Topic	One removed from The Last Jedi-- The movie is still fucking awesome (spoilers)
OliviaTremor 12/19/18 3:02:52 PM #57:	CasanovaZelos posted... Now, I do enjoy dull movies. I have watched several films that belong to the 'Slow Cinema' movement. Not that I think The Last Jedi belongs anywhere near there, but you know... Anyway, my reasons for loving The Last Jedi fall largely into the technical and stylistic aspects of the film. I guess I find the plot critiques so odd because I've never viewed Star Wars as a series where I cared about the actual details of how things worked? Like, to me, watching a Star Wars movie for the plot makes about as much sense as listening to Daft Punk for the lyrics. I agree with everything in this post. The Last Jedi had some absolutely fantastic set pieces and gorgeous cinematography. It's a stunningly beautiful movie in my opinion. Maybe you don't care for the light speed suicide, but I find it hard to believe that someone didn't gasp in amazement at the way the scene was shot, the brilliant sound cut, and lingering on the destruction. It's moments like that that make Star Wars for me, personally, and when a Star Wars movie does something well (or even poorly) it is forever ingrained in your memory. --- Notyou <cite>OliviaTremor posted [p:914399679] in One remove...
