Finally got round to seeing Rise of Skywalker.

2/10

Absolute dogshit. This whole trilogy has been rubbish, the so-called heroes were pathetic I was actually rooting for Palpatine.

I only watched the first one (by which i mean episode 7) - it was typical JJ Abrams wafer-thin 'forget about the plot let's just have loads of action while crapping all over the history of the franchise' (star trek anyone?) - i gave up then and there

The Last Jedi was WAY better, up there with Empire.

They should have let Rian Johnson do the whole trilogy. JJ is a hack.

Ok, maybe i'll check that out

Yes, 'a hack' is a good way of putting it

I thought the whole trilogy was great.
I mean, it’s all nonsense but aren’t all of them?
Entertaining fun, IMO.

I didn’t mind them. Not perfect and full of plot holes but it’s mostly fan service. More excited about the other projects from the universe they’ve got coming up now the Skywalker saga is done and dusted.

The Mandalorian was brilliant so there’s a lot to look forward to if that’s anything to go by.

There's good nonsense and bad nonsense - Abrams' stock in trade is very, very, bad nonsense

There aren't enough blacks in Star Wars. It should be taken down. It comes from a galaxy far, far away where opinions and attitudes were different.

Seriously man, is there no safe haven on this board where we can be spared your ravings?

I'll check if there's a safe haven from lefties and their insanity and I'll direct you there when I don't find it.
