I have to say, I enjoyed TLJ a lot on bluray. I’m gonna miss Snoke though. I love a true evil mofu…

Huh!.. very interesting turn of opinion. What changed your mind when rewarching it on home video if you don’t mind me asking?

I think I just accepted it’s flawed, and tried to look past those flaws, and then found I enjoy Mark Hamill’s performance a lot. Snoke is a better Emperor than Ian McDiarmid’s prequel reinterpretation, which was just campy without being menacing. I also found the Kylo/Rey skype sessions to be one of the more original elements in the film, that ended up being really effective. I also really enjoyed the last act, with Kylo betraying Snoke, and Luke pulling the wool over the eyes of his former student. Overall it’s an above average blockbuster, that also happens to be a Star Wars film.
