Toss It

Rating: 2/10 (2 January 2018)

This entire film, how it treats the legacy, how much thought & effort the director and team put into this film....can all be summed up perfectly by the character allegedly Luke Skywalker, taking the iconic lightsaber from Rey and tossing it off the cliff over his shoulder. That scene summed up the entire film. Could say it summed up both TFA & TLJ. Only after watching the entire rest of this fubar did I understand that scene in the beginning. Maybe the writing/directing of that scene is more clever than I give credit for.
Aside from a couple of awesome scenes (from a cinematography standpoint)....this film was a complete waste of potential compared to what the trailer had us believed it would be (like some sort of jedi mind trick) and a pile of utter garbage.
This is not a Marvel Comic superhero film that can be done later, differently. This is Star Wars canon you're messing with. There's no going back and redoing it. Do these so-called directors understand this?
I will be reading spoilers before seeing Ep9 because I will not be spending another dime on this "trilogy" until I know for a fact they put in the effort for a decent script, a decent story line, decent world-building, decent character development, decent basic science for Yoda-sake, a decent movie period - worthy of the Star Wars name.
