A friend sent me a text that he and another friend were going to the early showing. I told him to get back to me if he thought I would like it. We saw A New Hope together in ‘77. Haven’t heard from him and it’s 11:20 pm here. Silence can say a lot sometimes.
Ham fisted is literally how I've described it to others as well. That exact term. Though I'd disagree that it's anything like the prequels. If anything, it's like it tried too much to not be the prequels. Example being taking the force, and instead of giving it the clinical explanation of being midichlorians, it became this weird, philosophical, mystical thing that Rian Johnson could play around with like playdough.
From what I gather from comments and YouTube reviews Rian basically let the older fans that kept this franchise going this long, know is we can go f**k ourselves. I’m running things now I don’t give a shit about the old Stars Wars mythos. Heroes are a dead concept. Lucas has no input, even though Ms. Kennedy promised and wanted his input.
He apparently he has said he regrets selling Lucasfilms to Disney. What did he think would happen?? Frankly I am sick of Disney. Walt would be ashamed of how they have used his name to take over the entertainment industry and all the other BS they are pulling.
I agree Rian fucked it all up, but I think The Force Awakens is the best Star Wars movie ever made, and Rogue One was solid too, Disney hasn’t ruined it any worse than Lucas himself did. I just hope JJ can recover from this disaster in IX
I basically think of the three good ones, TFA, ESB, and RO. The “meh” ones, 4/6, and the bad ones 1/2/3. Except the Last Jedi is closer to being in the bad group then the meh group
