The Last Jedi - Lets hope so!

Rating: 1/10 (19 December 2017)

To say this was a peice of crap is to insult all the great craps I have had in my life.
I have two points to make here. one about the film, and secondly to support the people complaining about the credibility of IMDB in its ratings. you only have to look at the reviews to know that something is awry with a HUGE majority of people giving this 1* to attempt to give people a true notion of this film.
Back to the film. Currently with a rating of 7*+ on IMDB, despite...well Ive gone down two pages and not seen a positive review or one that scored more than 4, I suspect shenanigans.
When Disney first got this franchise I thought, oh well, there goes Star Wars, but I ate my words, they did a great job previously.
But this, this is EXACTLY everything you thought Disney would do wrong with the franchise.
I can see the scriptwriters now at the beginning of this project. A bunch of 30 something marketing executives who simply have not lived a world where star wars is almost like a right of passage.
One sparks up, ok "Empire Strikes Back Was the greatest Star Wars film of all time, lets watch it and do that again!"
they sat and watched it, quite possibly their first star wars experience and then in fan fiction style took all the elements, juggled them around and applied it to new characters.
most of the poorly sequenced bits can be recognised as bits from the original films, we have a new Lando Calrisian character, who does what lando does. we have a Snow battle, but in salt...we have brother sister connections.., we have betrayal....... and then we have...."put the characters in a scenario where they run out of options and all hope is lost, and then as luck would have it, someone turns up to save the day"...repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat...and keep repeating as that is ALL you have for the film, change scenario, change the characters as it darts between expositions and has split the story into a weave of subplots each with their own duo. throw in some weird love triangle between Rey, Finn and the new "Token asian" IMO Rose.
so many things wrong its hard to avoid spoilers by avoiding specifics.
All goes well until "That Scene"...you'll know it when you see it, but I'll just say "superman scene", only those who have seen the film will get it. from there out its downhill all the way.
Oh, and if you didnt like JaJa Binks...get ready for merchandise overload. In classic disney fashion. They have toys galore going to poor out of this and I hope they have pre-ordered billions of them, and that the public see this film and its merchandise for what it really is..not worth your time.
To leave this film as Carrie Fishers legacy, well words cannot express how angry I am. And I think most of the world will share this sentiment. The producer, directors and writers should never be allowed near a studio again.
if disney had any sense of moral decency they should give this franchise away to anyone else, anyone in the world.
is there a single positive?
A couple of jokes, were well placed.
Some sentimental speeches in light of Carrie's passing were well placed.
Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), stole the show, wasnt keen on him in the last one, didnt think he suited the role. In this he really showed he could have been a great new Darth Vader. If I ever watch another one?
Wooden Oscar to Domhnall Gleeson..seriously dude! I know the lines were terrible, but it was almost like watching a school nativity where you played joseph.
I say from the bottom of my heart, there was so much wrong with this film, anything they got right was smothered. Please do not go to the cinema and pay cinema prices to see this garbage, even die hard fans, wait till its on TV. A message needs to be sent from the fans.
