I saw this on Netflix this past weekend and figured it was time to give it a watch. I will admit that I went in completely biased from all the bashing this movie has received from various internet shitlords. I only made it about 20 minutes in. That very early scene where Poe is pretending he can't hear The First Order commander guy was so out of place, I had a feeling that I knew we were off to a bad start. Star Wars has always had comedic moments, but this was like some bad sitcom shit with the bumbling bad guy looking completely retarded. Then Leia went for a space walk and I had to take a break. Maybe I'll finish it up this weekend. I feel like I at least need to watch it once through.

I think it's important for every movie watcher to see a 'blockbuster' that failed and deserves an F rating so we at least look at B and C movies and acknowledge the attempt was made but recognize where it came up short. But it didn't need to be Star Wars, it shouldn't have been a Star Wars movie to teach that lesson to the current generation.

Wait until you get to General Pink Hair.

Ever wonder what Anita Sarkeesian would be like if she were a Fleet Admiral?

The scenes between General Pink Hair and Pasta-Pilot have to be the most cringeworthy and contrived interactions in the history of film. The only thing I'm confused about is whether they intentionally decided to make General Pink a cold condescending cunt bent on cowardice, and Pasta-Pilot the heroic Top Gun with a Plan, only to flip the roles and expose General Pink as the cool and wise sage martyr who had everything planned from the start, and Pasta Pilot as the foolhardy hot head. The role flip is just so jarring and "wtf" because General Pink needlessly acts like a cunt, and through her failure to articulate any plan besides "flee" leaves you with no option but thinking she's a cowardly fool. They could have written some compelling story and interactions between Pink and Pasta-Pilot, but the Feminism Rulz narrative required a totally unrealistic interaction between the two, otherwise there would have been no way to pull off the total nonsensical 180 of General Pink being "right all along" "surprise".

Man this movie was just such total shit. Every time I think about it my Nerd Rage amplifies. Only thing that approaches this level of Nerd Rage is blowing up Vulcan in Star Trek and Spock dating Uhura.. Watching the creator's of this shitshow burning at the stake should be the opening credits to the next Star Wars movie.

The Last Jedi also cockblocked everyone because they had an attractive A-Wing pilot (Tallie). In the beginning of the movie they gave her some lines in the first battle and you're like, "Oh cool a female pilot character!" Nope. She got blown the hell up by Kylo Ren and you get Rose instead.

Haha, this reminds me. Is this the pilot that looked like a 12 year old wearing her dad's oversized helmet?

Yeah, her. Not really a big deal, but it's just another small mistake to throw on a pile of mistakes.

I need every outrage I can get my hands on so I don't go, "Well episode 9 is out. I'll give them my money and hopefully they turned it around."

its worth a one shot viewing. for free, just to laugh at it and all the fanboys crying because toxic oldschool fans didnt like it.

I can't believe anyone gives a shit about this movie all these months later.
you should know by now that nothing on this board is ever done being discussed. we just run out of shit to say until something new happens.

maybe she survived, crashed down on the planet, and will be back in the next movie with cool robot legs.

This movie reminded me of some of the really bad Star Trek movies like Insurrection.

Dude, Insurrection was an infinitely better movie by direct comparison. It still felt like Star Trek, even being cheesy, but it didn't take a colossal shit on the characters and concepts. That's Star Trek V, which was just all around bad for just being blatantly stupid. Oh, wait, that sounds familiar.

Riker controls the Enterprise with a fucking Gravis Blackhawk controller. That may have been one of the stupidest things I have ever watched.

Maybe. When the wife has a headache or is on the rag, I need some fantasy/sci-fi fap material. Leia is old and Rey is like the only passable chick left alive in the SW universe.

I mean, you can't fap to a character if they're dead canonically. That would be weird. I have standards, dammit!
