[QUOTE="Bedrockgames, post: 8942051, member: 85555"] I agree the hermit thing was a bad move (the first trilogy worked largely because of the chemistry between the three leads, so having Han, Luke and Leia share screen time again would have been helpful. But I do think the choices Last Jedi made for Luke felt pretty inconsistent with the character, and the tone just didn’t work (that kind of quirkiness worked with Yoda but Luke is not Yoda, he just isn’t that kind of character). I did find Last Jedi entertaining, it was definitely very well shot and there was more craft behind it than than 7 or 9 (which visually both kind of felt like overwhelming light displays to me). I also found the romance between Rose Tico and Finn to have a lot of chemistry, so it was kind of dumb when they completely avandoned that romance and left Tico to hang out in the forest while 9 happened. She should have been with the main group in 9 or doing something individually with Finn for 9. But as the center of a three part trilogy it really didn’t do anything to bridge 7 to 9 or allow for a real story arc over the three films. If last Jedi had been the last film in the series I think it’s choices would have made more sense. I don’t blame the director though, I blame Disney for structuring the movies so that you effectively had two directors working against each other. [/QUOTE]
