    This whole film felt like a bottle episode.

    also the porgs were just fine. i was expecting them to be overdone, but i think their involvement was perfect.

    Snoke not noticing was his hubris and underestimating Kylo, plus pushing him over the edge.

    That felt so useless, and almost felt like it could have been a perfect way to deal with something...

    Forgot to say the thing about Snoke not knowing what Kylo was doing in my post as well

    Also is this the first Star Wars film that didn't have anyone say "I have a bad feeling about this"? or did I just miss it?

    a lot of criticism right away from people i saw it with that that would have been the perfect way to kill leia and end that character. but this finished filming 6 months before she died, and going back to make that scene her end would mean cutting all her other great scenes later. i dont blame them at all for not killing her off after the fact

    I found the first hour and a half of this incredibly boring. I was so glad the crystalline foxes were significant. Kelly Marie Tran was wonderful. Benicio Del Toro was Benicio Del Toro, and I appreciate that. Porgs were obnoxious. The second I saw Luke's beard was dark I knew something was up. The floating scene was woof. HATED the Yoda scene.

    Things have changed.

    Parts of this felt like a parody movie and that made me sad. It ended well but that first half was really rough.

    Laura Dern's motivations confused the fuck out of me.

    Literally one of my favorite scenes in the film, I hated people that even hinted that VII or RO were better than any of the original trilogy films but I guess I'm in that boat now. I can't change how I felt about this movie though. I was physically shaking my dad during that scene cause of my excitement lol

    yeah it didnt really make sense why she wouldnt just explain herself from the start...you had a noble plan....why be a dick to poe and not just reveal the plan

    I feel like some of the plot twists in this film were just for the sake of having a plot twist.

    THIS leads me to another question, maybe I just didn't understand it, but:

    The whole BDT handing over Finn and Rose to the First Order, how exactly did that happen? He did it after they were caught, but... they were already caught and captured, so what exactly did he hand over?

    Kinda how I felt about certain characters. There were some that just didn't need to be there. I saw someone put it perfectly, "everything including the sink"

    Damn. I got done with this and raced home and immediately went on here because I havent been on here for a week and have been off most of the internet and couldnt wait to converse about this movie. Didnt expect to see people have this many problems with it. I can definitely see the divisness of the movie.

    I adored this movie. My favorite of them all. I really dont know where to start talking about this movie. This movie felt like it went on forever in the good way. There was so much in so many different places. So many amazing moments. basically all of luke. That fight scene on Crait was amazing. then only turning out to be him projecting himself there to buy time was one of the biggest holy shits in star wars and his death was so beautiful. I cried during the scene with Leia and Luke as I didnt think it would happen and was wonderful.

    The whole Throne scene might be the highlight of the movie. I was entranced in that room and the look. The fight sequence was my favorite of all Star Wars. The Kylo and Rey dynamic throughout the whole movie was something that sets this movie apart for me. It was so different and added a whole different dynamic with the story on why he turned on Luke and getting his perspective and then Luke's.

    Luke Fighting Rey. The Yoda scene was another favorite moment.

    Idk theres just so much. I get the gripes people have. They just didnt bother me that much.

    personally I liked Leia using the force. I wouldve hated that being her death. She got to not just sense stuff with the force she actually showed she can use it finally. I thought I actually saw Carrie in this and the OG trilogy Leia which I didnt see in TFA. [/sppoiler]
