Your dad has been beaten down by being around women telling him what to do his whole life.

How is Rey in the Millennium Falcon, again? Thought she was onboard Snoke's command ship.
Didn't Hux say she escaped on some ship (was right after Kylo woke up)?



she escaped on Snoke's personal ship that was apparently docked near his chambers. She told chewy to stay away until she contacted him so we can assume that she contacted him after escaping and boarding with him then followed the beacon to Hoth 2.

Did you just get out of it? Read my post on page 4. I made this prediction for NIH yesterday (correctly), and I’m about to make it for you: you will hate it, or roughly from Yoda:

Just got out of the movie. Really enjoyed it.

One thing I didn't catch. When Kylo first finds out that Luke is a hologram, what does Luke say back to him before he says "See ya around kid"?

Like I said, I get some of the criticism with the Rose and Finn deal. You can still have the sentimental tie to her sister and the opening sequence without all the casino/code breaker bullshite. But the good far outweighed the bad for me. Driver and Ridley were top notch. I enjoyed the nostalgia of Luke and Leia.

Honestly, I didn't mind that very much. I was more bored with Leia and the resistance scenes. It went on for too long.

As I said with Bluegrass, think it through. The B Plot particularly.

You act like this is rocket science. Like I said, I get the criticisms. But some of y'all are so hellbent in convincing everyone else that this is The Room bad it's kind of sad.

And then sacrificed large portions of this for Finn and the Resistance. That terrible plot should have only been 20% of the film. Rey and Kylo should have been 80% of it. Rey has no active part in the finale, despite being the protagonist. Plus the cliffhanger of Dark Side training isn’t there at all.

You will hate this film the more you think about it.

Yes. Which makes no sense. Ask the kylo character...

"Luke tricked you, but he's dead...how do you feel?"

"So I'm the most powerful force user in the universe and every master I have had is dead?...not a bad day"

Saw it today.

7/10

Thought it was really good. Not great.

A lot of dumb moments. A lot of forced comedy that wasn't funny.

Basically the last half of the movie could have been the entire movie.

The Room is completely awful. The Last Jedi has something going for it that everyone agrees is amazing: Rey and Kylo Ren. Double down on that shite instead of lecturing me why rich people, the patriarchy, and jockeys are evil. If I wanted that, I’d read the Huffington Post.

Also Rey has nothing to do in the finale, which is a travesty. It takes elements from it, but they should have gone full Crossroads of Destiny with it. You can remove 50 minutes of this movie, and it’s far superior.

Wait. So is he not a hack anymore because he agrees with you or are you having to use a hacks review to support your opinion?

I’m saying that there are some low standards he won’t cross. It’s saying a lot. Like a mafia enforcer refusing to do something. He sees TLJ as a total abomination.
