    The Last Jedi is the best Star Wars movie since the OT. Then they “course corrected” after listening too closely to online discourse, and ended up really ruining the franchise.

      I loved the “anyone can be special” message, even when rammed down our throat by having the slave stable boy force pull the broom to himself at the end of the movie.

      I hated them undoing that and going “hahahaha, no, you’re actually one of the two special families!!” in Rise of Skywalker.

      God forbid a Star Wars movie be interesting or play with fan expectation. Trying to please the Star Wars fandom is like a battered woman trying to make sure that dinner is ready and hot when he gets home.
