Don't get my hopes up user

Love this guy. Knives Out was my movie of 2019

It would have been all Rose

She had a character not a soulless dummies JJ calls heroes

Unironically this. It’s still a shit movie and a terrible middle part that defuses everything set up by the first without setting anything up for the third, but at least it didn’t read like bad fan fiction by having yet another Death Star or bringing Palpatine back.

if only her whole character wasn't being cringe

Try watching it as a standalone film in the same universe, not as a part of a trilogy that was doomed to begin with. It's great.

round-headed man-baby with an eternal vocal fry

Imagine being a mystery-box-loving JJ Abrams fanboy like you are.

I'M SORRY GEORGE PLEASE COME BACK WE'RE SORRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

My dick.

BOOBIES

meh, it still has shit like Rose and Captain Feminist, and no coherent themes.
it was an interesting take on Luke, but it should've been an EU thing, fans couldn't accept it as THE canon destiny of the character.
TFA deserves blame for setting up a boring story with the First Order and Snoke, but Johnson still squandered the things that had potential (i.e. Finn and Poe) for no reason

Your Star Wars movie sucks

fat cunt

okay, this is based

Knives Out was a disappointment and doesn't deserve the good ratings

>shit like Rose and Captain Feminist
Rose was a better character than anyone in TFA or ROS. Whether you like it or not. And that you call a character "Captain Feminist" because she's female and has purple hair, even though she makes no feminist statements at all, shows me that you did not approach the film without your own biases.

>fans couldn't accept it as THE canon destiny of the character.
That's not a problem of the film, that's a problem of entitled fanboys. Never cater to those like Abrams did. That will just produce a piece of shit like ROS.

>Johnson still squandered the things that had potential (i.e. Finn and Poe)
Johnson actually gave personalities and character arcs to both Finn and Poe. What were their characters in episode 7? Clichés and plot devices. And episode 9? Screaming "Reeeeeey" and standing around being eyecandy.

Hey, I dislike episode 9 just as much as you do. But I don't let some irrational hatred for Disney blind me from seeing the merits episode 8 has.

Your movies suck. No matter how Yas Forums feels about Star Wars, TLJ was a failure and Knives Out was just predictable.

>Especially since the movies he made before and after are so much more competent.
t. hasn't seen Looper or Brothers Bloom

There isn't a single positive thing to talk about Episode 8 for barring it hit the final nail in the coffin for Disney Star Wars.

>using China as a benchmark for anything
Ah, yes, not grasping for straws at all here ...

>TLJ was a failure
Highest grossing film of the year, critical success, audience success with an A Cinemascore.

>has the biggest box office drop of all time for a major triple A production
>"yeah its totally fine"
Your TLJ film got raped by a fucking Jumanji reboot staring the Rock, Rian.

>Highest grossing film of the year
Ahh, like how Solo was the "highest grossing and BEST" sci-fi space hijacking/robbery movie too?

>Knives Out was my movie of 2019
Same here, strangely.
I still can't forgive him for killing Star Wars.
And yes, he is the main culprit.

>audience success
lmao

You don't need to invent any stupid categories for TLJ: It's the most successful film of 2017 in general, internationally.
So stop pretending that it isn't. The facts are working against you.

Don't use shit like Rotten Tomatoes that has been spamed to death by trolls. Use verified audience scores.

>Highest grossing film of the year
So? It also had the biggest drop in the opening week of any Star Wars film of all time, not even TROS surpassed it, took over a year to barely MATCH half of TFA's BD sales, and the worst reception of any Star Wars movie only roughly comparable to TROS. TLJ dropped over 70% after its first week. Correction: it dropped 76% it by the end of its first fucking week at the box office. You consider this financial success when it barely crawled to $1.3 billion and couldn't even break $1.5 like Disney wanted it too?

He was talking about Solo you mindless troglodyte
>invent any stupid categories for TLJ
No one needs to when morons like you are defending TLJ, dipshit. Audience score can be internalized with simple rationale that word of mouth which absolutely fucking KILLED TLJ's box office rental numbers and ticket sales is why its fan reviews were universally bad.

cunt

>It also had the biggest drop in the opening week of any Star Wars film of all time
Which means pretty much nothing. Total numbers matter here, not WHEN people went to see it.

>took over a year to barely MATCH half of TFA's BD sales
TFA got hyped like shit. TLJ still outsold anything else that year.

>couldn't even break $1.5 like Disney wanted it too
Sources on that claim? Are you a major shareholder of Disney or why do you know so much about their expectations?

>He was talking about Solo you mindless troglodyte
I wasn't. That's my point. When his best counter-argument against TLJ being a box office success is that Solo wasn't, then that's more than poor.

>making fun of one hack through another is fanboying now

Stop arguing Solo. No one else is, brainlet. And it has nothing to do with Johnson.

>Which means pretty much nothing.
Wrong, brainlet.
>Total numbers matter here
So failing to meet even the minimum expectation Disney's executives and their shareholders wanted is a success in your eyes? Or the fact things like production and marketing budgets also exist? Right on pal.
>TFA got hyped like shit
And TLJ has the benefit of TFA's success and momentum, retard. Why do you think sequels TYPICALLY gross more than their predecessors at the box office?
>Sources on that claim?
msn.com/en-us/movies/news/star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker-jolts-box-office-with-dollar175-million-opening/ar-BBYfugl
You have access to google, retard. You can literally look up how many times from 2017 before that Disney get dressing down and revising lifetime gross for TLJ.

Are you ESL? The entire tangent with Solo is that you were too fucking stupid to understand user was mocking you for trying to spin TLJ as a success in the same way Disney shills tried to do with damage control for Solo bombing. Fuck off, no one is buying your shit.

DIDF moron

>So failing to meet even the minimum expectation Disney's executives and their shareholders wanted is a success in your eyes?
Stop claiming shit you can't substantiate with sources.

>Or the fact things like production and marketing budgets also exist?
Yeah, but those didn't just eat up all the profit it made. You obviously don't know what you're talking about.

>And TLJ has the benefit of TFA's success and momentum, retard.
No, it didn't. 2 years time of nothing don't keep a momentum going.

>Why do you think sequels TYPICALLY gross more than their predecessors at the box office?
Now that is just wrong. Verifyably so. Look up how much TESB made relative to the original Star Wars, or how much AOTC made relative to TPM. You're full of shit.

>You have access to google, retard.
Great, but you apparently don't know how to use it. Because the link you gave me says nothing about expectations for TLJ and talks a lot about ROS' box office.

>The entire tangent with Solo is that you were too fucking stupid to understand user was mocking you for trying to spin TLJ as a success in the same way Disney shills tried to do with damage control for Solo bombing.
To which I answered that that isn't necessary for TLJ, because the numbers speak for themselves. You seem to be the one with serious reading comprehension issues.

IT

OHNONONONO EVEN HE KNOWS TLJ IS SHIT!
HAHAHAHAHA LOOK AT DIS DUD!
