As I'm not a Star Wars fan I've not seen the latest reboots, although they definitely look intriguing. But why such a divergence of opinion between audience and critics on The Last Jedi? Don't think I've known a film that has as big a gulf in differing receptions between the two audiences.
Totally ignores FA and is Inconsistent, producer and director pushes their political agenda's into the film, ruins Luke (Hamill has been out spoken about this), Mary Sue, No lightsaber vs Lightsaber battles... but mainly poor story telling/writing.
Kathleen Kennedy (producer) said in an interview that the reason why males are killed off/weak is because females needed role models , hence the fluctuation of Mary Sue's in the film. Also, apparently, if we didn't like TLJ, it's because we are frightened of female dominance, or was it, strong female characters (I can't remember). Either way, how does that explain our love for Sarah Connor, Ripley, Leia, WW etc etc?
And why have critics been praising it? I am sure Disney paid them off, that or no more invites to premiers
I remember being so hyped by the film because they were saying it was as good, if not better than ESB
After the trash was released and the mass negative reviews circulated, critics pinned it down to hackers or a small handful making multiple accounts and downvoting on sites, and another reason why we supposedly hated it was because our theories were wrong :S
