Wow, did the website just throw down with a distinction between trilogies now? Just came back in to say I think what I’ve settled on by now is what kind of bad the movie is to me. It’s sort of like watching Droids, the cartoon…or forces of destiny…maybe at its best mixed with an okay 2 parter episode of Doctor Who? For the kids it’s still going to be exciting, similar to my feelings on TFA I wish some time was taken to live in the worlds rather than jerk us around, honestly those return trips to Exogol by the end themselves became very silly it felt like going to the bathroom at your local mall. Forget Batuu give me Exogol I already know my way around! I mean the movie feels like a fever dream. Remember when Rey heals the worm? That was worse than the Rathtars, why can’t they figure out monsters? I swear sometimes watching this felt like watching bible stories, it was so awkward. The kids will have something they can watch over and over again, we all grew up with a few movies like that we now know weren’t as good as the actual good ones, but we still liked them as kids. So fine, ignore us grouches, or don’t? I can’t really tell what movie they were going for in the end and I’m afraid to rewatch it for fear I will prematurely accelerate any deep forehead wrinkles in my face as I try…to understand.
