[Architect of Avalon]

Bad writing.

Bad directing.

Bad movie.

There is A New Hope and maybe Empire Strikes Back.

After that nothing but scat.

[Carriage Hill]

I never wasted my time or a dime on any of that crappola.

Yeah. The fact that The Last Jedi scored 91% on Rotten Tomatoes with professional (i.e., leftist) film critics, but only 47% with audiences, should have been a big clue that the shark has jumped for Star Wars.

When Rian Johnson had Luke Skywalker non-chalantly toss his light sabre over his shoulder into the ocean in the very first scene is when I had realized that Johnson was giving a big FU to the franchise. Small wonder that Mark Hamill had griped about the film to the point Disney had to muzzle him.

What amazes me is that Disney let Rian Johnson wreck the franchise so thoroughly that there is nothing left going forward, where Kylo and General Hux are so laughable as antagonists that it leaves JJ Abrams screwed for the third film.

The Solo movie, on the other hand, was quite good.
