  2. Well, the fans pissed by Last jedi are not butthurted, because there were unexpected changes. They are pissed because, the plot o the movie is **** and the everything happening on screen does nto make sense: 1) Rey as a character is a wonder kid. She defeats Kylo, she defeats Pretorian guard, she even beats Luke! With zero training. She can use the force and do everything right without any effort. When there is no risk and no cost in doing it, it is boring. 2) The whole plot with chasing rebel fleet is bullshit. They could jump out of hyperspace from another side, so they could screw the fleet between two destroyers. Or they could deploy TIE squadron to shoot them down. 3) First Order is weak. They are just a bunch of idiots unable to use the power properly. Where are unbeatable characters like Vader, Thrawn, Tarkin etc. 4) Snoke / Kylo story is too weak. The whole killing point is too vague and too fragile to be successful, or Snoke is far weaker than Emperor and vader was. 5) If Poe was told about the escape plan (why he was not, I do not understand), than he would not plan to send finn and rose to that casino planet and that would not result than into pointless killing of escape pods. 6) Battle on Crait is again military ****. Why the **** those AT-MT gorillas did not shoot down Finns speeder? How Rose managed to get back in time to save Finn, why she was trying to save him in the first place when this would kill even more people and finally, why the were not shoot donw by troops/tanks when they crashed down? 7) What is the opening point for eiposode IX? The movie felt like final episode, not the middle one, there is no open plot. And finally, the issue I personally have with the movie: The disgrace they made to Luke Skywalker and mainly to Mark Hamill himslef.Everyone knows, that Carrie was using drugs and being little bit crazy and that Harrison did not like star wars fans at all. But Mark Hamill was always the one visiting cons, speaking to fans, loving the universe they created 40 years ago. Then he was lured into this bullshit movie, he naturally could not say no to playing in it (because whole world would hate him) and then he was forced to play his life-defining character in a way, which he was not comfortable with, he did not like and he did not approve and understand. And he even did not receive any dignity in death on screen. He jsut passed away like some tired old hermit. That was ******* worst thing I ever seen on screen, noone deserves this. He warned us several times, that this movie is **** even he does not like, we should listen and never watch.

  3. People have the right to fall in love with the movie, totally hate it and anywhere in between . People also have right to argue and debate why they don’t agree with above opinions. No one however has the the right to ridicule or shame others in regard to their opinion .

  9. Sorry, I'm gonna be "that guy" for a moment here: I see these complaints all over the internet and I just disagree with every single one of them as they're mostly answered within the movie and cleared up in a second viewing, if not during the first: 1. She doesn't "beat Luke". She beats an old man. Luke isn't using the force and Rey is. Also, If I recall correctly, Luke blew up the Death Star using the force about a day or two after meeting Ben Kenobi. The force is guiding her, just as it guided Luke. 2. Ships can't jump to and from hyperspace within such short distances without causing damage or death. They're also toying with the Resistance. In fact, THEIR PLAN ACTUALLY WORKS until Kylo fucks up and lets Luke get in his head on Crait. 3. See above. The First Order would have destroyed The Resistance were it not for Kylo Ren. 4. Snoke IS weaker than the Emperor/Vader. He is not Sith. If we are to assume that the Sith are the most powerful evil Jedi in the galaxy then Snoke does not hold a candle to them. 5. Poe was not told of the escape plan because he had just disobeyed direct orders from Leia mere hours earlier. Also, the whole theme of the movie is failure. Poe's failures. Luke's failures. Finn's failures. etc. YODA SAYS TO LUKE THAT STUDENTS MUST LEARN FROM FAILURE AS THAT IS THE GREATEST TEACHER. 6. Again, see Kylo Ren. 7. If this felt like a final episode to you then congratulations. It's actually quite open ended IMHO. There is a spark of a rebellion again in the galaxy. General consensus is that episode 9 will open several years later with the rebellion picking up support among the galaxy and perhaps Rey finding new students to teach with the books she scavenged from Ahch-To. 8. Mark seems content with how his story played out after coming to terms with it. I don't see it as a disgrace. He isn't Jesus Christ. He is a man who had a moment of doubt and then his whole world crumbled around him with the destruction of the Jedi Temple. Rian also had to create a reason for why Luke had exiled himself. What would you have done in Rian's place given where JJ Abrams left things at the end of The Force Awakens?

  10. You guys are trying to find too much logic in a film series that was found off showing the impossible and blowing everyone’s imagination. If you want a realistic Star Wars film then may god have mercy on your soul. With that in mind I’ll leave this here for you realists to reflect upon.

  18. The Last Jedi is bad because the X-Wings have wings. They're in space, hello??? Space is a perfect vacuum, and there is no reason why they would need these to keep themselves suspended without gravity.

  19. Believe me I don’t think the film is perfect but the amount of complaining over trivial points is mind blowing. First time around with EP7 everyone complained that it was too simple and familiar and now with this people are saying that it isn’t Star Wars because of how different it is. People need to take a step back and just be happy that we get anything at all. If you don’t like it then vote with your wallets. They all can’t be aces my friends.

  31. Rey still beats way more experienced people than her easily. In New Hope Luke is clearly shown out of his element in the dog fight. He needs Biggs, Wedge and Han to save him and while his one shot that he is already good at is guided by the Force, Rey is possessed by contrast. Mary Sue indeed. The First Order “plan” only worked because of a highly coincidental sell out by DJ. And mini hyperspace jumps are well established as being possible. Even if they wanted to avoid any danger. A bunch of ships could jump away, then jump back in front of them since they know where they will be. This plan was about as smart as Hitler letting the Brits escape Dunkirk. As you say, Luke is an old man and should not just be learning that failure is a teacher. He figured that out big time in Empire Strikes Back. i dislike how these movies have undone the progress of the main characters from the OT and put them where they were at the start. Leia running a rebel cel, Han smuggling, and Luke being a whiner. When we saw that Luke was exiled in Force Awakens and a glimmer of why, I don’t recall anyone being offended at the time. I’m sure most of us could imagine reasons why he would do that. I doubt many came up with curling up to die. We were likely expecting a plan like why Obi-wan and Yoda were hiding. Off he top of my head, Luke has a vision of the future of a powerful apprentice seeking him out and is waiting for it to come true. I applaud the effort to be different, especially after the Force Remakens, but being different is not a guarantee of being good. In this case the blemishes overwhelm the successes. There was much risk taking I enjoyed, but the whole does not hang together, especially with Luke.

  34. I’m just saying the whole complaining about the fuel situation and being able to track people through hyperspace is tiresome and old. The entire galaxy that these films are made off of is fictional so how can anyone know what is realistic and what isn’t? Do you own a gigantic spaceship that flys through space? If so what kind of fuel does it burn and what kinda MPG does it get? These films were primarily made to entertain children and adults alike and expand our imaginations. Children enjoy them for what they are meanwhile a good chunk of the self entitled adult base thinks they know what is realistic in a 100% fictional galaxy and what isn’t. Instead of nit picking every little plot point that you don’t agree with just enjoy it for what it is. Be thankful that we have anything to watch at this point. If George was still steering the ship we’d prolly only have an animated show on CN at best.
