Memoirs of a Novelty Account

I agree. Seems that people like to bag on things new and to me that is counterproductive. You want more of something, you encourage it. Or just hold on to the past, which will in time fade into memory and no longer be current.

 

I liked the new movie. It was fun. Liked the ending and how that was handled. Great stuff.

Yes. The box office return alone should tell you how many people have gone to see it. They can complain all they want, but they've still given the studio their money and more will be made.

I believe I feel the same way! At first I was confused by 1 or 2 directions of TLJ, but I've already mentally accepted that THIS is the storyline now. The film was a great watching experience both times and I'll buy it.

 

If it had gone a more fan traditional path, if Rey was Luke's daughter anf Luke physically showed up and did age defying backflips and cut down Kylo Ren ... i think that kind of stuff might have made the film more dull longterm.

I absolutely loved The Last Jedi. I really, really enjoyed it.
