I’m flabbergasted by how you could so thoroughly miss the point. I really think you need to watch the movie again because you clearly decided that you hated it and completely missed...basically everything?
Did you forget Leia, the leader of the resistance, was still alive
Even if we judge Canto-Bight as a “failure,” what exactly was Cloud City?
The Falcon stays broken, Han gets captured, Luke loses a hand, and Lando loses control of the whole operation.
Was that too not a failure?
And did NOBODY listen to what Yoda actually said in TLJ? “Pass on what you have learned: strength, mastery.…

The heroes fight to beat the bad guys? No, the heroes fight to stay alive long enough to escape. The hero gets the girl?…

Right up to your dying day, you will continue to mewl and whinge like a helpless infant bird for the regurgitated masticate of things you like that already exist. And in your pea-brained baby-bird logic,…
You can always tell the people who picked up their Looney Tunes fandom from boardwalk t-shirts circa 1995.

Sad to report that Spotify doesn’t carry this gem.
Also forgot: Empire teasing Force Leia (“no.... there is another...) and Jedi farting on it, so Rian Johnson has her Force-summoning herself to safety after getting blasted out into space. Fuck yes, finally someone picked up that loose end.
Also known as a list of reasons why this movie ruled. And I guess it’s also a pretty accurate list of reasons why so many Real Fans™ hated it.
