To be fair, I was embarrassed to be a Star Wars fan in 1998, but for different reasons.
This. When I see this much (supposed) effort into changing something, I just keep thinking "That's an awful lot of money that could go to some good charities...". In this case, perhaps some charities and foundations that offer counselling for those finding it difficult to come to terms with their emotional attachments to a space fantasy series.Imagine what they could do putting that money to a useful purpose.
He overthrew anything introduced in the 7th movie, so that's why I think he was trolling (Snoke, the helmet, Luke being the savior)
Poor creepy Kylo, I felt that pain. I'd watch your movie.REY: What's inside the cave, Master?
LUKE: Only what you take with you. And microscopic Force ghosts. You'll love how visionary those are.
*REY enters the cave. It's exactly like the one out of Empire Strikes Back because of the poetry and George's superior vision*
REY: Hello?
*REY stumbles back, aghast. It's KYLO REN.*
KYLO: You've come back to me like I knew you would because I'm a good guy who'll treat you right.
REY: But I don't want you. I love CHAD DAMERON.
KYLO: When did CHAD DAMERON last call?
REY: ...
KYLO: Exactly. I'd call you every hour of the day.
REY: Okaaaayyy. I have to go now.
KYLO: And you'll call me won't you?
REY: I might be busy later. Bye.
*REY runs out of the cave*
LUKE: And?
REY: It was KYLO REN. He just won't leave me alone. Is this the lesson? That the Dark Side will follow and pester me until I have sex with him?
LUKE: You have taken a step to a more enlightened future. Now concentrate. You can hear it. The Force. Dark and Light. Listen. Accept the message it has for you.
REY: I... I hear it.
LUKE: And what it is saying to you?
REY. Send nudes.
"I have over a thousand confirmed movie viewings"Remember though, we're supposed to take those who passionately hate The Last Jedi seriously.
I don't know how much you know about movies (I'm an expert)
But this time girls like it, and I like girls.To be fair, I was embarrassed to be a Star Wars fan in 1998, but for different reasons.
Of course they do. They're delusional.
Good. The Last Jedi is the worst movie I've ever seen. I'm 34 and have seen over 1000 movies.
TLJ ruined my fandom of star wars. Solo was quite enjoyable though.

These are the typical reasons given:
-Canto Bight subplot is boring, unnecessary, drags on. DJ is introduced like a deus ex machina. "Marvel humor"
-Finn and Poe do nothing worthwhile
-Rose is "annoying" and had a stupid line toward the end
-They hyperspace ram "breaks the internal consistency of the universe"
-Admiral Holdo has purple hair
-Why didn't Holdo tell Poe the plan?
-Ackbar deserved a better death
-Leia flying was dumb
-Luke is depressed and not a super badass like in the old books, it's against his character to have contemplated killing Ben Solo, his death sequence is stupid
-First Order shouldn't be able to take over the galaxy so quickly. Lack of political element/galaxy feels small.
-Battle of Crait is a Hoth rehash
-No Knights if Ren
-Snoke didn't get a backstory
-Rey's parents should have been important
-Rian was obsessed with subversion to the point of ruining TFA retroactively
I think most of these are dumb points. Personally I think Canto Bight felt rushed and could have been fleshed out more, and I wish there was more about Snoke and the political situation in the galaxy, but otherwise it was a pretty good movie.
Eh, 7 was pretty much building up to the point where Rey meets Luke. Johnson then uses the scene for a cheap joke. Finn pretty much becomes a side character. The mighty Snoke who can manipulate people thousands of lightyears apart dies pretty quick by a cheap trick, a few minutes after we actually see him (which looked to be a big reveal because he was only seen in 7 as a holographic character), and his bodyguards are more different to beat.If you're trying to argue that Rian Johnson "overthrew everything" in The Force Awakens and one of three examples you can come up with is "he broke Kylo Ren's helmet," there's a chance you might be grasping at straws.
The fans have turned into George Lucas. The cycle is complete.

Mostly the type who screech on about Soy Wars and how Kathleen Kennedy is ruining the franchise with SJW FEMINISM, but yeah. The types who call Holdo "Admiral Tumblr".

Yep. I've seen people use Holdo's wardrobe against the movie too. As if women with unusual hairdos or dressed in gowns have no place leading a military force in Star Wars.
The fate of a Sith. You know, Dath Plagueis, Palpatine's master, was seen as the most powerful Sithlord during his time ... until ge got murdered by Palpatine in his sleep. No big fight, no clash of the dark side ... nope the biggest Sithlord was murdered by a dude called Sheev in his freaking sleep.
It's actually very Star Wars that Kylo Ren uses the first good chance to get rid off his master in order to take control for himself.
So this boils down to "hating on something just to hate it"? I've found so many of the TLJ to be contradicting b/c of the very thing you pointed out
Luke is the savior still. He obviously went to the island for a reason, were people actually expecting him to just be like "Oh, hell yeah im game let's save the day!" He went into hiding, he was always going to be hesitant.
