We are keeping this thread spoiler free or not? I may have to bow out until Sunday.
Yup. For the big movies, we usually ask for spoiler tags for a 2 weekend period. After that, all bets are off.
Rotten Tomatoes:
Boy oh boy oh boy.
Yikes....I didn't expect that low; the top critic score is disastrous
Let it be known that there is now a non-zero chance that Cats will get a higher RT score than Star Wars.
To be fair the critics gave TLJ a 91% score so maybe we shouldn't rely on what they say?
The fact that they don't like this makes me think it might actually be good.
Saw this on reddit:
Episode 1 and episode 9 have the lowest rated scores on rotten tomatoes, true balance in the force.
Ya same. Like nostalgia wise I love phantom menace but that script is not great lol. I’m expecting to enjoy myself in the theatre tomorrow night, then moving onto The Mandalorian and future Star Wars afterwardsFurther proof that the number doesn’t mean anything. If it’s Phantom Menace bad I’ll be shocked.
”Even my experience as a fan, you know if I’m coming into something, even if it’s something that I think I want, if I see exactly what I think I want on the screen, it’s like ‘oh, okay,’ it might make me smile and make me feel neutral about the thing and I won’t really think about it afterwards, but that’s not really going to satisfy me.”
Maybe not since the OT, but from what I gather this film is definitely not perfect, but realistically guys, has ANY Star Wars film since the OT been anywhere near perfect?
Im talking fan response. I don't think theres been an overwhelmingly positive response to a Star Wars film since the 80s. So to me, this almost sounds like just another Star Wars film lol.Yes.
The Last Jedi
