Forum Overview :: Peter Molyneux's The Movies :: Completely agree

[quote name="Vested Id"][quote name="Fullofkittens"]I personally enjoyed it more than any of the prequels and way *way* more than RISE OF SKYWALKER. As somebody that generally enjoys big blockbuster action movies (see: all the Marvel movies) it was frankly shocking to sit there in the theater and <i>have no idea</i> what was going to happen next and I loved that aspect of it. It seems like what Rian Johnson attempted to do in THE LAST JEDI was: open the Star Wars universe up into a franchise where you don't know exactly what you're going to get when you walk into the theater.[/quote] It sucks, I want to condemn it totally, because (like Knives Out) there is some painfully obnoxious bullshit in there. But it's the first fresh one in a generation. It's also the only film to try to break out of the cycle of procreation of the previous films. And of course that was shut down in the next one. [quote]THE LAST JEDI wasn't great but at least it had the courage to be weird. RISE OF SKYWALKER is just bad.[/quote][/quote]
