    That fight with the red guards she clearly looks like an unpolished fighter, and wins her fights more out of cleverness and resourcefulness than by simply outfighting the guards. She only beats Kyo Ren in TFA because he took a ing bowcaster shot to the stomach beforehand.

    One cannot separate "cleverness and resourcefulness" from "experience and skill." One naturally leads to the other. There was at least some justification for her defeat of Kylo in TFA, but why is she able to keep up with him, and arguably outperform him, in the fight with the guards despite having next to no experience? The movie had a chance to show Luke training her, and she was on that planet with him for almost two ing hours, but it didn't. And it doesn't matter either, because practice and experience mean nothing if one is strong in the force. It doesn't matter if the guards are the best of the best with years of experience; she can wipe the floor with them despite barely ever using a sword before.

    That film is frminazist , emasculating piece of .

    Also, RIP Mark Hamill, Disney is going to shoot him after he clearly expressed how much he hates this movie.

    Yes, TFA was a rehash, but at least it was a nice hommage to the original trilogy and it was fun.

    Rian gotson clearly hates the Star Wars universe.

    Also, I really liked Hux in TFA.

    10 minutes into the Last Jedi and he becomes a re ed goofball comic relief.

    Yeah, how the did Finn drag Rose all the way back to the fort so fast? And why did the bad guys let him?
    Details. They just gloss over them, willy-nilly.

    What the was Disney thinking by giving Rian Johnson so much creative control? The last two mainline Star Wars movies were obviously written by two different people with almost no overlap creatively whatsoever. JJ Abrams set up several things in The Force Awakens--with no payoffs written in advance--and Rian Johnson basically, "Nah, all of that." Johnson took Abrams' vision, crushed it, and then handed the pieces back to him.

    I really am curious how Abrams will respond.
    Rian Johnson is a snowflake . Him ing it up was inevitable.

    And there are even more small minded slobs with an internet “opinion”. You appear to be one of them. I will run mental and physical circles around you. And I will put my money where my mouth is any time you’re up for it. Something along the lines of an all day physical test followed by a MENSA exam. Bring cash. I don’t take checks.I’m a designer that is currently revolutionizing the industry I’m in. I’m also a recently retired professional motorcycle roadracer with nine championships, I can’t remember how many wins and seven lap records to my credit. I’ve also raced the Isle Of Man TT. Go ahead and call me a dim witted got. I can’t imagine what that makes you in comparison. A Ti ladyboy with a learning disability?Get off your high horse. Real men have real confidence, that doesn’t need to be bolstered by ting on people.

    So they'll go out of their way to do nothing that was expected on purpose as to not give in to the fans, but here comes the gay Finn Poe romance because "it's what the fans wanted."

    And they'll claim they're gay after their characters are no longer relevant.

    I legit hope the book fixes some of these issues and that's why it's coming out so much later than the movie. For as long as it was, there just didn't seem to be enough time. People say this movie did a good job in setting up the next, and I can't really agree there outside the first-level plot of the "Resistance" having to get a comeback win against the First Order. With how much they had to do to set-up this movie (like saying the FO apparently shrugged off their previous defeat and was dominating more than ever), they probably could have just gone straight to IX from VII with only that intro scroll and a couple of minutes of exposition to bridge the gap. In contrast, II was essential from getting from I to III.

    You could give the exact same criticism about ANH/TESB

    The continuity is crap, imo. As far as I'm concerned, I'd have been better off leaving off on the relative high of Force Awakens, just skipping Last Jedi and watching what's next. Nothing about this movie was worthwhile or pivotal. And of course they managed to kill off another legacy. They'd have been better off just renewing the Hans/Luke sh** from the start, honestly. You could feel their onscreen magnetism that others didn't have. And people just always figured it was all about the new age nuance. No, they had an awesome original cast that runs rings around everything since.

    Have you seen the video showing he might have not even known they were going to kill him? His interviews going into the premier verses his at ude after is a complete 180.

    Hey, at least we have the third film to look forward to. We might finally learn who Rey's parents are, see the benefits of her training from Luke, Snoke's background, and the role Luke will play! Oh wait, The Last Jedi took a all over all of that, so all we have now is Rey vs Kylo Ren, even though she kicked his ass already.

    Get ready for Rey to continue to be perfect at everything always and for several pointless sideplots that exist solely to give Finn, Rose, and Poe something to do (or not do). As for Ben Solo, who cares? He is so inconsistent that it doesn't even matter what happens to him. He adheres to no logic that I can understand, so a redemption arc would weightless.

    I agree.

    This Luke was too emo and too much of a pussy. The young Luke was all in on the Jedi are the defenders of the universe and will go down fighting mentality.

    Gotta get that money though.

    yeah, it’s not like people ever complained about OT Luke being a whiny emo. Gotta love revisionist history.
