I'll be honest, I didn't see Last Jedi. I did go to everything up through Force Awakens. I went with it in the theater but the eyerolling over the ridiculous feats of Rey got to be a bit too much. She's the best pilot but she's never flown. She's the strongest jedi but she's never heard of the force. Etc. It was too over the top for me.

I just didn't care that much about a character that they obviously made flawless and invulnerable. That's the same reason I switched from Superman comics to Batman comics when I was a kid.

“The Phantom Menace is Citizen Kane compared to The Last Jedi”


Because in TPM, they let masculine heroes play the roles of masculine heroes.
