I had fun, but dear God was that so dumb. It just felt like the sequel to a alternate reality version of movie 8 that actually set any of this up. I mean that opening scroll was doing some heavy loving lifting. It just felt so self-indulgent. It was kinda like the opposite of TLJ in that it was a completely paint by numbers movie that took zero chances and relied on some extremely dumb cliches, but flowed pretty well. It wasn't Phantom Menace bad, but that's not saying a ton. Probably Revenge of the Sith tier The Glumslinger fucked around with this message at 07:20 on Dec 20, 2019 |

I did actually like most of the stuff on Endor until Leah died. Then it got very dumb, very quick

Horizon Burning posted:i guess the argument is that disney deliberately undid the best film to please... uh... the russian bots who review bombed RT? Well all of those focus groups sure made a great movie, that's the common sense to when a movie gets written by committee, right?

Seriously, just let her go evil and then force Ben Solo to kill her. You needed that kind of personal conflict to try to tie it together. And then he can be the last Skywalker

I'm still annoyed we didn't get to see Rey force lightning either Kylo Ren or Emperor Palpatine. Like, you can't just drop that in there for a 30 takeout about Chewbacca's death and then not bring it back. Also, so Fin was gonna Rey that he loved her when they got pulled into the quicksand. And then they didn't actually follow up on him doing that later.

Palpatine can survive being in the heart of the Deathstar when it blows up, but Phasma died when she fell through the floor to a real one

I still can't believe Disney didn't have a plan for the trilogy. Like I get wanting to give director's some creative freedom, but to not have the overall shape and direction planned before you started just seems crazy. 3 JJ movies might have resulted in 3 unoriginal movies, but there might have been some kind of continuity throughout. Was Rian originally supposed to direct this one or was it planned as 3 separate director's, and then one dropped out and later Rian got fired for angering the internet?

So after 3 movies, the best scene was when the random Storm trooper yelled "TRAITOR" at Finn

remigious posted:To all the people complaining that Kylo Ren died, I’m sorry but he murdered his loving father. You don’t come back after that, especially in a Disney movie. Except he did, multiple times. He got saved from a deathblow with the bullshit force healing, and then multiple falls.

This script still feels like it has one too many plotlines in it, but overall I like it significantly more than what we got. Mainly because it seems like it is atleast trying to build on the themes of TLJ

Ingmar terdman posted:Yeah Luke not having a moment with Kylo as he pretty much promised was a letdown. Luke's role as written is such a first draft, just like every line Sheev has. Such a drag because you can usually count on the nutty space wizards on both sides to have some good material I do like the idea of him just constantly heckling Kylo when ever he is trying to concentrate or train or whatever
