They are usually right though... There was only one good star wars ever made... The rest are lame...

[phantasmagoria]

Hope I made it in?

Hah, I dunno, I actually did put DC on some artwork (the headphones the rebels wear in the salt flat sequence). I never checked if the painters actually used it.

After letting the dust settle, it's no Rogue One but the kids will like it. It's better than TFA.

i saw it

[Whiskey 7]

i saw it

Anything to add HM-PuFFNSTuFF?

I'll be catching a session next week as it is s school holidays here and I am trying to avoid the crowd/crush. I'll no doubt finish my Christmas shopping at the same time.

[losCHUNK]

I sawd it too

I liked it a lot more than TFA (wasn't a massive fan of the reboot) but I think Disney are thumbling a bit, there's a lot of bloat story wise with dead ends. It was kind of weird, really, it was a very good film and I don't want to hit on it too much cos it'd be extremely unfair when compared to a lot of shit released these days but it felt more like a film from the Marvel universe.

Star Wars - The Last Jedi

5/10

Fuck Disney

[Eraser]

Funny how people put this all on Disney (as a corporate entity) rather than the creative people involved

[MKJ]

Gotta be mad at someone for not catering to your very specific entitlememts.

[losCHUNK]

It's the Juggernaut now innit.

Didney is only part of the problem and it is an assumption but imo you can tell the teams don't get the freedom and I think that was a big problem with this film. The main plot was straight from a Star Trek ep (lazy writing?), the sub plots lead absolutely nowhere and a lot of stuff seems to be shoe horned in... 'We need a scene with this / we need that in the film / this is a must'. Visually it's stunning, the film is put together excellently but the writing, character development and story telling is just plain lazy and hackish resulting in a film that finds itself struggling to set up the next fight scene.

It'll still get a 7/10 from me like but overall it was a bit of a head thumper.

I never enjoy it as much the first time because I second guess and over analyze everything. My initial impression was pretty meh. Looking back though the entire thing seemed to be about failure and it mirrored ESB much like TFA mirrored ANH.

[HM-PuFFNSTuFF]

It wasn't very good was it. Some decent elements but on the whole it was very mediocre at best. It wasn't cohesive enough.
