- If you've seen The Last Jedi, you may be wondering how some of those big decisions were made. Well, take a look inside the pitch meeting to find out! Subscribe to our channel: goo.gl/ho3Hg6
The Last Jedi has stormed into theaters. The film is certainly one of the most complex films set in a galaxy far, far away so you’ll be forgiven if you didn’t catch everything on the first viewing. There’s a ton going on in the background that you may not have even noticed and we’re here to help you find them. For example, did you catch that Rey stole the Jedi books? Blink and you’ll miss it! Luke’s final reveal was actually telegraphed well in advanced in a masterful way. Supreme Leader Snoke actually has a piece of bling that harkens back to Rogue One! Speaking of bling, what were those dice that we saw a few times? Luke has a stash of trinkets at the tree on Ahch-To, one of them ties directly to Star Wars Battlefront 2 while another may be a reference to the beloved Knights of the Old Republic video games. We get our first look, sort of, at the first Jedi while at the temple with Luke and Rey. Did you think Rian Johnson forgot about the famous line “I have a bad feeling about this?” Think again! We got to see the old X Wing used in a very interesting way and get a call back to a character from Rogue One in the form of a ship. Of course, being Star Wars, there are a ton of cameos in the film that you likely didn’t catch either, some of them being quite obvious! So strap in for the video and enjoy the ride!

great!
Hey, SR, as much as I loved this video, you missed one point. The one where Luke stood up to The Emperor and Darth Vader, the two most evil men in the Galaxy at the time, and he wouldn't kill his father because he saw the little bit of good in him, but somehow in this movie, he has a "thought" of killing his nephew because he sensed evil... His nephew.. that was nowhere near Darth Vader's Calibur. And also it's more than I thought.. a thought it just thinking it, he went through 3 steps. The thought, turning on the lightsaber, and then partially lifting it up to swing... That's more than just a thought. Lol, if you would've added that, it would've been perfect, but, it was still an almost perfect explanation of the movies flaws. Great job

I like them. You folks seem to have it down.
It does not matter if anyone is making anymore StarWars films to me. They will NEVER work under Disney, Kathy, JarJar and Rian Doucher's command.
StarWars was ruined and killed.
Should never made another after the 80's.
I'm writing a Darth Maul one to do him justice.
I think it's a really beautiful end for her charact-
*HAVE HER FLY BACK LIKE MARY POPPINS.*
They couldn't help that, they didn't know she was actually dead in real life when they made that
The way he delivers that line is priceless. And with what appears to be genuine glee on his face!
@@mookinbabysealfurmittens ikr
Steven Bowser. For a few seconds I actually had in my mind that they were two separate people 😀. He is good.
Imagining her flying while holding an umbrella yelling I'm mary poppins y'all!
“Oh yeah, and Luke dies.”
“Oh, really? How?”
“He uses the force too hard.”
“Okay!”
Using the force too hard is TIGHT!
He plays a force prank ok Kylo and then has a nappy nap.
That works.
THIS. Of all of the things that people harp on about this movie, I wish this one got more attention. I can't believe that's actually what they went with.
@@dtester *is badass
“We find out that Phasma’s armor is laser-proof.”
“Then why did she help Finn, Han, and Chewie in the last movie under threat of being shot while in full armor?”
“Because.”
“Oh, ok.”
Didn't they, like, shove the blaster under the helmet or something?
@@kaboomgaming4255 At first Han's looks like it might be, but it could be due to Harrison not holding it high enough. Finn has his pointed right at the back of her helmet when they first threaten her. When she actaully does turn the sheilds off, they're all like 5 feet away, so it doesn't make much sense. It's only when they talk about putting her in the trash compactor that Finn's blaster is deliberately pointed under her helmet.
@@WatrDragn I mean tbf from that distance she might still have died, it’s not like the bolt had anywhere else to go.
I'm going to need you to get all the way off my back about this.
Because Chewie would’ve ripped her arms off and played the drums on her helmet like a partying Ewok.
Two years later, I finally realized that J.J. Abrams’ mystery box is empty.
His mistery boxes are always empty.
@@plcflame Is that why they're a mystery?
I think they could have been filled well, but getting two directors following him who wanted to collaboratively work. They got Rian going completely against it, and then some fool thought JJ would be a good choice to finish it.
Well, JJ wasn't supposed to direct this last movie in the first place. Lol
YA RECKON?!
This probably actually happened no joke
Jojo Moon there was only one writer, so it couldn't have

The pitch meeting was better than the movie.
Facts
Pitch meetings are always better than he movie, you should watch new hope to return of the Jedi, 😂
Right-because dentistry without painkillers would allow me to feel something, which I did not in sitting through this mess.
A fourteen-hour video showing a day in the life of an obese walrus suffering from a savage bout of irritable bowel syndrome would be better than the movie, and shorter in runtime too.
@John Wolf Disney: hold my beer
This was the movie that made me stop caring about star wars
Me too
Yup. I liked force awakens on first viewing but noticed some oddities and writing fuckups... didnt dwell on it and happily awaited the next part. Il even admit, i didnt hate it first viewing. Bits were crap but i was so happy it wasnt prequel cheese, all cgi, the fight seemed cool on a first watch. Was trying so hard to just enjoy star wars again. But i noticed it was a while before i wanted to watch it, or FA again... and that 2nd viewing just opened up so many questions. The veil slipped. This isnt what a classic movie feels like. My mind just went into overdrive picking at it...wow. What have they done 😬. Then you find some lengthy youtube massacres of it and its just ... theres no opinion in it. Its pure fact. Its fundamentally, catastrophically terrible from the ground up. Some surface level flash and pretty images over a genuine train wreck. Ive only just bothered to watch Rise....
Yep
@@randomsam949 There is a WHOLE LOT of agenda in TLJ. As more time goes by, I am beginning to think a motivated group of people deliberately trashed Star Wars. I know Disney paid 4 billion dollars for the IP. So, on a macro level, Disney wanted it to succeed. But, on a micro level, the artists and storywriters they hired? I think they had a (I know this buzzword is overused but it fits) "toxic" opinion of Star Wars. They wanted to tear down Luke Skywalker. They wanted to get rid of the space battles and the light saber battles and attack the concept of "the hero's journey". From a narrative point of view the movie is a near incoherent mess. I think its pretty clear that taking shots at the image of the "powerful white male leader" (both hero and villain) was far more important than a coherent story. I am increasingly convinced the whole project was a mean spirited exercise in cultural vandalism. It was a mean joke played on all of us.
Their merch can still be found on pegs especially the fat asian with the bad haircut.
I was SO pissed off at Rose for “saving” Finn!!
Me too!!!
My partner who isn't the biggest fan of Star Wars to begin with was going WTF with that scene. It made literally no sense in any capacity.
totally Ok for the admiral to do a kamakazi run, but nooooo, can't let Finn do the same thing. WTH?
"I don't think JJ knew the answer to those questions. Have you seen Lost?" ...Ouch. That burn.
informeducateself he did...all questions were answered.
You don't know what questions I had to ask... are we talking Lost or Star Wars?
Although in all seriousness he left after the first season. I think his original idea was something like purgatory, but the writers had a disagreement based on the fans guessing, and some other people took over. That's why its so messy.
JJ only participated in 3 episodes... in the whole series.
informeducateself I was a huge Lostie but you cannot argue with that haha
I love how Disney took one of the most successful, well known and loved franchises in entertainment history and just shot it in the face.
Well, to be fair LucasFilm kinda did that first with the Prequels
T DD The prequels are better than the sequels, they actually had characters that developed, had a plotline that actually leads somewhere and didn't crap all over established star wars lore
T DD Besides, the prequels aren't all that bad, everyone just likes to hate them
T DD prequels were bad, but they had a coherent story and tried to develop their characters, TLJ takes soo many unnecessary detours and has little to no attempts at character development.
The prequels are fine if you appreciate the mythology and story of the fall of the (Roman) Republic. Granted the movies are not nearly as entertaining, but that is why Lucas started with part 4
“So we’re taking everything the force awakens and throwing it away”
Literally the same pitch meeting for rise of skywalker
Except in RoS they threw away Last Jedi and picked all the stuff from TFA back up again.
Michael Timothy they also threw away return of the Jedi by bringing Palpatine back
Maybe this is why you don't let play Round Robin with directors on your Star Wars sequel.
@@OsirisLord They did it in the original trilogy
@@CV-Moore George Lucas was still executive producer and his wife was still editor. And they collaborated with the subsequent directors on where to take the story.

Oh yeah, but you definitely should get off my back about it)
My buddy strongly questioned the movie after that moment. Like why haven’t we put droids in ships to go lightspeed into star destroyers and such
.....So technically they could have just used a bare hyperdrive as a bomb and accomplished the exact same thing without wasting a whole ship?

@@mar10ssj1 Whatever you think, dude. Bad film regardless of what you say, and you can't really counter any of the criticisms
I just noticed that in this Pitch Meeting he doesn't smile excessively like he normally does.
Because it’s impossible to smile when talking about this shitfest
In earlier Pitch Meetings, the tone was a lot more serious. In later Pitch Meetings, Ryan's take on the producer & writer characters was more akin to a parody. Overall, I think I like where he's gone with these characters.
@@Number251137 they have more of a character arc than anyone in the SW sequel trilogy for sure
@@andrewholmes3116 Hahahahahahahah!!!
@The Shadow Man lmfao 😂 so true dude
Rewatching this to prepare for “The Rise of Skywalker” pitch meeting😂
God I hope they do it soon
At this point I would have settled for an 80s style training montage for Rey obtaining her Jedi powers. Anything would have been better than "She's like the best Jedi ever.... because reasons"
80s style training montages are tight
Yeah she just is powerful for no reason.
Because “the force is female” (smdh)
They could actually fix her character arc, retroactively, by explaining that the force itself is using her to balance the imbalance of dark side power, and by herself she actually wouldn't be that special. Case in point, she had an opportunity to convince Kylo that a republic is fundamentally superior to authoritarianism, but she decided to fight him instead.
how does she is a wound in the force sound for a good fix?
So Rey's like the classic "hero's journey" but with all the middle part cutout.
And with irrelevant parents....
Great, its like we saw the same youtube video...
yup...the new Luke without a Vader blood, kinda anti climactic though
found the fool who commented on a video before watching it
It’s true though
Although the movie ends up poaching esb (whether it wants to or not) Rey attempting to redeem Ben is a skip all the way to where Luke was in rotj
”And he’s gonna make this amazing self-sacrifice and save the day... and she swoops in and stops him!”
”Why??”
”Because she wanted a little KISS!”
I love how he says that last part
Haha!
The Mary Poppins part is the hardest I’ve ever laughed at one of these. And that’s saying a lot
Leia: *I'm Mary Poppings Y'all*
"Is he cool?"
🤣🤣🤣
@@darthsmythe6783
"yeah hes cool"
I saw Last Jedi in the theater with my family and when Leia used the Force to fly back to the ship, my mom whispered in my ear, "I'm Mary Poppins, y'all." It was hilarious.
@@GarrettTheViking okay she's cool
You totally nailed this. I left the movie like....wtf? "So where did Snoke come from?Reys parents are no one? Wth was that ENTIRE casino crap even for???? I was beyond disappointed in this movie.
SuperNavatar You see where Palpatine comes from, and it's explained that Anakin is the chosen one and a creation of the force... You have no argument.
Lucas made us wait 19 years after Palpatine's first appearance before we finally began to learn his backstory... 26 years to see him ultimately corrupt Anakin... 29 years from his first mention in A New Hope, from start to finish. So, ummm.... did we really expect all of the answers we wanted in 2 years?
Was nobody but me impressed that all the shitty fan theories were destroyed? It made me all warm inside. Took balls to do that, and was realistic as hell.
SuperNavatar ahaha what horsesh***. If giant plot holes, awkward attempts at humor, useless sub-plots and a few Deus Ex Machinas count for a ‘sophisticated’ film I’ll stay simple thanks. PS I have a bridge to sell you.
I said, "Wtf!!!???" many times during the film.
I love when he does things like
“Do you think the fans are gonna be disappointed?”
“What do you mean?”
Like he sometimes will act completely clueless. Fits the characters(writers) he’s portraying.
You know, he makes a really good point about the whole Leia space flight. That could have been a powerful and emotional end to her character. She could have floated off into space and then disappeared into the Force and people would have loved it. The way it was done was almost comical.
They wasted all of the deaths. Especially Mark and Carrie, the deaths of Luke and Leia. They fucked all of them up and it was the one and only chance. Disrespecting the beloved characters and respected actors, who had to spend their last years filming this trilogy and a total waste of their limited time. I think that this rises above the actual content of the films. (To all the fans defending Disney still and attacking people who are upset.) This whole trilogy has been a tale of pure incompetence and blind greed.
To everyone ever: Make sure defending a corporation is going to be worth it before you go and white knight for Disney, or Warner Brothers, or any studio. Same with the video game industry. People defend corporations and it never pays off for us.
@@sorryifoldcomment8596 I don't defend them and I do hate the Last Jedi from most standpoints bar being a watchable film, but people do attack new things too much.
They had to have Leia actually some force abilities at some point. It was a cool idea, they needed to just only show it from her pov, with the ship getting closer and closer, rather than showing it from a 3rd person view where it looked really fake.
Indeed. If they killed off Han Solo, they could have killed off Leia. And with the whole force thing, she could have talked to Kylo Ren as a force ghost and that would have been a better reveal than just kind of being around for a while.
Wow. I could hear Ryan Johnson saying "You've seen Lost right?
I genuinely think thats how he justified this movie to Disney
He was right
LucasFilm "He made Lost's ending? Hire this guy for ending the trilogy!"
"You've seen Lost, right?" was my favorite line in the video. Glad I wasn't drinking anything at the time or I would have spit it all over the screen, laughing. I can't think of Lost without feeling angry. What a waste of all the time spent watching the series.
Cat Woods the ending of lost was really well done. What else could you have asked for?
It was well done for people who were just in it for the characters (mostly the binge-watchers after the fact). But for people who were more into the mysteries, especially those who were waiting a week or an off-season in between each episode and had time to think about it, it was utterly disappointing.
But they managed to free the slave animals, so they said no matter what happens this was all worth it.
Not the slave children?
No, they're still slaves.
That part really got me! Haha!
Yeah, and Finn was a janitor and no one's complaining..........Disney thumbed EVERYBODY in this trash film!
To be fair, those kids where brats and at least aren't wearing Leia's slave outfit. Imagine if they where? Actually, don't imagine that.
you know those animals probably got captured again right lmao how far could they have gone
Not to mention the slave animals will probably be baited and caught a few weeks or months later. Maybe even killed and sold for meat as revenge. The children probably received a good number of beatings for their misbehavior. Finn and Rose didn't do a single favor for the people on that planet, just roughed things up a bit for a few days.
And those slave kids are the ones who need to clean up and repair the casinos...
This is seriously alot harder to watch after seeing the Rise Of Skywalker.
dang bruh
I saw Rise of Skywalker. I don't see how it makes this any harder. If anything it validates Ryan guessing that the "Mystery Boxes" were empty.
David Hoffman
Rise of Skywalker didn’t prove TFA mystery box was empty. It was because TLJ destroyed so many questions (without setting up anything) that it was difficult to salvage.
For example, If Rian didn’t kill snoke, JJ didn’t have to bring back palpatine
@@kneegear5123 Fair enough. But I've seen Lost and I'm pretty sure the boxes were empty from the start.
@@kneegear5123 JJ could bring back any other sith, but he chose Palpatine, who was obliterated...
"Oh and, ya know how so many people grew up with Luke being an amazing Jedi Master in the Expanded Universe books?"
"Oh, yeah, I loved those books! So will Luke be an amazing Jedi Master?"
"No, he's going to screw up VERY badly in a flashback, put the whole galaxy in danger and then run away from the problems he created because he figures the best thing he can do is die quietly."
"Oh, so does he have a change of heart and save the day at least?"
"Yeah, he does but it's like, really hard and he dies and, like Obi-Wan and Yoda, his entire body disappears into the Force."
"What about his robot hand?"
"His robot hand?"
"Yeah, do robot parts become one with the Force, too? It doesn't seem like they would. I would think it would fall to the ground when he disappears."
"Oh, well, that would ruin the gravity of the scene so we're not doing that."
"Oh, alright, continue."
That's gold! Never thought about that. And done in the same style!
This is by far my favourite comment on any Screen Rant video xD
I actually think his body dissolving and to see the hand drop in the sand would add to the gravity. It has a more lonely, sacrificial feeling to it. If only the people working on the movie actualy cared about those things.
@@somethingsomething7507 I mostly did this to reply to a reply to a reply. But also that’s is super deep I wish you were on the writing team.
Since the sequels are basically just a rehashing of the original trilogy, they gave Luke the role of Yoda. He's not the hero, so they couldn't show him as all-powerful and solving all the problems. Now unlike with Yoda, there was pressure to let him save the day at least once, so they struck a compromise.
"Kylo and Rey slide into each other's force DMs"

He didn´t even mention the fact that they dropped bombs in space, you know with zero gravity.
So. Would the bombs:
A. Just float away randomly?
B. Continue travelling at the same speed and in the same direction as they did when they left the bomber (which, like all SW space crafts, had artificial gravity)?

The Last Jedi's failures were so unexpected that I literally formed an amnesiac barrier around it to the point where I only remembered brief images of the most iconic scenes until I started watching reviews on it more recently.
Didn't even bother going to see the Rise of Skywalker. The Last Jedi was too depressing to even put in the effort.
I saw all 3 movies and"The Last Jedi"is the only 1 I truly liked(to the point it's my 2nd favorite of ALL the SW movies). The other 2 were a disappoitment.

You also have to remember that Rey's internal conflict in Force Awakens was that she hoped that her family would come back for her, even though she didn't really believe it. She never had any expectation or reason to believe that they weren't "nobodies." In Last Jedi when Kylo Ren tells her that they were nobodies she should have just said "Why would I have thought otherwise?" Rian Johnson got confused between the fans thinking her parents were somebody important and Rey thinking it.
You're dead right! I've never considered that before.
Round head johnson was too busy destroying star wars to give af. He wanted to subvert expectations, doesnt matter how nonsensical or uninteresting any of his subversions were. Just look at how many brain dead morons ate it up.
You can tell Ryan was actually mad about this movie. His tone is way more serious even for early pitch meetings
No, it's just one of the earliest ones, they were all like this.
Ryan liked this movie.

This is my favorite Pitch Meeting... Well placed, hilarious jabs one after the other
Flying space Leia was the moment this franchise died.
I would argue it died when they made an incompetent remake of A New Hope, i.e. Force Awakens.
Starting production on the first film of a trilogy without even the vaguest sense of an outline for the said trilogy was the moment this franchise died. Leia Poppins was just the audible visual evidence of the flatline...
@@Minotaur-ey2lg If A New Force Hope Awakens actually led to a good franchise it would have been ok in retrospect.
Force awakens killed it... last jedi was just the final nail in the coffin.
No. It was Phantom Menace.
The ironic part... This Pitch makes it sound much better than it actually was.
indeed
Holdo is really a hero. By killing herself, she saved us from having to see her ever again!
Oh thank God. I prefer she would have died due to an allergy attack.
Force ghost in 9
The silver lining

GINNVNGAGAP I wish all the new characters (except Poe) would follow in her footsteps

Finally, there is a period of normalization It will last indefinitely." -KGB defector, yuri bezmenov.
(we are on year 13 of the first step)
- And what about Luke?
- He's going to stay on the planet until a fight in the end.
- So he does come to join the resistance after all?
- No, he's still on the island, using force magic.
- Oh, okay, so I guess you're mostly saving the big scenes for the third movie?
- No he dies.
- He dies?!
- Couldn't keep Mark around. Creative differences.
- Oh, okay. But how?
- We just took a scene where he was seen meditating and reworked it so he vanishes in post-production.
- Okay.
GregTom2 Haha creative differences. Seems to be a big problem at Disney.
Chris Warmuth that why they keep fiering directors all the time
You realise that this is probably the most accurate interpretation of what happened, don't you?
I make films myself (short ones only so far) and I spotted that the shot of Luke vanishing was a last minute addition, roughly inserted. I also remembered Mark Hamill's face the night of the first premiere and realised what the expressions were on his face - the first was disbelief (otherwise known as 'denial') and the second, directed clearly in Rian Johnson's direction, was anger. Denial and anger are the first two stages of grief.
Why would he be grieving is the question you should ask yourself. If he already knew Luke was going to die, why grieve for his character? Unless - shock horror - he didn't know...
He DIES?! Luke Skywalker DIES? The Jedi who beat Darth Vader dies? How?
Super easy, barely and inconvenience.
GregTom2 GREAT COMMENT
"Well I thought she was really under-used in the first movie"
"AGREED!"
"So I did that again!"
LOL
2:32 The bit about Leia flying back is hilarious.
I was looking forward to him saying "so lukes a a child murderer now" "what?"
Like father like son I guess
This was better than the actual movie!
shove it then
You are right, this had humor, this had truth, this had depth, it had everything the film lacked, and was so much better for it.
understatement
Have her fly back like Mary Poppins 😂
Ash Done “I really like Mary poppins” lol
"I'M MARY POPPINS Y'ALL!"
- Taken from a far more interesting film
aegisghost guardians of the galaxy? Lol
aegisghost Ironically, Guardians 1 and 2 are two of the best star wars movies I've seen.
LMAO, you really nailed just how bad this movie was! Rian Johnson successfully subverted my expectations by making me never to want to pay to watch another Star Wars movie in a theatre again! Even after the prequels I thought I'd at least see every Star Wars movie in the theatre at least once! Rian Johnson is the master of subverting expectations no doubt!
Yep. I'll never pay for any film Rian Johnson touches. Isn't he slated to do more actual star wars movies too? 🤔 🤣 I won't even watch those for free.
@@myTERAexperience he was, then after Disney realised how awful the last Jedi was, they cancelled the planned trilogy with that round headed Buffoon at the helm.
@@oldschool8330 awesome. I may watch more star wars then. Lol
Bye Felicia.
"You seeing this?" - Why is that the best comedy line ever? Someone explain!
I love the part where Holdo's super secret genius plan gets everyone killed. That's so smart.
Did you even watch the film? Holdo's plan would have saved many people. It was Poe who got many people killed by not trusting Leia's friend. I know this is a last jedi hate page so I expect no one to think.
Andy Andy I think that Holdo couldn't have been any more suspicious about her plan. Was there any reason she had to withhold the information from Poe and the others? Maybe she just didn't trust Poe, but then you can't expect Poe to trust this person who is seemingly letting the crew die by doing nothing just because she's Leia's friend.
Andy Andy Do you even have common sense? She could have told poe her plan and he wouldn't have to suspect her, thus would not have acted as he did. I know you like to justify anything under the sun (even if it's objectively flawed), so you'll obviously disagree with me.
Paul Martin lol
Paul Martin yes well go watch the transformers then because those movies look cool but everything regarding the plot is trash if you...think
You guys nailed it.
fenderperry
both of them nailed it
B-b-but Kevin Smith reviewed it for an hour and a half and said it was amazing...didn’t have 1 bad word to say about it..
Yep
UFC Armchair Cornerman Kevin Smith's "review" felt more like his teleplay version. He basically just summarized the thing.
They totally nailed it.
Thats me as C-3PO and my friend Dan's R2-D2 at 4:49!
This pitch meeting was much more entertaining than the last Star Wars movies, especially episodes 7-9 and Solo!
this sums it all up way too perfectly
Nailed it SO HARD.
5:45 "What do you think of The Last Jedi? Where does it rank?"
Excellent phrasing. Imma say everywhere. It ranks everywhere.
Came back after the 300th episode (I think this is the first PM I ever saw), because they made a comment of how grounded it was. I love pitch meetings, I watch then as they drop to this day, but after rewatching this one I feel they became super hyperactive and filled to the brim with catchphrases. I mean you like every step of the way, every new catchphrase is cool and stuff but then you look at the whole picture and idk. I still really enjoy them, but I would like to see a chill episode, one catchphrase and more common and grounded dialogue.
Leia be like, "I'M LEIA POPPINS YA'LL!!"
all this reminds me of is a better sci-fi movie I could be watching.
Hahaha this is gold. It is almost exactly everything that i thought were wrong in the movie.
Andy Abdullah yeah me too. They forgot to mention the slow motion
I was so worried Mike was going to like it. Very relieved when I realized they all agreed with me.
1:43 funny thing is ROS basically proved him right...
"... you've seen Lost". 😂
I remember catching a glimpse of that show and releasing that they had no idea where that show was going.
Pretty much.. right on the money. The movie looks FANTASTIC and I was entertained but it all falls apart as soon as you start processing what you saw.
Royce12 true!
Exactly. Some people definitely haven't processed it yet. Some will like it no matter what, because.... like.......Star Wars. I had an hour drive home after the movie to think about it. By the time I was home, I had decided it was a bad movie, and not worth seeing again.
blackfrancis55 I humbly disagree, I’ve had two days to think about the movie and the more I do the more I like it.
Just like the plot of Mass Effect 2 lol.
Welcome to pretty much the same shit as alternate universe, where everything goes unanswered and everything is... well... expanded.
The last jedi is ranked lower than the family guy star wars specials.
That's cause it's way worse lol
And deservingly so!!
Not to mention the Robot Chicken specials
To be fair, the Family Guy Star Wars specials were great. The first 2 anyway. The 3rd was passable. The amount of attention to detail that went into mirroring shots from the film in big scenes was insane.
I'd put them low mid-table in the list of Star Wars films/tv.
Clone Wars animated series
Episode 5

Things JJ introduced that Rian Johnson destroyed:
- Rey giving the lightsaber to Luke
- the mystery of Rey's parents
- Snoke
- Snoke's cool star destroyer
- Kylo Ren's helmet
- Captain Phasma
Leia can survive blaster fire, explosions and the vacuum of space.
Luke dies from thinking too hard.
I saw this a couple weeks ago before seeing the movie yesterday. Recalling the comments from this video nearly made me spew my soda when I saw the scenes in the movie. Particularly the Mary Poppins scene. I wasn't sure that you were not making things up.
John Henderson IKR!!?!
I thought the "thrown in jail for parking wrong" and "Poe made a Yo Momma joke" were exaggerations. Guess who was staring at the screen in disbelief.
That was actually more entertaining than the actual movie.
Agreed
I'm glad you found you formula for making these vidoes.
I've never seen any Star Wars movie after Return of the Jedi, and these excellently-done critiques are making sure I never do. Thank you!
I'm so glad videos like this exists. Here to hoping the right people see it.
The Back of the Classroom the jews? They don't care
"We kind of baited fans for two years with questions like who's Snoke and now he's dead."
D&D: Just watch what we do with our *night king* in Game of Thrones. Muahahahaha!
(Hint: *8 years* )
Back at Disney: Go hire those guys! They know what's up.
@@jpesmar Disney: We always listen to our fans!
D&D will make an "Old Republic" trilogy!
@@StormflameMW if they(D&D and Disney) touch that peace of Gold and Diamond, they ARE DEAD!
@@abdelrahmanamr651 you're not up to date with the news, ha?
Damn, hack white dudebro screenwriters failing upwards in Hollywood are multiplying like the plague
After you watch several of these "super easy, barely an inconvenience" causes automatic laughter
I have been watching these pitch meeting videos for an hour straight when I am supposed to be working from home.
*ZERO REGRETS*
"She uses the force I don't know" that was probably the *REAL* explanation for that scene
Viper3220 And how did all those trained jedi masters die in order 66?
.... They
.
.
.
Forgot to have their shields up?
Maybe they weren’t expecting the soldiers they’ve spent years developing relationships with to just kill them without any regard.
Omg the accuracy HURTS
Its even funnier if you imagine Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson. I can totally see this be their actual pitch meeting
The wobbly cam. I dying... 🤣🤣🤣
This is better than the movie.
JustARandomStranger that’s not to hard to accomplish
agreed
Best comment
So damn true
B-b-but Kevin Smith reviewed it for an hour and a half and said it was amazing...didn’t have 1 bad word to say about it..
Spot on. Bravo. Spot. Freakin'. On. You can't see me right now, but I'm slow-clapping. Well, actually, I'm typing. But when I'm finished typing, I will be slow-clapping, I can assure you.
So glad you dropped the camera shake in later videos.
ironicly the porgs and the crystal fox's were some of the only good things about the moive XD
Well... no?
I love how this video was both better written and more entertaining than The Last Jedi.
No it isn’t. This is nowhere near as bad as Batman and Robin. I’d even say it’s up there with Batman Begins.
Adam Clinton Batman and Robin is great compared to this movie. I didn't stop liking DC after I saw the movie, can't say the same about Star Wars
Better cast as well.
Well give the low bar it was super easy, barel-... well you get it.
Adam Clinton I guess Batman Begins had horrible character and story development then :/
I would love to see JJAbrams ignore everything from "The Last Jedi" the way Rian Johnson ignored everything from "The Force Awakens".
Snoke is still alive. Luke is still alive (and didn't try to kill his nephew in his sleep). Rey is actually somebody and had some training in her youth which she forgot (or was blocked), etc.
If Johnson could do it to Abrams, Abrams can do it back to Johnson.
Jim Alexander
I could just see it, Rae wakes up on the island with Luke, Luke tells he that sometimes you see things through the force that could be but aren't.
And Frank Morgan appears in the window wondering if she's alright, while Ray Bolger, Jack Hayley & Bert Lahr condescendingly smirk at her gullibility in believing it all to have been true.
In all seriousness, at this point, nothing could make this franchise any worse.
1:30 BEST PART hahaha the alien seacow!
This was brutal, and brutally funny.
the answer to what does kylo Ren look like without his shirt on:
S Q U A R E
He just looks *wrong*, like his head is too tiny for his massive chest and shoulders.
Has to wear a high-waist tight belly band because his tummy is round. Eats ice-cream when depressed.
@@MarcusTullman They shot him at a really fucked up angle. Not surprising given the rest of the direction.
Ben swalo
The shape of EVIL!
I love this rant, best TLJ rant I ever seen great job. This is 10x better than the movie and didn't take away 3hrs of my life in the process.
