I can’t wait for billions of dollars and countless man-hours worth of painstakingly made forgettable cgi trash to tell me to buy more Disney products.

I also can’t wait until idiots on social media start telling me that seeing this movie and giving Disney money are very important political actions for the betterment of society.

It's less that I think they suck and more that I think it was silly that a moon-sized object got blown up right above them and then we see them partying with the main characters like giant metal shards aren't falling from the sky

star wars dude. everyone saw that death star blow way the gently caress up yet here’s an instantly identifiable part for a big finale set piece.

jj abrams is a terrible director and a terrible storyteller. he very much wants to be spielberg, but falls short in every way so he’ll just make mediocre genre pictures with established ips for the rest of his life.

What do you think is more likely with that arena sequence

- The jedi and the clones traveled separately, and just coincidentally the jedi all got to the arena like four minutes faster.

- They got there at the same time but the clone commander was a dickhead who intentionally let some jedi get shot before finally bailing them out.

it’s definitely the former dumbass coincidences drive the plot in star wars movies way more than any character action.

I'm just waiting for the animated feature length movie where Mickey Mouse plays Luke, Minnie plays Leia, Goofy plays Han and Donald Duck players Vader.

Shame the mouse didn't buy WB instead of whatever they last bought. Could have had Marvin the Martian playing Vader instead with his Earth shattering kabooms.

star wars is dumb as gently caress. there are plenty of things to dislike about tlj other than plot holes that broke everyone’s brain a year and a half ago so hard they just can’t let it go.

This is just a poor criticism, sorry. Star Wars has dumb things, but they are generally consistent with the internal logic of the universe and the context of what is happening. Nothing is SO BAD that it makes people's brains break for a year and a half.

Like you're basically saying there's no difference between movies with some plot holes and logic errors and movies that are riddled with them to the point that the audience's suspension of disbelief is broken 20 minutes in. It's not just 1 or 0.

why would chewbacca do a tarzan yell. he hasn’t seen tarzan.

also your angry internet friends don’t represent “the audience.” kids are the audience, and my dumbass little cousin loved it. the movie made plenty of money* and star wars will continue to inspire the sweatshop workers who make the toys.

That's fine but it doesn't mean it is immune to criticism.

There's a lot of movies that are box office successes but are not very good pieces of film and vice versa.


If that's your metric for what good means.


I'm not trying to say arghh no one can like or enjoy this movie.

Lol I am not arguing this movie is “good.” I’m arguing the entire franchise is stupid garbage, and angry adult star wars fans are bad people.

lol a guy pointed out a legit plot hole in the first movie and you immediately accused him of not watching the film, because you’re an rear end in a top hat.
