The amount of hate this movie receives online is ridiculous.
Completely agreed, I must be in the minority since I loved it despite not being a hardcore Star Wars fan. I liked it a lot more than Force Awakens because this one at least tried to be fresh. It was not a perfect movie, to be sure, but it kept me guessing what would happen next the whole time. I can understand some being disappointed, but to the people saying it was THE worst film in the series: that's just absurd, is it not?
It is absurd. The mob mentality of the internet is clearly the worst aspect of it. I'm a pretty die hard Star Wars fan, and I just find most of the complaints the exact opposite complaints of The Force Awakens detractors. Bottom-line, some people will NEVER be happy.
You just don't get it. My life has been ruined since 1983 when TDO moved the goat in PotC 18 inches to the left.I mean, if you don't like the movie, that's cool. It's not perfect, and everyone is entitled to an opinion.....
however, going on and on and on and on and on about how the movie "ruined your childhood" or whatever is just childish and petty. Spraying constant negativity day after day doesn't help anyone. It just fuels similar behavior elsewhere.
Honestly, I wish the "comment" section on Facebook could be "disabled".

Watched TLJ today as it’s on Disney+ now (there’s an entire cut of the movie that’s just the John Williams score!). This was my first time watching it since it being in theaters. The Canto Bight thing didn’t bother me as much this time, the main problem with that side story was it went on for too long.
The Red Guard lightsaber fight/Snoke kill was still badass. The whole movie really left it open ended for Kylo to either be the big bad or to be redeemed.
And Luke’s character development in this movie was great, tbh. He goes from being someone who had gone to the “most hard to find place in the galaxy” and cutting himself off from the force to finding a way to channel the force again not just for the Resistance, but also to protect his sister from a certain death from the evil he created in Ben Solo.
Luke faced his failure and helped to bring out some of the light in him by the end. Luke dies a hero. I understand the film did things fans weren’t expecting, but that doesn’t make it a bad film. Nor does a film that throws the kitchen sink of fanfic at you mean it’s a good film.
I mean it sucks he regressed as a character, while in the Original books he grew more into a better human, never perfect but just someone always trying to make the universe greater.Luke grew up. People change with age. I don’t know why things like that are so hard to understand.
I think you love the character and wanted to see more than him. That's perfectly fine. You didn't want him to die.I mean it sucks he regressed as a character, while in the Original books he grew more into a better human, never perfect but just someone always trying to make the universe greater.
The real reason Luke is what he they made him is the director wanting to subvert the character and second his age. They didn't want to risk these older actors be in many more films so why not just do whatever with the characters.
I also think many fans see Luke as themselves, immature at first but over time and trials becoming a better person...to think one day we would make such a big mistake we would hid over protecting our friends and family its hard to swallow. If they had another saga to explore Luke and show him slowly losing faith in humans and showing Ben and him slipping apart would make it in my opinion better.

But I went into this movie expecting almost exactly what we got because of how TFA ended. He died a hero, which should at least be of comfort. Maybe it's because I don't over think some of these things, but I looked at the character of Luke Skywalker and thought, "How much longer do you realistically keep him around?" It's not that Mark Hamill is a dinosaur, but how believable is at a certain point if you kept Luke alive through this trilogy and then he came back in his what, 70's?
After a certain point, it gets to where you are beyond believability for a character to continue to exist.
