saw this movie yesterday, it was pretty bad, just a lot of outright poorly done moments. downloaded commentary track to see what ryan johnson has to say for himself.
oh I like Kylo Ren and Rey scenes, they had good chemistry and I felt invested in whether Kylo is going to flip
>>217008536Movie would have been good if it was just Rey and Kylo Ren. I have never given less fucks about anything than Poe’s retarded plan
Yeah, sucks. Looks grey and boring except for when it's trying too hard for le striking imagery and even then the sweeping visuals just remind you of how unaffecting the story is. All the creature designs are ass. The drawn-out premise of the sub-light speed chase through space where neither party can outpace nor catch up to the other is staggeringly uncreative and the most limp-dick central conflict a Star Wars series entry could possibly have. Rose kissing Finn against his wishes and Finn pining after Rey against her wishes are sad and pathetic and a bad example to set for young people.
why was kylo so wide in this
>>217008492there was no stakes to be had
>>217008492My Dad who is a huge star wars nerd brought us all to the movie theaters to see this after the force awakens.I felt really bad for him.
>>217010129Almost all the characters with lines are textually in mortal danger for most of their screen time. You not caring about that is a different thing to there being no stakes.
>>217008492As a movie it's not only the worst SW movie ever but one of the worst big budget Hollywood slop of all time. Now as a franchise killer and disneyshill suicide causer, it's a 10/10 one of a kind
>>217010244regardless, there was no stakes to be had
>>217010129>>217010297No shit anon, cows don't exist in the Star Wars universe
>>217008492Why was it so astroturfed? (((Critics))) were giving it 11/10, it’s one of the highest rated movies on RT. I understand why Black Panther was, but why this?
So why didn’t they hyperspace jump into different areas?
some beautiful scenes but really bad storytelling
>>217008492>downloaded commentary track to see what ryan johnson has to say for himselfYou're gonna get to the end only for him to reveal you've been listening to JJ Abrams this whole time.
>>217010129I think like 95% of the rebelion die in this movie
>porposely make the character look like a hunger games villain>make her sound annoying, like in this scene the direction for laura dern was clearly "be a bit villainous and annoying">"heh actually she had a plan all along and she also really likes Poe actually and not mad at all about the mutiny and she is also going to sacrifice herself"really hacky job
>>217008536>>217008694kys reylo scum
mmm whatcha say
>>217010311Fake fan. A nerf stake is a well-known dish in the SW universe.
>>217008492This was the single most damaging film for the entire franchise, maybe except for Phantom Menace. Which is saying a lot. It's really fucking bad and there were points in theater where I was legitimately questioning if what I was seeing was actually happening in a Star Wars film. Particularly the "yo momma" joke, casino planet stuff, and Luke dying for no real reason.
There also isn’t a single good action or battle scene. None in this entire trilogy really
>>217011572TLJ deserves more hate because George is just George he's not a good writer. But TLJ is so mean spirited snd snarkey and thinks it's doing us a favor by smashing lore and plotlines like a child smashing someone's sandcastle. It takes so much glee is destroying the solid albeit safe and kind of dull foundation TFA created.
>>217011572>there were points in theater where I was legitimately questioning if what I was seeing was actually happening in a Star Wars filmI felt this almost every scene. Leia in space, the bombing run where everyone blows up right away, the “uplifting” ending where the resistance consists of seven people, etc etc
I have never seen any of the new movies, and I never will. They. do. not. exist,
>>217011848This is honestly my relationship with Star Wars. To me the last film was in 1983, and the franchise ended there. Darth Vader did not need to be space jesus.
I didn't understand why they had to search for Spork when he died at the end of the previous movie.
