goose Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I enjoyed it, although there was a TON of fan service. Couple good surprises, and the final scene was nice. That one cameo shared with Kylo was probably worth $2 alone for me I cried there. I was already emotional and that scene let a couple tears loose.Yes but then I was WTF? Death means nothing in these films.NO SPOILERS, DAMMIT!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesweetscience Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I don't know when I'll see it (if I could avoid the in-laws, I might sneak out this weekend), but I'll probably try to avoid most reviews, essays, think-pieces, and hot takes if I can. I'm not going off the grid just so I don't accidentally learn something about Rey or Kylo, etc. I, too, hope it's just well done, as living up to the hype is pretty much impossible, given there will be rabid haters and fanatical believers no matter which way things go. Remember the last episode of Seinfeld? Widely panned as disappointing, it's a reminder that it's just damned hard to end things well, unless there's a natural end (like M.A.S.H., maybe) or there's been a plan/arc since the beginning. Looking forward to it. That last ep of Seinfeld was disappointing at the time, but watching it now, it couldn't be a better ending to the series. It's great.It's still awful. I don’t remember the ending, I only remember not liking it at the time. The best sitcom series finale I can think of was Cheers’ last episode. The very last scene closed it off well imhoNewhart had the best series finale of any sitcom ever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSHHEAD666 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 THIS MOVIE IS AN EPIC MASTERPIECE!!!!! It gets a 10 from me!!! I've seen every Star Wars film in the theater since I was a 9 year old boy in 1977. Saw it with my parents. Saw RISE OF SKYWALKER with my parents on Thursday night. Perfect closure for me! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceaudity11 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 I personally enjoyed it immensely. Very much a Star Wars film (unlike The Last Jedi). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhyta Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Thought it was well done overall. The beginning was a bit rough, dialogue stilted and I really don't like Kylo Ren. But it picked up and I did like the way it turned out. Last scene is spot on! Going to see it again since there was so much going on. It will be interesting to see what comes next, this story arc had reached its limits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a flaming banana and I love the Skywalker story.Don't give a shit what the masses think.You can't get a "Rise" out of me because it's "Everyday Glory."Warhol was right with the banana that was actually pink.Rotten Tomatoes can kiss my Rebel Scum Ass.The Fan Vote is what matters so empty your fuckingg bloated bladders."Snakes & Ladders," it's all the same.There is a critic hiding in every corner.Stuck inside the labyrinth of some Hotel Hobby Lobby Bar.I feel sorry for the fools of today who can't grasp the passion for a lead guitar.Fuckk it.Opinions are like stars. Everyone is one despite the Super Nova End.You haters must be Star Trek Fruits. Oh wow how sad.Go watch Baby Yoda become our next true friendWhile the next Sith Sperm ignites the immaculate reception inside theOakland Raider fad........ Viva Las Vegas Mother Fukkkkkkers!
