My friends bought me a ticket for the first Friday, as it gets closer I'm kinda excited I guess, should be a good time even if three movie isn't bad but honestly I didn't even hate TLJ.

Hyped in the sense that its star wars, a franchise I've loved since I was 5, and there will always be a primal id in me that is hyped to see a new one.

That said, TLJ really killed anything special I felt for THIS movie. TFA had problems, but it clearly had a planned trajectory. Rian Johnson literally threw out that trajectory because "what a twist" and didnt leave much compelling left in its place. Now we have the original director coming in to course correct. And we have a final chapter of a trilogy where we know shockingly little about most of the characters, know very little about the conflict/war beyond that it's happening because... nobody knows why, and have little to actually care about.

There's only so good a movie like that can realistically be.

TBH I feel really bad for JJ Abrams, here. Again, whatever problems TFA had, he was really put in an unwinnable situation with RoS. And it must suck to see something you had clearly charted out in a state like this.

The Last Jedi followed TFA's trajectory perfectly, people are just mad their innately sucky predictions didn't come true.

We have word of God evidence from the writers and director that that is not true.

I'm not hyped and I'll be avoiding it, same as the previous two films.

The new trilogy just doesn't have any compelling reasons for me to care about it.

Yeah I could totally tell the whole time watching TFA that (TLJ spoilers) Snoke was going to die in the the next movie while Poe was sidelined the whole time.

I didn't know there was a rule that characters couldn't get killed

The first one doesnt conflict with TFA at all, and the second one isn't even...I dunno, man, like what.

Gonna watch it as a Star Wars fan but Im not overly hyped or anything. I really didnt like that 7 was a rehash of 4. And while TLJ wasnt perfect I liked that it took chances and wasnt afraid to tell a different story or change the story we thought we knew. But now JJ is back and the cast and JJ himself have been kinda trashing the subverting expectations thing that TLJ did so you just know TROS is gonna be so freaking cookie cutter. Like if you dont intend on telling a new story, then whats the point of any of this?

For TFA and TLJ I stayed off the internet for the week leading up to their releases in order to avoid spoilers. I don't think I'm gonna do that with this one because my interest in this story and these characters has waned considerably.

See you next Wednesday.

I don't know if I'll see it. I saw the other two only because friends wanted to and I couldn't think of a reason not to. They haven't brought up the newest one yet.

I'm excited. I got literally everything out of 7 and 8 that I hoped to.

But you gotta keep in mind that all I hoped to get out of them was hearing those first glorious measures of the John Williams Star Wars theme on theater audio.

And this remains true for 9. If the movie is good, that's just a nice bonus.

Pretty fucking hyped dawg. I'm rewatching the whole series and I'm truly realizing that TFA and TLJ really are the best made films in the franchise.

I might see it on my birthday but probably not. I'm getting really sick of Star Wars movies at this point.
