I didn't want to write this, but this movie has seriously affected my daily life. Do not vomit quickly.

Noun reference: TFA=The Force Awaken=EP7 TLJ=The Last Jedi=EP8, that is, the film RJ=Rian Johnson, the director and screenwriter of the film JJ=JJAbrams, the director and screenwriter of EP7 and 9

Every word of what you just said was wrong

Due to the many controversies brought about by the previous EP7 re-engraving of EP4, the speculation of whether this film will continue to copy EP5 has always been a hot topic before its release. On December 11, the media rating was lifted, and Rotten Tomatoes opened with a 93% freshness rating. Many comments mentioned that "the Empire Strikes Back was not copied", and a story full of reversals and surprises emerged from the original old pattern.

You think Rey is a son of the Force, a descendant of Skywalker, a descendant of the Sith...—an orphan who was sold by his parents for wine money. You think Luke ran off to Kojima alone with an unknown secret to endure the humiliation and dormancy for 30 years—they were just being stimulated to hide and eat and wait to die. You thought that Snoke's origins and strengths would finally be revealed in this film--showing the special hobby of the Force's connection, and it would be a fart after it was done. You thought Holdo's bureaucratic face, the new leader of the Resistance, was distasteful - and they sacrificed themselves to save the Resistance. Although the escape plan is hidden, I will not say it. You thought you'd see a Rogue One-style struggle story on the FinnRose line - but they failed in a high-profile way, and they slapped the Resistance, adding 30 minutes of ineffective time for nothing.

Surprised or not? Are you surprised? Applause rang out!

Let director Rian Johnson, who is at the forefront of the times, tell you how small your pattern is and how narrow your vision is. And don't forget to teach you twice with Luke's mouth: Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong.

How do I feel this sentence is said to JJ.

JJ: Foreshadowing an entire episode of Rey's life experience, and stuffing a lot of information into the lightsaber vision, no matter what the media says, I just don't say it. RJ: She is nothing. JJ: Divide the map that records Luke's coordinates into two parts, and get him out of the mountain by collecting all the puzzle pieces. RJ: What map, doesn't exist. Luke didn't want to be found and discovered by anyone at all. JJ: Isn't Knight Of Rens's concave shape in the rain very handsome and awesome? I have to save this game of chess and play it slowly. RJ: There is no trace of KOR in this film. Do not look unhappy.

Schrödinger's KOR.

This movie was Rian Johnson's "fuck you" to JJAbrams.

When we evaluate a chapter-style film, we not only look at what it tells, but also look at its inheritance of the previous story and the recovery of the foreshadowing. This is handled badly in TLJs. The whole movie is full of RJ's personal interests, and it seems that he didn't even seriously discuss the general direction of the script with JJ.

This pot has to let Disney carry it. TLJ's script was written during the filming of TFA. At that time, RJ only got the TFA script and some samples. Disney gave him full creative rights and let him continue to write according to his own understanding on this basis. Yes, the new trilogy does not even have a complete script outline . The two directors randomly doodle in the areas they identify and are good at, and then hand over to each other. Logically, it's almost as good as it gets.

I didn't understand that Disney's script for the Star Wars reboot could be so sloppy with such an elaborate industrial system. Coupled with the change of director of Han Solo's independent film and some pessimistic rumors, maybe Disney hates Star Wars and acquires Lucas just to destroy this IP. ---I believe.

RJ took over such a big mess of "The Reason for Skywalker's Recluse" from JJ, and simply broke the can. "Let the past die" is a total negation of JJ's setting in EP7; "I cannot be betrayed, I cannot be beaten. I see his mind, I see his every intent." Snoke was stabbed just after saying this. Cut in half, this is a mockery of JJ outside the play; the final complement: "Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong."

Didn't copy The Empire Strikes Back? The whole movie is a counterattack from RJ. The two core scenes representing the main color of red, Snoke's red guards and Kreit's white saline-alkali land, have not replaced the elements of EP5 with layers of skin.

I'm a Jedi, like my father before me.

I also admit that this movie has some redeeming qualities. I especially like Rey reaching out to the raindrops under the millennium, feeling the touch of rain for the first time. She has exuberant curiosity and a matching action force. After Luke warned the existence of the dark force abyss, she jumped into the hole without hesitation and stared at the endless mirror image of herself on the rock wall. The silence was like weeping. Lonely. I have no problem with the shaping of the new protagonist.

I also like the interpretation of Force in the film, I like every second of Luke and Leia's confrontation, I like the two-wheeled sunset like Tatooine, and I like the little boy who took the broom from the air at the end.

But Luke's character handling is my bottom line. Whenever I see some people classify fans who don't like TLJ and are dissatisfied with Luke's treatment as a fundamentalist cancer, yes, maybe you know Luke and Star Wars better than Mark Hamill.

It's shocking to hear Luke say, "I know only one truth: it's time for the Jedi to the end" - the last time we saw him, he was the most optimistic character. He was sort of at the peak of his powers, and you would imagine that he'd then become a Jedi master and train other people and so forth. What has happened to him that has so traumatised him into where he is now? - Entertainment magazine, Hamill initially learned of Luke's situation Reaction.

Note, Hamill's point is to wonder what happened to make Luke change so much. What matters is not the result, but the process. We understand that time goes by and things change, and we can accept his personality shift, strength decline, aging, and death, but refuse to destroy his will [without process and reason]. Where is the respect for the character?

I at one point had to say to Rian,'I pretty much fundamentally disagree with every choice you've made for this character. Now, having said that, I have gotten it off my chest, and my job now is to take what you 've created and do my best to realize your vision. '——Published in Vanity Fair, Hamill's first impression of reading the TLJ script.

I don't understand at all, why did he hide there for so long? First of all, the Jedi will never give up. that's it. Luke really didn't give up. In the end, he did come out again as Rey wanted, but I think it's okay to be dormant for a year and a half, but why did I hide for 30 years? I accepted the backstory he gave me, but I also made up a plausible explanation for myself. ——Interviewed by mainland media Time.com, asking for answers about Luke's views on life on the deserted island.

In EP4, the mother star was slaughtered, and the master was killed; in EP5, his hand was chopped off by his newly recognized father, and all his teammates were captured; in EP6, even Leia gave up Vader, and Luke boarded Death Star 2 alone, not to kill Vader , but to save him.

In EP8, he became a stubborn old man who lost faith, did not face reality, left his comrades and sisters behind, and hid on the island for decades, waiting to die. ——The reason is simply that the pro-nephew has a tendency to blacken, and there is not even a little struggle and recovery process.

Stepping back 10,000 steps, there are [various reasons why many films were not made] that led Luke to become such a person. However, when the audience followed Rey's perspective and reunited with Luke 30 years later, waiting with bated breath for his reaction, What he waited for was - he threw his lightsaber, his father Anakin's, into the sea with a blank expression.

The last time Luke threw his lightsaber was when he was determined to redeem Vader. He said, "I'm a Jedi, like my father before me." After 30 years, he threw away his lightsaber: "It's time for the Jedi to the end."

Seeing this scene, San Shu was still as disgusting as eating shit. Even the initial belief and persistence have been trampled on like throwing garbage.

Seeing a certain interview RJ responded to this: "This is the best way I can think of, the only thing he could do at the time was to throw away this lightsaber." He was more determined that he did not respect this character at all, he just wanted to break the game quickly , packed up all the old things, and swayed on his empty and huge new blueprint.

Anti-personal heroism? Luke---was beaten and chopped off by the Lord at the end of EP5, and was beaten by the emperor at the end of ep6; Rey---EP7 was able to single out Kylo without training and just played with a lightsaber, and EP8 was as strong as Kylo. Um? EP4 rescues Leia, the death star & EP6 infiltrate Jabba's stronghold to save people - be captured - fight back, these are the results of teamwork and planning. Teammates from EP78? Um? ?

This concludes . If you know what will happen next, please look forward to the next work: . Anyway, I'm not looking forward to it. But I'm really looking forward to RJ's new trilogy EP10-12.

    The great thing about watching the premiere is that you'll be swept up in the enthusiasm of the people who love the movie, and you'll get a better sense of what the franchise is all about. The constant applause and cheers can drive your emotions. Maybe you think this group of fans is too "crazy", but at the same time you will feel awe in your heart: "Wow, this is the movie. Power!"

    Undeniably, it is one of the most courageous sequels in film history. Even if there are too many impurities to dissolve this respectable courage. As Star Wars Fanton awakened from his attachment to "Space Ethical Soap", as a movie fan, he marveled at the first time he felt the real unknown and demise in Star Wars. The degree of darkness and subversion is not unprecedented, but the atmosphere of reality released in the narrative circuitous and anti-traditional role arc is really unprecedented. Whether it can be broken and then stand, EP9 sees the difference.
