I like TFA alright as a popcorn action movie, but ROS fell into the same nostalgia trap as TFA, and on top of that it didn’t make any goddamn sense. Last Jedi had some issues, but at least it took some chances and had a cohesive narrative. This was just a hodgepodge of ideas JJ thought people wanted to see. At least he only threw in his patented lens flare once or twice.
Man, this just sucked. I’ll never forget the excited applause at the beginning and the feeble laps from a couple people at the end. That said it all.
Who tf wanted the Emperor in 2019? My eyes rolled on the opening paragraphs and I tried to just shut my mind up and enjoy the ride. Impossible.
The one cool thing they could’ve done was had Rey combine the 2 lightsabers to create a Jedi version of the Darth Maul. I would’ve forgiven a lot of bullshit if they just gave me that, but nah.
