Time for some random, unorganized thoughts

I was one of those guys that thought Last Jedi was a god damn mess. Complete character derailments, concentrating on shit that didn't matter, etc.

but we're not here to talk about that

I'm commenting on that because keeping that inmind, its a Miracle that this movie came out decent

and thats pretty much the bottomline, I thought this movie was okay. But rising from the depths of hell that it did, thats way more than we could've ever dreamed for.

It was an okay wrap up to things, but it just...I dunno...didn't feel epic. I guess I'm spoiled by Avengers at this point

I will say that it gave a good feeling of adventure again. The little missions they were carrying out were fun and filled with action.

I will admit, they had me going with Chewie dying. I was like yall chose to do that NOW?! but they pulled his survival out of their asses "lol jk"

One thing that DID annoy me about this movie was it should've been called "Rey separates from the group to their chagrin for the 100th time in 2 hours"

REY WERE U GOIN

I GAWT TO DO DA TING

NO REY

YA FINN

Speaking of Rey, it was interesting that they made her a Palpatine, but I found it much more satisfying when they had her a nobody. Gives the impression you don't have to be born into anything to make a difference. but no, back to that shit.

another complaint is that the movie like it was a bunch of payoffs...without the build up. Palpatine is back...okay..why? how? what? when? where? who? que? nani?
oh hes just here and hes already got a billion star destroyers with no reason, oh no time to think about that I guess.
a big turning point for the rebels is that there were no allies left in the galaxy. So the big hero moment at the end also came out of no where. I felt like that was a 5 minute scene missing where somebody rallied them. I guess Lando could've had some influence but still man.

I was very interested in the whys, but I can see they just wanted to delivery eye candy and action to the viewers.

speaking of pandering

Man, rose don't matter anymore, huh? that makes Last Jedi AN EVEN BIGGER FUCKING WASTE NOW.

CHEWIE GOT A FUCKING MEDAL SON. FINALLY

And holy shit, @Wedge_Antilles MADE IT BACK. I knew it was him. It was super disheartening to hear that he didn't care anymore, but here he was. I dunno if it was annoyed by fan cry or he actually had a turn of heart, but it was good to see him back

And Lando was very underused...but in a good way. Every scene he was in counted.

I like how they gave Nien Nunb a speaking role. I spent the entirety of Last Jedi wondering if he was dead. I was hoping he would become Lando's copilot again but that honor definitely belonged to Chewie.

Harrison Ford coming back one final final time was great.

The final fight was disappointing, they wrote themselves into a corner. they can't have Rey cut down the emperor anymore. I remember people saying he purposely let himself get zapped by his own lightning to sway Anakin to help him. No, that was fuckin lie /tyler the creator
He zapped himself until he exploded. Dumbass.
Speaking of Dumbass. How about NOT TELLING REY HER KILLING YOU WILL BRING YOUR PLAN INTO FRUITION. OR NOT ANNOUNCING YOUR RETURN TO THE UNIVERSE.

thats about all I can think of at the moment. It was good but not great. However getting good was a miracle
