So I rented ‘The Last Jedi’ on You Tube for 2.99. I was curious to see the movie for myself since so many people panned it, yet never does anyone give specific reasons as to ‘why’ they hate it. Only generic blanket statements.



First off, the movie was fantastic! Lots of action, a few laughs, and it had every bit of the drama and tension of the originals.

Now I grew up watching the original trilogy on VHS. I’m going to type that gain so people do not pretend to not see that detail: I grew up watching the original trilogy on VHS.



And I cannot see why people are saying the movie is so bad. One lie they tell is that it has feminist propaganda… Don’t worry it doesn’t. I watched the whole thing and it doesn’t.

Another complain is that ‘all the original characters die’ What they mean to say is ‘Only Luke dies’ Leah lives, Chewy lives, R2 D2 lives, C3PO lives… Also Luke’s death was super dignified and super heroic!



The movie heavily had a theme of ‘moving on’ moving on from the past and seeing what is here now! The two original hero’s dying, Han in the last movie and Luke in this one foreshadow that theme. That theme of letting go of the past and looking at the NOW to build a future! ALSO need I remind you that Obi Wan, a hero of a bygone era, was killed in the original trilogy so you should not act surprised.



Ironic that the central theme of ‘letting go of the past’ was lost on so many…

Also, the light-saber whips that the guards had were cool AF!!!
