May the force be with you
Tony's nose is fighting for its life with the congestion 😅
Keepers of the flame they are not. It killed any idea that SW was in the right hands with Disney.
I only watched the last one to see how they'd try to dig out of that hole from Rian snipping off all the branches of their little Charlie Brown tree.
That's the last Disney SW I ever watched.
If it was possible to kill Star Wars, Troy Denning would have killed it in 2006 when Legacy of the Force came out. Star Wars may be in a bad place right now, but eventually something good will come out of it again. Whether the current leadership will be responsible for that is up for debate, and it might take years. For example, Star Trek TNG ended with an abysmal final movie in 2002. In 2023, season 3 of Picard gave TNG the finale that cast deserved. But just like Star Trek didn't die during that time, neither will Star Wars.
Yes it did.
What else is new from 6 years ago?
No, Star Wars was killed when that mediocre second prequel movie came out
Yes. Next question
Its the best one out of the sequels, but thats not saying anything. Still a dumpster fire.
This is the first and only movie that has made me mad. I have many reasons but it’s in the past. It’s the closest(or only)movie that did destroy my childhood.
First, we got based Crystal. Now we're getting woke, Tony?
Yes. Yes it did.
I walked out of this movie and had no interest in Star Wars anymore. The old films, new ones, TV shows, all of it… it totally amputated my love of a franchise. Never experienced such a visceral hatred of a movie before.
This channel is going nowhere. I'm calling it from now. woke galore.
😂😂😂 These comments are just **chef's kiss**. TLJ didn't kill the franchise, but the whiney fanboy response to TLJ certainly didn't help, and congrats! That's why you got the walk-back, nonsense, absolute trash fire that is The Rise of Skywalker. Well done, dorks — somehow, you made Palpatine return.
There are some perfectly valid criticisms of the TLJ, but it's still a good movie, it took some big risks, and it's beautifully filmed. You can blame Abrams and Kennedy all day for not having a plan outlined from the start (which they absolutely should have) but stop blaming Rian Johnson for doing what he was hired to do. If he'd been given any parameters to stay within, he would have. But no, Abrams set up a story with no ending and said, "You take it from here", so RJ did.
It is a shame how Finn was wasted as a character.
1: He should have been force-sensitive, at least like Leia is.
2: He should have incited or lead a trooper rebellion.
And the casino planet, it felt a little, ham-fisted? I agree with the idea communicated that war /can just be/ business for detatched and selfish elites.
I was 4 when Star Wars came out, so obviously the original trilogy had a huge impact on me. The prequels were really disappointing but overall it was Star Wars just not what i wanted the Prequels to be. I thought Revenge Of The Sith ended that trilogy as well as it could be ended. Cut to The Force Awakens, i gave a lot of leeway to that film and though i had issues with it i was looking forward to The Last Jedi……..when the lights came up in the theater i was done. I ranted about it to friends and then i stopped caring. To this day i have not seen The Rise Of Skywalker or any film associated with Rian Johnson.
Yes
TFA killed the franchise. Why would Han still be wearing the costume from SW? He wore different costumes in ESB and ROTJ. It was an insanely stupid film😅
I understand why some people like all the expectation-subversion in this movie like Rey being a nobody, Snoke getting killed, and Luke regecting the light saber, but the bottom line is that the franchise simply had not been building up to any of that. Dropping all of it into the second movie of a trilogy out of nowhere and completely ignoring numerous established plotlines was bound to be disastrous.
No, The Force Awakens did. Then Rogue One did. THEN The Last Jedi pissed on its corpse.
Also let's don't forget the Prequels. They still suck, no matter how much worse the sequels where. But to be totaly honest: Star Wars was already raped by the Special Editions in 1997. And again in 2004 by the DVD releases.
It tainted the whole thing
No, but it did shatter it's defenses. It was subsequent piles of rancid cat dookie that killed it including Last Skywalker, Boba Fett, Ashoka, Mandalorian season 3, and whenever it comes out The Acolyte.
TLJ is the best Star Wars movie since 1983
To answer the question in your title…
Y Y Y E E E S S S S S S S S S
TFA killed Star Wars, TLJ buried it.
Yes, it killed the franchise. Yes, it is also the worst movie of all time.
1000% yes! First movie I walked out being upset
TLJ will be remembered as the worst film ever made, and defenders of it will be mocked for eternity.
I like many things in The Last Jedi in concept, but dislike them all in execution.
