After Luke's death I was DONE.


But the little ring on the kid's finger as the ending was so bad.

Seriously frick this movie.

It's a shame they wasted such great potential in Snoke, Rey, and Ren.

Talk about amazing potential to be some of the best characters ever and instead Snoke and Rey are completely forgettable and Ren has not progressed as a character one step.

frick this movie.
frick Rian Johnson.
frick Disney.

How is the frick did this movie make it through drafts of writing, studio oversight, producer oversight, and editing and no one saw of the insane flaws?

When this happened I held onto a slim hope that a badass lightsaber battle was about to ensue. Usually, even if the Star Wars movie sucks there's a good lightsaber battle.

Instead we got them fighting some guards, which was good but no duel. No Snoke vs Rey. Not even Rey vs Kylo or Kylo vs Luke. Does Rian actually know what fans want? At least JJ did

Rey looked awkward in that scene, extremely unimpressive light saber scenes.

If the lightsaber scenes are going to suck, at least make the story compelling (Luke vs Vader in ROTJ).

Sorry, but this movie felt weird, almost like it wasn't even Star Wars, but a show where all the characters knew they were in the Star Wars movie.

Rey discussing the force was stupid, simple, and not in the least bit interesting or mysterious.

The Sith vs Jedi, Dark vs. Light and everything in the movie related to the force sucked incredible arse.


What the hell did I watch? Terrible.

I'm not interested at all in where the story goes from here. Doubt I'll be watching the next iteration.

Here's an idea:

When the blueray comes out someone fan edit the movie.

The movie would be about an hour and it would go something like this:

Opening Space Battle
Death of Leia, simply cut out all the rest of her scenes. They're meaningless anyway.
Rey and Luke on Island
Ren with Snoke and Hux
Snoke rebukes Ren
Ren and Rey telepathy
Rey and Luke training
Hux tracks down resistance
The truth of Luke and Kylo
Rey in the cave
Rey leaves the island
Rey confronts Ren
Snoke dies
Rey and Ren fight
Luke confronts Ren and cut out Luke's bullshite fade into the sunset.

Movie ends

What was some humor you did like? I liked the porgs, island keepers, and when Rey "felt the force" when it was just Luke. Everything else was god-awful.

I groaned in the very beginning with the Poe phone call bs.

Porgs and nothing else

Porgs are the 3rd best actor in the movie

Ren at full strength was able to kill Snoke but couldn't hold his own against some random non force using soldiers?

He could stop and hold a blaster fire in mid air without concentration and had full use of force choking and force throwing.

Why in the frick was that stupid fight even a fight?

That scene would've been cooler of there were like 30 unexplained throw away red shits and Ren and Rey just easily and badass wrecked shop on them.

Whoever edited the trailers to this movie needs to get a raise for making it look interesting.

That's the problem. It was interesting.

There was a very interesting about 15 minutes buried in 3 hours of nonsense.

Snoke's interactions with Ren were great
Rey and Ren force connection was cool.
Luke's revel that he created Kylo was cool.

I laughed when that slice of rock that Rey cut with her lightsaber destroyed those aliens' cart. That was the only time I laughed in the movie.

I couldn't stop laughing about halfway through the movie when a character tried to convey danger to the audience.
We're not gonna make it.
We don't have enough time.
Is that the only ship?
No one can do that.
We're definitely not gonna make it now.

It was like a shitty version of Entourage.

Also, I laughed out loud at Snoke's bizarrely out of place decapitated head.

Good news..... At least Attack of the Clones isn't the worst in the franchise anymore
