[quote=Anonymous]I thought it was a well made movie, but I didn't like it.

I thought there were simply too many threads that were left dangling after episode 7 that were either brushed aside or got ignored entirely.  Rian Johnson said that there was no overarching story that he had to work with and it showed. Bad decision on the part of Lucasfilm IMO.

I agree with others that a lot of the humor seemed out of place.

Did not like the set up of sexual tension between Rey and Kylo Ren. Seems awfully out of place in this cultural moment especially.

I liked the characters of Rose and Finn but their whole plotline ended up being completely meaningless. You could have cut the whole thing out of the movie and it wouldn't have changed anything.

But more than anything, I did not like what they did with Luke. So much of his behavior was out of character. The guy who saved his father, one of the most evil people in the galaxy, by throwing away his light saber wouldn't consider killing his nephew, for one. And the scene where he was making fun of Rey when she "reached out" for the Force seemed really out of place too. Luke could be sarcastic but he was never mean. He treated the Ewoks with more dignity, FFS. And if his twin, the person he loved most in the world, said she was in trouble and needed his help, I cannot believe he would just be like, "Nah, gotta go milk a sea monster, bye". To me-- that's just unforgivable. If I was Leia at the end with like, 10 people left, and Luke walks in, I would've been like GTFO! I guess he saved the half dozen people left at the end, but a little late there, buddy. I was really not okay with what they did with his character.
