Star Wars 8 is the shame of the series. If Star Wars 7 is bad enough, then Star Wars 8 is bad enough, I never wanted to give a movie one star!
Star Wars 7 has a black male protagonist inserted into ZZZQ. His story line is not only simple, but also brainless. It feels like the screenwriter is trying to perfunctory Bai Zuo. But Bai Zuo may not care whether the movie is good or not, so the audience and fans are always the ones who get hurt in the end. This time it was even more exaggerated, and I didn’t know where to find an ugly Vietnamese actor. Seeing her face made me feel physically uncomfortable, and the key director kept giving her close-ups. So when it came to her scene, I only watched the subtitles. This movie viewing experience was unprecedented. . .
Doesn't it mean that if I judge people by their appearance, I can't learn the rumored Rogue One? The casting and storylines of Donnie Yen and Jiang Wen are quite suitable. Star Wars, as an American IP, represents American culture, but Rogue One doesn't make me feel very incompatible, which shows that the director and screenwriter are not incapable of doing it, and it is impossible or impossible. In the movie, she and Finn have no role at all. They went to the Imperial Army base for nothing, and there were a lot of useless plots. Good to die. In the end, she gave her mother a kiss, damn it, it was disgusting, I didn't even see that scene. . .
In fact, aside from ZZZQ, the plot is the flaw in Star Wars 8. Although Rey is a new character, after the growth of Star Wars 7, I think her image has been established, which is one of the few advantages of Star Wars 7. But when it came to Star Wars 8, Rey became very strange. At first, he chased Luke behind his ass and begged him to come out, and by the way, he met with Kay Lauren. The top commander of the First Order just took the lunch, and there is no foreshadowing in front of it. Forcing the reversal is insulting the IQ of the audience. Fortunately, in the end, the Millennium Falcon came back to save the Alliance Army and returned to the main line. He's obviously a protagonist, but he's doing supporting roles.
Carrie Fisher was dead when the film was released. I think it is the best choice for the director and screenwriter to arrange for the character to exit when Princess Leia's ship explodes, so that this character can be considered to break the fourth wall and walk out of the big screen, and the audience will feel at ease. But the director had her forcibly resurrected in a vacuum, and then used the force to fly back to the spaceship. Although Star Wars is a space opera, it is not critical of various scientific principles, and must conform to the principles of the real world. But in the setting of Star Wars, it is impossible for people to survive in outer space. This is a precedent, and I don't know what kind of shocking plot will be in the future.
And Luke, who is the star of Star Wars, has been successfully portrayed in the 456 trilogy: "Brave, gritty, tolerant...". Even in the face of Darth Vader, who had fallen into the dark side of the Force, he still did not give up the hope of saving him, and he still believed that Anakin Skywalker had not completely died out. In fact, he did, so at the end of EP6, the cremation of Darth Vader and the vision of the three Jedi Knights that appeared, let the character of Luke complete the sublimation. But what happened to Luke in Star Wars 8? Willful, cowardly, timid, escapist, just because of Kai Loren's dark side will kill him, even Rey didn't give up the current Kai Loren. He said that he wanted the Jedi Knights to perish, but in the end he hesitated when he really wanted to burn the Jedi books. In this way, Master Yoda has the opportunity to show his face and harvest a wave of feelings. The directors and screenwriters have to cut away from the characters of the past, and at the same time let them come out to consume the feelings of fans, and they should be considered as belonging. Luke used his VR footage to duel Kay Loren, didn't tell the rebels that he was trying to stall the time, and I was drunk. Finally, I forcibly took the lunch box, the same way as Obi-Wan exited. Disney, Disney, I'm really right to call you Darth Mickey, change Luke's character like this, and then force him to leave the stage, thinking that you can leave the Star Wars stage to newcomers?
The role of Kai Loren is a giant baby in the second grade, and there is no sense of oppression from the villain. Still claiming to be the heir to Darth Vader, isn't the lord in Rogue One 10,000 times stronger than you? The motivation at the beginning was inexplicable, and it was obvious that he could explain the misunderstanding between the two with Luke, after all, he was his uncle. As a result, he had to set fire to the Jedi Temple and wipe out the Jedi Knight Order. Is this something normal people can do? At this time, Kai Loren's identity was still a Jedi Knight, and it turned black in an instant, making no sense at all. My father is Han Solo, my mother is Princess Leia, my uncle is Luke Skywalker, and it is puzzling to have to rebel against this background. And Kai Loren is not a born evil person. It is also said in the movie that he has always been contradictory in his heart until now, so there are various signs that this villain is unqualified.
This is only a part of the problem, there are too many slots to write at all. After Disney took over Star Wars, it opened the New Year mode, one a year. High production is a good thing, but the premise is to polish the script well, and it is also a problem to frequently change directors. The DC next door is a lesson from the past. To sum up, Star Wars 8 is a shame for the series. It has destroyed all the characters and spirits created by Star Wars before. Disney wants to throw away the old guy and get the new one he chose. The result is that the two sides are unflattering, both old fans and new fans are not welcome.
