1, 2, and 3, are elaborate pranks. 4,5,and 6 are great. Rogue One and Solo are best. 7 is okay, and 8 is hilarious and fun. 9 will be poo poo because the only thing worse than a terrible director is a butthurt terrible director who is pissed off that episode 8 poo poo right in his stupid mouth.

The only Star Wars movie you need to watch is the Holiday Special. It introduces you to all the important Star Wars lore, like how much Chewbacca's dad likes to jack it.

Honestly if they don't CGI Bea Arthur back to life in episode 9 I am going to put all my Star Wars figures in a burlap sack for like two weeks.

The only thing wrong with The Last Jedi is that Rian Johnson had to spend so much time tearing down all the terrible poo poo JJ Abrams set up, he ran out of time to add anything new.

Also Solo was a great space western ruined by turbo nerds pushed to the brink of suicide because the Millennium Falcon looked different. The IT dorks hugging it out at the water fountain scared off normal people.

And the loving Space Kamikaze scene was loving amazing.

I was being a little hyperbolic. Yoda burning down the Jedi church as a joke was one of my favorite cinema moments ever.

*And yeah, everyone including Mark Hamill being all like "That's not my Luke" Apparently never saw episodes 4-6.

characters talking about tearing things down doesn't mean that's actually happening.

Huhwa? I'm talking about how TLJ took all the Goofy rehash fanfiction style poo poo that Abrams was teasing, like "OMG who are Rey's parents???" and "Is Snoke the love child of Jabba and Vader???" and other assorted tired gimmicks, and broke all the stupid toys in JJ's Star Wars Toybox so that hopefully someone would have to put some actual thought into where the story should go. But now sadly Abrams is back and clearly thinking "Johnson hosed me. If Rey can't be the child of Greedo's widow and Yoda's ghost Then I'll just bring back the Goddamn Emperor" and the incoming fanfic tsunami gonna be so much worse than predicted.

In fact, I predict JJ will gently caress up 9 so badly that Disney trades Star Wars back to Lucas for a 12 pack of chicken soft tacos, and Lucas spends the final years of his life putting on surprise Star Wars puppet shows at random bus stops in the LA area.

Star Wars. If I wasn't between the ages (either physically or emotionally) of 11 and 14 when I saw it, it's poo poo.

I meant that sarcastically, but seeing it in print, it feels like a reasonable criticism.

Yeah people keep bringing up that as though its not bullshit. There was nothing in TFA which forced Rian Johnson to add a yo mama joke or write a 40-minute pointless B plot.

To be fair it had a very clear point, but it could have been made with less effort. It was also only eleven minutes of the movie.

I'm talking about the Finn and Rose subplot and the casino planet and the plot to get the hacker which goes nowhere. That was not only 11 minutes.

Me too. But you're right the part on the casino planet was 11 minutes, the whole thing was more like 17 to 25 depending on whether you're counting every second Finn and/or rose were on the screen.
