I haven’t
even said anything yet!
OK, this is
going to be a controversial one, but it’s time to talk Star Wars again. The
Force Awakens was initially popular, but soon a backlash began to set in with
people complaining that, amongst other things, it was too similar to the
original Star Wars movies. An opinion that has some validity, in my opinion; whilst it does perhaps play it too safe with certain elements, I believe it does have enough differences that it stands on its own
There was no
such wait for the Last Jedi backlash, people were divided on this from the start, with
critics giving it glowing reviews and audiences…. Not so much. There are many
complaints people have about this film, some of which I feel stem from the
general direction of the Force Awakens, some that are genuine and some are…
bullsh*t. Life tip: use the words ‘Social Justice Warrior’ (or SJW) in your
argument and you’ve already lost it.
Fair
warning, I don’t think this movie is perfect, although I have praised it in the
past, so I’m gonna bring attention to the faults of the movie. But I’m also
gonna point out when people are just making sh*t up!
