I rewatched rogue one and I off base in my hate. I agree with you there.i do remember this series IS child friendly and that might get in the way of things. The dialogue of kylo ren just seems uninspired and not creative - I connected more with Ian and Hayden’s back and forth more so and for various reasons I guess. I think another thing is the score.. it just seemed clunky and trying tooo hard to sound like star wars of past and instead I creating a new atmosphere. The movie felt way to long
People also said it was way darker and I didn’t get that vibe at all -shrugs- rogue one nailed that vibe

Sure, I just didn’t find it that fun personally.

I think it depends on the style.

Marvel films want us to believe that their stories are happening in the world at large, today. Unlike many people, I have issue with that in certain films.

DC films aren't happening in the real world today. They may take some elements but for the most part, it's a Comic Book world. That may be why people don't like them as much as Marvel but who the hell knows?

Star Wars had set a decent set of ground rules in The Original Trilogy. Rogue One followed those rules. The prequels kind of expanded upon those (The Rule of Two, Midichlorians, Virgin Births, etc.) but it wasn't too crazy.

The Force Awakens mostly stayed within those confines but eliminated The Sith and expanded upon the Empire's weaponry.

The Last Jedi? Holy moly.

But after today's discussion, I'm looking forward to seeing it again at 1:45 PST in a completely different theater. Hopefully the experience will be better.

And was I tripping but did that little boy use the force to grab that broom?

You might be right that Yoda knew the books were gone.

Yes

It does indeed! :)

I think that group of kids is supposed to be the next generation of Jedi.

Wtf did I just watch

The humor has always been juvenile.

I know, it'll take a day to process and develop an opinion with this

I thought there were a couple things I knew fans would hate but I'm surprised the reaction to the film across the Internet is quite this negative.

Who knew making a film which is pretty much a giant middle finger to hardcore fan's would piss off Fanboys.

I'ts been almost 24 hours and I'm still angry about this movie.

What the movie looked like to me 90% of the time.

ROFL

I haven't seen it yet, and will probably wait a week or two to go. After seeing reactions like this, my expectations will be so low I'll probably really enjoy it.
