While Star Lord’s reaction was totally in line with the character (and arguably, things may have had to go this way - depends on whether Dr. Strange 1 in 14 million needed to result in Tony being alive or in Thanos getting the Gauntlet), it did not stop me from texting my friend who had seen the movie the night before

Pretty much my reaction and response, too.

I’m 33, and first read the book  when I was 9 or 10: Meg Murry is the first modern-day female protagonist that I remember relating to on a deeper level. (Jo March from Little Women is the non-modern day protagonist that I felt was my kindred spirit). I felt like I could be Meg: her insecurities and internal and

I saw it last night — hands down, one of the best films Marvel Studios has done. It is well-written, well-shot and well-acted. The cast is unbelievable. And although I love Chadwick Boseman and Michael B. Jordan, the women absolutely steal the show, especially Danai Gurira and Letitia Wright. People talk about

Hands down one of the best rock groups to see live. I’ve seen them 3 times — always so much fun! Enjoy!

Second everything in your post.

+1. It still bothers me that she marries Laurie in the end. I love both Laurie and Jo, but didn’t want them to end up together, but I’d take that over Laurie and Amy....

I’ll totally give Domhnall Gleeson all the hugs Hux wants.

Agree with that last part. One of my friends even made the joke about The Collector being in Star Wars now since it’s all owned by Disney.

Well that’s an editing issue then, because it does feel like she waits forever to even move. And that seemed to be the basic the reaction of the entire theatre, that why wasn’t she moving, doing something — so much so that when she actually does make her move, someone yelled out “FINALLY” and everyone clapped.

It’s ok and I get its purpose in the story...it just felt like a detour that could have been incorporated in a better way. My biggest problem with it is that it threw off the pacing - it was 2.5 hour movie and it definitely felt like it during that section.

My husband and I watched it on recommendation from a friend - we went in not knowing anything about it, and were both teary-eyed by the end. It was such a well-done movie.

Inconceivable!!

It’s such a fun hate-hate relationship to watch, too.

I can see that, but it did make me giggle snort...

Me too. I love Domhnall Gleason, so glad to see he had more to do, and more development (even if he was like a punching bag - he gets tossed around like a rag doll by the Dark Side!)

He starts that mutiny because the transport ships have no shields, weapons, etc., and at that time, no one knows about the Crait outpost. So it just looks like Holdo is abandoning ship and leaving the Resistance to be picked off like sitting ducks.

We laughed. It was funny and in-character for Hux.

“The destruction of Snoke’s ship was epic and really well-realised (although why did she take so long to do it).”
