The way that Palpatine went out didn't even make sense.
This guy who's supposed to be a mastermind, and has been planning this for decades...goes out via the same tactic Mace Windu used on him circa 18 years before battle of yavin? So not only did they put a character in the movie who should not have been in the movie, they didn't explain why he was in it - like THEY DIDN'T EVEN ATTEMPT TO DO THAT AT ALL - and then the things he did in the movie were just plain-assed stupid. **** Jar Jar Abrams. Dave Filoni spent more effort and imagination in resurrecting Darth Maul in a ****ing cartoon. |

I remember reading a reddit thread that ruefully regretted that Luke didn’t go The Force Unleashed at the end of The Last Jedi.
Since I’ve legitimately wondered how many would have preferred that ending. |

The sequel trilogy wasn't as good as the original but it had some good moments, and it was a hell of a lot better than the prequels. |

I think ROS just shat all over Palpatine's story arc.
They brought him back for hardly any action, didn't explain how he survived, and then reveal him to be Rey's grandfather? GTFO Also undermines Anakin's arc, too. |

Just got back from seeing it. It was fun, it was entertaining, it was a garbage story that seemed to be set out to cover up the garbage story of The last Jedi.

My buddy who is a huge Stars Wars fan and a commercial artist that saw the movie the day before it was released told me to stay away. Sometimes he gets caught up in the nit-pickery though. But he said the story is completely ****ed up.
I'll probably catch it when it hits Amazon for 9.99. |

So what Finn wanted to tell Rey the whole movie was that he's force sensitive.

Yeah this movie sucked. I know TLJ isn't popular on here, but at least Rian Johnson tried something and told a story that had some heart. This whole thing was just a response to the any fan boys flaming TLJ. Rey being a nobody was a great move that broke the cycle of heredity in the force that was way overdone. Abrams retconned it to appease fan boys. People bitched about lack of showy force powers so they amped the force up to 11.
The story made no sense, there were constant leaps on logic, and there was no real time given to any character or story element to develop. The most touching part of the movie was C3PO finally getting to be the hero and they even ****ed that up with a laugh line and then undoing it. Man I figured it would be bland and full of fan service, but I didn't think it would be easily the fourth worst Star Wars movie ever made. Solo was better than this. |

The plot was dumb af. The ending was an avengers knockoff. The last battle scene was the biggest joke of all time. It should’ve been an epic battle but just like snoke, done in 2 mins

I'm still just so annoyed by this movie.
It has some fun little things that make me enjoy about half of it. But the rest is just a giant hamfisted shit**** that totally invalidates any reason for the sequel trilogy to even exist. **** Disney and **** Jar Jar Abrams. |
