Let go of Star Wars

Rating: 3/10 (18 December 2017)

The thing is, Disney doesn't know what to do with Star Wars, except push feminist agenda. One by one, all men (especially old ones) of power die out, in meaningless and silly ways, while women prevail. Men do silly, immature, irresponsible things, while women save them, scold them, do great and mature things, sacrifice for the greater good, etc.
Otherwise, it's a Rian Johnson movie. Interesting, visually appealing, with things that "break the genre", but full of holes, inconsistencies and, at long last, a shallow and "meh" story.
Let me bring out a few things other's haven't. First, let's think about Snoke's comments about Kylo and Rey:

If Snoke is correct that Kylo's raise in the Dark will bring rise to his counterpart in the Light, then who is Snoke's counterpart? It actually can't be Luke, he has "excluded" himself from the Force...
why does he want to kill Luke? This will just bring about a rise of someone else to replace Luke? Isn't keeping Luke "out of the picture" actually the _perfect_ way to rule the Galaxy?

The whole "Luke rationale"... the idea is OK - he's hiding, has given up, then at the last moment changes his mind and sacrifices himself. But:

if that's the case, why did he leave the map behind?
he had a moment of weakness. Don't all men? OK, go, get drunk, go to a desert island (planet), gather your thoughts, talk to the wise ones (Yoda et al). Then, after a few years, figure it out and do something. Don't let your best friend and only sister out to dry. You don't have to train new Jedi, you're a bad teacher. But, go help out. IOW, it had to be something, much, much deeper to have such an effect
Luke wants Jedi to end because they thought they "own the Force". But, they didn't and he should have learnt that from the books and Yoda/Kenobi (Anakin/Qui-Gon). Also 'they are a failure'. So, they were defeated by Palpatine, after a thousand generations maintaining peace across the Galaxy. You call _that_ a failure? What's a success then? 10 thousands generations?
And, at long last, why don't Kenobi or Anakin appear to Luke, but only Yoda? Anakin knows a lot about the Dark Side and Kenobi is the only Jedi "with a perfect morale compass".
For the last tid-bit about the feminist agenda: Yoda says that Rey has all she needs for success in her (and Luke thought her failure). Well, other Jedi had it, they were trained in how to _use_ it, not how to _get_ it. So, a woman is the only Jedi in a thousand generations, that doesn't need _any_ training. All other spent years and years of rigorous training. But, no, not Rey. She is perfect "just as she is".

I don't want to explore more, because in Rian Johnson's films, you quickly see that it's a futile effort.
This film is about "letting go of the past". Well, it succeeds. After this movie, Star Wars is the past and we need to learn to let it go.
