im sorry but it is stupid we cannot discuss the movie openly on the OT.

my opinion is that Abrams is a hack, but i enjoyed it nonetheless.

i always said that didnt want Kylo to be redeemed, but i dont know, they won me over.

Fuck Kylo Ren, The kiss was some real save the nazi white boy ass shit and I'll forever hold it against the whole sequel trilogy for writing that trash. I wanted to throw up seeing that kiss happen.

The optics on Rey falling in love with the nazi murderer dude instead of the black guy are to be discussed

Palpatine wanted Rey brought to him so she could kill him and he could pass through to carry on his soul. If Snoke was Palpatines puppet, why was Snoke having Kylo strike down Rey in TLJ?

Also this guy got thrown down a well and almost dies and he tries the exact same plan? To have the last Jedi turn to the darkside only to betray him? What a dumb use of him.

Also Rey kissing Ben? She saw him kill Han. 8 hours after stabbing Kylo and doing an oopsie she's ready to kiss him? That felt so out of place.

This movie should be called out for all of its dumb choices.

The kiss did not work for me at all.. Jeeez what was JJ thinking?

Its his worst movie yet.
I’m not defending him really, there are some shot decisions here, but :

Take an already tight production schedule, then add in that JJ had to come in late due to Treverrows firing, and that he was working with the less talented of the two writers behind BvS and that they were largely constructing a new plot, it’s no wonder that this film ended up being a mess.

Isn't it obvious?
Palpatine knew Kylo would instead kill Snoke and offer Rey to join him. If Rey accepted he would have had both Rey and Kylo as his Sith buddies...

or maybe the writers didn't give a crap lol

I knew I was right to be worried when Terrio kept
mentioning in his interviews that he spent alot of time researching SW on the net.

This shit stings extra hard because I loved TFA and TLJ.

What's the word for when you love how angry sometimes makes people?

Because that's how I feel about Reylo being canon. Had the same feeling with Korrasami.

the truly sad part is that Rian gave the next director a blank canvas. and yet they couldnt do something "out there" they made the safest thing they could.

Hey little girls watching this movie, you should totally fall in love with the equivalent of a school shooter.

Also if you're an incel, don't worry, girls find that attractive.

Yeah let's compare a ship romanticizing an evil abusive fascist to one of the first genuine lesbian couples in a kid's cartoon.

Haven't seen it yet but the kiss scene is just complete bull and I absolutely hate that JJ went that direction.

Apparently Finn and Rey is a no no but Ben and Rey? The space nazi and the main character? Totally okay cause he was redeemed. /s

does the timeline add up?

rey's father looked no older than 35 tops
It not really about the timeline, but the questions that it brings up. Palapatine had a son? When did he have a son? Is it maybe a clone? Why did he have a son?
And it just just sounded silly to me "Rey Palatine"...

Even so his plan was to try the same tactic like in RotJ that got him killed? Have the sith bring the last jedi to him. Have the jedi try and cave by watching their friends in danger...Except with more lasers this time?

Let's go with the writers didn't give a crap.

Ben is the best thing that came out of the ST and his character is one of the very best in the entire franchise.

Sooo uuuh if Rey wasn’t a palpatine ... the ending would have still worked right? Choose your own family.

Why did JJ feel the need to bombard us with answers?

Rey and Ren’s mutual attraction was plot point in TLJ. It’s not exactly new. Once they decided to let Ren turn into Ben the kiss was inevitable.

They have to wrap up 9 movies and they decide to spend time on bad one liners and Babu Frik. Because we all know he was the glue holding the saga together. No time with Ben and Luke which would have been worth exploring was dissappointing. Especially when Luke says see you around kid. But at least we got Giant snake in tunnels.

Also isn't Kylo kissing Rey some hillbilly cousin kiss? If Palpatine made Anakin, which led to Ben and Rey is Palpatines granddaughter.

On one hand Adam and Daisy had the closest thing to chemistry in the Disney movies. Daisy and John really didn't.

On the other hand, Kylo Ren is literally patricidal space Hitler so what in the name of fuck

The kiss was likely only added in reshoots because the leaks describe the ending differently. It was clearly just thrown in hoping to win brownie points with the fanbase.
