Home video? How retro!

It's really not that bad.

The only super poor scene is the Fin and Rose part where they are about to be executed in front of hundreds of stormtroopers and then the ship gets wrecked and there's only a couple of troopers laying there. And there's the lame fight with Phasma, plus BB8 going Rambo. The whole thing is janky and ridiculous.


Pretty much everything involving Finn & Rose was garbage. It was a long, nonsensical sidequest where the *only* result was fucking up the Resistance's escape plan and getting maybe three-quarters of the remaining forces killed. Then, when Finn was going to go out like a hero in a kamikaze attack -- something that I was starting to respect the character for -- it gets stopped

Other than Finn & Rose, I really liked TLJ. Even Poe -- who seemed kinda vanilla and dull in the first movie -- wound up being pretty cool. It was a pretty fun movie. Shame Carrie Fisher died because she could have brought a lot to the last movie if things continued in this direction.

George Lucas is literally spinning in his grave right now


#hesnotdead


He died of a broken heart after TFA came out.

My favorite scenes are the Skywalker ones. His I don't give a shit anymore attitude is the perfect fit for a bloated and ailing franchise. It made it fun for people that weren't expecting anything overly serious and don't care if thier nostalgia is trampled upon.


tbh, all I could hear was the Joker whenever he talked.

Also Kylo Rens goal to destroy everything old is a not so subliminal joke. It's like we've got to put this severely beaten dead horse to rest by any means necessary.


Kek. Hadn't thought of it like that.
