Current Events > Was the last jedi the worse star wars movie or rise of skywalker?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Tlj was so bad I didn't bother with ros

The Last Jedi was a bad Star Wars movie. But not necessarily a bad movie in general.

Rise was a horrible movie period. I couldn't get past the first 30 minutes of it.

Probably RoS.

TLJ has some really good moments, and probably would have been better received if it was the last installment. But it doesn't spend much time building any lore to get us to care about the new cast, and finalizes way too much of the trilogy's overall plot.

RoS felt like they were scrambling to salvage what was thrown aside in the last one.

tlj was the worst star wars movie ever? I didn't really like it either. Liked the force awakens a lot

The Last Jedi had no business being as bad as it was considering it had an okay setup with TFA. RoS was at least more understandably crap since it had little to salvage.

iirc rian johnson directed it. Dont' really like any of his movies. Abrams is better, really liked tfa but didn't like rise of skywalker at all and he directed both

I go back and forth between the two

That Sith Dagger scene is absurd

While I didn't like Last Jedi, it did have a few very cool moments in it. Rise of Skywalker was an entirely forgettable movie.

Overall, the ST ended up being an uninteresting dud. Lucas probaby should have made that in the 90s/00s instead of the prequels.

which movie? thought both were very forgettable

Solo was worst, if were including stand-alone and excluding the Ewok films

Both were horrendous but ROS is much worse. JJ doesnt make movies. he makes collages of movies.

TLJ had interesting ideas, bad characterization, and bad writing.

RoS had rehashed ideas, worse characterization, and stupid writing.

Also TFA was the "best" of the sequel trilogy while also being terrible.

I thought solo was a really good movie. Though it did really bad box office. Like it a lot better than rogue one. That one i hated except for the famous ending scene.

I enjoyed Solo except for a few bad choices.

I was the opposite - enjoyed Rogue One and hated Solo.

I genuinely liked TFA. I didn't think it was spectacular, but I liked the new characters and I liked the approach with the story. I was optimistic in what they did with it.

And then the next one came out, and we got...like, zero character development, several major deaths, and a filler casino planet arc.

The good thing about RoS is that they had enough sense to keep the 3 new heroes together for a while.

TLJ had a few high moments spread among a sea of crap (the whole casino sequence was a giant waste of time that was so badly executed).

RoS' lows didn't get as low as TLJ's lows I felt, but it was just nothing but lows after lows.

Attack of Clones, TLJ and RoS for me are the 3 worst in the main series with all 3 making a case for being the worst movie.

Rise of Skywalker is, and I am not exaggerating, the worst movie I've ever seen in my life.

I've seen all the movies and watched some of the TV shows like mando. So I'm like 7/10 in my interest.

Last Jedi's theme of "kill the past or embrace it" is compelling and a bit meta. Would have been interesting to explore more in the sequel.

Rise of Skywalker is the worst Star Wars movie.

However, The Last Jedi did more overall harm to Star Wars.

Im not a fan of TLJ, but RoS was so much worse
that I dont see how anybody can sincerely ask this question.

Its like asking whether youd rather have a black eye or have your spine ripped out.
