I wonder how big a percentage of the fanbase it is that's actually bitching about the movie at this point. It got great reviews from critics and audience polls were super positive.
There are already some really awful fan rewrites of TLJ out there. Like so bad that I actually broke out laughing in class reading one.
I still laugh that people wanted Rey to be another Skywalker or even a Kenobi. Why can't she just be a nobody?
I know channels like Nostalgia Critic have taught people that it's fun it is to smugly point out "logical inconsistencies" in movies, but my god. Imagine giving a shit about bombs in Space.
If you had a ship with artificial gravity and dropped bombs out of the bottom of it in space, they'd behave exactly like they do in The Last Jedi. They'd continue travelling in the direction of whatever the last force to act on them was, i.e. the gravity from the ship.At least with those bombs we don't get a super close up so we can at least try to pretend that they have some kind of propulsion system attached to them. In TLJ they go out of their way to show that bombs are falling in outer space. They could have had a high physics student watch that sequence and tell them how incredibly dumb it was.
I was just assuming that putting a metal object like the bombs in the presence of a large magnetic field like a rail gun would cause the bombs to become magnetized themselves. Either way though that doesn't matter since if you look at the area on the bomber where the bombs are dropped from they are just sitting there and then they fall out. There is no current going around them or anything like that, clearly they are not in some railgun or anything like that. I am honestly surprised so many people are trying to explain that scene. It was dumb just like the Kessel Run line, or the Tie Bombers dropping bombs in space. It almost seems like that since a group of nuts went so over the top in criticizing the movie initially that a different group goes way over the top trying to defend it.You literally have no idea what you are talking about.
The bombs are not magnetic. The rails are magnetic, and shoot the bombs downward. Look up a rail-gun.
This is honestly the laziest attempt at a troll.

"where's Rose gone ?"
"oh she went back to the forced diversity planet"
I mean I have a hard time imagining it will be worse than what we got.I hope they do it.
I want to see how truly embarrassing this can get.

Every time I try to find a legitimate criticism for the movie that doesn't sound like a lunatic scribbling the wall with their own feces, I fail miserably.
Seriously, it's been nothing but unrestrained hyperbole in the form of "the movie took my childhood to the back of the barn and flogged the skin off my genitals" and similarly brow-raising comments.
I watch a lot of movies.
so we will have an inbox for story treatment submissions and actually hire people onto the writing team from what we receive!
I mean I have a hard time imagining it will be worse than what we got.
I have some great ideas too!
Snoke is actually Darth Plagueis. He doesn't get killed of course but punishes Rey by cutting off her hand.
Luke goes after Rey, rescues her and kills Kylo in the process, using both his blue and green sabre. They escape the big ship after disabling the hyperdrive
Because the hyperdrive is disabled, Holdo, Leia, Rose and Finn escape to the planet Sojuwa.
Plagueis, needs new apprentices, and through ancient Sith magic revives Darth Revan and Darth Talon.
We find out there was a second Starkiller planet and they use it to blow up Sojuwa, killing Holdo, Leia, Rose and Finn.
The movie ends with a shimmer of hope, as Luke and Rey (with an artificial hand) creat the Grey Jedi Order.
Who knows what they could come up, maybe theyre very creative.If you watch a lot of movies and have a hard time imagining a fanfic film with fake pledge money being worse than The Last Jedi, a movie written by people still truly upset six months after release, I don't know what to tell you.
I mean yes I was being slightly hyperbolic here.
It's a great twist in that it perfectly mirrors the plot twist of Empire Strikes BackI still laugh that people wanted Rey to be another Skywalker or even a Kenobi. Why can't she just be a nobody?
The fans have turned into George Lucas. The cycle is complete.
No need to remake it.
Want a do-over that solves (nearly) everything, but going forward with ep IX?
Here's how:
Rapid montage (like flashes) of all the events of TLJ flowing backwards, and end on the frozen eye of Leia, floating in space.
She never flew back in. She died. What we saw from that point on was a mix of Force visions and hallucinations.
Now Leia being dead, Holdo actually tells the crew her plan (she still ends up ramming her ship in Snoke's dreadnought as a cover, but not using HS), Finn and Rose realizing their plan is stupid, Leia's last call to her brother with the Force to train Rei and help the resistance makes him decide to join in, the last stand on Crait they are actually helped by incoming ships including the Falcon, and Luke arrives on the planet with Rei to help evacuate, they make it out barely in time. Whether Luke dies in an epic fight vs Kylo or goes on being a mentor for Rei is up in the air, it can be good either way imo.
Done. Kinda wastes 20-30minutes to undo awful stuff from TLJ, but no need to remake the entire movie.
For toys sure.
