The Last Jedi just positively ****ed the Skywalker Saga right into the ground. I can deal with the carbon copy that was The Force Awakens, but like I said, JJ better just crush it to redeem Disney in IX. Downside is that if he does, KK probably stays as long as she wants.

After having time to look at and process everything, I just came to realize that the new characters would never be developed in to anything meaningful, the writing was dumb as ****, and the creative well has run dry.
It's just a shame.

I don’t think there’s anything they can do to make this an interesting story arc. They need to end the skywalker story and either end the series(they won’t) or change owner ahip

I'll watch this thing just to finish this trilogy. After that, I'm officially done with Star Wars...a film series that had it's last good episode in 1983. **** the prequels, and **** all the shit since. TLJ tore it for me.

Rogue One is maybe the best Star Wars movie. It is totally faithful to the Star Wars ethos. If you haven't seen it, you owe it to yourself to do so.

And Kasdan needs to be executed for even allowing this horse shit to flourish under his watch. He had every opportunity to shape and move this thing in a direction that could be meaningful, and chose instead to let morons have the final say on things.
Inexcusable.

Keenan Allen again is weak in the big games.
Dude talks like he is Antonio Brown but only performs against crap teams outside of one game against the Chiefs. |

Nothing can be done. JJ has already proven that he sucks at this, Kasdan might as well have not even been involved, and the three top original characters are now dead, with the exception of CGI Leia.
No one gives a **** about Mary Sue because that character was written and handled so shittily, Poe and Finn have ZERO substance and development as characters, Rose just needs to ****ing die, Kylo Ren can't figure out what the **** HE is, and all that leaves is Chewbacca and droids who don't really "talk" and that's probably to their benefit this time around. **** Disney.

Hey, look, here's another aspect of the new movies that sucks. I hadn't really thought about it. But you're right. In the old trilogy the main characters (mostly) either grew as the show went on or were iconic and just revealed more and more depth to the audience. In the new movies they just flop around like fish on a pier until the credits roll. |

There was a lot of character development.
Poe learned to blindly follow his female superiors, even when they do stuff that makes no sense. (And still doesn’t) Rae has become more powerful than a Sith Lord over a few days span. Finn learned about what’s truly important: Love. Princess Mary Poppins ....errr....I guess she didn’t learn or grow for shit Grand Leader Snoke died. Probably the best character arc ever written Admiral Ackbar came full circle and fulfilled his destiny of becoming frozen fish. Luke has always been an unenthusiastic loser that always saw the worst in people until Rae opened his eyes. Wait, what? Yeah, this was a bad Star Wars movie. No direction and baffling story lines. |
