Probably for the best. It was always a bit fanciful that Disney would give them the kind of free reign that they enjoyed from HBO.

Film getting mediocre to poor reviews.

Not really surprised. Never looked for a moment that it would be a good film.

People who didn’t like TLJ will probably love it.

It’s total and utter fanboy reassurance from what I’ve read

by RealGunner Wed Dec 18, 2019 8:03 pm

It seems like even the fanboys don't think it's great

The Last Jedi reviewed very well and that was hot garbage.

I don't think reviews mean anything, be it positive or negative.

It's underrated how corrosive Disney's influence in the modern world really is.

by Freeza Fri Dec 20, 2019 3:43 am

If people were upset with TLJ and they love this one I'd be absolutely flabbergast.

Most uninspired franchise filmmaking I've seen in a long time. JJ Abrams truly is terrible. He has no spine or original idea of his own and I've finally seen the light about him.

This certainly was a rehash of Return Of The Jedi, actually it rehashes Empire Strikes Back quite a bit too. The difference is you cared a hell lot more about Luke-Leia-Han than you will ever cared about Rey-Finn-Poe. Poe and Rey actually meet for the first time at the end of The Last Jedi so its pretty hard to care.

What this trilogy needed was a director who would be involved in all three films. Really hope Disney learnt their lesson and does this for the new trilogy so that does not turn out to be an incoherent mess too.

Anyone else have absolutely no interest in watching this? I find it very hard to care about how this trilogy ends. Will probably stream it in 3 months or something

Same boat

by Freeza Sun Dec 22, 2019 5:59 pm

It’s not good at all, so save your money.

But the again. If you like horrible filmmaking with nonsensical, overstuffed plot it might be for you.

The dude I went with called it the best Star Wars movie since 1977 and I almost slapped him

by RealGunner Sun Dec 22, 2019 6:00 pm

If Freeza is calling it bad then it really must be bad ffs

I’ve loved 2/5 of the new films hmm

Didn’t care for the others

Thinking about it I actually only love 4 out of 11 of the films. Not a lot from a fan.

Rise of Skywalker felt like a real conclusion to the saga for me because I never want to watch a Star Wars movie again.

Havent even seen episode 8 yet.will get around to it eventually. No excitement for it.

Rogue 1 >>> every star wars movie. That was the only one I loved.

by Kick Thu Feb 13, 2020 1:21 pm

Seeing as none of my family care about star wars anymore I am going to write my thoughts here (yes I am only now getting around to watching it.)

Spoiler:

I'd watch it again, mostly because I just love star wars.

by Vibe Thu Mar 26, 2020 5:42 pm

Finally got around to watching.

And people thought the prequels were bad. Haven't got the willpower to review. Maybe kids will like it. Fucking Mickey Mouse. You could tell Mark Hamill was dying inside filming every scene.

I liked the prequels myself. Jar Jar Binks shits over this

by McLewis Fri May 01, 2020 2:11 pm

The current arc of Clone Wars is among the best in the entirety of the Star Wars canon. It's the final arc of the show so that's expected, I suppose.

Last 3 episodes have been superb. They are instant classics.

by McLewis Wed Dec 02, 2020 2:16 am

Anyone see the latest ep of the Mandalorian?

If so, thoughts?

How much are they going to milk this finished franchise

by McLewis Fri Dec 11, 2020 11:37 pm

It's Disney.....so for every penny it's worth.

And I'm going to watch probably all of it Laughing

Finished? Not even close imo

The sad part is how little they're doing with it so far. But I like a lot of these moves.

Still too many old-stories and re-threads and still no original jedi story
