There's some crap in there. This takes the cake...

Wow, if that's how fans want Star Wars to go, I think I may be done... with Star Wars fans. Wow. (I hold out hope that this was made to troll the trolls.)
When the aliens come, this is the exact post that they will reference right before they exterminate humanity.![]()
It's true. All of it. --Han about fanboy predictions for TLJ's plotWhen the aliens come, this is the exact post that they will reference right before they exterminate humanity.![]()
Their post? Or mine?![]()
Their post. Yours would only irritate them enough to keep the secret of immortality from us.![]()
Ok, so let's think about this. If TLJ went EXACTLY how many predicted it would... would you have disliked the movie?
IMO there is nothing wrong with occasional warm blanket of a movie. After all, TFA was one.
Would you want two in a row though? I enjoy a comfort film as much as the rest, and would probably find things to like about TLJ. But, as much as I don't like ESB, it opened up storytelling possibilities that would not have been considered had that film not been made. Same with TPM and TLJ as well.Ok, so let's think about this.

I think it would have been an empty feeling. Content, but "Eh?" I think a few months later (a la TFA), some critics would come out of the woodwork. On the other hand, I adored TFA. I just think after your warm blanket, you need some cold reality. TLJ gave us a little of that.

That's a fair point. But, I don't just want a film to make me happy. I enjoy it too when there is challenge, surprises or even things I would have never thought of. I think seeing a different vision is part of what makes films like Star Wars so special. They are unique worlds that different people engage in different ways.I really liked not getting anything that I expected out of TLJ. I came in expecting that I know everything that will happen, and it turned out that I know nothing. That was fun. Having said that, had I gotten everything I expected I'd come out of the theater perfectly happy too. It would probably have been a worse movie, but I'd have been happy.
I wonder if I should put "'Mary Sue she is not' ~ Yoda about Rey" into my signature...There's some crap in there. This takes the cake...
