I was in a bad mood the day after I saw this. Like a really bad mood. Maybe that's my subconscious telling me I didn't like it.

I kinda feel like I don’t have a handle on any of these characters or their motivations. Luke is especially vague. The development of everyone has been very weak. Ren is the most interesting, but even he is not being used to his full potential.E.H. Ruddock wrote:Again, I liked it.

Best scene in the movie easilyE.H. Ruddock wrote:Also, wtf Luke milking space cow titties

Yeah and Finn and Poe were just in this movie because they survived the last one it felt likeLoathedVermin72 wrote:I kinda feel like I don’t have a handle on any of these characters or their motivations.

Poe went through a lot in this movie. Necessary growth to become the leader the Resistance needs.E.H.

that's what you end up with after fly boy poe dameron's already laid waste to the bulk of the resistanceLoathedVermin72 wrote:One thing that is sticking with me is how small-scale this movie is. It feels almost cheap and claustrophobic. Johnson doesn’t seem to think in scale or spectacle. Even the climax - it’s like a handful of walkers against one door. It’s downright tiny compared to the sprawling imagination of previous SW movies. He seems to have trouble juggling multiple balls at once in terms of action and location. As much as I hate TFA, even Abrams was better at this.
Did he though? He fought that big ship. Then basically disappears for the most part until his stunned ass wakes up on CraitStrat wrote:Poe went through a lot in this movie.

That's something I didn't quite understand either. Why didn't they trust Poe? Were they further punishing him? Why treat him like a child?LoathedVermin72 wrote:Laura Dern’s character was a straight-up asshole dummy.
