Star Wars: the Last Jedi reviews so far:

IGN - 9.7
Screenrant - 4.5/5
Slashfilm - 9/10
Empire - 4/5
Digital Spy - 5/5
The Guardian - 4/5

I just hope that square-headed dork, Rey, gets her head chopped off by Kylo. That, or she gets seduced to the Dark Side. Thats the only time I will cheer for her, cuz I hate her so much, just like I hate that fat sloot, daenerys from Game of Thrones.

Many reviews say AVOID spoilers at all cost cuz theres a shocking twist that will divide the fans. And that its betrer you watch the movie not knowing what it is.

I have a feeling that Rey is Luke+Leah's child, and was given away due to the shame. He plowed her before they knew they were bro and sis.

I can see this happening, but at the same time, i'd be upset since (to me) he lost any hope of redemption after he killed his father.

How would you make the audience like him after what he did in TFA?

From now until Thurday I'll have to go dark from the internet. There are already a lot of youtube thumbnails on the home page giving subtle hints at spoilers, and its for the best since it is finals week for me.

Well to be fair, Darth Vader redeemed himself in the end, even after killing those young jedis. So maybe not full redemption, but do some good.

The one thing ireallydon't want to see is Kylo redeem himself ala Anakin. I don't want to see it in this movie nor in 9. It would completely kill/cheapen killing Han

true, but it wasn't a reversal of roles like Vader becoming good and Luke turning to the dark side.

I thought it was fine. I was thoroughly entertained by it. But the misc as usual bitched and moaned about SWJ stuff like female leads and the fact that it was a "rip-off" of A New Hope....and they kept parroting that as if they figured out something noone was aware of which implied Disney was being lazy, When i'm pretty sure it was intentional for the movie to draw parallels to ANH.

I think it was average because Kylo is such a terrible villain. Otherwise, it was a quality film. Probably my 5th or 6th favorite tho, tbh.

pretty plain to see Disney played TFA safe because they had a lot riding on it. They had plans to make 6 movies before TFA even came out.
They needed to please old and new fans.

After the success of that, plus being able to gauge fan reaction with the darkness of Rogue 1, I think we can expect a darker take on the movies to come along with more creative liberties.

or we could all just be cucked

SWNN Review: 98/100

As you enter the theater to see the movie, dare yourself to be okay with letting go of what you’re used to and accepting the unfamiliar. Let Rian Johnson take you on one of the most story-rich, complex, exciting adventures we have ever seen!

The Last Jedi has a place for fans of all ages, and all trilogy-allegiances, including die-hard original trilogy stalwarts, prequelists, and those who have just gotten on board! In a world where divisiveness is often the immediate pathway, Rian Johnson has given us something that we can all proudly and collectively get behind in the Star Wars community, an absolutely masterful chapter in the Skywalker saga that ensures us the future of Star Wars is not full of hope, but assurance.

The Last Jedi is the BEST Star Wars movie since The Empire Strikes Back. Thank you Rian Johnson.

I came out of the cinemas thinking its a ripoff of A NEW HOPE. Didnt blew me away, but its a very good movie.

Yeah I guess. I would really love for Rey to turn Dark, would be awesome cuz I dont like her character. lol

This. Though some reviews say its the darkest but also the funniest Star Wars to date. A good balance.

Taking any of those reviews srsly



And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his gods?

Rey can go sith and then both of them being sith would be alright. Nothing can compensate for Kylo going good.


But i'm guessing that's what will happen considering there is a "major plot twist"

strong f cking this....

between Thursday at 7:00pm and Friday at 10:30pm, my local theater is only showing 4 screenings of standard digital screenings.

u f cking wot m8?!

one of the biggest franchises in move history opening night has two showings. strong everything

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




What if Leia was impregnated similar to Shmi Skywalker?

Presumably Kylo is older than Rey...
Kylo has daddy issues because Han Solo was never around- always taking off.
At some point when Han is gone Han gets cucked by someone and Leia has Rey.
They send Rey off, as a child, to live alone etc.etc.

This could explain a connection between Leia and Kylo and help to explain why she is so much more powerful than Kylo.

in order for this to work, this would have had to been their idea before Carrie passed away, as she was said to have a large role in the 3rd film.

I definitely place it higher than the chit-show of episodes I-III
