The negative reactions to The Last Jedi have been very justifiable for a film that doesn't even deserve to be called a Star Wars film. One thing I can assure you Keirarts, once the dust has settled with The Last Jedi, you'll find even more people realising just how rubbish this film truly is. In some cases it might take some people years to come to the realisation than others. Certainly did for TFA's.
There's no merit in supporting a turkey of a film like this, no matter how much money The Last Jedi takes at the Box Office. | Bollocks.
The film did nothing for you. That's fine. No film will appeal to everyone..
But plenty of people like last Jedi. It's a well constructed and reasonably thoughtful and progressive entry in the franchise. It's made by a director who is well regarded in the industry.
If Disney scraps star wars. Pretends it never happened. Closes down the theme parks and hands the series back to Lucas I'd bet cash money we'd be here having the same discussions once Lucas had turned out three more of his 'vision
The people complaining will never get the star wars they want. It's not possible to make that film.
All the critics did was give an opinion on the film itself as a standalone product. It's pretty hard to factor in the impact of 40 years of fandom with tie ins, cartoons, the Christmas special (yes no one's forgetting that). Or any of the other expanded universe stuff Disney wisely disregarded.
