The most unoriginal star wars

Rating: 5/10 (20 December 2019)

Spoilers ahead obviously!
The force awakens relied too much on the original trilogy but was a welcome return to an artistic philosophy that was not present in the prequels. The last jedi tried to subvert expectations to a maximum. While it was not a perfect movie, it was trying to move the story to uncharted territory and when it finished it left us at an extremely interesting place story wise. Snoke was gone and we needed some answers about his history, but overall you could not foresee where the story was going with the third one, the possibilities were endless! We were not tied by the old trilogy and we could move ahead! So finally what did we get? A lazy unoriginal sequel that was completely uninteresting. Rey being a palpatine is the most appalling choice anyone has made in this series!! you can be force sensitive without belonging to one of 3 families in this galaxy!! Palpatine is back and they don't even mention Darth plaguis or something! It's like the prequels don't even exist!! We have the ewoks partying but coruscant simply doesn't exist!! The capital FFS!! so darth vader was not the chosen one? his sacrifice did not bring balance it was all for nothing? And i'm supposed to buy that palpatine had a son and his granddaughter will save us ?? The prequels were far from perfect but at least they were trying to tell a new story and they are cannon, this is just a rehash it's like we're watching Halloween 7!! You can't just ignore the prequels and episode 8 and just keep remaking the originals over and over! And enough with the planet destroying technology already!! it was boring that we had a 2nd death star for ep 6 and now 40 years later we are talking about planet destroying spaceships? how stupid can it get!
