[@Bikejonze]

He was also winking that he wasn’t really there. 3PO probably knew it wasn’t really Skywalker.

[@lyravega9495]

Bikejonze That was my interpretation of the wink also. It makes sense, being that 3PO is a droid, that he would be able to tell that Luke wasn't physically there and I think Luke was trying to both tell 3PO to keep that information to himself, as well as letting him know that he hasn't forgotten him.

Any movie reviewer Disney invited to the red carpet world premiere has to be a little more lenient on the reviews they make. Especially if they ever want to be invited to the next world premiere. And it's worth mentioning that even though a lot of people ( not you ) are blaming Rian Johnson for this movie, I can not forget that Kathleen Kennedy gave the green light to all of this.

[@cally77777]

I noticed the one with the rocks first time ... yeah, makes it even funnier but awesome at the time. I mean some people appear not to like that humour. Luke brushing dust off his jacket, and the First Order guy asking Kylo if he's sure he got him. But I thought it was great. Didn't make that scene or the reveal of how he did it any less amazing.

[@cally77777]

Ok I retract the troll accusation, as it's clear from your reply you care about Star Wars as much as I do. I just felt this is was a GOOD movie compared to where the series had gone before the new films. It just seems to me almost nit picking to worry about some of these continuity issues, when we've got another great Star Wars movie (2 actually, though TFA I don't score quite so high due being somewhat derivative). Yeah maybe it wasnt the exact identical powers being used. But it's the Force, the energy field that binds the galaxy together, incomparable with the power to destroy a planet. You want to split hairs on how to limit it? Fine, if that's how you roll. I just think it'sa pity so many fans are beating themselves up over these kind of things.

[@jedidog3615]

“I came to this island to die.” Luke died on the island. “This is not going to end the way you think.” Luke talking to the audience regarding their story expectations.

Luke Zylik poop and fart jokes are at least timeless and universal; they're likely even the first jokes, as a matter of fact. "Yo mama" jokes are decidedly more contemporary and particularly douchey.

This movie is mind numbingly bad. In terms of battles it's fine; if you are a fan of lore or the star wars history this movie is like a swift kick in the nuts.

And COME ON another bloody gigantic warship with an equaly huge weakspot? Can't really say much about this, as i'm not a military man. But I guarantee that research and reasons are all justified for these choices. ***Sir they're out of the effective range of our Weapons. Well officer How about the Micro Jum into Hyperspace ahead of them and surround them in a pincer movement? Lightspeed/Hyperspace doesn't work like that. Do some research. >>>Nothing about Snoke's Origins? Amazingly powerful but can't sense ripples in the force next to his right arm? Snoke's origin aren't important to the story. Just like the Emperors weren't in the original trilogy. Same argument can also be made about Vader throwing Emperor down the shaft in RotJ. >>>Where are the KnightsOfRen? MIA? Not important to the story. They were possibly briefly mentioned though. Wait until the trilogy is over before this kind of gripe. >SuperspaceWomanLeia was complete BS: how about deflecting or shielding frim the missiles ? The force works in mysterious ways. Visually a little jarring at first, but loved how it showed Leia's powers. >>>No problem with Ackbar being killed but let it be a "CaptainGoingDownWithTheShip" move> Hyperspace Kamikaze! Hyperspace Kamikaze is one of the most breathtaking scenes ever movie history, let alone in a Star Wars movie.

Granted, this story is the weakest part in the movie. But, not useless. The message Rose puts across at the end is hope inspiring, and we actually got to see other parts of the galaxy that we haven't seen before. >>>Phasma's appearance is an insult to Gwendolyn Christies amazing acting performances! Hardly, she was used in a way that was essential to the story. Just like an homage to Boba Fett. Would i like to see more of her? Hell yes, but not disappointed. >>>How did Kylo Ren NOT notice Luke was using his old LightSaber? All Kylo saw before he got knocked out was a bright flash of light. How the fuck was he to know the lightsaber broke? When he woke up Rey and the saber was gone. For all he knew, Rey picked it up and gave it to Luke. >>>Lame Marvel Jokes Some were a little weird, but I thought it brought levity to such a dark serious film. >>>Disney and Rian Johnson got NO EXCUSE they Butchered Stawars! Obviously your opinion that I don't agree with. Oh, and by the way,.....Disney FINANCED...Lucasfilm CREATED!!

[@GeoffreyRahl]

1) Nope Sorry mindnumbingly stupid military decision. All they had to do was to directly target the rebel fleet instead of the ground Base. Who gives a damn abou the ground base? They were evacuating! Target the cruiser's main engine and hyperdrive GameOver. They even said they wanted to give it a WW2 feel, well, that's exactly what aWW2navalbattle would've been like: fighters protected Warships against bombers and if this wasn't enough or the ships AA guns got destroyed there was always an AA escort ship standing by. Plus I find it laughable that as the "offspring of the Empire" the 1stOrder Navy doen't have interdictor class warships, which are still canon, able to project gravity wells and prevent the rebel fleet from escaping from the D'Qar system! 2) Absolutely NOTHING prevented the 1stOrder from repositionning their ship to avoid the gravitational shadow of the rebel fleet and then jump ahead. What's more it is absolutely not credible that even at "no longer effective range" the entire, concentrated power of the IstOrderFleet + Snoke's Ship the supremacy, wouldn't punch through the shields of a SINGLE rebel cruiser that's HUNDREDS if not THOUSANDS of Turbolaser bolt striking the shield. For this very reason I also find laughable that the 1stOrder had to bring a mini DeathStar superlaser and fire it a CLOSERANGE too, a standard Imperial operation "BaseDeltaZero", still canon, consisted in a concentrated orbital bombardement to render a planet's surface uninhabitable. Even from Low orbit that's from 160 km to 2000km at least of effective range for their turbolaser guns. 3) SNOKE : Yes we needed to know more about Snoke before he got killed! Here's why: The orginal trilogy was its own thing nothing like it had ever been done before, everything oucld be made to hte writer's liking and preferences. We got only as much as we needed to make the characters believable and to further the plot. FORTY years alter StarWars is a well rounded, well defined, extremely rich universe, so everything new's got to be consitent with what already exists. REGARDLESS of over the top, wild fan theories and speculations there were high expectations about Snoke becuase episode VII shows us this "supreme leader" who managed to knit together the tattered and bloodied remenants of the empire and reforge it into this formidable military and political player in the Galaxy. HOW did he accomplish this? WHY? We know he is insanely powerful, got horrendous scars possibly resulting from past encounters with other Force users or terrible creatures. He also comes form the "unknown regions" of the Galaxy and clealry stated he saw the rise and fall of the Empire. He is shrouded in Mystery and Wants to destroy Luke Skywalker so OF COURSE viewer are going to want to know more about him! Where does he fit into all of this from the blocus of Naboo to the Battle of Endor? We didn't need every detail far from it but a bit of a back story was needed to anchor the character even if "he isn't the real (main)villain" of this story or if this Trilogy does away with "Manichaeism". We got insanely teased and then got the Galaxy's biggest case of blueballing from Disney and Lucasfilm! Sorry for feeling quite frustrated. 4) KNIGHTS OF REN : Kylo Ren was supposed to complete his trainning was it too much to as for a trainning scene with all of the KoR agaisnt Kylo striving to become better and stronger after his defeat agaisnt Rey? At least they could've been briefly mentionned as being sent on various assignments all across the galaxy. GIVE US CONTEXT! 5) LEIA : The scene was visually cringy ridiculous and nonsensical. Yes, "the force works in mysterious ways" but it's not magic this is not HarryPotter "there's no accidental magic" saving you if you're in danger. Even the most gifted Force wielders have to train for years before any significant results. If Leia was trained by Luke they should've told us so thorugh another character commenting on the situation or after she woke up form her coma. GIVE US CONTEXT! Tell us however briefly you like she used the force to "slowdown her vitals" of she made a "force shield" luke her taught her that little trick years ago. Everything has to fit withing a greater context, or it just feels wrong. It would've been better if she'd ben picked up by the ships BioScanners as faintly but still alive > Tractorbeam > Portside hangarbay > Medical team > No problem with safety door opening into the vacuum of space because we would see her body go through the typical blue-ish hue of an atmospheric containment field. 6) ADMIRAL ACKBAR : Though a minor character he was beloved and hsi line became famous and the center of many memes and jokes Hime taking down the 1st ordership would've been much more satifying, "This is a Trap Imperial scum". If Holdo was such a military mind Iwould''ve liked to see her lead the defense on Crait. And while visually stunning the hyperspace kamikaze raises the question of why this was never done before... against the death star for instance? Sacrifice a single ship to destroy to Destroy the Empire's war machine? Good return on investment I say. 7) FINN/ROSE : CantoBight casino's was the perfect opportunity to reintroduce LadoCalrissian another beloved Character very good at card games and Sabbac especially. But Nope, got arrested because they parked their ship on the beach...Duh! He could've been in the cell with them because he was "too good a player for his own good" Casinos don't like to loose money even when there's no cheating involved... And COME ONE freeing the Racing beast but NOT the SLAVE CHILDREN? If the slaves had exploive implants so did the racing beasts which must be more valuable to their owners than the kids. And ROSE, since she's so good with technology would've found a way to neutralize it. CantoBight was anlso a missed offportunity to show a real firefight against Stormtroopers ans even a... Knight of Ren or Phasma an shte 1stOrder had agent everywhere and would certainly like to keep an eye on its arms dealers and main contractors. There could've been a real fight between Phasma and Finn which he would've badly lost, you know, since "this movie is about failure". Phasma must've had at most 5 minutes with epidodes 7 & 8 and they didn't even show us her face, surely they could find some gimmick to make that happen? This is a disgrace! Well this movie failed to tell us what was going on in the wider Galaxy and fell like a "Pursuit movie" 8) LUKE'S LIGHTSABER : Was and is GREEN as far as Kylo ren is concerned and he was traumatized by his uncle seemingly trying to murder him every last detail of that nightmust've been finely seared into his memories. Smells sounds everything, Luke projected himself as what he looked like that very night he coulnot 've possibly overlooked suchan important detail. Plus the idiot didn't even try to apologize to Kylo and explain what truly happened? Hello?!! Way to die for nothing. I mean the guy redeemed DarthVader and he wouldn't even try to redeem KyloRen? Since this episode is all about deception, manipulations and failure why not have luke attack KyloRen in a "Mindscape" where they could've had a short but intense light saber duel showing Kylo he's stil got a lot to learn? There everybody's happy. 9) The JOKES : Were out of tone and out of place. Stawars' not new to humour but it was in very light touches and very subtle. The Jokes as much as laughter is a matter of taste just completly destroyed high tesion scenes and dicredited the Villains. Just imagine if Frodo of Sam just quipped and Joked before or Sauron or one the Nazgûls slipped on a banana peel. It would look utterly ridiculous Comic relief is allowed but within reason. CONCLUSION : They tried to do soemthing differrent and they tried too damn hard and they did not believe in what made the success of the original Trilogy, this is why they failed. Still, May the Force be wth you, always. If you enjoyed the movie good for you.

I’d love to hear your take on the prequels/original trilogy and see if you’re as nitpicky with them too 😂😂😂 Yes I enjoyed the film, there’s also another reason why I loved it, because it did something that all the other films did too......it took me out of the real world and took me on and adventure with some amazing characters in a galaxy far far away. No amount of petty nitpicking will stop that from happening.

@kristianharloff I really need you to explain to me how what RJ did with Luke Skywalker is okay! Do you truly feel that the Luke we know and love, the Luke who risked everything to redeem a man who had murdered 1000s of innocent people would just try to kill his 15 yr old nephew in his sleep??? A nephew who hadn't even turned, hadn't done anything evil yet. It's such a slap in the face to Luke and all of the fans. It's a cowardly move, and I'm sorry... that is not Luke Skywalker! It's an unforgivable move in this movie and I can't even consider it cannon 😕😔😐 I respect you so much Kristian, I have watched Jedi Council for 3 years. I can't believe you truly think those decisions are ok. I trusted your opinions and I feel you are losing some credibility with the love you are giving this movie. The comedy in this feels like the prequels, how do you guys not see that? I wanted to love this movie, I was so hyped for this, but I just can't be Phantom Menaced again in my life. I respect your opinions and I mean no disrespect. You guys are awesome and I just am baffled at your review of this movie. Hope to hear back from you guys!

[@nelic182]

Cory B they won't reply man. Hamill was right. Rian Johnson didn't do great with this. I would be questioning the guys handling the star wars law (Pablo)

[@coryb9514]

Ash C it really is shocking how Rian Johnson gave the Star Wars lore and it's greatest hero a HUGE slap in the face. RJ and Kathleen Kennedy ruined all the mystery and intrigue that JJ set up in Force Awakens. For the first time in my life I actually don't care about seeing the next chapter in the Star Wars Saga. Mark Hammil was 100% right, guess we all should have listened.

[@renoutlaw8371]

I don't think Pablo is the main decision maker hes more akin to a PR guy.

[@nelic182]

Come out of 2nd viewing and feel a lot better about it now. Luke was really so F'd up from kylo killing all his kids, when you think about it more it does explain his state of mind now. Although we were all picturing that training montage there's no way to he was interested in training rey after his entire academy of kids got slaughtered by what he he perceives to be his own fault. He does need an arc in this movie, and he goes out the same hero we knew saving his sister and whats left of the gang. Then he knew it was his time...

[@GamingandFrightened]

You really don't know Luke. Seeing in vivid force vision Kylo killing every man, woman and child he knew and trained and all the horrible things he would do later even Luke would have a fear. ANYONE would be afraid. And for a brief moment he considered killing him in order to save everyone. It was just a brief moment and made sense.

[@josephcamilleri6995]

You guys are losing so much credibility from this discussion. Please, I know you are Star Wars fans but you primarily work in the film industry. Surely you can see the continued mistakes of script writing and character development. How can you simply overlook the horrible story development of so many characters and just say "I loved it in the book!" That does not mean anything for the larger movie going audience. Please stop overhyping this film and admit the incredibly flawed nature of the movie rather than continuing this silly denial of the extensive issues with this film.

[@TreyJCooper]

Because someone doesn't have the same opinion as you, you're mad LOL

[@Nemesis_T_Type]

Daniel Meyer You are right. If you notice most critics that are giving this movie a pass have been invited to premiere showing or given a media pass in Disneycon. While the critics that are giving their true opinion of the movie are mostly small time KZbinrs and some are even just pissed off veteran Star Wars fans. It's like an indirect blackmail. If you criticize Disney movies you don't get invited in the convention or premiere. It's getting more obvious now that Disney almost have full monopoly of the entertainment business.

[@uzah88]

It’s not perfect but it’s amazing. Force awakens is carbon copy of new hope and you probably like it more. To each his own I guess.

[@lawso185]

The main sticking points I had with this movie: 1. Why Didn’t the First Order Fleet Destroy the Resistance Ships Immediately? The First Order Fleet clearly outnumbered the Resistance and they had a number of Dreadnoughts/Destroyers at their disposal (also the fact that one X-Wing took down a whole dreadnought was ridiculous and was done only to showcase Poe)., so why couldn't they have caught up to the Resistance much quicker? Other than that, the action was cool and the tension was high but overall it was the longest chase scene I have ever watched in the cinema. 2. When Darth Sidious said "To cheat death is the power only one has achieved, but if we work together, I know we can discover the secret." I never realised that Leia would be the one to discover the secret by miraculously flying THROUGH THE VACUUM OF SPACE and back to the Raddus like Superman using the Force- this was the most ridiculous moment of the movie. 3. Poe vs Holdo. This whole segment of the movie was a complete waste and didn't amount to anything significant. Why didn't Holdo Just Let Poe in on her plan from the beginning? I understand Leia and Holdo where maybe trying to teach Poe restraint but this was literally the Resistance on it's last legs and it didn't seem like the right time for moral lessons. 4. Phasma. What a joke. less than five minutes of screentime and Disney marketed her again as being central to the story (Phasma vs Finn, Book release, Last Jedi DLC in battlefront 2). GC is such an amazing actress however she was definitely short changed as were the fans. 5. Snoke. This was the most frustrating death purely from the fact that I feel like I wasted days reading the Aftermath Trilogy for them to suggest that he was this massive dark side presence and with RJ saying he was more powerful than Vader and Sidious yet he couldn't detect Kylo turning the lightsaber towards him?? And the fact that he's dead now means there is not much point for any further character development and he was another wasted character. 6. Rey's Parentage. While I can accept that she came from nothing significant, mirroring Anakin's lineage, why oh why did they build up on this theory since Force Awakens? In the end it meant nothing and for me it was just another example of lazy writing. 7. Finn and Rose. While their character interactions are excellent their whole plot in this story was completely insignificant (apart from Finn killing Phasma). They never recruited the Codebreaker they were meant too and they never shut down the tracker device. Also the whole sequence on Canto Bight was drawn out and felt like a promotion for highlighting rich society and animal cruelty (which are important) but how did this lend to the main plot? 8. Luke. Well where do I start? For the first hour and a half I thought his character direction and portrayal was great but then I began to realise why Mark Hamill initially said in interviews that he didn't like the script; he didn't give Rey any real training, we never got to see him physically wield a lightsaber and during his fight with Kylo he's now the worlds best limbo player??, also he was able to hologram himself? Across millions of miles of space?? and create hologram dice? This is where the nature of the Force is now just a Mcguffin which can fill in crappy plot holes. Luke's death was so stupid and ridiculous considering that in 40 years of canon and lore, Luke has always been promoted as one of the most powerful Jedi etc and his story continued well into old age. But after a hologram fight he just gets tired and gives up? What a joke. 9. Killing off 5 main characters from the old and new trilogy. This just demonstrates how the writers have disregarded fans likability for certain characters - Ackbar, Holdo, Phasma, Snoke, Luke. All deserved more time on screen. And none of these deaths had any emotional impact compared to any other SW movie or certainly Han's death in FA. 10. Yoda appearing to Luke. While I loved Yoda's cameo, why didn't they introduce a CGI Obi Wan (they done a great job of Tarkin in Rogue One) as well since he was Luke's first mentor and arguably the one he was most attached too. Overall I would rate it 5/10 and by far the worst Star Wars movie. It had so much potential to be great (Luke fearing Kylo which could have led him to the Dark SIde and then lead him to fighting Rey and Kylo/ or Rey joining Kylo and ruling the Galaxy vs Luke in Ep.9./ Snoke being an Ancient Sith and killing one of the main characters or having Luke save Rey and Kylo on the Supremacy). But overall alot of the plot threads amounted to nothing significant. The movie was shot beautifully and the action sequences were great. The actors portrayal of their characters was also great. As I say, my main issue is how the plot serviced these characters. The plot was messy and lacked real direction and I think in order to simplify things for Episode 9; that's why the writers literally destroyed everything. This is the first SW movie that I was genuinely disappointed in, and its the first SW movie I have ever complained about (I love the Originals, the Prequels and TFA/RO).

As someone who's a casual Star Wars fan, this film was perfect for me. I was shocked at some of the choices because the hardcore SW community don't like change. Killing Snoke off in the second act was fantastic. I couldn't care less about him, it was all about Kylo Ren's story and the twist got me, I loved it. A big complaint people had about TFA was it was too safe, too predictable. This film had more shocks, had unpredictability and the story was more engaging. Only negative was the silly Leia flying like Superman bit..... dopey.

[@FinalShadow17]

Ian Hathaway I actually enjoyed it bc at first I thought it would go as they planned. I enjoyed how they set up a plan that could easily save them but failed and all hope seemed lost. They seemed doomed to die there. Sure side plot could be different but the message would still be the same.

[@SilentaryXIV]

I agree. Holdo's character pissed me off so much. There is no reason why she shouldn't have told Poe her plan. He (and everyone on board) had the right to know. They were all about to DIE... and yeah, Rose saving Finn at the end ruined that entire moment.

+Ian Hathaway, that's because you are not in a position of leadership, or in the military. Poe is a subordinate, and not her direct report.

Change will cause this. from Luke throwing away his lightsaber when handed it to Rey, to Leia pulling her self from OUTER SPACE back to the ship through the force, to the real story of how Ben turned, to he Death of Snoke, to Yoda, to Luke showing up. It shows great beats of what makes Star Wars well Star Wars but then it twists a bit and that will confuse people and/or turn them away

[@thitran1362]

The things people are upset about is that the characters are basically throw away characters. The idea of the force in the movie was great but they threw away potential characters. Snoke died a stupid death, we know nothing of him or even cared about him. Phasma too.... she basically fight for a few scenes and then boom fall to her death. Luke was alright but I expect him to do more than what he does in the movie. Plus they set up the whole Rebels vs Empire scenario all over again!!! People focus on the mythology and stuff in the movie and forget the characters. There is little to no development of the characters.

[@eltontaylor162]

thi tran See, I definitely felt that they took the time to develop the characters that matter. Phasma was little more than a shiny stormtrooper, so I don't feel she deserved much more. The whole idea is that in the end, the relationship betweeb Kylo and Rey is what really matters. It shows that strength when they work together. That hope that love will conqueror evil. It makes them parting as enemies more impactful and heavy. Snoke was a necessary big bad for kylo to take out so it shows that he can be redeemed. Its at least possible. Always back to the idea of hope.

[@jordansherrick7297]

This snoke thing really bothers me,not that he died,but how he died.They say he was more powerful then Vader and the emperor and yet he gets killed because of a distraction?

On it's own, i thought it was a good film but seriously... Maz got 1 hologram scene, Where are the Knights of Ren? The Leia superman scene was ridiculous, Snoke's death was complete bullshit...killed out of nowhere with no given backstory and no explanation of how he was able to manipulate Ben Solo for so long...total DUD character, Kylo killed Snoke and alligned with Rey for 2 minutes to kill the guards just for them to split again and become enemies, Rey's parents were handed terriblly...just so suddenly mentioned that they're junk collecters and we STILL don't know how or why she is so powerful in the force...are we really supposed to just accept some random girl is so powerful for no reason? There was no explanation for Luke's death, nothing really happened for him to "die" in that scene and are we really meant to believe that Luke even had a moment of relapse where he was willing to kill his own nephew because he sensed the darkness in him even though he spent all that time trying to convert a fully dark Vader? come on now, Everything with Finn and Rose was pointless and lead to nothing except Phasma's death... i seriously have no idea where episode 9 is going to go from here... But Hux faceplanting single handedly gets the film a 11/10 xD

[@babis96ful]

I will agree with you about rey's parents if you tell me who was obi wan's and why he was so powerful. Force sensitivity is not something that is passed on from parent to child

[@mafer3263]

The jedi were random force Users as well, or mace windu's father was a jedi legend? He was not! The force is no tie to some Bloodline no even the skywalker line

[@billsmafia2473]

Many irreparable mistakes were made to Star Wars with this movie, some amazing moments & shots but luke deciding to kill Ben Solo rather than guide him away from the dark side is fundamentally NOT in character of Luke at all,

[@Raghy07]

Adam Schinabeck Disappointed no one mentioned this. Especially Kristian.

[@d00ks]

Adam Schinabeck did you not listen to Luke? He said he had a brief clarity fuck up moment. And when his mind was clear he was caught red handed

[@camtog1728]

As yoda said, failure can be the best teacher. As kylo described it, Luke was consumed and was set on killing him; however we learn that he hesitated and suddenly realized the nature of what was happening.. his fear of what would happen to Ben leading him to a darkness. This shift can be respected because it gives Luke Skywalker and his never-fleeting synergy with the light more depth..and you got to love how yoda so gracefully reminded him of what matters.

[@spaulagain]

Somebody didn't actually watch the movie. Luke had a brief moment of fear consuming him, and they righted himself. But at that point Ben realized his brief intent. That's the main point of this film, the Jedi order is not flawless, and it's even more important to learn from your mistakes.

[@daniellove162]

While I didn't like it, it is not far fetched to think a young idealistic Luke would think different than the old cynical Luke.

Still disappointed that Luke’s alive arc is over. Wasted opportunity to further explore the force with him. A force ghost isn’t the same thing.

[@CalebByRamen]

not super shocking. hes old. we didnt get to see vader at his peak or luke at his peak.

[@Palendrome]

But Kada wwhat we did get was six movies of Vader/Anakin. Luke more than deserved an arc echoing that. Whereas the secondaries in Obi-Wan and Han Solo are only in four of the main films.

[@gabrieltisnes9556]

the only times we saw the real luke was when he talks to chewie, r2, and yoda. he literally sounds like how he talked in the original trilogy. miss that luke :(

[@brandonblakney6689]

Also why the hell did they have to kill Luke honestly... I know he sacrifices himself but come on you show him survive just to die 5 minutes later... and the Snoke thing my god.... and Rey's parents being a bunch of no body's I think Kylo was lying and they are actually someone beacuse how in the hell is she so powerful...

[@postlex]

Brandon Blakney Kylo and Rey lose their masters to be able to grow without a parent/master/boss figure: independent growth. Very good (and gift for JJ). Luke entered RotJ like a grown man. Vader still had emperor to deal with. Now we get Kylo and Rey on their own. Cool.

[@johnbrastock]

Why does she have to be somebody? This is perfect.

[@thomasflynn6072]

that princess Leia floating in space crap was one of the worst Star Wars scenes ever sorry Riley

[@TangentialShark]

All those claims from Andy Serkis that Snoke is more powerful than Darth Sidious and that he is the most powerful baddie Star Wars has ever seen, and yet he gets killed like nothing. So much potential lost.

[@eliminator173]

Samuel Herrera sidious litterally got picked up and tossed down a hole. Vader died because hes breathing aparatus was fucked up

[@jenniferchough]

i was okay with Snoke eating it the way he did because it showed that, no matter how powerful you are, your hubris and ego can lead to your downfall. He thought he knew it all, the Force showed different.

[@InBedGamer]

I’ve never had such a mixed reaction walking out of a movie.

[@Spiritofzen]

I hated this movie. So many characters were a complete waste and it sadly made TFA pointless. Like do we even need Episode 9 now? It can just end here now and we can just be done.

[@Shortyd17]

Don’t watch it then...

[@MrSexy-hn9oz]

Im dead inside...

[@mazadams4951]

That was not Luke. It looked like Luke and sounded like Luke, but it wasn't Luke. Luke, the same guy who NEVER gave up on his father, tried to murder his nephew because he claims he saw darkness in him? The thing that says the most about how misrepresented he was in this film is that I didn't even care that he died. I've grown up loving Star Wars so much and it means more to me more than anything, yet I didn't even care about its hero dying. That is how you know this movie failed

[@MrMaximum91]

Maz Adams never seeing this dog shit. Won't let Disney ruin one my favorite childhood hero's

[@jfenn35]

Does no one remember that in the flashback Luke said he was going to strike him down and then realized that he was wrong and was going to stop?

[@mazadams4951]

I remember. But luke would have thought it out even before then. He wouldn't go with the intention to kill him. Again, this is a guy who refused to give up on his dad. By this point his father had killed most of the Jedi (including younglings) and thousands of other people. Kylo had yet to kill one person. This did not feel like Luke at all. I still can't believe any die hard fan would not take issue with his characterization in this movie. I will not buy this logic, but to each their own.

[@jfenn35]

Maz Adams that's fair. It ended up working for cuz I thought of it as Luke trying to protect the future of the Jedi by getting rid of the potential threat in Ky-lo. It works for me because he stopped himself and saw the fault in what he almost did. I do see your point of view though

[@jaygarrick8838]

Yeah...luke gave kylo a good reason to be pissed

[@ChiefSmackahoLLC]

Anyone noticed that in Luke's "force projection" fight with Kylo on the salt planet, he's *using the lightsaber that Kylo and Rey just destroyed* . Luke didn't know they pulled the weapon in half, but Kylo didn't notice. If Kylo saw that then I think it might have spoiled the illusion, heh.

[@jdgjordan]

Dark side blinded him.

[@samwillett6950]

Poopzeug Poopzeugan he didn't leave any Red marks on the ground either

[@MatthewPalanca]

BUT, what if "force projection" is an ability Kylo had never seen before? One that Luke only learned in his isolation? That could explain it....Kylo was too confused to understand what was happening (as was the audience upon a first viewing :D). That being said, I thought the scene was so brilliant. On paper, it sounds like it'd be cheesy, but the way it played out on screen was amazing.

[@giselamiller3392]

Kylo said earlier that when the "force bond" first happened with Rey, that it can't be a projection cause the effort would kill her. He knew what it was. Coupled with the fact that Luke had the destroyed Skywalker saber then, its kind of a plot hole. Question is, where is Luke's green saber? If Luke showed up with that saber, would THAT of given it way to Kylo...will it show up in 9?

[@blanemurphy3795]

I noticed it....also he looked younger like the same age that he was when he almost killed Kylo the last time he saw him. I was in the theater thinking they either fucked up big time or something crazy was going on. The latter was true and what better way to show Luke's power and cause his death in a completely unobvious way. Dude was so powerful that he could kiss Leia, give her a trinket, and make the entire planet full of people think he was there and have a light saber battle with Kylo. Dude was all the while chilling on a rock on Ach Too.....dayum.

anyone else think that Rose is awful character she had no point in the movie in my opinion she ruined a seen that could have been so great with Finn sacrificing himself. Take her out of the movie and it effects nothing we just never meet Benicio's character. Her sister had a great part but she was so unnecessary.

I completely get why Mark Hamill did not like what they did with his character when he first read the script

[@Tierchenmeister]

In a (recent?) interview where he is seated next to Rian Johnson, he looks absolutely devastated. It's kind of the same facial expression that his character Luke had after he cut off Vaders robo hand in Ep. 6... the face of recognizing what he had done. Mark was forced to sell out what he believed in in that recent film. He always was a fan of the franchise, and now he was made a part of the deliberate rape of that franchise. Mark knows that Ep. 8 took a giant shit on everything that Star Wars stood for. TLJ was deliberately disrespectful to Star Wars. It is *deconstructionism* in action. Mark sees what has happened, and how he was tricked into helping these people desecrate the legacy of a widely beloved piece of movie history.

I don't know how to feel. Visually the movie is as good as A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back. The decisions made in this movie... I don't wanna be that Star Wars fan "oh Disney ruined star wars" but maybe the decisions made will serve to boost episode IX. Definitely The Last Jedi will be judged when the whole trilogy is complete.

[@FrostedAvowals]

Like Empire strikes back was. A lot of the fan of the original weren't thrilled with how episode V turned out. It's only down the road that people actually started seeing it as the best one.

Def the most divisive SW movie ever. Fans are 50/50 on it. I think that has to do with the high highs and low lows. I'm sure some are just upset the twists didn't go as they thought/wanted them too. I'm fine with it but get used to the new norm.

[@allbies]

nucciboy1 it's only when twists like snoke dying feel empty that people are sad about. We learnt nothing of him even though he was so cool and menacing his apprentice kills him before ep9 and we don't even see knights of ren teased in ep 7. Sad.

Russ Sperry no I wanted the guy they made look cool to mean something. If we know nothing of him and he dies in two episodes and minimal screen time it feels empty because he's litrally a plot device that is cheap. No I don't want another emperor which is why I wanted snoke to stay.

My favorite part in The Last Jedi was when the credits rolled because I knew Rainman Johnson couldn't do anymore damage to Star Wars.

[@User3Ds]

I’m disappointed with Snoke. I even convinced myself that Luke just came to peace with himself, forgave himself for what happened at the Jedi Temple, learned all he needed to learn in his life, and just chose to become part of the force or the force called him back or some shit, but you can’t build someone up like Snoke, have him die, and then tell me that our big bad in ep 9 is “Welcome To The Black Parade Solo.” He hasn’t earned his big bad title yet!

[@stingray5050]

Agreed, that was another thing I kinda felt cheated by AND if Rey's parents really were just junkers why is she so damned good with a saber and the Force?!?

[@brianjones7698]

Ron Crawford Snoke could have transferred his essence to Kylo. We don’t know the extent of who he is or what his species or power is. It could explain why Kylo and Rey are still connected after Snokes “death”. Also it could explain why Kylo didn’t fully turn to the light after. This could be a Glenn under the dumpster fake death from walking dead. A troll from Disney.

[@Blain260686]

The Gaming Kitchen character who created the first order and was incredibly powerful with the force. He is the reason new trilogy started in the first place, he's the catalist of all the events in this trilogy. Don't pull this "it's just the fans" scapegoat.

[@FrostedAvowals]

Slightly disappointed with Snoke as well. We never know though, he may not be dead, just looking at his head you can see that he's been through some shit. Maybe Kylo turning on his master was him completing his training and was part of Snoke's plan all along. After that scene Kylo seems to not be conflicted anymore and fully embrassing the dark side. Even Palpatine in the return of the jedi encourages Luke to strike him down. We still don't know what or who Snoke was, I doubt it's the last we hear of him. The reaction a lot of the fans are having towards the last jedi is really similar to how the empire strikes back was perceived upon release. Confusion.

[@samphyllobates4765]

... kylo tricking snoke by clouding his intent and turning the last saber...that.s not enough for you?...that the way of the sith the apprentice tricks his master ....sidious. Allegedly tricked plagueis....it was the only way to overthrow snoke...he was damn too powerful,toying with Rey...spanking kylo...I mean it was brilliant plan ! Now it’s a bold move to kill your big boss in the second movie...but maybe we don’t need a big overseer ... « let the past die,kill it if you have to »...it’s a new generation and maybe we just need a protagonist and Antagonist but not a emperor type of figure🙂

[@senpaigarr]

It's probably a coincidence, but I think it's cool that it seems like Kylo's character is getting similar to Jacen Solo from the EU novels. How he's acting, his rage and raw emotion and his feelings towards his uncle Luke. And the force powers that Luke was using to project himself was also used in the Legacy of the Force book series. I don't know if anyone else is making these connections. But yeah I thought that was pretty cool.

[@thobat14]

senpaigarr YES

[@renoutlaw8371]

I had this exact thought. 1. Han and Leia's son 2. Dark robes 3. Sith master he kills half-way through the story 4. Kills close family members 5. Takes control of the military 6. Luke gives up on him and tries to kill him (kinda)

[@ThaPimpminista]

I thought the same thing. And even tho I enjoyed TLJ, a part of me kinda wished they'd have been Jacen and Jaina. That storyline of brother vs sister would have had such an emotional impact. And it'd have been cool to have Mara Jade & Ben Skywalker in the mix....ohh well....I'm going to read my Legends EU books again. *Drops mic & picks up Heir to the Empire
