Aren't these the pathetic sycophants Disney invited to their premiere just because their Disney social credit score was exemplary? Holy shit, this is gonna be hilarious, for the first time in years Star Wars is entertaining me for all the wrong reasons. Not that I was ever a big fan but what Disney is cynically doing to their products is very interesting and it brings me joy when it backfires on them. Let's hope Disney's capeshit eventually meet the same fate.

That was exactly my initial reaction to Last Jedi.
I'll wait for spoiler reviews from people who aren't professional film reviewers, just fans.

The "critics" loved TLJ and IMO it was terrible not just as a SW movie but as a movie in general.
So I don't know how to interpret this having mixed reactions.
Right after the movie:
"That was awesome"
next day:
"was that awesome?"
next day:
"It wasn't that awesome.."
next day:
"damn that kinda sucked"

LOL that was me after The Dark Knight Rises

I can definitely relate to this, as I've done it myself several times...

To subvert expectations, Mike is going to give it a glowing review.

Looks like all the blue-haired journalists who creamed themselves over TLJ are disappointed- which means there is hope that it’s at least a decent, serviceable SW movie. Kind of like how I felt after Revenge of the Sith.

I am going to see it Sunday morning at 8 AM by myself. Already got the ticket. I don't know what to expect.

I'm certainly ready for this trilogy to be over at this point... Going to see ROS Saturday, so hopefully I can avoid spoilers until then.

Wow I expected to click on the thread and get early press impressions of the movie and instead all I got was a bunch of white supremacists denying the cinematic masterpiece known as [checks bank account for Disney cash] Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker™ available in theaters starting December 20th, 2019.

Fairly mixed opinions for a major Star Wars release though a lot of the detractors appear to be fans of The Last Jedi, which kinda makes those reviews potentially positive. =P
I'm not sold though but I'm seeing it with friends so...we'll see. At the very least it'll end this saga and I can move on from Star Wars for good.

That's because Star Wars was never meant to be more than one film.

Why it's so hard to trust anyone on their Star Wars review #1138
'It's kind of interesting to think that C-3PO was Vader's robot toy when he was a kid.'
'Bwahh??'

Yup. It ends this stupid trilogy. That's at least 60% fresh right there.

The site I checked for collecting reactions was mostly positive, even the negative ones included blurbs like "it gives you everything you want and more, but that's part of the problem" and it's like... okay... or one said "will give hardcore fans what they want but I wasn't happy" it's like... cool...

A lot of these sites have pushed bullshit clickbait Rey theories for five years. Not only are their theories not realized in the movie, but their source of clickbait is drying up for about three years.

To be fair, it's wasn't his responsibility to end 2/3 that you named.

The KOTOR games are the best thing in Star Wars. Period.

Don't be fooled by the negative SJW reviews. That doesn't translate to "opposite of TLJ and therefore good."
It just means the film is probably a hot mess, which even the TFA and TLJ fans can't deny.
An absolute wreck of a trilogy, and I look forward to reading the plot synopsis on Wikipedia to confirm the reddit leak instead of giving Disney money.

It's weird I'm going into this movie the exact opposite mindset I had with TLJ. Was super excited and hyped for TLJ, left confused and angry because I had convinced myself it was gonna be awesome. Now with TROS I couldn't be any less excited and pessimistic, hopefully the opposite happens yet again.

I feel vindicated in abandoning this IP after TLJ.

Again, the worst Star Wars movie is 10x better than any movie out there, directors matter, and are a big deal, adjusting from one director to the next is a big deal, the second film in the series has a different energy, what is said from these early reviews is that we're in for a show but should be tame'd expectations.

So are any of the new Star Wars movies good? Because I've not seen any of them due to rabid negative reception online.
They’re watchable for sure. Hop on a Disney+ free trial and check them out for yourself.

Ehh... I gotta see it through. I mostly liked TFA and while I was massively disappointed by the choices made in TLJ, I still had a decent enough time watching it in the theater. I still want to see how this wraps up.
