I think it made the movies better since they focused on characters, story, etc. |

Not sure if I can't get them to watch it with me again that I'll ever bother.

Same here. They like the originals, but don’t want to watch 8. They like the prequels a lot more than the last 2 in the series.

I prefer 3PO just start 9 waking up from a bad dream that was 8 and forget it happened.

Great read with Mark shitting on Johnson and how he took the character a totally different way than JJ intended. Frustrating to read how awesome 8 could have been.

Of course, but that was more of a comment of how the movie ended. The rebel survivors have nobody and fly off, Kylo is left to stew in his failure, and we get a glance of the kid using the force without knowing he's doing it, showing us a glance of the future to come. It had a very "finality" feel to it, for me anyway....

I'm really not a fan of different writers for each movie in a trilogy. How do you get any real continuity doing things that way? You can use different directors but the writing needs to be consistent. Johnson took everything Abrams did and threw it over his shoulder. I wonder if that was why he had Luke do that with the lightsaber.
To have a true trilogy you need to have continuity and either one writer or a small team of writers that collaborate throughout the trilogy.

Anakin hasn't been born yet because of the alternate continuum. Rey dies at the end of the movie while fighting side by side with Anakin's Mother who''s a Skywalker Jedi Knight

Maybe they'll have Ezra and Thrawn show back up from their stint in the Unknown Regions, and Thrawn teams up with Kylo while Ezra finds Rey. Or maybe Ahsoka shows up and mentors Rey. Or maybe none of it. At this point, I think they have to time hop the story 5-10 years into the future to set up some happenings that lead to a story that JJ can mold that allows him to sidestep TLJ as much as possible. |

Luke is going to be used as a symbol, and the rest of the galaxy is going to rally.
Pretty basic stuff. |

I’ve never been so pissed walking out of a movie as I was TLJ.
Couple that w/ Johnson’s idiocy on twitter and its been enough to make me not spend another dime on SW (haven’t seen Solo). Disney and KK literally killed the golden goose. |
