JJ better make 9 a ****ing apology tour for this shit.

Start of with a 10-20 back story on snoke and how he turned Ben solo

Mid way find out Kylo was lying about Rey's parents.

After that 9 will be a x10 better movie than this POS was.

Fine, we'll add a throw-away line about how stupid it is that they haven't launched thousands of TIE fighters. All through the movie there are absolutely insane events that are occurring because the script is so lazy and they skirt the issues with some slapstick humor or a dumb line.

Had such high expectations for this movie -- but starting to see that Star Wars has gone off the rails...

Yeah, that Dreadnought was supposed to be the equivalent of 5 miles wide yet they didn't have enough TIE's on board to wipe out 20 escape pods?

At least he could deliver his lines in a believable manner. I actually liked his last line a lot, but again it's sort of a summary for the whole film not really being all that relevant in the first place.

The whole mission to Casino planet was a complete waste of time and actually, as a Reddit contributor pointed out, it actually led to all the third-act problems the Resistance encountered. None of the side-quests were completed or helped advance the story in any way.

The whole "we're going to take the entire movie to chase the Resistance" was stupid beyond words.

At this point, I don't care. This movie did nothing to move the Star Wars galaxy forward. If anything, it took it backwards, like further back than TFA, which was a Beat-By-Beat clone of A New Hope.

We all knew what was going to happen in Rogue One and it was still ****ing bad ass to the bone.

This was an epic disaster. I might be lucky to match R1's box office.

I hope it makes less than Rouge one.

R1 was a much better movie even jokes felt less forced in R1 then this trash movie.

How many times did they have to try and use General Hux for comedic effect ?

What's even dumber is that they were conveniently close to a former Rebel base.

What are the odds?

oaklandhater · 12-15-2017, 02:28 AM

Rian's Q&A screening at USC tonight:

“what Rey now knows about her parents—well, what Kylo told her about her parents”

JJ can basically bring back whatever his answer is and just say Kylo was lying about it.

Please JJ un**** the Star wars movies again.

One good thing I will take away from this movie is I have no desire to see rian johnson's Star wars trilogy what so ever.

**DaneMcCloud** · 12-15-2017, 02:32 AM

This film makes Attack of the Clones look like Citizen Kane in comparison.

Whoda thunk?

I look over at my room mate and told him I would rather Watch anakin bitch about sand for 10 mins than see this movie again.

The jokes in this movie reminded me a lot of George Lucas' humor from the prequels. If something isn't quite working let's have some slapstick or a fart or something...

oaklandhater · 12-15-2017, 02:46 AM

I don’t want to spoil it. It’s not even DIRECTLY from STAR WARS. But the nine people in the Shrine premiere that got it howled. Everyone look closely tomorrow. And @rianjohnson confirmed it to me. https://t.co/FuRzKtZnfr
