No way.  ST > PT

I loved The Last Jedi, but it has the 2nd most dull score in SW. (AOTC is the worst)

I'm an expert on nostalgia but the idea of bringing all the OT characters together would be taking the soap opera aspect of the franchise too far. 

We see Han and Leia together, and Leia and Luke through the Force. The only two that don't reunite is Luke and Han.  

Yeah, I don't know who the fuck it was who gave us the only official isolated score of the whole franchise! 
(TPM UE, that misguided mess, was only on CD where it never should have been so doesn't count)

I did not get this impression at all.

Epic failure? Sure, Solo didn't do "great" for a Star Wars film, but it still did good in the box office, and is continuing to make money from home media. Also, I've seen nothing but praise for Alden Ehrenreich's portrayal of Han Solo, even from the people who "boycotted" the film.
 
There's just no way a handful of crybabies had any impact at all on Solo. TLJ was a great film; Lucasfilm has no reason to "change their tune". They're doing a fantastic job and I hope they keep it up. I've been satisfied with all of the new films thus far and couldn't be more excited for IX.
 
If the "majority of fans" hated TLJ, do you really think everyone in this thread would be arguing with you? No, they would be agreeing with you, and I have yet to see anyone do that. You're clearly in the minority.

That's definitely my #1. 

Star Wars: Cultural Learnings of Naboo for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Jakku

What about ROTJ when the A-wing crashes into the Star Destroyer?
 
I don't have any problem with Holdo's sacrifice. It was a great scene.  And Finn was trying to be noble, which really showed how much his character changed from initially trying to run away.

Luke being reduced to a depressed, broken shell of himself is more realistic than the infantile fantasy many fans had that he'd destroy the First Order with his giant laser dick.

NO!

I hate questions like this. Obviously it looked really good.

I've been thinking this will be how Game of Thrones ends. 

Literally!

14 months ago, would you have guessed that the fandom would be split in half after TLJ... that SOLO would have lost $200M... and that the Star Wars consumer products division is costing Disney money?
 
 
Rey is the principal protagonist of the sequel trilogy. For most fans to accept her, she must be someone of significance.
 
 
Delusion? The irony! As a customer, I am not entitled to anything. Just as Disney/Lucasfilm are not entitled to the fans' business.
 
How were "The Force can be wielded by anybody" and "greatness can come from the humblest of places" significant themes of TLJ? 'Failure can be one's greatest teacher' was a significant theme. Again, what irony.
 
 
Rey's powers and origin must be explained more completely than 'she is the good to Kylo's bad'. Based on a passage in one of the Aftermath novels, Rey could have come from a Force test-tube... of Palpatine's creation.

If it is confirmed in Episode 9 that Rey is just "an orphan scavenger from some sh*thole in the Galaxy" with no further explanation, then the movie will bomb, and the entire trilogy will have been a waste of time, concern, and money for the majority of Star Wars fans. An explanation of her origin and substantial powers absolutely must be presented in IX.

The Last Jedi is a dumpster fire, quite possibly the most disappointing film ever made. The way it subverted the fans' expectations was particularly foolish on RUIN Johnson's part, making everyone despise Disney Star Wars. And when J.J. returns for the final installment, people will call it 'too little, too late' and 'one piece of a larger failure', proving once and for all that agenda-driven individuals - who dismissed and insulted the fans - attempted to destroy Star Wars and rebuild it in their own image - but utterly failed.
 
 
Not a chance. Time will not change what the keepers of Star Wars have done. Unless they apologize for the accusations and insults and/or let KK and/or RJ go, the boycott will be quite operational when Episode IX arrives.
 
 
Luke should have tried to 'snuff out the Dark Side in Ben' before that night... or talked to him the next day. Instead, Rian Johnson chose to disgrace him - plain and simple. And RJ will never admit that he was wrong for portraying him in that way.
 
The difference is, Obi-Wan and Yoda attempted to defeat their enemies before going into hiding. Luke approached his problems in the worst way. He avoided confrontation with Ben, considered assassination... but was caught, and then gave up immediately, went into isolation, and died alone - needlessly, in my opinion.
 
 
So you admit that, at this time, things are not "fine"?
 
 
Yes, 'succumb' was what I meant.
 
Who gives a shit if Luke consciously acted on murdering Ben? Most of the fans do, many who have given up on Disney Star Wars. Disney shareholders will also not be pleased that Star Wars is in decline.
 
A)  If Luke thought that Ben was "emotionally compromised" and "believed in that moment that Ben was a threat" and "felt the Dark Side within him in moments in his training", why didn't he attempt to talk to him... or subdue him... or warn others?
 
B)  Everyone knows that Luke was "a flawed individual". But a Jedi Academy Instructor would never ignite a lightsaber to KILL someone in cold blood, much less a sleeping student. An act so dastardly can never be "pure impulse and instinct", even if he acted on fear of a possible future. Luke may have immediately regretted what he had done, but he acted consciously.
 
 
Wrong. Luke was always flawed. That's what made him interesting and relatable... unlike Rey.
 
 
By the fans' standard, that's not even remotely correct. ROTJ or ROTS would win that poll. TLJ would be towards the bottom of the list.
 
 
Keep telling yourself that, but it won't save TLJ from be remembered as the movie that broke the fandom... and was the primary cause of a Star Wars film loosing money at the box office. (That, and also the studio - and the studio-friendly media's - response to the backlash... and the fact that SOLO was essentially made twice due to awful leadership.) You will never convince those that have realized that Disney are shoveling Star Wars-branded crap.
 
 
The Force Awakens is Disney showing the world that Star Wars can be entirely unoriginal and safe... to a fault. It was very carefully created to make lots of money. Shame they couldn't keep the 'success ball' rolling... and keep from insulting the fans.
 
 
The prequels have issues, but a solid story was their strength. So far, solid story-telling is the sequel trilogy's biggest weakness.

ffs it's been over a year, just let it go

It's the same guy
