Had that spoiled for me on reddit by another kind gentleman. A majority of my friends had the movie spoiled by dillweeds out for lulz :\Epignosis wrote:Spoiler: show

Yeah, but it's no fun if I'm the only one who's ready (which is, like, barely, I've seen it two hours ago). How come Dharma doesn't have one full page already written here?!Golden wrote:I think there is no reason to avoid discussion provided it is in spoiler tags.Ricochet wrote:Ok I've seen it, when we talking about it?

Well, I've seen it and I'm ready to engage. Plus we are likely to have wildly different views since I think what we are looking for in a movie seems to be something quite different.Ricochet wrote:Yeah, but it's no fun if I'm the only one who's ready (which is, like, barely, I've seen it two hours ago).

Because you liked TLJ or because you didn't?DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2018 9:50 pm After TLJ I have to say I dislike TFA significantly more.
I loved The Last Jedi. TFA was "A Star Wars" movie. TLJ was a great movie that was in the Star Wars universe. I think Last Jedi will hold up more, and stands on its own more, and TFA is, as time goes on for me anyway, more of a "Hey remember how cool THIS was from the Star War"speedchuck wrote: ↑Mon Jan 08, 2018 10:52 amBecause you liked TLJ or because you didn't?DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2018 9:50 pm After TLJ I have to say I dislike TFA significantly more.
Because I could see it either way.
Good. I respect that opinion. I even agree with it. I would have disagreed with you otherwise.DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Mon Jan 08, 2018 1:00 pmI loved The Last Jedi. TFA was "A Star Wars" movie.

I agree to certain extent. I prefer everything Johnson attempted to everything Abrams yielded to, in the category of "what/how a new Star Wars movie should normally be". Not that it's a difficult comparison, given that even the Rebels being chased by a giant space wiener-dog would have been preferable to TFA. I think the word "subversive" got thrown in a lot, but as a Star Wars IDGAF-er, I don't mind the bits that TLJ closed the chapter on or refused to expand upon, toy further with or give into out of sheer fan service.DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Mon Jan 08, 2018 1:00 pmI loved The Last Jedi.

This is exactly what I said when describing the movie. Glad to see I'm not alone.
