He's an alt-right Nazi. Dude is all about bringing up Mein Kampf and laughing at it because he wants to recruit unsuspecting young guys into their internet cult. That's kind of their whole thing.

So I kind of loved the movie, but it was insanely stupid. I was fairly critical of it early on, and found so much of the dumb poo poo comical that at some point my brain snapped and I wound up just rolling with it and loved it. gently caress yeah, there's a billion death stars now, oh hell yes Rey is a Palpatine, gently caress it, sure!! Like I cynicismed so hard that I rolled over from negative back into positive. It's definitely not how I wanted the movie to be, or how I wanted it to end, but once I accepted that it was just going batshit crazy I stopped caring and enjoyed going along for the ride.

Like, I get why everyone hates it, and I don't blame them for it at all, but for some reason my brain loves it for all those reasons. It's not quite the same as enjoying something like The Room, I can't quite explain it. I think this movie broke me.

Same. I enjoyed it quite a bit. I don’t go into any Star Wars movie with expectations of some amazing plot or acting. I try to watch them through the lens of my 6 y/o self, that fell in love with the series when my pops took me to see Empire. Any adult going to a kids movie expecting The Deer Hunter or Raging Bull is just setting themselves up for disappointment.

ETA: Babu Frik is cool and good.

Now that I think about it... it is a bit weird that Ben’s grandpa killed Rey’s grandpa, only for Rey’s grandpa to somehow come back to life for Rey to kill this time. Hrm...

Seems fairly obvious he's mocking people who think engaging with Nazi ideas to "debunk" them is a mark of enlightenment rather than just dismissing those ideas out of hand because they're loving Nazis?

Like it wouldn't surprise me if he turned out to be lovely but that tweet does not seem like evidence of it

Pretty much yeah. I've had about three days to sit on this movie. I've come to the conclusion this trilogy was somehow worse than the prequels.

The only stuff that exist in my brain is Rogue One, Original Trilogy, and Mandalorian. The rest is too far off the rails for me to enjoy.

Again, Isaac owns. I remember a post about the stars’ regimen to get ready for the movies. Boyega and Ridley are working out hard and Isaac is stoned eating cheetos with chopsticks.

of all the things in the movie they could complain are too coincidental, they go for 'the protagonists find the corpse of the guy they're looking for in a dangerous cave right next to where he parked his spaceship'?

Did Space Chevy make a line of hood ornaments to show off whether you belonged to space jehovah's witnesses or to the space KKK?

Movie would have been way better if the plot was about Palpatine trying to get grandparent custody rights to Rey so he could teach her how to play baseball

Oscar Isaac owns and I love him in Ex
Machina. But why would he ever want to touch Star Wars again after TLJ when his character was imploded into nothingness? Don't loving blame the dude. He deserves to move as far away as possible from this lovely franchise.
