Deliberately reversed, leaving feelings empty. Compared with TFA, this work is not only a problem of lack of innovation - even the eternal theme of the two sides of the Force has become more and more blurred; it seems that the Force has become a child that everyone can have. Every family's toy - it's even more extravagant to think that you can see some political metaphors. However, the problem is far more than the theme and world view of Star Wars. TROS is a disaster from drama to audiovisual. People who criticize TLJ say that RJ's concept is the first and ignores the logic of the characters. Now, did 2DB and JJ have long brains when they wrote the script? With the adventurous plot development of video games and the capricious character motives of middle-2 youth, which audience would not be ashamed? There are also crazy lighting, which makes the eyes tired; entry-level camera, which makes it difficult to immerse; jump-style editing, which makes people confused. Oh, and the disorganized mise-en-scène - what scene did the two-line narrative in the final battle take? There is only the word "chaos", which is exactly what I want to show. The ground-to-air battle is only a glimpse; the only thing that seems to be a little bit is the fleet that has jumped over, but we have already seen it in "Ready Player One" Yeah - the atmosphere of the people's return is much better, and it also comes with a long shot that is invincible.
Choosing to let JJ return to the director's tube is a complete mistake.
But the problem is, no matter how big the problem is with TROS, when I see Leia returning to the Force, when I see the PPT electrocuting myself again, when I see Lu Zuotian finally raise the X-wing, when I see Tatooine's Double Sun, see Uncle Liam in the credits, heard the soundtrack normally played by Mr. JW, heard the sound of his breathing, heard the humming of the plasma magnetic field of the lightsaber, heard 3PO's "farewell chatter", heard I couldn't help but feel the inexplicable soreness in my nose at the inversion sentence in the whisper of the Force Heroes.
Disney's conservatism and constraints have ruined the sequel. The trilogy has no real deepening of Star Wars theory (RJ's TLJ was forced to give up halfway), and none of the villains can even match the villains of General Grievous, Darth Maul or Count Dooku, not even A hearty lightsaber battle. Carrying old characters back to the scene like a lantern, and then letting them die one by one (old characters without core business value are not even worthy of sacrifice); re-enacting the plot mode that everyone has seen before and can quickly guess; presented and watched What seems like a grand scene is actually nothing more than a bad street and no standard digital special effects.
Who would have thought that the best Star Wars work in the new millennium turned out to be RO? I personally think that if RJ can shoot TROS, at least the postquel will not be the virtue it is today.
Or, can RJ's own trilogy still look forward to it?
