So the Big Event, on December the 15th this year, Most of us are going to see a movie. Specifically Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi.
So I have a question. Will we get a Poorly Written mess. with unrelatable characters and A Story that turns out bad because it focuses less on trying to be it's own film and more on trying to be it's predecessors? A story that only gets praise for not being the Prequel Trilogy?
Or will we get a film that gives us a properly written story, characters that I can root for, No wasting of time with Rathtar sequences that have nothing to do with the plot. Maybe Daisy Ridley can learn how to act? Maybe Kylo Ren's Sudden change from Slaughtering villagers to "I'm Being Torn Apart. I want to be free of this Pain" will actually make some sense?
Time will tell.

fuk I feel old
Anyhow, I personally don't have very high hopes for SW8. I believe they'll keep doing more or less the same thing they did with SW7: not very well-written, not very compelling, shamelessly vampirizing the OT. An entertaining movie on its own, although full of holes, but also an unimpressive and frustrating SW.
Mark Hamill has stated he didn't like how Luke turned out in SW8, and I actually trust the guy's judgment on his own character more than the writers'. But time will tell I guess; maybe we'll have some good surprises.
