I kept waiting for something dumb to happen like time travel or something, but that never happened. I mean, ~~Palpatine is back~~, of course, but that much was known from the trailers.

CyricZ 12/27/19 11:32:00 AM #4:	One thing about the cottage industry of Not Liking Star Wars is that nailing down a single thing or series of things people don't like about it is a rabbit hole. There are so many factions these days with regards to Star Wars critique and so many are eager to tell you what makes theirs the better one. --- CyricZ <cite>CyricZ posted [p:932115753] in Finally sa...

IShall_Run_Amok 12/27/19 11:43:56 AM #8:	The cottage industry of media-hating revolves around using peer pressure and brain washing to create a hive mind in order to perpetuate the industry. Once you get that down, you can get a large portion of people to have the exact same nonsense opinions, many of them contradictory, and furthermore to have a personal, emotional investment in these opinions. --- I didn't even know Al Gore had rhythm. <cite>IShall_Run_Amok posted [p:932116149] in Finally sa...

MrMallard 12/27/19 11:48:05 AM #10:	The leaks were, more or less, the entire plot of the movie. Down to ~~Luke and Leia's training scene, the Knights of Ren stuff~~ and the different planets visited. I think the issues that fans had with that leak, and in extension the end result, are as follows: ~~Cheap, random macguffin out of nowhere~~ ~~Random life transfer power~~ ~~Rey's lineage~~ ~~Reylo ending~~ ~~Tatooine ending~~ It wasn't the worst movie I've ever seen, but I've certainly seem better. The elements outlined above are a reason why I think people were particularly upset. The leak read like a cheap fanfiction, and the movie vindicated every last point that was leaked. --- Snap your fingers, I'll come running, and leave again when you're bored.

HBOSS 12/27/19 11:49:27 AM #11:	i was curious what the leaks were too but i think i would mad if they leaked the entire movie plot and i had no intention of knowing. at a premiere in my theater someone apparently yelled a spoiler as the movie began or something. like right before lucasfilms appeared. i couldnt hear it though and the spoiler was met with boos and groans. the crowd was forgiving though and everyone enjoyed the movie after that. i chuckled at the reaction. --- You don't stop playing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop playing <cite>HBOSS posted [p:932116329] in Finally sa...

AFAIK the Force has never been able to do that. I didn't have a problem with this. It's a natural extension of what were introduced to in TLJ, builds gradually in importance until the oh shit moment during the climax, and is integral to the plot and not a huge asspull like the ~~force healing or anti fleet lightning.~~ We're always going to see new Force Powers introduced, this was the best way it could have been done. --- I have no idea whether or not he's a racist, but apparently there are recordings of him using racial slurs so it's a distinct possibility. <cite>Blighboy posted [p:932117090] in Finally sa...

BakonBitz 12/27/19 12:17:44 PM #16:	The funniest thing about the outrage against the movie for me was "OMG, the title crawl referenced a Fortnite event WTF IS WRONG WITH THEM" Like...okay? It doesn't actually name Fortnite for one thing, and second, while I agree it's kind of a big plot development to just drop on the title crawl...it's not a big deal.
