"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.

I'll be in Tokyo for a week so I'll miss seeing it until then. I'm considering just looking up spoilers because it'll probably be impossible to avoid.

Anyone that's seen it, feel free to chime in whether you think it's worth holding out or just reading the spoilers. I'm generally fine with knowing the plot before a first viewing.

I walked away satisfied.  The only parts that really bothered me were

Spoiler
Super-Leia (though it shows how strong she is with the Force, now that Carrie Fisher is dead her "bigger role" that the scene appeared to hype is pretty much dead in the water and stands out as very "wtf" material), and the CGI chase scene when the po-po chased Finn and Rose.

I really liked seeing Luke again, but felt let down.  JJ said Mark Hamill's performance was "Oscar-worthy", but it didn't seem that way to me.  Mark pulled off a very serviceable Luke, but it's not award-winning by any stretch.  I feel like Adam Driver and Oscar Issacs have to carry John Boyega and Daisy Ridley on their backs in terms of the new generation's acting.

The visuals were great, the story-telling was pretty good compared to TFA, and--unpopular opinion--but the Porg didn't really annoy me like I predicted.  Sure they probably had a scene-too-many, but they weren't Jar Jar levels of awful.

I think I hate Finn. None of his jokes land for me and I find him to be a very boring character. I suspected it in TFA, but this movie just confirms my dislike of the character. I was perfectly fine with him sacrificing himself to destroy the budget Death Star, but nope that idiot Rose has to save him because fuck you.

Just got back from the kinoplex.

I really enjoyed it. A lot. A very weird film though so I can see why it's been so divisive.

I felt like all the characters were likable, even Rose. I was expecting her to be fucking annoying from her first appearance but she ended up being okay. Daisy Ridley's acting has improved. Still not great, but better than in TFA. Something I really didn't like was Benicio Del Toro's character, and that was more a problem with his weird stutter thing than his actual character. Other than that, everyone gave a really good performance.

The humour wasn't as bad as I was expecting. There were a couple moments where it felt out of place (odd quips during Rey and Kylo's conversations, the sad Porgs, a couple other things) but in general I thought it was fine.

Story direction takes an unexpected, but IMO positive turn. I like that Snoke didn't end up being the endgame big bad (although I would have liked to have actually learned what he actually was). Luke's final scene was nice. There were a few bits where I was thinking "What?" but they didn't detract too much from the experience.

Super Leia really wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I found Sliding Rey more silly-looking.

The Canto Bight plotline didn't contribute much to the plot, but I think the film was better for it. It was a fun sequence that gave some much-needed development to the sequel era, and ended with a really nice, hopeful moment. Could have done without the drunken alien thinking BB-8 was a slot machine though.

The action scenes were some of the best in the series, and the film had quite a few. The film in general looks very nice, save for a slight overuse of greenscreen.

Also, what was the point in making a CGI Yoda puppet rather than just using a puppet? Or was it an actual puppet that just looked a bit weird?

Overall though, I loved this movie. Right now I'd put it as my third favourite SW film, above TFA and below ESB. I may have to see it with again with other people next week so we'll see if that changes.

I'm gonna see it Sunday. That intermission thing is weird though. I saw Return of the King in theaters and it had no intermission. It was the extended edition too.

And wow lol, 57% audience score on RT. Then again Justice League is sitting at 80% LOL. I think I'll like this movie. I liked TFA. Seems like something may have happened in the film that has lots of people all salty.

I agree with a lot of critics that I still need to process it a bit more or see it again but it’s less of a “idk if I liked that or not” and more of a “idk if I hated that or not”. It seemed like every scene had something dumb that would take me out of it, like you mentioned. Every storyline was weak and uninteresting for me. I started getting invested when the twists started happening but they don’t really do anything interesting with them and the story is almost weaker afterward. So IMO it’s a bad Star Wars movie with some bold ideas that don’t really help it. I also felt like he kind of screwed over the writers for the next one. The characters are all pretty much in the same place they were at the end of the last movie but now there’s no potential for anything interesting to happen. They might as well had just wrapped everything up in this one.

I wouldn't say Rogue One was bad.

It has a nonexistent level of quality. I can't apply a "bad" label to it because there was nothing to the film.

I liked Rouge One. I think the prequels are pretty trash. CGI was laughable, acting was bad. Especially Annakin. IMO, TFA was the best Star Wars behind Empire Strikes Back. Now a lot of critics are saying TLJ is the best, even better than Empire. Something has people salty with this movie. Really divisive so far.

It's one of the most boring films I've seen, it's not good either

It's probably the only SW film other than AotC I have no desire to watch again. I felt nothing through the entire thing.

It pushes the sequel era more into being its own thing than being held down by the OT, with a lot of new, weird things. I love the direction they took with this film but for others I can see the change being quite jarring, or not what they wanted.

Attack of the Clones is my favorite of the prequels from a watching standpoint. It's so hilariously charming and bad that I can't help but love it. ROTS and TPM just bore me.

The new trilogy lacks a good villain, I think. The Emperor was the ultimate evil, you knew he was there pulling shit the entire time.


I do like Kylo Ren but a leading main villain he is not.
