I'm not so sure that was better than the prequels

I walked out thinking it was decent and that it just didn't live up to expectations. I woke up this morning thinking, "half of that movie was fricking terrible"

I put it right there with the prequels.

Exact same here. It gets worse the more I think about it.

My complaints are simple. I don't even care about individual bad scenes like frozen Leia.

Snoke - no explanation needed.

Rey's parents

Luke. This really is my biggest gripe. The only thing he did was as a hologram? Then he becomes a death as dumb as his mother's and memaw's? frick the writer.

I don’t care what anyone says, I’ll take a couple of storylines that don’t make sense over Jar Jar Binks 110 Times out of 100

The first seven movies were based around the Skywalkers. Now all of a sudden a Skywalker isn't the main character?

I understand Kylo is still in play but for how long? You just gonna get rid of him and move to another character? Makes no sense.

Worst character ever. I’m glad she died.

And yes, worse than Jar Jar.

This board isn’t representative of how people felt about this movie.

I’ve talked to around a dozen friends/family and everyone loved it except for one and that person didn’t like it because he was so twisted up about the SJW stuff.

I thought it was ok but dick milk scene and so many others were really dumb. Wasn't a very good star wars movie.

Same here. This arrogant count didn't trust anyone that served under her and treated them like shite. She would have been a terrible leader.

What movie that you saw that you loved it? You don’t like the side mission Finn goes on. That is nearly 1/3 of the movie right there. What they did to the character of Luke is beyond ridiculous. Luke would never do the things they portray him to do in the film. He would never activate his light saber on a defenseless person let alone his own family. Would never call his lightsaber a “laser sword”. Throwing his father’s lightsaber over his shoulder like it was nothing to him is another misguided attack on his character.
There should be intrigue I agree. That was why The Force Awakens had those questions after that movie. Snoke is deemed all powerful. Where did he come from? How did he become powerful? How is he completing the training of Kylo Ren? None will be answered now because he is dead on the weakest way possible. How could he have not seen or feel a lightsaber being turned and flicked on when it was less than a foot away from him?
There was no real space battle. The opening scene could have had that but it failed on many levels. The sight and use of a DreadKnaught is great. Then it was taken down by 1 bomber is mind blowing. Why did the bombers move slow? There was so much to dislike on the space battles and lack of punch they offered.
No light saber battle between Dark and Light!!!! How could they have possibly missed that part. Could have had an epic battle between Rey and Kylo and then Kylo and Luke. Nope did not have that. Completely missed that scenario.
Overall it sucked. That’s why people hate it.

Somebody posted that 66 percent of the movie is good so we should leave it alone and be happy and ignore the agenda and the serious plot to turn generations of young boys into subservient yes men who kneel before everyone. Equality isnt the aim. Superiority is the aim.

66 percent is a D, an F in high school.

That’s excellent?

I’m rooting for the Empire from here on out. The resistance can get fricked.

I loved it too. Probably the most satisfying ending in a Star Wars movie for me had me leaving the theatre pumped! Luke going out like a boss/the legend that he needed to be. The rebellion is reborn. Our new cast of heroes escaping on the Millenium Falcon. Quintessential Star Wars and and can’t wait for Episode 9!

The Reddit megathread is approaching 58k comments. The majority of them are bashing the movie and most of them don't notice and may support the SJW crap.

It was a bad movie.
