In 2017, Johnson took the numerous story possibilities left for him by J.J. Abrams’ The Force Awakens and turned it into The Last Jedi, a film that defied expectations in ways Star Wars movies used to.

I don’t know that that reasoning makes much sense. Many of the people who didn’t end up liking TLJ saw it in theaters, so using box office returns as evidence that they were a tiny minority doesn’t make much sense. Personally, I don’t particularly like TLJ, though I want nothing to do with the reactionary assholes who…

When you’ve already burned the bridge, sometimes it’s best to go back and destroy the pylons, the abutments, and the road leading to the chasm.

Are they credible and supported? I’m not convinced that’s really true.

It’s like a Star Wars nerd and a Tolkien nerd loved each other VERY much...

This is an excellent recap only missing the explanation for why all the modern female characters are terrible harrpies.

Audibly LOL’ed at “this is syphilis, you see”. Nice summary.

Even the Snyder attack in this context is weird, and I’ll admit that Ilike MoS and BvS, in that neither of those movies were R-rated when they came to the theaters. The argument can be made about darkness and stuff like that, but even there I don’t know how fundamentally darker BvS is to say to Avengers Infinity War…

I can’t wait for this to come out and be just as terrible as the original version.

Look, as a parent I can tell you that my kids love

This is gonna be a SMASH!!!
Should I be worried that my 7 year old son just started wearing a Trilby after watching this?

You’re not an intelligent person and nobody values anything you have to say.

I’m going to go back up and read this, because I’m excited to see someone talk positive about this movie, but my knee-jerk reaction is:

To everyone that lives outside of New York, New York consists solely of New York City. New York is shorthand for New York City. Nothing else matter.

Well, it’s not like you need an extra fork to eat steamed hams.
