Chris Stuckmann reviews Star Wars: The Last Jedi, starring Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Domhnall Gleeson, Gwendoline Christie, Andy Serkis, Laura Dern, Kelly Marie Tran, Benicio Del Toro. Directed by Rian Johnson.
Kylo: "Before I kill her, Supreme Leader, may I ask something?"
Snoke: "What?"
Kylo: "Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Maul?"
Lol I thought that too!
YOU WIN!
Lmao awesome.
Nice, very nice
Darth Maul was killed by Obiwan in rebels ...
Luke Skywalker wasn't kidding when he told Rey he wasn't leaving that island.
nuffsaidNY lol
Best comment here.
Like can’t shake off them alien titties!

R.I.P admiral ackbar 1983 - 2017,Lost but never forgotten
x6x batman it was a hell of a ride
It's a trap! One might say that he was the chosen one
o7 Home One. What a way to go out.
x6x batman Top Ten saddest anime deaths of all time
He was my favorite character 😢 #TheLastTrap
The greatest irony, is that both side’s love for Star Wars is the reason they’re so willing to tear each other apart.
Tommy, "yor tear'n me apaht lisa!"
Bryce Ebert Exactly. One side is devoted the the original trilogy and good movies, and the other side is devoted to the prequels and stupid crap.
Bryce Ebert, reminds me of a joy division song.
@@Heartland.Productions so anyone who liked the new trilogy doesn't have taste in good movies.....wtf
@@imperfect_dan7519 No. I didn't really clarify sorry. I love the originals and the sequels because they are good films. The prequels are awful.
So, are rebels gonna just get giant ships and just light-speed kamikaze into star destroyers from now on?
It was pretty FUCKING effective.
10,000 Subscribers without Videos that h onnestly was my thought and I was like "ummm, why didn't they just do that to the death star with a medical frigate costs 1/20 of a star destroyer and if a ship as large as a Star Destroyer can wipe out a fleet what's the point of fleets."
They're all out of ships. And allies. I think a military victory is off the table now.
Of course. Suicide bombings via aircraft is a patented strategy for good guys fighting against an evil empire...
The CIS should've used that tactic, they had nearly limitless resources and troops.
SirToby with all the advanced technology, you don't think they have auto pilot? They can even get a droid to do it. It doesn't have to be suicide
Does no one care the admiral ackbar just died!!! He was the coolest fish in the galaxy!
I cried more than Han, Luke, and K2's deaths combined!
I think I heard him say "its a trap!" just before he died. Sad.
Wyatt Moore I think its cause how he died
he was Rey's father
Ackbar should have been the one to jump the ship into Snoke's ship. That would have been a good send off and made the movie a bit better.
The guard fight scene did something I read question about like back in 2012:
“Why doesn’t Jedi during a lightsaber block just turn off the lightsaber and turn it back on in enemy’s face?”
AND THEY FUCKING DID IT. FINALLY.
Max twice!
In one of the Swtor cinematic trailers you get to see something similar when one Jedi dual wielded a single hilt and a double-bladed lightsaber at the same time.
fucking goosebumps during that entire scene
Fifth grade playground conversations right there.
Jeje The Human Oh sir incredible adult, since you decided to bless us with your presence, would you do us mere fifth-graders an honor of educating us on your mysteries of having an adult conversation then?
Why wasn't this whole trilogy planned out ahead of time?
only god knows
They probably did have it planned out, it’s just that rian johnson took too many creative liberties.
@@llla_german_ewoklll6413 It's Kathleen Kennedy's job to stop shit like that.
I have a theory that disney intentionally screwed this trilogy as part of a sophisticated marketing technique to gain tons of hype and chatter through outrage. Screwing up releases has become common in games and movies so I’m sure we’ll start catching onto this next generation approach
@@HULKHOGAN1 or they are just incompetent. George Lucas put his trust in the wrong people. But they had the money so...
lick
ITS SALT.
I don’t like salt. It’s coarse and rough and irritating. And it gets everywhere.
Watsonisawesome lmao also im surprised no one noticed director gareth edwards next to him
oh shit, that was gareth edwards?
Prathap Kutty oh damn I felt like the guy looked fimiliar!
Prathap Kutty I had a feeling a few times they'd throw the director in, like quick shots when an x wing blows up or something
Tauren Guy oh yeah. it was really him, good catch ;)
Phasma's death was so irrelevant Chris didn't even mention it lmao!
TheSubPredicate if it's a death, that fall is trope fall which is rather 50/50 on if they die or not.
TheSubPredicate if she was dead they would have shown it.
Maybe she is not dead (i hope)
I think she got the Boba treatment? :))
What's the point of her character anyways? Basically a foil to Finn
I totally thought Luke was gonna raise his X-Wing outta the ocean
JoMas right!!!!
That would have been cool.
That's an expectation, and they intentionally tried to avoid every single one you might have had. And the film suffered heavily for it.
Thought he would have done fucking SOMETHING!!
First he has to raise his career out of the swamp
I hated the rose storyline. She’s a great actress, but it didn’t need to be in the movie as much.
THAT'S EXACTLY HOW I FEEL!!!!!
She was alright until they ended it with the romance kiss scene
she was okay until that romance kiss scene
i feel like such an asshole for saying it but i really dislike her face... but its her character makes me hate her face more. im sure i could find her likable in other films
I cannot stand her character. Weird fan girl character who ruins a possibility to take out a super weapon because “hope”. I groaned any time she was on screen

WHY DID THEY HAVE TO KILL OFF ADMIRAL ACKBAR I WAS SO HEARTBROKEN
I know, right? It would've been better if he was the one on the suicide ship, instead of Holdo
IsaiahChavezCA the actor died
I know! And it just gets a brief mention.
Crash Wrong. Both the actor in the costume & the voice actor are very much alive & well.
TheSkipRow Gaming Yea. I have to say, Haldo wasn’t necessarily a bad character, but I think it would’ve been much more powerful had they placed Ackbar in charge while Leia was still healing & made him the one to sacrifice himself.
I don't think that the kid Force user will necessarily play an important role in the future. They just wanted to show that there is hope in the galaxy and that people are waiting to be led into better lives.that's all.
The Force Awakens, around the galaxy.
Maidros Fëanoron I think he might be Snoke in disguise, back to his old tricks!
I always thought what if the Vader's childhood was showed before we have met the adult Vader. It would be much more powerful. I am not saying that is the case with that kid but imagine the possibilities.
So, basically, back to A New Hope! Small band of rebels vs evil empire! ESB and RoTJ may as well have never happened! :D
That's the way I took it. That there are force users everywhere & there's hope.
I am so sad that Papa Ackbar died, may he Rest only In the very best of Pepperonies...
It would have been a lot more badass if he went out with the cruiser instead of that purple haired btch
It really was a trap
Joshua Regalado Yeah, but the guy who played him died, so yeah.
Admiral ackbar died, I have no will to live
Honestly I didn't even notice that he died... lol.
A little sad to see this after Rise of Skywalker came out and made a lot of what Chris liked about Last Jedi irrelevant.
Yeah, it's sad that he says here that he can't wait to see what they do in episode 9
I liked Rise of Skywalker. Loved TFA. Did not like The Last Jedi. It feels like three different Star Wars groups now. Those that loved the Original Trilogy. Those that appreciated the prequels. Those that didnt mind the Disney Trilogy. For me it makes no nevermind. Live long and prosper, Star Wars die hards.
- a simple Trekker 🖖
I love the original trilogy. I appreciate episodes 1 and 2 but they’re just not rewatchable for me. ROTS is almost as good as the original trilogy. I even liked the sequels up until ROS. I felt like ROS contributed nothing to the plot. I hate that they brought back Palpitine. Kylo Ren should have been supreme leader and they needed to come up with a clever way to bring an end to the sequel trilogy.
@@omieg89 agreed, palpatine living lessens Vader's sacrifice for Luke and makes the ending celebration scene on Endor not as poignant :(
Rian J made TFA irrelevant so what is your point exactly?
I'm gonna be honest when leia started superman flying back to the ship after being blown up and flung into space I started laughing my ass off
I'll admit that that scene was shot in a way that made it more hilarious than emotional, and I loved this movie overall.
She was in space for like 40 seconds. An absolutely normal person can stay conscious for 30 seconds. They can stay alive for about 5 minutes.
Same here lmfao
Same here.
There's already memes about 'Leia poppins' and the movie only just came out. I preferred the infamous 'jedi rocks' scene more than that shit.. Yikes.
RIP ADMIRAL ACKBAR
What? He died? When?
ITS A COP OUT
yes. When Leia got blasted into space.
CCTV9 Bruh Admiral is laying in wait.
Leia is Mary Poppins: CONFIRMED.
Yondu is Mary Poppins!!
Ike Plek I'm Mary Poppins y'all
Leia is Superman's real mother
that moment when u realize they free the horses, but leave the child slaves behind.
You say that as if they had a choice. What were they suppose to do? Release those kids into the Canto Bite wilderness where they'll starve to death? Or take them along with them into a bloody war zone where they'll probably be obliterated by laser fire? If you haven't noticed, the rebellion don't keep kids around. Leaving those kids where they were was kind of there best option for the time, and I'm sure they planned on rescuing them after the First Order is defeated and the war is over.
@@HOTD108_ good idea. Leave the kids behind, even though there would be a chance they would survive and have a future instead of slavery for the rest of their lives
@@HOTD108_ or take them and drop them off on another part of the planet and get them once they escape the first order.
Lol and those slave kids are going to be the ones to clean up that mess.
@@mansifacio5458 bring kids into a warzone vs leave them where they are, where they have food and shelter until the end of the war. Pretty obvious choice.
It got very emotional when Luke said to Leia: "No one is ever truly gone."
JVAL123 *gone
why is that emotional?
he was referring to bringing back Anakin despite everyone in his life telling him that he was gone. I welled up in that moment in the film. Strongly disliked it as a whole though
Joel Mais not really since Carrie Fisher died most people see it like that
NarcoticDimension For the star wars lore it's because Luke knew he was going to probably go away, as per reality it's actually Carrie who went first. So there's that impact that we probably won't see Leia anymore, specially when the people behind star wars vowed not to use CGI to bring her back.
When Rose rams Fin out of the way, she should have taken his place in sacrificing herself and destroying the cannon. It would have better explained the small hole from the massive cannon, being interrupted mid fire, and it would have been a better conclusion to her and her sister's story.
I Control My Fate I think you misread my comment.
All i can say is Rose, while is a great addition to the saga, actually is a expendable character. I agree with your idea, I'll give the movie a much better ending and a perfect end to Rose's storyline
Headline Kid24 definitely
She ended killing herself to accomplish the opposite of the goal. I didn’t get it.
I think it serves a better purpose to show the fans that Fin and Rey's mutual feeling for each other is a strong and powerful friendship and not a romance. that we are reading way too far into Fin and Rey's relationship. In episode 8, for an entire movie, we are given zero evidence to support a love interest in either Rey's character for Fin or in Fin's Character for Rey. This is analagous to Harry Potter's relationship with Hermoine in the Harry potter novels.
Benicio Del Toro says the most meaningful line in the entire movie - "Finn, let me learn you something, partner. It's all just a big machine. Live free and don't join".
David Krolak Disney is the machine
His character PURELY existed in order to say that line, which is the entire problem with the film. There are a lot of people who LOVE the concept of “Grey area”. They think it makes things “mature” and “complex”. It’s sounds great... in idea. But 90% of people who attempt to tell “Grey” stories fail because Grey isn’t ACTUALLY more complex. It’s usually just bland.
I could be wrong but I think we’ll see a lot of people who lobbe this film for what they feel like it does symbolically for things they support like diversity, feminism, animal rights, etc. but in the end, I think it will age poorly as people realize that there’s not a tua;ly anybody to care about or root for in this film. I’ve already seen people talking about how great this movie is going to “for the kids!” Because of the social agenda it promotes, but I’m like “what kid is going to want to sit through this ultra-long, tedious, boring film?”
The Grey area stuff is going to bore kids more than it bored me. Who is the villain of this film? Kylo Ren? Nope. He’s just bad because Luke failed him and then outright refused to try to make it right. So is Luke the bad guy? Nope. Yoda doesn’t think so and neither should we, apparently. He was just following the dogma of the Jedi Order and their boring and apparently misguided teachings about The Force. So The Jedi need to go away says Luke and Yoda. Except then Luke says The Jedi are just beginning.
What? It’s not more interesting because it’s Grey. It’s just muddy, tedious, and too unfocused for something that’s pure fiction and doesn’t actually matter.
I’ve just got to say how brilliant ‘the biggest teacher, failure is’ from Yoda is, thats my favourite
David Krolak that part
JazGalaxy I don't think this one was "feminist." I had that thought about the Force Awakens after I saw it for the first time, and before hearing any reviews or anyone talking about it. This one does have the animal cruelty stuff, but I don't think that's necessarily bad. People are going to hate on that aspect of the Last Jedi because it was shoehorned in. I guess some people might get upset that diverse characters were also thrown in without any consideration for the tone or pacing, but once again, that's really more of a problem with the writing than with the idea of diversity overall. 8 isn't nearly as bad as 7 in that respect.
I love how you always shout out people who helped you, towards the beginning of the video, and not just put them in the description, at the very bottom, that no one reads. That's good shit, thumbs up to you.
I am genuinely suprised that they didn't kill off Rose by the end of the film.
Doctor M I also thought she is better off dead.
I was honestly getting ready to start clapping when Finn was trying to kill him self. Than that bitch continued to make the movie bad.
SHAZBOT his sacrifice would have made him a better character and a closure.
Doctor M My guess is that she could be killed in the next one I think
Rose is cancer
When the casino world scene started I correctly guessed it was the one scene in the movie where I could safely take a bathroom break.
I felt that way for about half the movie.
I thought Martin Scorsese took over the movie
Haha same
I did this too lol
I thought that'd be a good place on 2nd viewing and decided to ride it out and wound up loving that whole sequence, it's a welcome adventure sandwiched between some very dramatic scenes.
I just wish Admiral Akbar had been the one to kamikaze into the star destroyer instead of it just being stated that he has been killed.
lol RIP Akbar
I imagine that would have sparked an internet/news controversy considering his name
Hmm yeah didn't think about the political aspect of that idea haha. Even still though, I just wish there had been a more fitting way for his character to go out other than: "Oh by the way everyone on the bridge execpt for the princess is dead and that includes Akbar." ya know?
He's a joke character stop caring so fucking much about ackbar
the bad guys would be like "what are they doing?" and Akbar would say "it's a trap!" and suicide
I actually loved the opening skit “oh hi Chris”
Jenn Dear same.
You're tearing us apart! 😭
disagree
It's interesting because The Room is as good as TLJ!!!
Imagine... snoke was secretly tommy wiseau the whole time
you are tearing my lightsaber apart!
Night Pasta Lisa
anyway,how is your sex life?
You're tearing me apart Kylo! *Literally*
Ooo hi Luke
-Rose: My sister is dead because she faught for the rebellion cause and you, Finn we're our hero, but now you are trying to escape and I hate you.
-Finn: Now I am going to save the rebellion by sacrificing myself.
-Rose: Nooooo! I won't let you save what me and my dead sister have been fighting for! Instead I will risk both of our lives and everyone else's because I love you now!
Dangerz Own yuuuuuuuuuup
First I don't think she ever hated him. She was just disappointed at what he was doing but she didn't understand he wasn't a coward, he was trying to save Rey. And the "love" she had for him is misunderstood - it's an admiration type of love, not boyfriend/girlfriend love. A lot of people are shitting WAYYY too hard on this movie.
Love is the most egoist sentiment there can be sometimes. You care about that person alone, an you say "fuck you" to the rest of people.
The last of his kind I see what you're saying. But why put your (Rose), life at risk to stop somebody from saving your whole team? Because you "love" Finn, even though it is misplaced? It makes me hate you, (Rose) as a character. This movie was all over the place for me. When ANYBODY died in this movie, I didn't give a shit. Because the movie made everyone too easy to hate. Like Chewbacca. He didn't say anything and I was annoyed by him.... This movie doesn't deserve a pass, just because it is StarWars. 5.5/10
The pacing could have been better for sure. The Rose/Finn thing was just kind of "mehh" at best but I didn't hate it. I'm glad Finn didn't die. Rose sacrificed herself (in my opinion) because she felt that Finn was way more important to the Resistance than she was. (But the more I think about it, is he?) Guess it all remains to be seen.
personally, i think that episode 9 should begin with her funeral, that she dies of natural causes, and the opening scene is sort of a tribute to her. i think that would be the most respectful way to handle it
Saturday Morning Cheap Seats yeah, i agree
If it does happen I want to see Han have a joint funeral with her.
SO, space cannot kill her but a fucking blood clot or some shit can?
michael ponder they were never gonna kill her off but now its the only realistic and respectful thing to do. Her living in space wouldve been gone into more deeply if Carrie Fisher didnt pass.
POssibly, but she died before this came out and the film could have been edited to just let her go on screen, vs in a crawl. You literally had the footage to take Leia out in a way that honored Carrie's wishes. I mean, she did not even serve a purpose in the film after her Superman scene. They had Leia flying through space as just some afterthought. It is sloppy and now it is gonna be a shit show trying to handle her character without being able to show her.
24 minutes and not a single second spent on general hucks
Harry The Sailor that is because Hucks is a shitty poorly implemented character. And bringing up how he made each scene he was in crappy and tore away any facade of strength the first order gave off would mean maybe his review isnt quite right.
@@joshpexk1215 he had so much potential after the force awakens, could have been the next Tarkin, but they literally wiped the floor with him.
It's Hux
Alexandru Minzatu Rian ruined him in The Last Jedi, and JJ just went and buried him in TROS.
@@jamesglovecrazy given where episode 8 left Hux I think what JJ did with him in 9 was the best we could ask for.
Kylo ruined it with the world domination. That's a beginner's fault. Never talk about your world domination plans on a first real date with a chick.
Martin Zyka It worked for Anakin
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo it didn't.
He talked about sand
It's just those dark side guys. They need to change their plan sometimes if they ever wanna get laid.
"Let's rule the galaxy together" is just not a good pick up line.
Also, why the dark side always want to rule the galaxy? What's so great about it anyway. Kylo doesn't seem to have this child-like joy from dominating others like The Emperor, I think he would be 100 times happier on a lonely island with Rey.
Just saying.
remember to always to start off the first session by asking her if she's an angel.
So sand in the ass crack is a bigger turn-on than ambition? Ladies, could you please confirm? If so, that explains the Tatooine like barren wasteland that is my love-life. (Note to self: delete line about wanting to establish my own Reich from Tinder profile)
The most heartfelt part of this whole film for me was when Luke looked out into the sun from his island and you notice there's another sun rising up behind the clouds. In the New Hope, Luke would look out into the two sun and the vast beyond in Tatooine before he began his journey and adventure with Obi-Wan Kenobi. That last moment before Luke disappeared really nailed it for me. Tears.
brocky and they played the same (version) of the song from a new hope, "binary sunset" that song makes me cry.
I absolutely loved that little nod to the original movie
Love that moment too but I wasn't sad at Luke's death. I was actually feeling the same way Rey must have felt when she realised Luke had died coz I saw what an amazing and complete life he lived he completed his purpose and looked at the twin suns realising how and where his journey started and how far he has come
kartikey dhingra same
The look on Luke's face when he thought, "At least I won't have to be in the next movie."
Is it just me who really wanted Kylo and Ray to join sides. And have a ying and yang dynamic, a balance between the dark side and the light. And for the Jedi and Sith to end ?
That would have been amazing, but it's Disney, there has to be bad guys and good guys....
Yes, but it is yin*
It is pronounced yeen, or in English, yen.
But yeah, you're right.
Yeah, I'd have loved it, if they had a dynamic like Professor X and Magneto. Trying to achieve the same thing in different ways, but no..... it has to be good vs bad. No mixed forms.
Yes! i wanted it so bad. Kylo's ideas about leaving the past behind, that trying to follow the darkside or the lightside only isn't working that they should be striving for balance, is good but his methods are not of course. But i secretly wished she would have taken his hand in that thrown room.
It would have been interesting, also did anyone at all feel sexual tension between kylo and Rey because I didn't, but my friends are convinced that they felt it. Can anyone confirm this and explain where and why?
18:51 the best line out of chris’ entire videography
Me playing Metal Gear Solid V
@@johngreen8921 same.
I think they killed off Admiral Akbar because his voice actor passed away.
Hunter Dvorak Sadly that’s probably true.
I wouldn't be surprised if, with Carrie Fisher's passing as well with how the TLJ ended, they actually do another time skip for Episode IX, though not 30 years; maybe something like 10.
It would give a reason for why Leia wouldn't be there (they could say that Leia simply died of age or illness, but not before becoming another legend or something), how the Resistance could rebuild their numbers and military forces with new allies and their renewed vigor to keep fighting, and allow Rey and Ben to get more of a footing in their new positions as the last Jedi (who might try to succeed where Luke failed) and new Supreme Leader respectively.
Hunter Dvorak RIP Eric Bauersfeld.
Life is a never ending trap of which you have escaped.
Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t he die where the bridge was bombed causing all officers and Leia sucked into the vacuum of space? Before Admiral Holdo was to assume leadership the lady announce that all officers except Leia,who is in critical condition but stable, have died.
He deserved a worthy death, maybe he should have sacrificed himself with Holdo
i think the BEST emotional pace in this film people forget to mention is
how Emotional Chewie is after Han died and how luke just keeps Rey outside the door knocking "Go away leave me alone!" and Chewie KNOCKS the fucking door down
"LOOK MAN WE NEED YOU!"
"Chewie!?"
"Hans DEAD! HELP US!"
"O SHIT!"
maybe people forget because it was... forgettable? like the entire movie?
Bolek Lolek oh please luke scene eith kylo alone was badass
Did you see that Rey took the books, and Yoda KNEW IT. Saying there was nothing in the tree she did not already have with her.
You see them at the end when Finn grabs a blanket from a drawer in the Falcon
EileenGallia I thought I saw them.
Yes I saw them... it made me lol in the theater.
EileenGallia yeeeeeaah i thought it was the books! I was kinda confused because it didn’t consider she could’ve taken them
"There's nothing in those books that she does not already possess" I totally wrote it off and then when I saw them in the drawer I remembered he said that. Yoda you sly devil.
EileenGallia does that undermine all the weight of burning the tree in the first place?
"I did not hit Rey, it's not true, it's wookie shit, I did not hit her!
Oh hi, Hux"
B+
Would've given an A but you forgot "I did not" at the end.
Adam Driver was absolutely fantastic. I dont go to a see a Star Wars movie for great acting, but Drivers performance was incredibly intense and believable. The bad guy as a damaged, narcissistic te, needy teenager. Also loved the design of this film, the use of the colour red, the golden stormtrooper suit, the dingy interirors vs battle scenes in the daylight. The CGI creatures were all interesting to look at. The Last Jedi is B+ for me.
"golden stormtrooper suit"?
What golden Stormtrooper outfit?
He means Phasma
joseph4861 better than before? Last time he was a fucking crying puusy
WANAKO that is how he was written. His portrayal was good.
I liked when phasma says
“You were always scum” to Finn but he just says
“Rebel scum”
I liked the part when it ended.
It's too bad they killed Phasma off when she finally did some cool shit.
W A T C H T H O S E W R I S T R O C K E T S
Forgotten Syrup Pity
+Yobfish I'm going to sew myself something with 'rebel scum' embroidered on it. In Aurebesh.
At the scene where the Rebel ship hyperspeeds through Snokes ship, it was quiet and all of the sudden some guy in the theater said “That’s so fucking cool” and everyone just died laughing
Someone in my theater said ‘allahu akhbar’ lmao
yeah, it looked cool, but it was, just like so many other things in this movie, complete and utter horseshite. It shits on the Star Wars lore.
I said "So THAT'S why you always need to properly calculate your hyperspeed jumps."
That was so fucking cool. Everyone was quiet at that moment too. Most visually stunning moment in the movie.
Teral Pop How is that funny? Using the word "cool" is very uncool, especially in a tense cinema.
Just about every movie in cinema history has its' respective "take a pee break" moment. For "The Last Jedi", it's the entire "Canto Bight" scene! You could go out for a four-course dinner during that, and not miss anything!
u would miss world building and finn's entire character arc.
@@Yoda-wf6bu the world building is pretty poor and fin doesn’t even have a real arc in this movie nor even in the trilogy lmao
@@Yoda-wf6bu Finn’s character arc happened in The Force Awakens. Canto Bight has fuck-all going on in terms of his character since his development in that portion is completely washed away by the whole “not fighting what we hate, but saving what we love” scene, where his developed character has a chance to actually do something with that development, only for Rose to fly in at the last minute and basically say he was fine where he was at the beginning of the movie, since that’s exactly what Finn was trying to do at the beginning of the movie: save the person he loved, Rey (not romantically, at least according to RoS, they have, or at least had, legitimate chemistry and friendship). At the end of the movie, Finn has become more invested in the larger conflict at play and sees a chance to save a cause he now holds as being something he is willing to die for. Only for Rose to stop him and send him back to where he was at the beginning of the movie. So Finn never had an arc in this movie.
@@thegrapethief5514 so you just explained his arc in TLJ, lol. Imagine thinking a character has to die for his arc to be complete, or whatever. Rose saved him just as he wanted to save Rey, or everyone else for that matter. Tell me you wouldn't do the same. Tell me you'd watch a friend of yours risk their life for something that might not work at all. Finn's mere thought of sacrificing himself for the whole Resistance completes his arc.
@@i-deni-i5138 “Rose saved him just as he wanted to save Rey” that’s the point I’m making. That’s where Finn was at the beginning of the movie. He lacked much investment in the larger conflict at hand and solely cared about saving his friends. Which is essentially what Rose tells him to do at the end of the movie since his action at the end wasn’t completing his arc because he was going to die, it was completing his arc because he was now invested in the conflict and was willing to sacrifice in order to protect the cause. Rian didn’t even have to set up Finn dying, he could have just put his life in serious danger to protect the Resistance and it would have gotten his growth across. But no, Rose swoops in at the last minute and tells Finn that sacrificing himself to protect a cause he believes in is stupid because he needs to be a leader or “save what he loves” (EVEN THOUGH THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS TRYING TO DO. God this movie is so fucking stupid and that scene in particular is hilariously ironic considering Rose’s actions directly caused lots of people to die and reduced the surviving Resistance to an even smaller number.) even though the movie earlier painted Admiral Holdo’s thing as extremely heroic and great. Again, Rian didn’t need to set up Finn sacrificing himself. But he jabaits us because that’s the only thing he’s truly fantastic at: ass pulls that come out of nowhere and completely wasting any setup because having a payoff to something you set up is “predictable” in his eyes. Finn had an arc in this movie. But Rose’s dumbass line sends him right back to where he was at the start of the movie.
Don’t believe me? Then maybe consider reading John Boyega’s interview where he talks about how he was treated in the sequel trilogy, and let me tell you that he does not have nice things to say about how he felt Finn was used in The Last Jedi. Then again you TLJ fans don’t seem to care what the actors think because of course only the writers could possibly have good ideas on what to do with characters and what they’re like.
I thought the same exact thing about Kylo’s mask mirroring Vader’s after it was crushed!!!
"It's like poetry, so that they rhyme"
Same I saw it as well
tbh he looks like a halo reach lego lmao
yes and i wasn't sure if i were imagining it.
IsaiahChavezCA yep. I thought the same thing
Let's be honest where the fuck is Luke's Green Lightsaber
Connor Savage With Luke's son.
the only thing i can think of is he lost it when kylo blew everything up
im assuming that because he separated himself from the force he wouldnt want anything to do with it, as seen when he tosses anakin's over his shoulde. Who knows, maybe rey will go back to the temple and find it in the rubble.
still another movie. This most invalid arguement against the movie is it didnt answer questions and thats because its the middle movie. Its not suppose to answer them.
Probably still on the X wing
Pretty sure the little kid at the end isn't a setup for the future, but more of a symbol of how There will always be people willing to fight the good fight, and also could be a nod to Rey supposedly coming from nothing
The kid at the end....with the broom..it's a handoff to Disney. The Sorceror's apprentice.
Chris then they could have completely removed that whole dumb casino sequence from the film, and just had a random kid use the force at the end.
one of my favorite lines early on is that when kylo see rey in the connection scenes he says "your not here the effort would kill you." and on a second or third watching this explains lukes death
*"You're not doing this, the effort would kill you."
I honestly thought Laura Dern's character was the worst. How do you avoid a mutiny? Let your men know the plan so they don't panic and think you've failed as an admiral. Like what reason did she have to hide the plan from Po? he even said it was a good plan once he found out what it was. IF SHE JUST TOLD HIM, finn wouldn't have recruited the traitor code breaker, the code breaker wouldn't have told them about the unarmed transport ships and the rebellion would not be 12 people. All of that happened because she thought he was so much of a hot head that he couldn't even bear to hear her plan.
Colloid yeah but at the end of the day, She was the general and Poe’s job is just to follow orders. The plan was on a need-to-know basis and Poe really didn’t need to know.
Colloid I agree that she should have told everyone the plan and that that was stupid and cost a lot of lives. However, for a different perspective I think story wise, she and the writers were trying to teach him to wait, be patient and not be so gung-ho about "blowing things up" and being rash. It's still dumb but I can sort of see what they were going for, if you only believe in the sun when you see it, you won't make it through the night and all that jazz. It was supposed to be a learning lesson, but that probably wasn't the best time for a lesson when things were so goddamn dire.
this is what bugs me about this movie, it was so dumb it's unbelievable.
I agree, I think her arrogance cost the rebellion enormously, but I think that was intentionally supposed to be the moral of the story: don't be arrogant and elitist and secretive, don't completely turn your back on one of your best pilots who risked their life for you just because they didn't exactly fall in line and obey every single order like a mindless zombie. This idea meshes well with how they characterized the champagne drinkers on Canto Bight as the worst people in the galaxy, as well as the general theme of portraying complex characters with their flaws and strengths. She made a selfless act in the end by choosing to be the one who stays behind, but part of that decision might've been that she was at least subconsciously punishing herself for her previous behavior.
Colloid I found Laura Dern kinda crinegeworthy to be honest
Lando should have been at the casino
that's who I thought it would be
I was so waiting for Lando to show up at the end and save the resistance. Is there like a Star Wars rule somewhere that there can only be one black character?
I thought he should've been working the fields at the start of Rogue One.
#OHNOYOUDIDNT
AGREED!!!!
If I'm not mistaken the actor is old and in poor health so he wouldn't be able.
Kylo gets better with each movie, and yoda was just a treat that brought be back to the originals.
I know right, puppet Yoda
Paul Singam Just like in the first trilogy
I was totally psyched to see Yoda return, only to have his character completely changed for comic relief. He was the Grand Master of the Jedi Order and one of the stauches defenders of the Jedi Code. And now he's like: "Well all those books passed down over many generations of Jedi, which I have stuck to for almost my entire over 900 year long life are basically all shit and Rey, who has neither been trained nor read any of the lore is just more powerful than the compiled knowledge of the Jedi Order?! Fuck that!
Fabian Fischer have you not seen the originals? Yoda always had that wide funny humor, he was smacking r2d2 with a stick over a flashlight and sandwich
Jazzy Jeff Of course I've seen them, but Yoda just wants to test Luke's patience and see if he has what it takes to become a Jedi. Once Luke finds out that he is actually Yoda he gets much more serious.
*_Chris Stuckmann vs Star Wars Fans. Epic Rap Battles of History._*
Duarte Vader they’d be on the same side, actually, since they both agree the movie is good
@@cdagyekybcrpaa Only the millennials! Us old heads ain't jackin none of that bs
@Nikolai Belinski Why can't people just come to peace with each other, some people think the movie is good, some think it's bad, simple. You "true Star Wars fans" (whatever that's supposed to mean) always think you are superior to all other SW fans, you're not. You keep trying your hardest to convince the new audience that the sequels are shit just so you can complain even more about Disney. If you are worried that Star Wars will die, don't worry, even if the sequels were successful, SW would have died anyway. It is A FACT.
Nikolai Belinski that is literally an opinion. You really can’t argue otherwise
@@cdagyekybcrpaa no mate. Just no.
Honestly, Kylo Ren and Rey vs Snoke's guards was easily the best part in the movie - both plotwise and being straight action.
Agree
TheAwesomeDarkNinja
I fucking love snoke
Says he can’t be betrayed
Proceeds to get betrayed
Same
The wide shots in it. MY LORD had me SWEATING!
That’s why the fight scene was super shitty
RIP Admiral Ackbar
The TRAP got him in the end
He's gone to the big trap in the sky
How about RIP Luke?!
Martyr 232 His death effected me more than Luke's :(
Adam Driver as Kylo Ren was the highlight of this movie for me, his performance really resonated with me.
He is a good actor and his performance was good but his character was just a waste of time.
I didn't like his character in TFA, but I really liked Kylo in TLJ.
harriet cumberbatch
He was about the only good thing in the movie. Both he and John Boyegas were horribly underused.
i don't understand how his character was a waste of time? We literally got to know his story, that he's beyond just some whiny baby.
Harriet cumberbatch so your a unstable monster
Chris, I respect you, but I disagree with you on this one. Yes, this movie is unexpected, in the worst possible way, they cut off all interesting plot points in the movie. Who’s snoke? We don’t know. Why did kylo kill those students? We don’t know? Why is Rey so powerful? We don’t know. How can leiah use the force with no training when JJ specifically said that she had none? We don’t know. Why did kylo join snoke in the first place if he hated him? We don’t know. Why did Luke lose all hope because his student turned, but he didn’t lose hope when he fought literally the most powerful and evil being In the galaxy? We don’t know. We expected answers and we never got any, your misrepresenting lazy writing with it being unexpected. If that’s the case, i can shit on a poster board and hand it in for an art project, and i will deflect all criticism by saying its unexpected. You are completely wrong about Poe, btw. If he listened to Leia, and pulled out, everybody would be dead. He sacrificed a few bombers for the safety of the entire resistance. Also, there is now reason for Haldo to keep the plan away from Poe. If she truly thought he was a fly boy, keeping an “arrogant and hot headed” person like him in the dark is the worst possible solution. If she thought there was a spy on board, that would t have mattered because she revealed it to everyone when she started fueling the transports. A spy would be able to relay that message back to the first order in no time. That was just a classic plot hole.
The stable boy creeps me out because he's force sensitive and he's a slave. We all know how that went with Anakin.
Sage Wolf but he could be the chosen one lmao
But is he actually force sensitive?
Роман Мемников He pulled the broom with no training in the force. I would say so.
aerea you don't need training in the force to pull the broom
aerea I always thought pulling something towards you was the simplest thing to do with the force
I loved Force Skype
living the baldo life i dont know if you are saying it ironically but i thought it was dope.
BAHAHAHA Now when the film comes out on Bluray I need an edit where the dialing skype sound happens when theyre being connected
ForceTime
FORCED!!....SKYPE
living the baldo life I’m so glad Kylo made an online friend
Okay but I really wanted Rey to lift Luke’s X wing from the water..
Carolina Herrera but then the idiot fanboys would just complain that its too similar to Empire
Empire Strikes Back anyone
Carolina Herrera
After Rey left on the Falcon, I thought he would raise up his X-wing near the end. Didn't think he would use Force projection (if that is what it is called).
Rey didn't even had a good training like Luke had from Yoda in the first trilogy...sooo dissapointing
So did I.
Who's watching after Episode 9??
Its hard trying to see if 8 or 9 is worse. Probably 9.
Nioshadow I’d definitely say 8 because 9 is so bad mostly because of what happened in 8. Rian Johnson basically ruined 2 Star Wars movies.
Kylo_Ryan without a doubt the fan backlash ruined episode 9 and what would have been an original and thoughtful story.
@Kylo_Ryan you are absolutely correct. TROS is basically a retconned TLJ. Star wars fans are suckers for fan service
Memory Lane.
I'll be purely honest. When Rose 'saved' Finn from sacrificing himself to save the Resistance and give one last middle finger to the First Order, I literally shouted out "Oh FUCK YOU!"
Such a perfect and character-defining moment ruined because "i wuv you gimme kissies"
Jack Healy lol, agree
I face palmed.
Agreed
Plus how the hell did she even make it? they were driving the same thing and one would assume that finn was on max speed?
Like Chris I have a lot of problems with the entire Finn/Rose subplot but everything else is absolute gold.
Jack Healy Basically self insert fan fiction.
"I'm Mary Poppins Y'all"... Princess Leia should've said that
Tureta PB lmfao, possibly the funniest line in GotG2. Would have worked great. Definently would have improved this train wreck Johnson and Disney created.
marry poppins is better than marry sue...
also she was in space for fuck sakes......
Tureta PB lol I don't know man. It worked well in Guardians of the Galaxy II.
Was he cool?😉
So many ppl are like I cannot believe Luke tryed to kill Kylo. If you actually watch the movie that’s not at all what happens. Luke himself admits that he had a moment of darkness and ignited his saber and almost immediately regretted it and never did anything. Also it was pretty well established that Kylo was already turned to the dark side by Snoke by this point went batshit crazy and massacred almost the entire jedi academy Anakin-style and thought he even killed Luke or left him for dead. What do ppl not understand about how that would change Luke. How could anyone still be the same person after something like that. I mean com-on, Obi-wan literally dismembered Anakin and left him for dead burning to death in a lake of lava for god sakes because he turned to the dark-side. I don’t think what Luke did was unlike him at all when you really think about it.
Beth B
He did want to kill Kylo but the thought quickly left his mind.
Not one word of what you said is true Beth B. We are given two perspectives of the same event and you have decided that only one perspective is correct when in fact, both are.
This is my argument to "Luke killing young Kylo is butchering the character":
FIrst off, if you met 14 years old Hitler and knew what atrocities he would execute in the future, you bet your ass you'd at least be tempted to kill the boy.
Secondly, wtf why do they think Luke is some kind of perfect all round saint? In the originals there were at least two or three times he fell to the dark side. He struck down an "unarmed(of course Palpatine was armed with his force lightning but Luke didn't know that)" old man with intent to kill just because he was taunted to do so. He struck his own father out of pure rage, almost killing him in the process. It was only the Palaptine's premature taunting "DO IT" that snapped Luke out of it and saved him from falling down to the dark side. Luke is not Jesus Christ; he is highly emotional character and almost fails A LOT.
Third, it's called a fucking character arc. In the originals his arc was a journey from young whiny boy to a jedi. In the sequal series, it's his transformation from a failed teacher to a true jedi master. It's what makes him human, and not emotionless godlike character.
Varys// I also wish they flashed out more of Kylo's initial fall, and I'm assuming they are planning to make some spin off series like tv series or books on that background story (mmm money money money). But to play the devil's advocate here, it was demonstrated time and again that a force user can detect another force user from far far away, so I don't have hard time accepting Snoke could find young Kylo easily. And Kylo felt he was abandoned by his parents when he was sent to Luke's jedi training ground, and it's not entirely uncommon for kids of that young age who were sent away from home to places like boarding school or whatever to have that rage-like feeling towards the parents and the people around them.
But yeah, we could've used more background information on.....you know, Snoke. It was classic fan theory bait.
A third of the movie is spent with Finn and Rose going on a wild goose chase rather than fleshing out important characters.
It's nice for a change to see a review that isn't all nerd rage and hating on the movie. I agree, the movie gets a lot of undeserved trolling and vitriol. I liked the unexpected and the action sequences. I also agree that the casino planet was a head-scratcher. It wasn't a perfect movie but it was good.
there’s quite a bit of bad (especially the casino). and the bad is pretty bad. BUT, this movie has a lot of good, and when it’s good it is amazing imo
FINALLY, someone positive
@@isaacmccall7162 "and when it is good, it is amazing" couldn't have said it better... or written it better.
It's unfortunate that Finn got the "Bilbo" treatment in this movie after having an interesting character arc in the past film. I'm honestly trying to think of a reason why he was even in the movie. He accomplished nothing of value for the story. Not just the Canto Bight subplot, but pretty much his entire character's involvement in the plot could have been cut out and nothing would be missing in the story.
samzilla567 And when he is about to destroy the weapon, that will expose and destroy the resistance (and finally do something meaningful), he's then blasted out of the way by Rose......
I mean, he killed phasma...
AlexanderKrah That's honestly no feat, when Phasma herself is twice as useless of a character as Finn...
I assumed it was to set him up for ep. 9 as a real resistance hero. Since at the end of 7, he was still doing what he was doing for Rey, and still continually wanted to run away. I took this as his arc to really understand why he should care about fighting the first order, and why he should stop being a coward. Not just for one person (as in Ep7), but for everyone, even people he doesn't know and never will. He also finally was able to actually take down one of his fears (Phasma) which has probably given him the confidence to believe that HE can make a difference. That HE can truly overcome his problems HIMSELF and not only when people (Rey, Chewie, Solo) are around to help him.
That's a bit jumping the gun he definally does alot and it does pay off at the end
The best part of the film is when Rey and Kylo fight the red guards. I hope those characters could come back in a way
Those guards must be weak and incompetent asf, if they're incapable of protecting Snoke. They got beaten by REY! Not just Rey, WEAK ASS KYLO!
Rey and Kylo together are very powerful.
If you think either Kylo or Rey are weak, you have a serious lack of understanding of the story.
I agree with nihil but not in the way he thinks. Rey is a mary sue so she can beat anything even though she should be a piss weak. Kylo is apart of feminist disney so he will be a weak baby compared to everyone. Isnt it great how mary sue is the strongest can beat kylo and kylo can beat luke rofl what a joke these movies are.
bobfaget100 Couldn't have put it better myself.
The Casino Scene felt more like The Hunger Games than Star Wars. And Where TF are the Knights of Ren??
Ezequiel Occhionero the knights are dead
The knights are the Praetorian Guards
those guys in the throne room i would think.
Oh shit you nailed that. Good call!
Ezequiel Occhionero Maybe episode IX?
I loved the Last Jedi but that finn and Rose story line was bad and not needed
I agree, it’s a great movie but they should have just stayed, then the plot would be great rather then ok
@@Anon24052 ummm, no. There are still many glaring plot holes in this movie.
Drew Bottle everything with Rose should be DELETED
Finn and Rose are the icing on the cake with this movie's errors.
Same!
Anyone else spot Gareth Edwards in the trench next to the guy that tastes the salt ?
Toby yep! Thought I was the only one that saw that, I wasn't 100% sure but I guess I was right.
I saw it immediately and I got so happy
Yep. I saw him.
Yep recognised him first time.
Rip Admiral Ackbar
Drew Harrison Only death I cared about
How can we ever sense if there is a trap...
Drew Harrison On crip
His death was so shit that I didnt even notice he died till after the movie
Can we discuss the absolutely beautiful scene where the rebel ship hyper jumps into Snoke's ship. I mean DAMN THAT WAS AMAZING!
Jordan Green that was some of the best effects i have seen in a movie it was amazing
That scene remided me of anime
One of the best scenes in the movie. Amazing effects!!
Makes you wonder why taking out the Death Star and Star Killer Base was so hard
in the theater i was in everyone was shocked into silence at how beautiful it was which made it more breathtaking
I pretty much agree with everything he said about the movie. For me the only thing that really held it back was the whole casino thing, besides that I thought it was the best one and I grew up with and loved the original trilogy. There was a lot of sweet moments that you never seen coming. They really went for it and took a lot of chances, for the most part I felt they paid off.
The fight with Kylo Ren and Rey against the guards was so amazingly done!
Italian Turtle i agree, i only sometimes miss the fastness of swordfighting from the prequels, where anakin would move so fast against droids and stuff. Besides that, amazing movie
Also the 3D Ambers in the air enhacned that scene.
Italian Turtle they should’ve teamed up and done something different in this franchise for a change but of course you gotta have the obvious good and evil. I wanted more of that scene.
Berta Kriel the only fast fightscene in the PT is Anakin vs Obi Wan.
Have you seen mace window vs palpatine? Its incredibly slow and horribly shit
Andrew Joseph Fabo I honestly think them teaming up would be too predictable, and they are doing something more than just good and evil. Multiple times in the film, characters reference how the war between good and evil is never-ending and that in the end, no one side is truly one or the other. So, When Kylo tells Rey that he wants to burn it all down and restart, he's not entirely wrong. The empire will always come back in some unless there is no rebellion in some way. The question is not who is good or who is evil, but rather how do we stop this war? There are no easy answers In the film, and that's why I can't wait for episode IX. For the first time in a long time, I don't know what happens next in Star Wars
Leia using the force to pull herself back into the ship was pretty terrible.
Jordan Hageman absolutely its outrageous my childhood is ruined ! How dare she! Lets protest!
I thought it was Kylo secretly doing it.
I mean she’s force sensitive. What is she supposed to do just die because she’s supposed to lol
I dont mind that part just because it felt like an homage to Carrie Fisher and they were probably missing some of her shots
If you read the comics you would know she was able to use the force
No one hates Star Wars more than Star Wars fans 😕
Caleb Kebab Damn Star Wars fans, they ruined Star Wars..
And yes, that Luke death scene was painfully emotional! You may think it's lame, but the force theme and the two suns combined with the scene itself was very beautiful
Caleb Kebab no one hates Deadpool more than Detroit niggas😮😮😮😵😵
its like an abusive relationship for us fans
Sadly very accurate
13:10 something i noticed rewatching this was a bit of subtle foreshadowing they pull off earlier to this. When Kylo and Rey do the force FaceTime thing for the first time and they don’t know what’s going on Kylo says something to Rey along the lines like “how is this happening you’re not doing this, if you were you’d be dead”. Thought that was a pretty nice plant there in the dialogue, which the dialogue in this movie is pretty underrated in my opinion, especially for a Star Wars movie
The dialogues are good when they are not trying to be humourous. The worst part of TLJ is the force humour. Except for the Luke Rey scene, all the humor in this movie lands flat and seems deliberate. I guess it is a bi product of Disney
Lol FaceTime
Nice touch. Also when Luke makes fun of himself going out to face the entire First Order with a lightsaber it also comes true
This should not be the way how to make these movies. Abrams & johnson should have written the trilogie together, maybe with the help of lucas & kasdan. It's not a good idea to have a different writer for each movie of such an important trilogie.
AlvarHanso84 Same thing could be said for the MCU but most of their movies have been very good so I don't see why they should not do the same for Star Wars.
somerandomname Marvel has like 10 different movies in production, its impossible to get all its writers together, even then there is no reason to connect the Ant-man branch to Black Panther to gotg, the franchise can afford inconsistency, While Starwars which only gets yearly movies but only the odd number of years are connected, should not be getting different writers, if they mean to have a whole trilogy that is interconected they should have all the creative team to collaborate together their plans for the franchise
I agree, but I still like the way things are going with the movies
They rejected Lucas' script, those are the true sequels.
Jesus E Soltero exactly. They completely dismissed plot points they opened up in the force awakens. Either they forgot, or this writer wanted to go a different direction. There’s going to be a different writer for episode 9 too
Poe’s arc is interesting as you said but it is useless as she just could have explained him her plan from the start to avoid the mutiny. And there was no reason to hide the plan!!
lestat1886 Exactly. Chris seemed to glance over this point.
Riiiight? I was in the theater and I was literally, verbally like wtf
That pissed me off as well escaping your big ship should not be seen as a secret plan just tell the crew.
Well with her origin she’s known as very hard headed and thinks she’s superior which is probably why she didn’t tell him the plan
lestat1886 Consider this. The First Order was able to track them through hyperspace. Something that they thought was impossible. One would consider two possibilities. One is that the First Order is utilizing a new form of technology to track them( as it turned out, they were). Possibility two is, there was a traitor in the Resistance that sold them out. In that case you would keep your plans as secretive as possible, even from Poe, who, by the way, has recently been captured by the First Order and brought back a former storm trooper, claiming he was now on the resistances side. I would be keeping secrets too.
I love how this movie managed to polarize its fanbase. Like it or not, you can't accuse this movie of being a formulaic fan-service cashgrab. It took huge risks.
Very true
That is indeed true. I am bugged after seeing it last night. I want to watch a second time to have a more conclusive opinion
An Atheist's Opinion Rey is fucking OP and she is a nobody which makes me more mad because she's OP af. I think the knights of Ren is just thrown away cause they were not mentioned.
An Atheist's Opinion idk watching Vader cutting and choking people was pretty dope
Dandandan Le that’s the whole theme of the film. Anyone can have the force, they don’t have to be a Skywalker or related to someone we know like obi wan. Anakin was a slave boy on tattooine, as much of a nobody as Rey is.
Chris: WHy Is HiS hANd WeT?!?
Me: His ceiling was damp and had some plumbing problems....
It was there to depict Kylo 's sexual awakening through visual storytelling
I loved this movie for betraying my expectations.
Killing of Snoke was unexpected, and at first i was kinda let down by the fact, but then it grew on me: this will allow Kylo Ren to become a greater villain, and the trilogy shall go into a new direction, since there's no Palpatine paralel anymore.
Luke's death: i do not get why people get mad over this. He became one with the force, willingly, thus becoming even more powerful, in the words of Obi Wan Kenobi in episode IV: "If you strike me down i shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine". Also, he saw a binary sunset before merging with the force: his journey started with a binary sunset, and ended the same way, this made me tear up, it's like he visited his home, before passing away.
Rey being the daughter of nobody: i loved this. The force it's not bound to bloodlines or heritage, which is a theme related to the ending of the movie: The spark that will bring the first order down it's on the inside of the weak, the abandoned and the orphan. The force awakened, not only on Kylo or Rey, but across the galaxy, in many places. The force is not for Jedi or Sith, for it binds the universe together and it's inside every living thing.
Zidane Mina How did you react when Yoda showed up?
omg thank goodness there are fans such as you who TRULY understand what the force really represents.I think people are WAY too caught up on thinking the force is only exclusive to Jedi or Sith.Henceforth there are no sith because as the prophecy states,anakin destroyed the Sith and brought balance.Kylo is the representation of the other side,yin and yang.Lol it makes me think of how Goku gathers his power for the spirit bomb a bit.
this is probably my favorite comment here.
I kinda wish there was a little backstory though before killing of snoke, he seems very powerful and we haven't really seen his true strength, I agree for they trying to make kylo ren a greater villain and became a true villain for later episode 9.
There is still room for a backstory for Snoke in Episode 9.
Finn and rose scenes were the worst part of the movie
Colin Compton yes 👍
Colin Compton hated that part, like fun tho
Especially the end when we don't know if Rose is dead or alive.
John Barrett just like Finn in tfa
Not the only bad part of the movie, but certainly the worst one.
i’m sorry but that floating leia scene was ridiculous
It really was!
I busted out laughing and im average fan.
That was SUCH a joke, I couldn't believe what I was watching.
*Star Wars: Episode VIII - Guardians of the Galaxy.*
That was my least favorite part about the movie.
The fact that people watch movie reviews to hear other people’s opinions and then dislike the video when they don’t have the same opinion is beyond me
Tdog Reviews you just have to learn to live with other people’s opinions even if you dislike them.
I'm sure Chris is 100% fine with the dislikes, it shows how divided the SW fan base is right now and it's not really an attack on him, just his opinions on this one film.
That’s what it’s there for
Tdog Reviews no it’s just because Chris doesn’t make sense and always changes what he says every single time. He said The Last Jedi is better than Revenge of the Sith
RGkong Both have their pro’s and con’s.
That rose character got under my skin she felt so forced. Finn was one of my favorite characters in VII so to see him spend almost all of his screen time with the worst character in these two films almost ruined the film for me, and when they kissed it felt more forced than any kiss I've ever seen in film.
Ian Hathaway yup felt same way i dont hate rose but i hope finn dosent end up with her
totally agree that was the biggest flaw with this film. it would have been fine if she had a smaller part but to actually be flying these jets when she's pretty much a fucking electrician, and have so much screen time. I just endured it patiently...for the next scene to come
It looked to me like poe and rey had a moment
Ian Hathaway there was definitely some random chemistry between Poe and Rey when they met
I thought the best chemistry was between Rey and Kylo.
And Rose was unbelievably annoying. She played a caricature of the short chubby asian girl stereotype, very flattering.
I liked the Last Jedi; however, I was disappointed that we never learned who Snoke was and he was killed.
Mike Rivera at least an explanation in the movie of how he gained power and elevated The First Order.
I feel that snoke’s death could lead to the rise of kylo ren as a villain? Maybe maybe?
Joseph DeRosa- Clarinet and Saxophone I also would have liked to learn who snoke was, but it was so satisfying to see him die, but still.
Having Snoke's backstory in a comic or book doesn't cut it for me. A good franchise should allow one to simply watch the movies without having to do research to understand it.
All that hype just for Snoke to be killed after 2 movies?
How did force ghosts go from 8 bit to 4k resolution?
Nate The Great technology made them look better.
The force embraces technology
Also where did ghost Yoda get a ghost cane? Was the cane a dead Jedi as well?
So you want him to be naked too? Cause his clothes certainly were never alive.
The ghosts are projections of the Jedi. That's why Anakin doesn't look all mangled, even with the original Anakin force ghost. He came back as his younger, healthier self. They make them look how they want to look. If Yoda wants a cane he can have a god damn cane.
Puppet force-ghost yoda looked.. weird. Awful, really. My wife and I found ourselves missing the old CGI version.
man the last jedi was so good people blame disney not having a plan but all jj had to do was be a good writer and tie up was set up in this one like rian did for the The Force Awakens because he actually cared
This wasn't a bad movie, but it was far from great. It had amazing moments like the Rey/Ren vs guards scene and the Admiral crashing into the ship, but what they did with Finn in this film was just unacceptable to me. They developed him into such a great character in the first film, then in this one he is sidelined and used only to make some love triangle noone seems to care about. Rose's entire purpose in this film was to be the other love interest, and I feel that if they left her out, they could have done something better developing Finn's character as well as Phasma, who was once again very irrelevant in this film.
Phasma remains the Boba Fett of this trilogy, but with more dialogue lol.
Quinones I wouldn't say finn was a great character in the first one. if he had sacrificed himself that would've been a powerful moment. Yes the finn-rose storyline didn't work. but i don't know what else they could have have done with him.
it was just too many scenes in the movie that made me say wtf to really enjoy it. it was a wtf moment every 20 minutes. I may have to watch it again but for now.. 5/10
That's what I see too. A mediocre movie with some really good moments and true clunkers.
Quinones I thought Finns arc was great, probably better than the first.
Not only was what rose did cheesy, it undermined what Finn was doing---fighting back by saving what he loved, his friends.
Kinda felt like the writers were about to finish the story and then were like "Wait fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck there's no romance arc and nobody kissed! Hollywood isn't going to accept this"
From what I saw, Finn's mindset at that moment was not about saving his friends. It was all about not letting the First Order win, the very thing he was determined to get away from.
I was completely fine with Finn dying in that scene. His motivation made sense and he had made up his mind. He was determined to stop the First Order at the cost of his life, and it felt like a proper way to end his character arc. But no, they had to fuck it up and have Rose do some stupid shit.
Rico I completely agree. Rose's actions pissed me off to no end seeing as she could've totally fucked over the resistance by refusing to let someone sacrifice themselves.
Can we talk about the Light speed crash near the end? One of the best effects shots I've seen in a while.
Dave too bad the casino thing derailed the film
Should have been Akbar
I really enjoyed that. I always wondered what that would look like.
Kirby already did it in the Subspace Emissary.
And he did it without getting any of his buddies killed. :\
Dave why hasn’t anyone ever crashed lightspeed into anything before?
7:02 I knew I wasn't the only one who thought Yoda sounded drunk!
My boy Finn gets short changed AGAIN. If they aren't gonna make him cool then just let him sacrifice himself. Jeez.
AkilTheAwesome they wouldn't even let him sacrifice himself lol. Rose stops him from doing so In an embarssing way.
but then who would get worried whenever Rey is not on screen and ask himself Where/what is Rey?
Honestly if they didn’t want Finn to die then I feel Rose should’ve like shot a missile in the machine or something more badass then pushing him out of the way.
How did Maz Kanata get the lightsaber?
Why doesn't Rey need to train to be powerful?
How did Finn and Rose escape after crashing in front of the new AT-AT's?
Why would LUKE spare Vader yet try to murder his nephew AND become a recluse?
Why would Luke need to hide so deep if he could project himself all over the Galaxy?
Why would Luke bother leaving a map?
How did Leia fly like Superman?
Why wouldn't people lightspeed kamikaze earlier in the saga or more often in general?
Who was Snoke and why was he so powerful?
Where were the Knights of Ren?
I guess to know these answers we need to purchase the loot crates...
Some of these can be explaoned easily without the movie spoonfeeding it to you. People don't kamikazie themselves all the time because that would be stupid. You wouldn't throw your gun at everyone just because it works. Liea flew like superman because OF THE FORCE. It was painfully obvious by her hand movements that the force allowed her to do this. Luks spared Vader but thought about killing his nephew because he changed and he knew in his heart Vader cpuld change but at the time he didn't think Kylo could
Also he hid so deep so he couldn't hurt anyone else and put himself in exile. We saw how much energy it took to do that one thing and it would be very easy to kill someone when you know that they need to recharge after doing that
There was no PC propoganda except the ones people change the narrative for. You can say the casino scene was that but in the end along with other scenes iy's really just saying the world isn't black and white and that isn't very PC
Also she never trained in the Force on screen. And even if she hasn't that little boy never trained in the force but he can summon a broom to his hand
Ninjaplus Gaming here’s the thing. You wouldn’t have to kamikaze. Have a droid in an old ship hyperdrive through a star destroyer.
Or autopilot? Or hook some hyperdrives to an asteroid?
Snokes character screamed wasted potential. Heavily scared, powerful force user, witnessed the rise and fall of the galactic empire. Yet we learn absolutely nothing about him in The Last Jedi. Andy Serkis killed it in the few scenes he had though. The most disappointing aspect to me.
I think that’s Johnson’s point. That would have been obvious. They didn’t want this film to be safe, they wanted it to be original and I think snokes death really drove that in
Forreal all that hype and speculation for him to die in 2 movies
Thane Krios They had a perfectly good vehicle to show Snoke's character with the force bond between Rey and Kylo. We could have got flashbacks of how he manipulated Ben, but all we got was Luke trying to kill him because he sensed the evil.
Anuj Jain What would have been obvious? A back story or some sought of character development? Thats not asking for much. They could have handled him better, considering JJ set him up in TFA. Still think he should've had a bigger role and end up dying in the 3rd film.
I never cared about snoke or was intrigued by the mystery. Personally, I was glad he was killed off so quickly because of how uninterested in him I was. But I can see where you're coming from
Fast forward to the end of season 2 of Mandolorian...and Luke is a badass again and order has been restored to the galaxy.
Technically no. We’re just seeing two different points in Luke’s career that will inevitably tie into one another
Yes I am back
@Robert Smith Yes. Though until that physically happens, I prefer to believe that Ben liked Grogu so much he told him to go off-world before murdering everyone.
Am I the only one who's upset that admiral akbar is dead?!? I almost cried when the lady said the leaders died and they explicitly said he was dead😢 RIP Akbar he was a great squid alien man and leader may the force be with him
RIP Admiral Ackbar. The Resistance now has no defense against traps.
Well they would still run into the traps but now they have no one to point out the fucking obvious.
He should have sacrificed himself instead of purple hair.
Al Fred that would’ve been sooo damn awesome
The actor that plays him died.
"Oh, hi Chris."
Janice Columbus hahaha
The Last Jedi did not anger me as a Star Wars fan. It angered me because it made no sense and it was stupid. Rose saves Fin when he's trying to save everyone, DJ just happens to be in their cell and has a key to let them just walk out, Holdo decides to sacrifice herself only after 25 shuttles are destroyed, Holdo didn't bother to tell Poe that they had a plan, Fin drags Rose all the way back to the base in front of all those AT-ATs and TIE Fighters, I didn't understand Luke's motivation at all and what the fuck killed Luke? Then add the whole 30% subplot at the casino. It was all shit. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't have an opinion worth listening to.
Oh! and throwing Snoke away as meaningless was lazy and a prime example of how poor the writing is. Episode IX can go to hell.
yu stu "Anyone who says otherwise doesn't have an opinion worth listening to"

Nice job, bro. You know you can hate the film and not sound like an elitist, right?
I hated the kiss. It felt really trite. I agree that I think he wants it from Rey, not Rose. I didn’t feel that Rose ever really felt something for Fin either. I like be Rey and Kylo. I hope they can somehow come together to be the balance, to use light and dark but not be overcome by either. Their conversations I felt were riveting. I’m hoping in 9 that she can show Kylo what happened in his hit with Luke, how Luke felt and that he changed his mind, but it was too late. Some of the jokes felt out of place. I loved how Luke dust the dirt off, but it also felt too much from our world and not something that would have happened there. Overall I still enjoyed it and can’t wait to see it again to get a better feel for it. I also wish it had been Leia that sacrificed herself. That would have been fitting I think for her character. And maybe Luke had projected himself there to be with her in the end. I think he could have died next film since he’ll likely return as a force ghost anyway.
Lauren Wagstaff ss
Lauren Wagstaff Well they were planning to have Leia in the 9th film. It’s easy to say that now that she’s gone and to wish that they were able to give a proper onscreen end to her character. :(
Alex I mean, Vader eventually died (sure he was kinda redeemed), Emperor died, Maul died, Snoke died. For me, having Ben die isn’t exciting. His character wouldn’t really have an arc, he’d just be he baddie. Having Rey turn would have been interesting. Having Ben ALMOST turn was interesting. Having them come together to start something new is something I’d like to see explored. The bad guy dying is very Disney. Maybe Rey dies next episode and that hanged Kylo. That would also be interesting. But if you want him to get his comeuppance, that’s ok. It’s just not what I would want to see happen.
Matt V oh I know. With things as they are, I just think it would be a nice way to tie things up instead of a reel at the beginning of 9 saying ‘well, time passed and she’s dead’.
Lauren Wagstaff I think people forget Finn is looked at as a legend and hero so of course she was gonna thrown herself at him.
When I saw Luke Skywalker tossing the lightsaber, I was like “What the hell Luke”?! Couldn’t he just give the Lights back to Rey or simply put the Lightsaber down?
The first of many "wtf Ryan!" moments.
But giving it back would have shown that Luke has reverence for it
He doesn't. He's completely moved on from that, he genuinely thinks after 50+ years of the Jedi screwing up and making mistakes, that the order needs to end
It's like when someone is being really really raw and genuine about something really childish and annoying and you can't help but but want to laugh and punch their dumb faces lmao
That's the vibe that I got from Luke. The Jedi need to end. He's moved on, and here comes this random chick like "pleeeease make me a jedi" and he's honestly just sick of it
That kinda make sense? Alg if not, love from one Star Wars fan to another ❤️
Omega Maximus Well that lightsaber has the blood of children on it so I wouldn’t exactly be excited to have it back either.
