Really interested to hear what people think about R1 who didn’t like TFA.
Outside of the first thirty to forty minutes, TFA was a great letdown for me. It’s somewhere with the prequels in my world, I can tolerate it but I mostly ignore it as a wasted opportunity (at best) and a very bad movie (at worst).
See my post above -> I absolutely loved Rogue One, despite some flaws.
I only hope Rian Johnson is more like Gareth Edwards than JJ in his vision for Ep. VIII …
