The Last Jedi was at least an hour too long. Best parts of the story revolved around the space wizards, but goddamn did Rian do his best to fuck up his own movie

All Star Wars fans want is Episode IV-VI, I'm pretty sure.

I liked TLJ, even though I do feel the Resistance plot had a lot of issues.

The people that complain about Luke and Rey can suck an egg, though.

This cast is just filled with unlikable characters now. Without Luke or Han, there's nothing left. Snoke was interesting but kind of just got erased, and Phasma could have had a ton of potential.

Ugh, this movie just gets worse the more I think about it.

And Luke burning down the tree with Yoda

I loved most of it, but could honestly cut Finn, Rose, and Poe from the movie entirely and feel essentially nothing. Thats the part that gets worse the more I think about it. I by and large loved all the Rey/Luke/Kylo material but wow Finn/Rose are bad. At least theyre pretty scenes. Its basically the podracing of TLJ.

Originality is overrated, not a merit that supports media on its own, and doesnt even apply to this movie.

I don't understand why people keep complaining about Them focusing on the new characters.

Like, what the fuck did you think this is? On top of that, why do people treat Luke "dying" as being like a definitive death? Did nobody fucking watch ESB or RotJ? Did nobody see the scene in this very movie with Yoda?

Rey sucks and we wanted to see Luke stick around and make shit awesome again.

Yeah because either film was anything close to an extreme. But keep being fueled by hate and ridiculed by all while Disney makes bank as you go see the movie 2,3,4,5 times just to prove how much you hate it.

I agree it was pretty mediocre. And they killed off any potentially interesting story arcs or just forgot about others.

Who are Reys parents? Doesnt matter
Who is Snoke? Doesnt matter
What about Phasma? Doesnt matter
What about the Jedi Order? Doesnt matter
Who the hell are the Knights of Ren? Doesnt matter

What exactly do I have to look forward to for the next movie?

I dont think Rey or Kylo are enough to carry the franchise.

Snoke is the only interesting in this list. And if you paid attention you'd know that Rey took the books, you see them when Finn gets the blanket for rose, so the jedi order will survive with her.

And most interestingly, it's setting up a post Skywalker universe when kylo dies. Which means you have infinite ways to take the franchise. Rather than people so desperate that they were trying to find some way to relate Rey to the Skywalkers

Oh that's why Finn had those books, I was wondering why it looked like he had the jedi books at that point

Thats a good point, I did notice the books but didnt connect it.

I was still interested in the rest. And now Im not anymore. I also could care less about some new Star Wars universe but thats me. Im the type that hates Marvel movies now because theyre so overdone.

I liked it but found too many issues with the story. Mark Hamill himself did not like where his character went and preferred the original 7-9 outline that George Lucas approached him with. I think he felt like it was a bait and switch because Disney scraped the original outline because GL wanted to do teens again like TPM.

Yeah, it wasn't until after Episode 4 released.

So when he did Episode 5 he just spouted out gibberish for all of his scenes and forced actors to react to the gibberish.

Answers to all of those questions. J.J. will be in control again and surely has a plan to address what he set up in episode 7.

Absolutely possible given that he had already said he disagreed with everything they did with Luke and the death scene didn't require telling him he would fade away

That theory is actually starting to get real traction. Here's a video of him before AND after the premier, and you can tell something is horribly wrong:
