Star Wars Episode 8 The last of us
« on: December 14, 2017, 04:18:05 PM »
I just finished watching the new Star Wars.

In a spoiler free sharing of general thoughts on the movie, it was less of a rehash than the last numbered one. But it was also generally less entertaining.

What are everyone else's thoughts.

I accidentally ran into spoilers on reddit :/ what was there looked interesting

Be careful on the net!

Hopefully episode 8 is better than force awakens, which was a fun movie but didn’t do anything new, with a really boring main character

Better in the sense that it is more original. Yes

Better in a sense that it is less boring? No.

I don't care about the new characters and the charm and magic of Star Wars seems missing from this movie,

They need to put Rian Johnson in a rocket and launch that prick into the sun for what he did here.

It was a beautiful mess. Laura Dern with purple hair. Kylo pecs. Alien tit-milk. Beautiful mess.

I thought it was just ok.  I think I liked Force Awakens better.  I don't like how they just killed people off.  I'm actually growing quite tired of people being killed off in movies, just so the threat can seem real or whatever.  Some don't barely even get a mention after they die, like Ackbar.  And maybe one of the only new characters I actually care about, Snoke, doesn't get any backstory.  At least, not yet.  I want to know more about him, what was he doing during the earlier episodes, is he a Sith, or a Dark Jedi or what?  Where does he fit in all this?  He is the one that seems like the real threat, not Kylo.

I was pretty disappointed with it.  Force Awakens was much better.  Personally I'd put this at the bottom of the list of Star Wars movies.

Can't be worse than ep 1. Nothing is.
