This actually sounds like the literal worst fanfic I've ever come across, and yet you say "herpderp would be better than what we are going to get."

Like how fucking stupid are you? Do you not understand what Star Wars is? It's literally a love letter to the old adventure fantasy story. The only reason some of the movies end "with the bad guy winning" is because they are one part of a larger story.

If you don't like "Heroes journey in space" then don't watch the fucking movie, but stop complaining that it is bad, or not what you want, or that you could do better. Because it's not, your ideas are bad and you couldn't do better.


Dude you seen it yet?

Fanfic came true :rofl:

Best of the new series? Easily, but that doesnt tell you much.
Meh, i wont say it was bad, considering it had to deal with the fucking mess of TLJ. It was a vaillant effort, but honestly this movie was doomed before its production even started.

I don't want to say much because I don't want to spoil anything, but for a series that is immune to criticism and has missed more than hit it was a good one.

It hit all the notes of a good style wars movie without making a lot of the mistakes they've made. It wasn't boring or dragged on at any spot.

There was no Finn casino diversions etc.

The fact that people consider any of the prequels better than the new trilogy says a lot about how fucking stupid people are.

Most people who liked the prequels were easily wowed kids back then

Like me

The SW franchise in general blows dicks but the overwhelming power of corporate media has made it unavoidable, playing on the nostalgia value among adults and GFX among kids.

Lol this movie was all over the place, agree with several of the above it was the best of a weak reboot

But honestly this was never going to work and I think they did the best they could. Personally thinking about it idk what I would have done to save the plot after the disaster that is TLJ. Like bringing back palpatine was sheer desperation and it showed...but what were the options really given no major antagonist was built between episodes 7-8. End of a messy trilogy, and shows you can throw a lot of money at something but if you ignore core plot mechanics it’s still gonna be shit.
