why thank you!
He also said very sadly "does this mean Luke won't be in another film?"
I gotta say, most of the kids I know that love Star Wars - still love and identify with Luke. Sure, they sort of think Poe has a cool ship, but it's Luke that represents Star Wars more.
I think it was pretty confusing and sad for him to not understand Jake Skywalker
.
What's funny is: This thread is being recreated throughout the galaxy, wherever TLJ is being discussed.
Doubt me? Check out Best Buy, Target or Slickdeals reviews/posts.
Instead of broom boy, Rian's folly has inspired fans to embrace their hate of his film.

Now all he has to do if fix the other 2 hours and 15 minutes or so.

Just realized this. I will NEVER forget the feeling I had when I first saw Star Wars A New Hope In Theatres as a child and I will NEVER forget the feeling I had after I saw The Last Jedi for the first time in Theatres.
Complete different ends of the emotional spectrum in every way. Simply put it was like the Difference between Heaven and Hell.

I took my 3 kids opening night and we dragged my wife along (literally). Wife is NOT a fan. So getting her objective review on the ride home was interesting.
-"That Asian actress was horrible"
-"Yoda didn't look right" (she does have a slight fondness for ESB Yoda)
- "That was just stupid/didn't make any sense". About couple of things.

My wife is a casual fan though not obsessed like I am. As we were walking out of the theater opening night she wanted my opinion of it first because she was afraid that I liked it and didn't want to hurt my feelings. She was relieved to hear that I was appalled at how bad it was. So yeah, even my wife hated it. Over the next few days as it all sunk in she would even come up to me and just try to work out in her mind how none of it made any sense.
Just goes to show you that even casual fans know what a horrible movie it was.

Just look at the way Mark Hamill is sobbing after this take. I mean that says it all right there. Rian Johnson is even trying to console him and Mark can't even lift his head or move.
My heart breaks with you Mark!
This was the most depressing experience I've had at the movies since What Dreams May Come, except at least that movie didn't try to pretend to be anything other than a drama, whereas The Last Jedi tried to throw in "your mama" jokes and porgs to try and make up for destroying Luke Skywalker.
It's gone. The magic and heart of Star Wars is gone. Replaced with cynicism and dollar signs.

AFTER? I started sinking in my seat during the Poe/hux dialogue

The most uncomfortable part about that scene is that they don't look like breasts, they looked like testicles

Star Wars by Disney is like Twinkies.. Twinkies used to be delicious golden creme-filled gems. When Hostess went out of business that was the end of twinkies that the world once knew and loved. When some other company brought Hostess back and started making twinkies again they looked the same, tasted close to the same, but they just weren’t approaching their former deliciousness. To those who never had the “real” twinkies, these are all they’ve ever known and perfectly enjoyable with no reference of comparison. The Last Jedi was like buying a box of the nu twinkies knowing full well they weren’t the same but they were tolerable enough to be enjoyed, only to find someone just put turds in wrappers marked Hostess in the box

I guessed something was not right when the movie title was revealed. No one else seems to notice that it’s one word short. There is a pattern and it was ignored.
ANH. TPM. TFA.
TESB. AOTC. TLJ_.
ROTJ. ROTS. . . . .
It started here and it just gets worse.
The level of care are and attention to detail is sorely lacking under KK’s reign. :facepalm

Just rewatched The Last Jedi. Wonderful movie overall. Easily the best Star Wars movie since The Original Trilogy.
Not really sure why this movie has developed a lot of negativity. In fact I don't believe I've seen as much hatred for a motion picture as this one.
Subtext, themes, fantastic action scenes, adept story telling of a middle part of a trilogy and great cinematic technique. Basically all the things that make something more than just a movie. It's all here.
So I don't really get the backlash, but that's just me.
