How to ruin Star Wars? Sell the rights to Disney!
This movie is yet another massive disappointment following Force Awakens, which as much as I disliked it was a tad better than The Last Jedi. There is nothing left here of the Star Wars universe except for the non-Jedi's repeating the "May the force be with you", which they say with such conviction you can tell its just some lame tagline they implemented so the viewer wouldn't forget they were actually watching a Star Wars movie.
In 'Force Awakens' I actually enjoyed the prospect of there being yet another massively powerful Sith overlord, Snoke being introduced to the story as some massively shadowy figure, turns it out its just a malformed humanoid with force power who despite his incredible "power" missed the all-too important detail of a lightsaber being moved by the force right next to him, as if he had suddenly lost his force power or become blind to it, both being just as improbable and ludicrous to any actual Star Wars fan.
The whole thing about wanting the very concept of "Jedi" to die out seems a tad shortsighted as that won't take away the force which is supposedly a universal force (like "gravity") and the universe will still yield force sensitives over time, leaving them without guidance and knowledge seems like a sure way to have them seek guidance with those that still stand, the Sith.
Yoda finally learning to talk is beyond everything, why stick with continuity when you can screw everything around by changing its most memorable and enjoyable feature? Its like if Arnold Schwarzenegger suddenly started speaking with a perfect high class British accent for no apparent reason. This shows just how little concern Disney has for the Star Wars "world" and how ready they are to reshape it to their liking, using the fact that they can stick "Star Wars" on it to guarantee sales. They just don't care about the actual, pre-established Star Wars universe.
I don't get their constant need to keep going back to Maz as if she was the universe Wikipedia. Got a question? "Maz" it! (you know, instead of "Google it!"), for reasons unknown, she'll have all the answers. It just comes off as way too easy a solution to people's quandaries.
Furthermore I really don't like how Disney has even redefined the whole Jedi movement and what they were able to do, it seems like a completely new thing now than the normal "Jedi"-ism we're used to, now it involves levitating and meditating leading to out-of-body projections, of course, why didn't we see that coming?!
Luke's sacrifice seemed unnecessary at best, it just seemed to mirror Obiwan Kenobi's sacrifice from Episode IV. And it was quite unluckily planned as Carrie Fisher passed away, both twins will be missing in the next movie, unless of course they decide to go the CGI way again to resurrect past actors (which I hope they won't do as the renditions from Rogue One were extremely creepy and very unsettling to watch, couldn't they find any actor on a planet of 7 billion people that could do the parts? did they even look?)
I could go on dissecting this rather large heap of dung which is 'The Last Jedi' but the Disney Star Wars have already sapped enough of my time, time I'll never get back! I cry for the death of Star Wars as we knew it, why it had to be sold to Disney before completing the last trilogy I will never understand.
Poor movie and completely beside the point in case you're hoping for something related to Star Wars.
