      @@dogsteeves1 Thats why she suspected that the guy who blew up starkiller base / their best pilot is a mole? Makes peeeerfect sense /s
      And her crashing into Finn at full speed )and possibly killing him in the process) was ok just so she can sexually harass the poor guy was a good idea huh? Tell me again how did they magically teleported awat from the front of ATATs and the cannon back to the base huh? there was no place for them to run or hide.
      Also if his sacrifice would do nothing at all - that only proves that Finn was a fucking idiot.

      cole schubert to be fair all those “key elements” being deleted from the movie was poignant enough to make it more focused and shortened. And the supposedly “Rey’s 3rd lesson” being deleted was logical enough due to the fact that much later on the reason why Rey left the island was bc she believed that Ben could be turned and to found out later that she was wrong. She left Luke and everything that he warned her for just for that slightest mere of hope. And that plot thread alone was very much enough of the 3rd lesson that was promised and was much more fitting to the whole thematic of the whole movie. The lesson wasn’t a literal schooling like the previous two of what Luke did, it was done by the reality itself

      Not all Disney Star Wars was bad, I enjoyed the force awakens, I loved rogue one, rebels, and the mandalorian. I haven’t seen Resistance, and think solo wasn’t terrible and could have come off better if it had a good sequel or two to continue/tie up the stories and loose ends it had. Lots of the comics and books have been good, and fallen order was awesome. But the last Jedi and rise of Skywalker, I just couldn’t enjoy them save a few small scenes.
      There were multiple parts of the movies and novels that contradict the other films, including the force awakens, and the only consistent theme is that all that Luke leia and Han worked for and the rise fall and redemption of Anakin were all for nothing, and this new group will save the day with less resources, a smaller army, no Jedi masters, and a less experienced less force potential Jedi aspirant.
      Han grows up from being a rogue and becomes a husband and father and general? Nope, leaves leia, gives up on son, now an older less talented rogue. Leia brings back the republic and defeat the empire with a multi planet rebellion and train her force sensitivity and become a wife and mother? Nope, republic didn’t stop the first order and is gone, Resistance is a smaller weaker version of rebellion, never became a master because she was pregnant, Han left her and her son became Vader 2.0. Luke never ever gives up on his family and will bring back the Jedi, be there for leia, and protect the galaxy? Nope, Luke gave up on Ben, for a split second, but that was enough for Ben to lose faith in him and turn fully to snoke, gave up on the Jedi right after his failure with Ben, abandoned his sister, and the galaxy. Anakin redeemed himself by finally fulfilling the prophecy and killing sidious? Nope, rise of skywalker trailer says otherwise.
      Anakin was the chosen one, his natural force potential unmatched by any, even the ones, except for his own children, and only by losing so many limbs and with it much of his force potential was palpatine able to stay more powerful, as even by his own admission, a fully trained skywalker in 1 piece will outgrow both himself and yoda. Yet his grandson, a boy who was so powerful even Luke admitted his natural power, and was trained for at least a decade in the light and dark side, is somehow not dominating a young aspirant Jedi with a decade less training and less force potential.

      questions? why did luke leave a tracker to his location in episode 7, only to ask why they came to his island? what about snoke and the rule of 2? what about how the holdo maneuver breaks starwars? (x-wings in OT had lightspeed) why could't 1 star destroyer light speed a little bit ahead and intercept the fleet? why didn't holdo tell poe the plan, this is a volunteer army, so he has a right to know. this isn't the 1st order where you only follow orders and don't ask questions. how did leia survive space without training? is she was trained, why didn't she train kylo, that type of skill surviving space shows a vast amount of skill. Rey has never lost in a fight. she has never trained. (staff and lightsaber completely different things) when rey falls into the dark side cave, how does she know how to swim? she spent most of her life in a desert planet. (could of been a cool trail) Luke would never kill a family member. that destroys return of the jedi arc. Vader was genocidal maniac, but ben solo had not done anything wrong yet. why not call leia and han to address this together? if snoke is so powerful, how could he not feel the lightsaber right next to him being moved by the force, he felt it when rey did it. i can find you a chunky list why i don't like this movie. it sucks that legit criticisms by fans are ignored. only to be called by last jedi lovers and rian johnson "racists, sexists, godless, hate filled people." Maybe, just maybe, we love starwars too. and want better storytelling. take some time to consider the other side. i would recommend Redletter Media's review, or Maulers review.

      Thats not why I don’t like this trilogy. In fact I’m ok watching Force Awakens. I think that was a great movie that had potential... and then this movie that was made by a guy who didn’t care much for Star Wars. I liked this one when it came out but then after time of thinking about the movie it’s not in my top I’ll tell you that.
      There are parts of this movie that I did enjoy tho. I like the opening with Poe and Hux. It was funny. But the fact that Luke, the guy who saw good in his dad who killed millions and was one of the most evil people ever, had the small thought of killing his nephew after having a split second thought
      Once again. There are parts that I like. But there’s also the bad. Good with the bad. And for me. The bad slightly overweighs the good
      (I want to point out. I love Mark Hamills acting when he does the flash back tho. It gives me chills everytime and it gets me emotional. I know that doesn’t make sense with me saying I didn’t like it but I just like Mark Hamill)

      questions? why did luke leave a tracker to his location in episode 7, only to ask why they came to his island? what about snoke and the rule of 2? what about how the holdo maneuver breaks starwars? (x-wings in OT had lightspeed) why could't 1 star destroyer light speed a little bit ahead and intercept the fleet? why didn't holdo tell poe the plan, this is a volunteer army, so he has a right to know. this isn't the 1st order where you only follow orders and don't ask questions. how did leia survive space without training? is she was trained, why didn't she train kylo, that type of skill surviving space shows a vast amount of skill. Rey has never lost in a fight. she has never trained. (staff and lightsaber conpletely different things) when rey falls into the dark side cave, how does she know how to swim? she spent most of her life in a desert planet. (could of been a cool trail) Luke would never kill a family member. that destroys return of the jedi arc. Vader was genocidal maniac, but ben solo had not done anything wrong yet. why not call leia and han to address this together? if snoke is so powerful, how could he not feel the lightsaber right next to him being moved by the force, he felt it when rey did it. i can find you a chunky list why i don't like this movie. it sucks that legit criticisms by fans are ignored. only to be called by last jedi lovers and rian johnson "racists, sexists, godless, hate filled people." Maybe, just maybe, we love starwars too. and want better storytelling. take some time to consider the other side. i would recommend Redletter Media's review, or Maulers review.

    8:14 The interesting fact about THAT particular scene is that she was actually imitating Kylo Ren's training moves, because he was using his saber the same time she was. Would have been nice to have seen that and not given that lame excuse Rian gave us about ''wanting to show the audience that they could see each other''....we already knew that from the FIRST time they saw each other! ....and for the record the idea of using the Force bond was a nice touch in TLJ since THAT particular idea had yet to be used *in the movies* !

    I would disagree that Han wasn’t different in 7, his moment where he talked about the force being real only feet away from the place he initially derided the concept. That was pure magic.
    Also when he’s telling Finn “people are counting on us, the galaxy is counting on us!” That shows a huge vocal change from the original. I know a lot of the journey is taken in the OT but I don’t believe he made the full journey by the end of RotJ.
    Going from a self-centred non-believer to someone who considers the welfare of people he doesn’t even know and believes in the Force? I loved that 😊

    A point about the the lack of Force Ghost teachers, one possible explanation about their appearance is *where* they appear. Kenobi appears weakly to Luke for a few seconds on Hoth and then fades. The other 2 times he appears is on Dagobah, a place of power with the Force. Here his Force Ghost appears with clearer blue reception and they can talk for several minutes. He is only a voice in A New Hope and does NOT appear later in ESB when called at Cloud City. Ahch-To is the first Jedi Temple and so is likely one of the strongest places of power with the Force in the galaxy. So here not only can Yoda appear as a Force Ghost, but he can seemingly manifest Force Lightning. Most other places in the galaxy it may only be possible to appear a few seconds at a time (like on Hoth) or not possible at all.

      - Sam Witwer, voice actor for Maul in The Clone Wars and Rebels, 2014
      I personally hated the movie when it came out. But after dissecting the decisions made after Episode 9, I see The Sequel Trilogy as a terrible tradegy of being too clingy of the past. The Force Awakens's setups would have forced Rian to make the most predictable story if he went with it. So TLJ could be seen as an attempt to get rid off that baggage of the past to make a new refreshing story. The conflicts of TLJ cannot be solved by beheading and old wrinkly Palpatine clone and that is new and interesting as opposed to TFA or TROS.
      Rian could have made Snoke the badguy of Episode 9 and could have given Luke a leveling up reason to be on the Island, but that would be predictable and make for a mythless and emotionless story. Giving the characters psychological barriers outside of the big bad makes things more interesting.

      Kung Olaf also miss management, lack of competent writing, boring characters, villains are one dimensional, ect. I could go on.
      Rogue one I think is the only movie to come out that I’d say was unnecessary yet proved that it could justify its existence and make me invest in the characters and story. Unlike every other film in Disney trilogy.
      I’m not mad. Just disappointed because I know there’s talent up there to make movies like rogue one. I just never figured it be so difficult to make a competent film, let alone a Star Wars movie.

    I've said this before in discussions with my friends. This is the Luke who did it all alone. Whether by choice or by circumstances, he tried to revive the Jedi and face the darkness virtually alone. The Luke in the Legends books (who I grew up with and have loved his progression), was not allowed to do it alone, which is why he succeeded. Between Jedi masters and students returning to help him, and Leia and Han's involvement and inclusion of him and his academy in the galaxy, and Mara Jade most of all, he was never alone in that timeline. I believe the seeds of both versions of Luke exist in the Return of the Jedi.

      People just fail to realize that they can like a movie, yet can agree that the movie has terrible storytelling, flawed tone, inconsistencies with previous movies and establied characters and terrible on-the-nose messages. It accually is not that difficult. But once you start defend the accually very obvious crap, because you think you need to in order to defend what you felt while watching the movie, then you just make yourself look like a clown. It accually is not that difficult to understand long established standards of storytelling and filmmaking. And the main argument, that the fans just did not get what they wanted is rather weak compared to those standards. A good movie does indeed not give the audience what they wanted, but usually something that the audience did not know they wanted. TLJ didnt do that, it deliberately didnt care about Star Wars. It just wanted to make a meta-statement about how people consume entertainment, some art-sy idea of a arrogant director. I guess on an art scala it scores a 10, on a movie and storytelling and Star Wars continuation it scores barely a 1.

    Watching TLJ in theaters was such an emotionally touching experience for me. As someone who's gone through depression and felt like giving up and isolating myself would be better for everyone, Luke's arc spoke to me so much and I hate when people say it ruined his character. For me, it MADE HIM a character I could get behind and fully appreciate. I can't really relate to OT Luke because his issues are massive in scope. I'm never going to have to fight my corrupted-by-evil father and save the universe from a dictatorship while mastering magic powers. It's still a really cool Hero's Journey story and I still love the OT as much as I did when I was a kid, but Luke went through some real human problems in TLJ and watching him overcome them in the end was super empowering for me.
    I still really love the rest of the movie too and I'm glad Rick walked away feeling positive about it despite his reasonable issues. I hate seeing RUclips full of angry rants and ugliness about this franchise, so to see a few guys just sit down and have a chill talk about the movie for a change is really cool.

      @@williamwebb580 We don't have to have seen species we've seen before for it to feel like Star Wars. The whole point of scenes that add flavor to the universe, that engage in world-building, is to show us something of the Star Wars universe we haven't seen before now, new species, a new planetary locale, things that enrich that universe as a whole by their inclusion. Places like Jabba's palace, the Mos Eisley cantina, in fact, Mos Eisley itself, & Mos Espa, the pod race arena. Even the Death Star. Sure, important plotlines took place in those locations, but the locales themselves were still parts of the Star Wars universe we hadn't seen. They could have taken place in one location, but the film was engaging in world-building with each new locale we visited, including Canto Bight. If showing us Canto Bight was unnecessary, then, by the same reasoning, so too was setting those other scenes in Jabba's palace, Mos Eisley, the cantina there, or even Tattooine, or Hoth, or Endor. Those were wondrous new locales we'd never seen until then. So too is Canto Bight. Just because you personally don't care for that locale, doesn't make it a bad or uninteresting one, except to you, & just because you personally want the plot to just keep moving forward past whatever you deem irrelevant doesn't mean it should. Just because some might feel the scene of the Falcon hiding inside the space slug in Empire Strikes Back was filler & completely unnecessary to the overall plotline, & just wanted the characters to hurry up & get to Bespin so the plot could move forward doesn't mean it should be left out of the film. People are so concerned with moving the plot forward at breakneck speed that they've forgotten to just sit back & enjoy the ride, enjoy the world-building scenes, the new locales, new species, new starships, etc.

When he was fighting vader he came even closer to killing him cutting off his hand blade ready to strike him down, in my opinion these scenes are almost one in the same. Luke almost strikes down his father out of anger for potentially corrupting his sister, and he almost strikes down Ben out of fear for doing all he will do, in the end luke choses not to kill either of them but here it was to late.

    Foreword: This comment is not meant in any way as something against fans who like "The Last Jedi". I have been a Star Wars fan and collector for most of my life, and as such am quite passionate about it. When the movie first came out, I went to see it in theaters, and at first I liked it. It was only after I took some time to truly process what happened in the film, and went back to see it again that my feelings for it changed. If you like the Last Jedi, I respect your opinion, though I would ask in return that you would also respect the fact that mine comes from a place of wanting to see the films improve and rise to the heights of their much exhaulted predecessors.
    Also, I loved the prequels ;)
    All that said, here is a list of the issues that I had in the movie;
    1. In the scene where Kylo and the two Tie Fighters head out from the Supremacy to attack the Raddus, in which they do crippling damage to the Resistance, destroying their entire fighter wing, and upper command structure, they retreat to the Supremacy because they can't be covered by the fleet. Rewind back to the beginning of the scene, and as they are flying out of the hanger, you can see HUNDREDS of Tie Fighters in that one hanger of the Supremacy alone, all of which they could have swarmed the Resistance ships with, not to mention the fighters aboard the numberous Star Destroyers accompanying it.
    2. The main chase of the film makes zero sense, in that the Resistance ships, suffering from a fuel shortage (which by itself I am perfectly fine with), are chased endlessly through space by the First Order fleet due to the fact that they cannot catch up to them, as their own vessels are slower than the Raddus and it's auxiliaries. Here is my problem with this. I come from the Mitth'raw'nuruodo school of precision hyperspace jumping, and even though those books are not canon anymore, the logic still stands. The First Order existed in one of the most chaotic and rapidly changing parts of space in Star Wars, the Unknown Regions, for almost all of their existence, and would have had to have been at least familiar with precisely calculated hyperspace jumping in order to navigate it, and if they themselves do not have a fuel shortage like their quarry, then all they would need to do is jump a couple of their Star Destroyers just ahead of the Resistance ships, and force a confrontation that would allow their comrades to catch up.
    3. Fleet Admiral Akbar was killed off with none of the grandeur that his character deserved. Replace Holdo's divisive character with him in the plot, and the story becomes significantly better. Fleet Admiral Akbar, one of the most battle hardened and experienced tacticians in all of Star Wars, taking the Raddus, turning into the First Order fleet, and uttering a variation on his famous line "It's a Trap", seconds before hyperspace ramming the Supremacy and crippling the First Order fleet, would have been one of the most glorious moments in all of Star Wars, and a truly worthy death for one of the most well known characters in Star Wars.
    4. Vice Admiral Holdo's withholding of her plan from Poe resulted in a perfectly reasonable mutiny led by Poe to try and save the ship, and all of the lives onboard it, all over a petty power play of her's to assert her dominance over him, rather than trying to actually be a decent leader, and inspire confidence in those under her command, personal biases and gripes be damned.
    5. Holdo simply stands by and watches for the first few minutes as the First Order annihilates the Resistances transports, rather than taking action and attempting to use the Raddus to protect them, even by using the 3 km long vessel to block the incoming fire from the enemy blaster cannons. This results in the deaths of countless Resistance members.
    6. When Finn goes to sacrifice himself by crashing into the First Order's ram inorder to try and save the Resistance base, Rose crashes into him at the last second (which by itself could have killed them both), and after crashing into him, justifies it with one if the most idiotic and illogical lines ever, "I saved you, dummy. That's how we're gonna win. Not fighting what we hate, but saving what we love". Mere seconds later the ram fires, blasting a hole in the barrier, and all seems pretty much lost for the Resistance. Had "Deus Ex Rey" not been there to move the boulders, they would all have been slaughtered, and then her love would have resulted in the total demise of the Resistance.
    With this now finished and out of the way, I will post a seperate follow up list of all of the things I loved about the film (of which there are a fair few), at a later time. Thank you to those who read this, for taking time in the first place to read this, admittedly quite long, though necessarily detailed post.

      All fair points, save one. The movie made it clear that Finn's crashing into the ram cannon would not have incapacitated it like he thought it would, so Rose was actually saving him from sacrificing his life for nothing, as the ram cannon would have fired anyway, as it would have still been quite operational. That knowledge sort of makes what Rose said mean a bit more.

      @@blazer2123 It's at the point in the film where Finn is just getting ready to start his run, as the cannon becomes fully charged. Poe says over their comm, "The cannon is charged! It's a suicide run!" I get the impression Poe knew what he was talking about in that moment. It's 0:08 or thereabouts on this video, ruclips.net/video/KIhIDivbd-o/видео.html .
      Edit: I might be wrong. That still may only mean that they knew Finn would die doing it, not that it would fail, but I originally took it to mean that the plan would fail. Can't currently locate anything else on the matter without watching the movie again.

    Who runs the galaxy? What state is it in? Why are they called the resistance if they were in charge? Who are they resisting? What even is the first order? Why is Rey so powerful in the force? What were the 3 lessons that Luke taught Rey? Also how did the first order come up with and have enough resources to be able to take over the galaxy after they lost their super power the death star? Also didn't snoke tell Kylo to return to him to complete his training? What happened to that?

    The problem, in my mind, with Snoke is that he went out too fast after being built up to be this hugely powerful force user. True, fans did over-hype Snoke. But what is also true, and shouldn't be ignored, is that The Force Awakens builds up Snoke, his powers, his authority, his influence, and leaves him a mystery for the fans to discuss and theorize on. He was this mysterious massive dark-side force which seemingly turned Kylo to the dark side, the movie begs for the viewer to ask "who is this guy? Why is he so powerful? How did he convert Kylo? Etc." These aren't the only movies to ever see a fan base who theorized about a character/mystery. Plenty of massively popular series (Example: the MCU) have built up questions in previous films, leaving the audience to theorize, and then answers those questions later. The issue with The Last Jedi is that despite the questions being raised in The Force Awakens, they are never answered in any meaningful way almost as if to discourage any speculation or theorizing at all, which to me just seems like a bad way to galvanize a fanbase. Fans become fans because they love the media they are watching. Fans become a community when they discuss the media and create a community through shared enjoyment and discussion, specualtion and theories are apart of that and it felt like Rian Johnson didn't understand that and ignored it.
    Ok, rant over. Thought it needed to be said given how massive a fan of Star Wars everyone here is. TLDR; Snoke's fate was bad because it didn't answer questions that were raised in Force Awakens not because the fans speculated and didn't get what they want.

      Except there was really nothing interesting about Snoke. Andy Serkis gave the role his all, but in terms of character and motivation, Snoke was just Palpatine 2.0 With An Even More Fucked-Up Face, and they did the smartest thing they could with such a nothing character: make him a red herring. An obstacle in the way of the real Big Bad's quest for power.

      Thespis64 you can say that now that he’s dead and gone. But at the time of Last Jedi that just wasn’t the case. He had potential. The whole point of those Snoke theories wasn’t, in my opinion, because fans were building up things they wanted only to cry when they didn’t happen, it was because we were curious and expected answers or some kind of development in the Last Jedi to explain him. It’s more about lost potential. In the post-Last Jedi world, Snoke was nothing boring and uneventful. But that idea is a result of him being unexplained, underdeveloped, and underutilized in that very movie. That’s a fault of the movie not giving some kind of context not the fault of the character himself or the fans.

    In regards to the bombers, the ship has artificial gravity, like all ships in Star Wars. The bombs drop within that gravity, and then leave it, so they keep going at the same speed. Or they're attracted to the gravity of the dreadnaught. Whichever, it works either way.

    Erik man it's so disingenuous to say "well Obi wan had powers, qui gon. Etc etc" as an excuse for Rey. Obi Wan was weak with the force, but he trained more than everyone. He willed himself to that. Even if we don't see it in the movies. There's a significant time jump from 1 - 2, and the movie specifically speaks about how he'd been trained since he was a kid. It's inexcusable that Rey's powers are as high as they are without the training. I know you love the franchise as much as you do and the movie has gotten flack it didn't deserve, but defending that aspect simply not the wave.

    I have to take issue with Eric's statement that "if you don't think Luke would act like this you're wrong. " Problem with that is that Mark Hamill himself disagreed with the portrayal of Luke in this movie. He even told director Rian Johnson that he "fundamentally disagreed with everything you've written about my character". Also George Lucas hates all the Disney Star Wars movies, and that dude created Star Wars.
