I'm reading the comments here and the one thing I'm getting is the main ones that seem to be mad at this movie are the cats that seen more than the movies and read the comic, graphic novels, watch all the DX cartoon shows and play the games.

Some of these theories.... I have no idea who practically 90% of the shyt being referenced too. Who yall thought Snoke was? Who the fukk in that guy?

With that said.... I thought the movie was solid. Not sure why peeps complaining about the length..... shyt if you gonna pay $15+ for an imax ticket to see this and dont bring a date cuz that shyt dramatically doubles. This shyt BETTER be long aint no one trynna pay that much for a slightly over 90 min flick

Solid movie to me

The way Coli Militants described it, I thought Finn was going to be a huge let down. Militants going overboard as usual. I think the last movie established that Finn was going to be the “Han Solo” of the series. I mean Harrison Ford all but, passed the baton to Finn in the first film. Finn is not a Jedi. That’s not his role. Get over it. Maybe he’s Force Sensitive but, he can have a major role in the film without being a Jedi. He showed a lot more growth in this film. Finn’s entire M.O. is to run and get the fukk outta dodge. He’s not with the dying for the Resistance shyt. Yet, he decided to go on a suicide mission into a foreign planet to get the Codebreaker, then another suicide mission to break into the First Order’s ship to disable the Light Speed tracker and then in his biggest moment, he went completely against his earlier cowardice by being willing to kill himself to save the others/destroy one of Kylo’s ships. For a nikka that was saying fukk all y’all two hours earlier :skip: being willing to sacrifice himself is real character growth. He killed Phasma. Don’t care if it wasn’t a straight win. That’s hater talk. He is a valued member of the Resistance in terms of discussing strategy and leading the rest. His arc is about learning to be brave and he’s doing that. I expect more wins for him in the next movie. What more do y’all nikkas want :heh:

This movie was cool for me. It's better than The Force Awakens, but no way near better than Rogue One.

My main issue isn't so much Finn. I never had issues with the character and his character arc matured from the last film. My main issue, however is his subplot adventure as a whole. What the movie is entirely wrong at, I think the longest of the entire franchise and that in part of this completely wasted side story with Finn and the Asian chick seeking for the code-breaker or whoever the fukk Benicio Del Toro's wack ass character is. Nothing worked. It's overt liberal message kept on banging on its head and took away completely from the rest of the film. And the look, especially the whole Casino thing looked NOTHING LIKE STAR WARS but instead people in a costumed themed party featuring people in Star Wars masks at the Casino. The whole side plot is basically a Macguffin, because we are forced to invest in this only for it to become completely insignificant. They could of wiped that plot completely and the film still would of been exactly as is. The only reason, I feel, Rian Johnson had this sub-plot is to have Finn with something to do, and maybe end up being a bit heroic to which he does on several occasions.

As for the rest of the movie. I did have some nitpicks about those puppeted/CGI creatures that were obvious toy grabs and felt a bit too "Return of the Jedi-ish". Other than that, I felt the movie was dope to me. I loved the relationships and character growth between Rey, Ren and Luke. I love the fact that Luke after all these years is still a bit self-doubting and he still needs Yoda for wisdom. I liked the fact that it didn't go the cliché route and have Luke train Rey, rather he attempted to but got shook when he discovered her power and she ended up training herself. People maybe pissed by this, but I LOVE how quick they killed Snoke, because I never felt he was a good character to begin with and I couldn't careless for his background. I was rather surprised that Leia lives in this and wonder how they'll conclude her story in the next episode. Poe's bring groomed to become the leader he was destined to be, which is why it was necessary for his arrogance to be put in check. Heroics means shyt if it costs more lives than you attempted to stop. In fact, it was due to his arrogance was why the Resistance was damn near decimated. I enjoyed the little twist assuming it would do this and they flip it on you and I love the fact that there so much tension and danger you never know HOW it would end..... unlike many other super hero movies, especially the MCU where there's never a true sense of threat or danger.

My nicca "keep a shot in the chamber"

Well I will say this.... I love how the survivors came of their final battle battered, wounded and fatigued like they been in a war. Similar to all the characters in the Marvel movies unlike DC movies where the hereos just pose and dont have any wounds, scratches, or damage like there was never a true sense of threat, danger, and the villain was a pushover

I wonder if they killed off luke and overpowered leia like ibn martha so that the new jedi order would be like the Suffragettes. But leia died irl so it might have put a fork in that.

Falls in line with the neo feminist vibes coming from this movie. Disney taking cues from GOT and trying to make alpha female leaders.

They wanted him to be the second coming of Mace Windu, when that's clearly not his role

Yea... I'm not reading that either..... I just dont think "The Knights of Ren" were in this movie and cats are reaching a bit....

First of all they are "The Knight of Ren" not "The Knights of Snoke"

I would assume he's have his own protection squad, fukk he need Rens.... the main person he looked down on and shytted on thinking was weak.

Na
Movie was mediocre
Dumbest part was how they left a space battle to have a quick goofy jaunt at a space casino
More Kylo Ren will he or won’t he
Snoke is nothing more than a ugly plot device
So was the Emperor but I felt like he got to do more
Finn sucks
Ran away in the first movie and did it again this movie

Nah, half the movie was Rian trying to clean up JJ's mess. JJ went in and made a complete remake. Rian's job was to give the audiences something that would be interesting and a new take on the Star Wars saga. If Rian had played it 100% safe like JJ did y'all would be KILLING him even more.

He made choices and took risks and I think the franchise is better for it.
