Oh well. Most of what I've encountered when it comes to criticisms of the film is pretty depressing, like,
Spoiler:
"Luke tried to kill Kylo which isn't his character at all" or "how come Luke didn't force-project himself to save Han or somewhere else" or "Why didn't Yoda contact Luke earlier" among other completely wrong/bad critiques of TLJ.

Some of the mentions of flaws are valid but I haven't seen anything solid (or even accurate) enough to suggest this movie is so terrible. It's overblown, per usual. Everyone who has a keyboard in front of them thinks they're a groundbreaking critic because they repeat generic copy/paste circle jerk phrases like, "Disney deposited X amount of money into your account" or "Mary Poppins in Space" or whatever the fuck else.

I'm thoroughly bored of greenhorn critics thinking they're Ebert or some shit. Criticize all you want. Nothing wrong with that. Just don't pretend you're right, like it is something you can be "correct" about and everyone else is nuts for enjoying or seeing value in this SW installment.


And here you are acting like you're the authority on what people can think. Here's a novel idea: Some people aren't going to like a film that does what TLJ does....Some people will love it. Sorry that not everyone is going to coddle you and validate your feelings. My advice? Deal with it.

No one is "Right or Wrong" on this. That's why it's an OPINION. Film, like art, is subjective. Hard to grasp right?

Well, one thing for sure.

Quan won't be wearing his Snoke sig again.

Are you kidding me ? Once I find new images I'll sport a new one. He's by far the greatest Star Wars character thus far. Most powerful, greatest voice, greatest screen presence, greatest robe, etc. The manner in which he mocked everyone was spectacular.

I've already issued a battlezone challenge to any Palpatine cuck once these clips arrive on youtube probably after the DVD release.

Oh Quan......

How much do you think this movie will make at the box office?

Do not be salty Snoke is the most powerful baddie ever. Just accept it and roll with the tide.

1.3 -1.7 Billion most likely. I dont see it cracking 2 like it's predecessor..

This movie was shit.

Still loved that

Spoiler:
one light speed cruiser scene and the hype behind a certain Jedi at the end of the movie.

Use spoiler tags, please.

It is false. I guess falsehoods are funny to you. Odd.

Luke was treated like trash in this movie.

Agreed. Just like Han was in TFA...

Wonder if the ending means that a bunch of force sensative people are going to sprout as Jedi in IX to combat Kylo Ren and the first. Unlike with Sidious there isn't much of anything the rebellion can exploit less there was something in here pointing to it.

Also did I mention that this movie has a lot of dumb stuff in it. As the dumb stuff is really bad...also still don't like how

Spoiler:
this is the second time that Leia connects with Rey over Chewbacca. And I guess nothing came of Finn possibly being force sesitive but we got casino shenanigans and (not)Lando

Yeah... part of me wants to forget TLJ.

I hope Disney reconsiders Johnson directing the new trilogy.

Pacing was off.

Spoiler:
The casino part.. Lame. I hated seeing Leia Supermaning in the beginning. Why even bother sending Rey after Luke when she clearly a FKN Jedi God. Snoke...wasted and simply a plot device for Kylo. Phasma....wasted and inconsequential. Finn....pointless and denied of one really epic and meaningful scene. Lots of buildup that ultimately leads no where and leave the audience scratching the back of their heads. Rey is still as Sue as ever, shit even besting Luke. Speaking of Luke...did I mention he was treated like absolute shit? Sigh. The more I think about it the less I like the movie. Literally no hype for E9. Specially with a joke of a villain/threat like Kylo

Good post. Need to agree... 🙁

kill me plz

Me too.

The best things in this film were the visuals and some of the action everything else was a complete slap in the face to the OT.

I completely understand the backlash this film is getting.
