FOR THE LOVE OF YODA....LET THE OLD FILMS GO!!!

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2019)

Have a read of all the 1-2 star reviews and think about the head space of these people. Its very clear, these people are still stuck in 1977 when they were 5 years old, and had a different view to life and films and simply cannot embrace change.
So what is this mentality? Well its normally a 46 year old man wearing a Yoda t-shirt saysing- 'I demand you to release the new films but not change anything, including the old actors, but do it in a way which makes them new, but non threatening to our memories when we were 5 years old!!!' Give me strength....
Complaining about the 'Disneying' the Rise of Skywalker and the latest trilogy for being multi-cultural and selling fluffy merchandise is the most mentally challenged view on so many levels.
Do you not remember the strong female character and numerous multicultural characters from the original films?!! Do you not remember the famous little green puppet who sounded like Fozzy Bear?!! Or the 500 mini bears who helped defeat the empire with rocks and sling shots?!!
So The Rise of Skywalker is not George Lucas vision of star wars?! Thank Holy (ahem) Force for that.... Lets not forget George Lucas single handedly ruined star wars for all of us with The Phant.... (I can't even finish the sentence), The Clon....(nope its not happening I'm wretching) and Revenge of the Si (ok got a bit further with that one, but still no good). These films were just down right AWFUL.
And you dare say the latest trilogy has 'Disneyfied' the George Lucas vision!! Watch JaJa Binks juggling an explosive in Phantom Menace and you will see the full depth of a slapstick 'Disneyeque' cartoon with shocking CGI, terrible acting, zero chemistry and a complete mish mash of a story from start to finish.
By complete co-incidence I am a 46 year old man and I do also have a Yoda T-shirt, but I came out of The Rise of Skywalker with the same feeling I had when I came out from the original Trilogy, which was a pounding heart, and tears in my eyes through sheer excitement and bliss.
The Rise of Skywalker left me emotionally overwhelmed to the point of speechless, the sheer darkness and power of the film, the superb casting of the new characters for Rei, Fin, Po, Kylo, along with the link to old in Lei, Han, Lando, Luke, Chewwy, the unbelievable artistic scenes of Knights of Ren, the scenery, the simple uncomplicated plot which brought back good against evil (and not a Brexit Style trade federation mish mash which encompassed the prequel trilogy).
Why are people saying the Last Jedi plot was in effect pointless? Didn't the Death Star get destroyed in 'A New Hope' then just get rebuilt again, (then blown up again)....Was 'A New Hope' Pointless???!!!
FOR THE LOVE OF YODA MOVE ON FROM THE OLD FILMS!!!!!!
The Rise Of Skywalker is a work of art, genius in every way and allows this die hard Star Wars fan to finally say goodbye to the old era through a wave of emotion and perfectly timed throw back scenes showing marks of respect to..... X-wings, the Falcon, The Death Star, the Sith, the Jedi, the Force....all the characters and all that is Star Wars....and Ewoks? Yes... even though I still cringe at them...
Thank you Disney and thank you J.J. Abrams for helping me to finally let go of the past with this awesome film.
Now, is there any chance you can redo ALL the Ewok scenes from Return of the Jedi?
