A shame of a movie. Honestly we expected more.
Originally posted by zeelStill within projections but China has continued to disappoint. Han Solo is the film to worry about when it comes to Star Wars films. Last Jedi was fantastic to me and cruised past a billion to gross the most box office dollars for 2017.

Unless EA gets punished for the mess that was Battlefront 2, it might be a while.At least the Solo trailer is supposed to hit during the Superbowl.

Yeah, for space fantasy it wasn't bad, lots of laughs and some pretty special effects. But it has plotholes large enough to drive a truck through and it's getting harder and harder to find the 'science' in the science fiction part. A fun, forgettable 7/10.

I had high expectations for the movie. I mean, Disney has rocket MCU! I expected for Disney to do the same with SW!
Maybe thats one of the reasons the fans disliked it that much...High expectations for such a mediocre movie.

I agree about the high expectations but disagree about the mediocre. I gave it 7/10 which is pretty good.
I tend to like movies that are entertaining, even if they have a few flaws. Best SW movie ever? Not even close. But still a lot better than a bunch of crap that came out last year.

Well it looks like everyone agrees about TLJ being a disappointment.

But let’s be real. Star Wars is always going to be a viable property. The prequels proved that fans will weather just about any storm thrown their way, and even with the creatively-fraught Solo: A Star Wars Story on the horizon, it’s impossible to imagine a world in a Disney-backed Star Wars movie doesn’t make serious waves every time one is released. It’s just a matter of how big those waves will be. More importantly, though, if any of the franchise’s upcoming entries (including Rian Johnson’s new trilogy) is half as creative and satisfying as The Last Jedi, we’ll find ourselves in the middle of a new golden age of Star Wars. And even if Disney doesn’t end up making quite the level of cash they were hoping, they’ll surely (hopefully?) be pleased with being the custodians of the biggest and best science fiction franchise in cinematic history.
