Snow Cone Capone posted:bc the Jedi were dumbasses and assumed that since their way is the only way, "balancing the force" meant eradicating the dark side for some reason (the reason is they were dumbasses) that's because that's how lucas meant it because in the original trilogy there was no 'light side' of the force, 'light side' was an EU thing

Pimperor Poopatine has declared that he will only face opponents in combat when they have collected a set of 8 magic coins. Do our heroes Finn and Ray have what it takes to collect the 8 magic coins and free the galaxy forever.

piratepilates posted:ok skasion I have been an appreciator of your opinions for a while, and I just do not understand where you are coming from. what did you like about this movie more than both 7 and 8. I liked that the characters in it discuss their emotions and what they think is right to do. I liked that it put the main cast together and gave their characters clear motives and conflicts to work through. I liked that it addressed the fact that Rey is a hosed up petulant and violent person who has been coming from a bad place for most of these movies, and that it gave her a realization that she needs to improve herself even if she only sort of follows through on it, and also that it gave any explanation at all for her existence, even if it was “a dark wizard did it”. I really liked the emperor having a planet of robed mummy cultists who exist to evilly chant at him whenever he says anything, it was entertainingly weird and reminded me of the bit at the end of The Prisoner. I liked Driver’s performance a lot and his face turn really landed, which I had been worried it wouldn’t. He has done more to sell me on these movies than any other actor and I hope they bring him back for X, possibly with a ghost beard. I liked that Hux got shot to death for being a stupid bitch. I liked Zori and her relationship with Poe and I wished it had been introduced ages ago so that it could be developed. I liked the small character detail of Rey relating to the midget droid not wanting to be touched. I found provocative and interesting the (probably unintentional) implication that there will not be a new new republic or anything after this, the imperial throne is left vacant surrounded by ruins and garbage, no new Jedi academy, no new rebellion military, “just people” which could make for an interesting sengoku kind of setting for future stories. I thought the flashback Luke and Leia duel was well handled by virtue of its brevity: if it had lasted longer the weirdness of it would have been too much. In addition to all the contrivances and huge gaping plot holes the size of a star destroyer that everyone has already mentioned, I did not like the fake Chewbacca death, what a weenie-rear end move. Either have him actually die or don’t do that poo poo at all. On which note the 3PO getting reset thing is also pretty stupid. Its first milked for pathos then revealed as a gag. Shouldn’t have been done. It also had the benefit of being preceded by 2-4 lovely movies to lower my expectations as opposed to a smaller number. skasion fucked around with this message at 01:07 on Dec 21, 2019 |

You know after this movie was released I'm really disappointed at Disney breaking their promise and giving us more jedi films. You said it was the last one 2 years ago, smdh.

Gaunab posted:Were people fans of the kiss between Rey and Kylo? That felt really shoehorned in. its fine. the sexual tension between Rey and Kylo is one of the most important elements of TLJ and people responded very positively to it by and large -- whatever people complain about in that movie, it's usually not that. so they play it up in this one and there's even a recurring gag (a lot people seem to have mistaken this for an unresolved subplot) about how Finn wants to confess his feelings to Rey but he keeps getting prevented from doing so.

To quote my other reply I didn't like the last jedi and found the sexual tension between Rey and Kylo dumb but I know how "shippers" like to turn sociopathic monsters into troubled bad boys in need of love. Kylo should have kissed the emperor instead.

Hey Anakin it's cool how you sacrificed your life to save your son and kill the Emperor. Oh wait, nevermind, your son tried to kill a child and also the Emperor is still alive. LOL gently caress you.
