“You know what? Fuck it.”
You’re right. It’s how the movie was made.
Screenplay ? Fuck it
Editing ? Fuck it
Production value ? Fuck it
Consistency ? Fuck it
The OT ? Fuck it
The PT ? Fuck it
Episode 8 ? Fuck it
This movie is a middle finger made by people who don’t give a shit anymore. I can understand the morbid feeling to witness that, to see Carrie Fisher butchered to oddly be there (like Bela Lugosi in Plan 9), but it feels so wrong in every single way…
Chewie is dead ? No… fuck it
3PO got a memory wipe ? No… fuck it
Heroes are gonna die ? No, Hux is the spy…
Rey’s parents were nobody… by choice ! You’re actually a Palpatine…
etc.
Even Lucas’s AOTC screenplay is less dumb. It’s saying A LOT…
