Some just nitpick, some dislike it because it is supposedly too different, some dislike it because it is not different enough.

Some dislike it because of the path it took with several established aspects of the saga, ranging from characters to pretty much anything.

Some hate the way that Snoke ended up being 100 porgs in a humanoid costume.

“Snoke is in the bathroom and I’m standing right here, so as you can see, we’re clearly two different people. One tall evil alien and one tiny harmless Porg. Okay, bye!”

Given Frink’s respect for the spoiler policy, we know this isn’t true. Which is in and of itself a spoiler. Dammit, Frink!

At least that he could be a They Came From Outer Space alien who took on the form of Vader’s rotting corpse is still a possibility.

This entire time I’ve remained completely spoiler free and literally one day before I go to see it some asshole I’m friends with posts a meme that jokingly includes a huge spoiler and it’s true. I’m fucking pissed and I unfriended him over it.

You could return the favor if he’s going to see Infinity War? Just kidding. 😉

Without spoilers, what are the most common reasons why some people dislike The Last Jedi?

Much of the plot is constrained within a very specific and limited circumstance that doesn’t really fit with the established rules of the Star Wars universe.

So TFA was too much like SW, and TLJ sucks because it is not just like SW. OK.

It’s not that. There are certain aspects to the way, for example, the Force is portrayed in the Original Trilogy by those who make overt use of it—how they control it, and how it controls them. This movie seems to color use of the Force, subtle or overt, in a different fashion than the OT does and in a way that people feel recolors certain bits of the OT in a way they dislike.

That’s still non-spoilery, but it’s as close to not-nonspoilery as I can get and still explain.

Just a notice that the spoiler policy on TLJ will be lifted on Feb. 15th at 12:00 AM Pacific time. If you haven’t seen the movie by then…

Spoiler policy on the Han Solo movie remains in place of course.
