I really wanted to watch the same movie as you.
I think they completely fucked up almost every bit of continuity they set up in TFA. I was fine with Rey not having famous parents, but what they did with Snoke was fucking stupid. Since Kylo asked Rey to join him in the middle of the second act, it screwed up the pacing and made Kylo a mopey jerk who now has no path…
It’s not Obi-Wan’s lightsaber. That has been lost since he was killed by Vader. It was Anakin’s old lightsaber.
He looks like Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin ate one of those three course meal gums from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
I have been avoiding my great grandson Brocklynn who would like to take me to this, the 118th and allegedly penultimate Avengers film. We have been seeing these films together since time immemorial, obviously since the time when nuclear family structures and live births were the norm, as opposed the the much improved…
That moment where they teased Kylo coming back then taking it away was... a gut punch and a half. I legit had feels for a moment like,
“Somehow, a new player-created holiday became a story about conflict, betrayal and the disappearance of an entire civilization.”
So, they invented Thanksgiving?
The plotting itself in Act 2 was pointless. What Rian Johnson was trying to do (I’m not sure I totally agree with his decisions) was take the usual harebrained Star Wars convoluted Hail Mary hero plan and make it fail. And fail spectacularly.

Agreed. The final battle between Maul and Obi-wan (the first bit after Qui-gon dies and the shield comes down) is my absolute favorite piece of fight choreography. It’s just two guys in their prime, moving perfectly, trying to murder each other.
It was like that scene was dropped in from another (much better) movie.
I really can’t stay
He’s gonna call his Dad at 1:05pm on Sunday and ask him what he should do now that football is over.
And his Dad is going to say “Whatever you want to, Eli”
And Eli is going to say “But what do I want to do, Dad?”
This will go back and forth til Geno’s third pick.
Don’t make fun of Billy. He grew up on the southern isthmus of the Texan peninsula. It was a hard-scrabble life on the tundra there and education was a luxury - not a right.
I’m mostly offended at the idea of drinking beer out of a straw.
I wouldn’t have even let them on the flight.
