Visually awesome.

Too much wasted time

Too many plot holes

Too much #metoo stuff

Too much poor writing.
Rian Johnson basically told J.J Abrams to GFH. Too much bad for it to be a good movie.

I’m by no means a massive Star Wars nerd who divulges into all the back stories from comics and shit, but even I couldn’t enjoy the movie at face value because of all the WTF decisions he wrote into the film.
 
I think movie franchises like Star Wars are kind of in a catch 22 in that their fans are desperate to learn and discover more about the Star Wars universe, but once you start introducing more and more and more characters and shit it becomes impossible to keep the movies compact and concise.

I think it was smart for them to kill off those characters though. It'll make the third one better.

But they killed Luke, and Mark Hamil is alive... But they keep Leia alive yet Carrie Fisher is dead.

They easily could have made this the final one. Do we really need a 3rd installment of this with no major characters left?

The major characters are Rey and Kylo. The whole point of these movies was to phase out the classic characters and start a Star Wars for a new generation.

Mark Hamill obviously won’t be around for much but I bet he appears as a force ghost or some shit in the next one.
 
Kylo is going to turn to the good and marry Rey and we will all vomit in the isle of the theatre.

It's gonna be really interesting to see what they do. The next movie is gonna take place after a time jump in the narrative. So who knows what's gonna happen. One of the opening scenes will probably be some funeral for Leia

Leia should have been the one that did the kamikaze strike, instead it went to the purple hair lady. Leia should be Dead.

you act like they knew she was gonna die in real life after the filming of the movie. I think she was supposed to still have a big role in the last one since Kylo clearly still has mommy and daddy issues. But that whole arc is gonna have to be rewritten. He's killed his dad, thought he was literally killing his uncle, so I imagine there were plans to have Kylo in some type of conflict with Leia in the next one. Will be really interesting to see what they do.

He will try to kill his sister again. I don't buy the whole Rey is the galactic milkman's child thing. Kylo cannot be trusted IMHO.

Luke shouldn't have died and been in the next one.
Meh. The teacher always dies in every hero’s journey before the apprentice is truly ready. That’s just how stories work.

It’s a pretty interesting parallel though that both Kylo and Rey’s died in the same film but under totally different circumstances

Maybe but this was a wholly unique situation with the time period we last saw him and the age of him. So many possibilities to go and EVERYONE wanted to see him. The only sure thing to kill the endless possibilities is death.
