Summary from this guy:

“The Rise of Skywalker is my least favorite of the 9 core saga films” that comment made by Jeremy literally scares me about this move. I always thought The Last Jedi was the worst of the 3 trilogies so hearing this isn’t good

Based on sites like “Geeks and Gamers” all the bad news, hack plot devices, and like that were leaking are true. Not giving Disney a cent for this ***t.

One thing I will say for these recent Star Wars movies: they always make me appreciate the last one a little more.

Was there any requisite gay content in it?

Apparently Abrams put EVERYTHING into this one in a desperate attempt to “wrap it all up”, and fails miserably. It looks fantastic but I am told it is a frenetic mess that resolves nothing at all.

I read that it has the first LGBTQ+ scene ever in a Disney movie...two women kissing passionately (in the background) after their fleet wins a big battle. Isn’t that just special?

I may never see this one but I do have a question:

Which Skywalker? This film comes after The Last Jedi in which Luke either dies or disappears. So if he is the titular Skywalker, then the only 'Rise' would be from the dead or a transition from his current form.

Or, is Rey actually from the line of Skywalker? I admit I haven't been keeping up on all the details of her existence but this one puzzles me. Who the Frak is this Skywalker who is doing the Rising in this film?

The last Star Wars film I saw was the one in 1996 that revived the series. I found it inferior to Star Wars II (1980) and III (1983), neither of which measured up to the first Star Wars film of 1977, the only one that I watched multiple times.

Hard to believe it could be worse than Last Jedi.

So how many of these ‘star wars’ movies do they have now? 15? 20? I’ve seen one...and that was around 1976. The effects were interesting, the story line was childish and a little kids movie.

Star Wars is still a thing? That reboot movie was Uwe Boll bad. It’really only the first two movies that are good. In reverse order.

I am hoping Yoda pops up at the end...he cuts Rey’s fricking head right off, and tosses the head off to Jar Jar Binks, to be used as a soccer ball.

Off Topic...

“Bombshell” - a movie about sexual harassment at Fox News - opened last Friday at 4 theaters.

It's hard to judge how well or how poorly it's doing with such a tiny sample.

Adam Sandler’s new film - “Uncut Gems” - opened at 5 theaters on the same day.

For the first 4 days, Sandler’s movie has grossed about twice as much per theater as “Bombshell.”

Sandler’s movie is classified as a crime drama and has actually received good reviews - if accurate, that's a huge change of pace for him.

“Bombshell” goes into wide release this Friday.

After the last installment inspired a giant ‘meh’ I’m not so eager to see this. Maybe I’ll go with my daughter.

And more Carrie Fisher? No to be morbid but her performance in the first of this current series was DOA. They should leave her to rest in peace.

yea....

i’ll pass until it’s on FX in 8 months.
the last one was completely ridiculous so it may take the 124th showing for me to finally watch.

If I had known Star Wars would have ended up like this, I would have rooted for The Empire.
