird. They set up some very complicated plan using a lot of techy jargon that most people will not understand and ultimately it was useless. TESB also had Han and Leia's side plot where they were separated from Luke (like how Rey is separated here) but that was simply them trying to escape from the Empire. No pointless adventure to lengthen the movie.

Rose's character was so unnecessary. If she was a well written character it may have made up for it but she wasn't so it didn't. Just replacing her with Poe would've made that whole side plot so much better. And seriously they gave this newly introduced character more of a backstory than Poe, who is supposed to be a main character? It seriously should've been Poe and Finn doing stuff. Also at the end, she gives her autistic little monologue about how the power of love will save them as the First Order literally fucking blows an entrance into their base in the background. Something that could've been prevented if someone had sacrificed themself. Fucking Rose could've sacrificed herself and saved Finn instead of just saving Finn and letting everyone else get fucked. At first I thought she died which makes her action even more stupid but I think she lives. Not sure which is worse.

Rey fucking sucks. If she went 1v1 vs Anakin, she would massacre him. She shouldn't be able to but she would. She could kill Mace and Yoda also probably. Maybe after taking them both at the same time. I just can't like her. She is such a bad character just like everyone else in these movies. That's what a lot of it comes down to, the characters just being made stupid. Rey is some OP annoying bitch, Poe is a gung-ho idiot desparate to be a hero. Finn is just clueless. But at least he has good intentions. He tries to do the right thing and tries to help people. He may just be decent.

Surprisingly I liked Kylo more here than in TFA. In TFA he felt overly edgy. He's still edgy but he was very analytically calm at times which was a good vibe for the character. I know killing Snoke without explaining him at all was a fuck up but seeing it now after just not caring about these movies, lowkey it was a cool moment. Kylo was sick of taking shit from his master and decided to kill him. Kylo's just a guy who's tired of the same shit that doesn't work, the Jedi, the Sith, the Rebels, the First Order. It's time for all of it to end so he can build a new galactic order in his vision. This is an acceptable drive. Just the timing of killing Snoke was bad I guess because it leaves so many questions.

Hux is just a joke. Like can anyone even like him? He is like Starscream from transformers but worse. Both were massive pussies trying to take power but Starscream had some good moments. Hux just gets pushed around by everyone. Literally. He was better in TFA I think. Tbh Domhnall Gleeson would've made a better good guy imo. There's some great actors in the cast but their talents are wasted with these shitty characters

Ugh, I was on a Sonic forum and I saw this interesting topic that related to the Star Wars fandom, which inevitably got to talking about TLJ and Rey being a Mary-Sue. I don't normally get into debates, but I decided to wade in and describe to one person why Rey is a bad character. Their response was simple: smug, passive-aggressive retorts and pretty much labelling me a sexist. Oddly, it's now left me utterly despising TLJ even more now, yet not quite as much as its asshat fanbase.
