Also, I agree about Zendaya. I'm over her same character that she plays in every role. Felt that way after the first Spiderman.
I can understand the disdain for Zendaya playing Zendaya in everything she’s in. But I stand by thinking the characterization of Chani in the context of this story actually makes sense and is even an improvement on the source material. I’m not going to stan for her winning any awards for the performance but I think she does fit this particular role for what DV is trying to convey.

Somewhere between an 8.0 and 8.5 / 10. I think it's like the Dark Knight where the extremely cinematic nature of the movie is going to lead to an early onslaught over over-praise, but it will settle back down in time. I imagine this board has aged since TDK and won't jump me now like they did the night of TDK premier
Like TDK, I think this was a really good second film in a trilogy. Its legacy will be partly determined if DV can stick the landing in Part 3; I think TDK suffers in some ways because TDKR missed the mark. A good second has to be the glue between a novel first film and a satisfying third.

Well the primary problem with TDK were that it crammed in too many plots and didn't fully realize them all (yet it came to a conclusion on them all). Saying that now isn't controversial, but after a midnight showing on premier night? Yeah, I got some classic "SFP IS TROLLING US" melts 
We're all old men now, for the most part, so people are more calm with criticism.
I"m just over Zendaya. Chani was a little annoying as a character, but I get where they're going with it. There's major external an internal conflicts going on and it's a story about colonization at its heart. Creating the personal animosity and the love triangle fits with the drama (especially how DV sees Paul, who's losing his humanity in exchange for pragmatic acquisition of power).
