It was too formulaic — the entire movie felt overly-scripted, as if the director was following some Star Wars recipe card. Step 1: Start with Spaceships chasing each other.

Paralelamente, o Primeiro Império de Kylo Ren se reorganiza para enfrentar a Aliança mundo de Star Wars, nessa mitologia criada por George Lucas, as coisas sempre foram bastante dicotômicas, vide a centralidade da luta entre a luz e o lado negro da Força. Portanto, é, antes de tudo, passível de celebração a abordagem do cineasta Rian Johnson, também autor do roteiro de Star Wars Os Últimos Jedi, justamente porque a partir deste capítulo os arranjos tendem a não ser mais como antes, pois é instaurada uma bem-vinda área cinzenta. Tal guinada alinha uma das franquias mais importantes do cinema aos novos tempos, dando sequência ao trabalho bem feito por J. J. Abrams e companhia em Star Wars O Despertar da Força 2015, ampliando a sensação de sincronia com as demandas do agora. Aliás, outro indício disso é a pluralidade étnica presente entre os pilotos da Resistência que se lançam num ataque praticamente suicida para evitar a aniquilação pela nefasta Primeira Ordem, isso no começo do filme. É uma cena de ação que carrega dramaticidade, um desespero cenário é desolador. A galáxia está praticamente tomada pela horda de Snoke Andy Serkis. Os rebeldes comandados pela General Leia Organa Carrie Fisher estão irremediavelmente encurralados, a mercê do poderio encabeçado no campo de batalha pelo General Hux Domhnall Gleeson e pela figura cada vez mais imponente e poderosa de Kylo Ren Adam Driver. Star Wars Os Últimos Jedi, se desenvolve, na maior parte do tempo, em diversas frentes. Fazendo alusão a um expediente clássico da franquia, há uma missão de invasão, de sucesso improvável. O realizador, porém, consegue ressaltar a bravura de quem arrisca a própria vida em função do ideal. Finn John Boyega ganha uma parceria carismática e tão corajosa quanto ele. Rose Kelly Marie Tran tem seus motivos para ir à luta e encontra no ex-stormtrooper um companheiro valoroso, com quem sua personalidade casa bem. Embora represente o elo frágil da narrativa, o encargo deles é imprescindível para o êxito de planeta sagrado dos Jedi, Rey Daisy Ridley tenta extrair do lendário Luke Skywalker Mark Hamill os ensinamentos acerca da Força, querendo aprender os passos para se tornar uma guerreira apta a tentar obliterar o lado sombrio representado pelo colérico filho do falecido Han Solo. Aliás, Rian Johnson investe numa ligação curiosa entre o líder da ordem de Ren e a novata em busca de orientação. É inteligente a maneira como o filme, em numerosos momentos, nos leva a acreditar na proximidade da verdade acerca da origem de Rey, num jogo cujo verdadeiro propósito é, exatamente, estabelecer uma ponte entre a luz e a escuridão, criando um espaço intermediário, ideal para a instituição de uma densidade psicológica e emocional pouco vista na Saga Star Wars. Luke também faz parte dessa ciranda, deixando expostas as suas fraquezas, depondo a si próprio do pedestal que a História da galáxia reservou a ele. Star Wars Os Últimos Jedi atinge um fino equilíbrio entre ação e drama, algo raro em meio à tragédia anunciada, com a Resistência acossada, Rian Johnson abre espaço para brechas cômicas, bem assentadas no todo. Além disso, a reverência ao legado de Star Wars está presente em vários instantes, como no reaparecimento emblemático de alguém importante – atentem para a forma assumida por esse personagem tão querido – e alusões menores a episódios marcantes de filmes anteriores. Perguntas formuladas desde Star Wars Episódio IV – Uma Nova Esperança 1977 são finalmente respondidas, reviravoltas impressionantes criam a possibilidade de novos e empolgantes cenários, além da haver despedidas de gente cara aos fãs da cinessérie. Star Wars Os Últimos Jedi é, em certa medida, um filme de atores, haja vista a coesão do elenco. Mas, Daisy Ridley e Adam Driver sobressaem, provando que podem, muito bem, assumir a dianteira da Saga Star Wars, sem prejuízos, pelo contrário, apontando ao novo, mas reverenciando as duas abas seguintes alteram o conteúdo PostsJornalista, crítico de cinema e membro da ABRACCINE Associação Brasileira de Críticos de Cinema,.

Editor do Papo de crítica The Last Jedi is action-packed, thrilling, surprisingly funny, has several unpredictable twists and contains character moments that, in time, will overshadow all that action and adventure. It’s also a cathartic experience for original Star Wars fans like myself. I can’t wait to see it several more times. And I have not said that about a Star Wars movie in a long time… a long time. But, it’s difficult to review The Last Jedi as simply a film because it means so much more to so many. Because as fans we are all veterans of one war. Star Wars. And like the horrors of actual war in the real world, our feelings about it are complicated. Which is why it doesn’t surprise me that each release of a new Star Wars movie leaves audiences and critics so divided. Star Wars Episode VIII The Last Jedi is no different. Factions form into “loved it” or “hated it” or “I can’t believe you loved it, you must be an idiot/SJW/not a true fan/on Disney’s payroll”, etc… When it comes to arguing about Star Wars, fans or, more accurately, “people on the internet” really let the hate flow through them. And this fandom civil war that has broken out over The Last Jedi is particularly brutal. Or perhaps the negative voices are just a bit louder. But opinions in this arena are often irrelevant as the barometer by which modern success at the movies is measured is Republic credits. But let’s cast aside box office for a moment, your reaction to Star Wars is your own and probably very personal. I’m no different. “The release of a Star Wars film is an event. And for hardcore fans, they are akin to new chapters of the Bible being delivered from on high…” It’s also important to recognize that because Star Wars is one of those increasingly rare movie franchises that must have some appeal to everyone, there is a lot of fandom baggage that gets dragged into each new movie. One can hardly evaluate The Last Jedi like any other film. The release of a Star Wars film is an event. And for hardcore fans, they are akin to new chapters of the Bible being delivered from on high. Which gives them greater significance because what happens in this imaginary universe is canon and forever affects characters that have been beloved for decades. Episode VIII is particularly important as it heralds the return of Luke Skywalker. Make fun of him all you want for his initial whininess on Tatooine, Luke’s journey offered the most identifiable and human reaction to the vast strangeness of this new universe. Luke has changed as much as the audience, and in Last Jedi he is a grumpy Jedi, perhaps better known as “Old Man Luke.” In order to really talk about The Last Jedi, discussion of key story points and spoilers is necessary, so here’s your one warning. The story covers familiar territory–the Rebels, I mean, Resistance is on the run from the Empire, I mean, First Order. A new apprentice strong in the Force seeks out a master for her Jedi training and guidance and the secret of her lineage. Space battles, political intrigue, characters in peril, pure evil, lightsaber fights, choosing the path of light or dark, plus something cute thrown in as a distraction. Oh, and hilarity ensues, perhaps more than some would like. But I really enjoyed the humor because it is an important part of the mix of elements that make a Star Wars film work. The Light The things that succeeded, worked incredibly well. Equally, the things that did not hit the mark, failed badly but did not ruin the film overall. The opening battle scene is a whirlwind of starship mayhem — we’ve never seen an X-Wing in a battle quite like that. And it was refreshing to care about a side character with little screen time who makes the ultimate sacrifice. This was not just a collection of cool starship shots jumbled together to form an action sequence, the goal for the battle is made clear with the Resistance attack on a fearsome Dreadnaught ship. While all of this is happening, the human element is never forgotten — there are people aboard those ships and consequences for our characters in the Resistance on the run. Rey’s arrival and subsequent training on Ahch-To has just the right amount of dire seriousness and situational humor. There are even moments here where Last Jedi feels like an art film, in particular, Rey’s encounter in the cave. Old man Luke is like a reinvention of the character as we knew him in the original trilogy. Mark Hamill has outdone himself in his best acting as Luke Skywalker. Luke may be a legend in the Star Wars universe, but his human side really comes out during these scenes. We see the pain and regret in that face as he realizes his family may have, yet again, thrown the galaxy in turmoil. Kylo Ren and Rey’s odd and still unexplained relationship is the most interesting part of Last Jedi. Initially that bond forms over a kind of Jedi Snapchat as the two connect over some Force-driven galactic version of the internet of the mind. At one point, the composition even makes it appear they are chatting over a computer. Women might identify Kylo as some creeper who reaches out over Facebook. Kylo is seen shirtless in one exchange and Rey even asks him to put something on. Those scenes do really feel like some predatory male going after a woman on social media. And even after Kylo and Rey join forces to battle Snoke’s red-armored minons who I’m sure have a name, but whatever Kylo then tries to “neg” Rey by revealing that her parents were “nobodies.” He’s actually negging her! I’m pretty sure that Johnson is commenting on creepy and manipulative men who take advantage of women online, or I could be reading too much into it. I’ll let the internet argue over that one. And then there is Snoke, who somehow drew so much speculation as the new big baddie in the sequel trilogy. After such a big build up, Snoke is cut down like nothing. I honestly believe that Snoke’s origins aren’t all that interesting and his character is just a distraction from the more important issues. But, just for fun, I am going to theorize that the Snoke that was killed in Last Jedi was a clone. That’s right, Clone Snoke! At least that’s the theory I plan to spread on the internet so that it can be debated for the next two years. And if you are reading this JJ, feel free to use that idea. Also, post with the hashtag CloneSnoke. “When you remember what you love most about Star Wars, it’s probably not the action, the most memorable parts are character moments…” When you remember what you love most about Star Wars, it’s probably not the action, the most memorable parts are character moments. And there are so many to discuss, from Leia saving herself with the Force, the Snoke betrayal just as Snoke talking about how he can never be betrayed, the Kylo-Rey teaming up, old man Luke’s daily routine, the Chuck Norris-looking Luke taking on the First Order alone and on and on. Additionally, the dialog seems intended to comment on the film as we are seeing it, as if writer/director Rian Johnson wants to clue the audience in one what he’s really trying to say. Lines such as “Let the past die,” or “This is not going to go the way you think.” But what worked best of all was the tone. This felt like a Star Wars movie in every way and brought me back to my childhood. Tone is really the most important contribution of the director and Rian Johnson nails it in every sense. And especially with regard to the humor. Even the controversial Porgs provide just enough funny and cute moments. Johnson went so far as to acknowledge the inevitable hate for anything cute by including a scene of a freshly cooked “Cornish Porg” about to be eaten by Chewbacca as the eyes of gaggle of Porgs look on heartbroken, it’s brilliantly hilarious. The Dark Okay, not exactly dark, but here’s what didn’t quite work for me, first and foremost, the running time. This film did not need to be 152 minutes and should have been closer to the 120 minute standard established by the earlier films. I hope one day we’ll see a fan cut that is actually closer to two hours. The scenes on Canto Bight seemed like an unnecessary divert for Rose a new character I actually really like and Finn. This “casino planet” was like a scene right out of a low-budget Sy-Fy channel movie shot in Vancouver. It felt too familiar and earthbound to be a scene in an other-worldly scene in a Star Wars movie. The Rose/Finn alien horse race through the casino that ruined the galactic one-percenters good time and did some property damage was just ridiculous and should have been cut. Rose and Finn flopping around on the alien horse just looked like a bad theme park ride. I fully expect this chase sequence to be on Star Tours or at Disney’s Star Wars Land. Finn’s storyline overall is the weakest, though his journey actually takes an interesting turn in the final battle on Crait. Finn finally learns that becoming a hero requires acts of self-sacrifice. And surprisingly, he finally learned to pilot a ship because if I recall in The Force Awakens which took place maybe a few days before Last Jedi, Finn needed a pilot to flee the First Order and escape his life as a Stormtrooper. So that was fast. Benicio Del Toro’s character DJ has the most uninspired “Star Wars” name in the Star Wars galaxy. DJ. And Benicio’s acting choice to add a stammer was just cringe-inducing. I would not miss that character if he were cut entirely. The Resistance rag-tag fleet being chased by the First Order felt a little Battlestar Galactic-ish, which would have been fine had this not been a thread through the entire film. The conflicts on those Resistance ships felt a little forced and seemed to be made to fill up screen time. I also was annoyed at the use of the terms “big a*s” and “Godspeed.” Language is important in a Star Wars film and shouldn’t sound too earthy. It really doesn’t matter if we know what a nerf herder is, because we understand what it means in context. Isn’t “God” in the Star Wars Universe the Force? Or, as Threepio put it, the Maker. “Half the fun of seeing a new Star Wars movie is arguing and debating every single minute detail…” After pointing out all these weaknesses, it might appear that I like The Last Jedi much less. Far from it. Half the fun of seeing a new Star Wars movie is arguing and debating every single minute detail. For me, this kind of nitpicking is actually enjoyable. In our fractured culture, making something intended to appeal to everyone seems difficult enough these days, and I realize that things that didn’t work for me, might have worked for you. The best part is that it gives each of us a little something to nitpick! The Porgs are kind of a mixed bag because as they are used in the film, they kind of work. And we actually see one skewered over a hot fire to the horror of Porg onlookers. Johnson understands that a cute element is necessary in Star Wars, but it works best when the screen time for those cute things is kept at a minimum. The Porgs appear just enough not to be an irritant, like, say, Jar Jar. That floppy-eared and clumsy Gungan had so much screen time in The Phantom Menace that Jar Jar ruined the story by becoming too much of a focus. The Hope This is a more inclusive Star Wars because that’s what our world is. So diversity with Star Wars characters should be expected or better, not even noticed at all, because we live in a diverse culture with all types of people. But frankly, it took long enough because Star Trek has been doing that since 1966. We’ve come a long way since an all white male fighter squadron and characters named “Porkins,” who was probably given that name because of his portly figure. Which is kind of lazy and dumb, but I will still love Porkins. Audiences may not have been expecting a Star Wars movie that also comments on animal cruelty, war profiteering, eating meat, and predatory behavior by men toward women online. George Lucas has been quoted many times that the original Star Wars trilogy was his commentary on the Viet Nam War. The prequel trilogy is about how a democracy can decay and slowly become a dictatorship. So the Star Wars films have had messages all along, you just might not have noticed them. I do find it surprising that The Last Jedi comments directly on selling weapons to both sides of the war. “We’ve come a long way since an all white male fighter squadron and characters named Porkins’…” In spite of the fact that I enjoyed it so much, there’s a lot that what I wish was different. Chatting with friends after an opening night screening, we all thought aloud about things that could improve The Last Jedi. Benicio Del Toro’s character should have been Lando Calrissian. It’s pretty easy to imagine Lando hanging around a casino planet and running hacker scams to make a few bucks. And there’s no mention at all of Lando in this sequel trilogy, so either he’s dead or he’s just not considered a close friend anymore. It should have been Leia that made the ultimate sacrifice on the remaining star cruiser that saved the Resistance by going into hyperspace. It was an admirable end to Laura Dern’s Admiral Holdo character, but it seemed more like something Leia would have done. It was also suggested that Last Jedi could have ended on a cliffhanger with Luke standing to face the First Order alone and then… credits. Sure, we would’ve been upset, but the anticipation for the next film would have been off the charts. It’s also worth noting that this Star Wars film broke the storytelling format set by George Lucas more than any other movie. The Last Jedi has the fewest “wipes” from one scene to the next than any other Star Wars movie. Flashbacks are used to tell the story of Ben Solo’s motivation for his turn to the Dark Side. Flashbacks as a storytelling device have never been used in a Star Wars film unless you count “Force visions.” Even the line, “I’ve got a bad feeling about this,” is nowhere to be found though Rian Johnson says that BB-8 is the one who says it at the beginning, which is kind of a cop out. There is a strange visual joke that references the very first Star Wars parody film, Hardware Wars. It’s nice to see such creative thinking applied to Star Wars, because when you rigidly stick to a format, you get what you expect. Or you retread old territory as was done with The Force Awakens. It’s time for fandom in-fighting to end. “You’re saying the hero who blew up the Death Star would choose to run away to a swamp instead of fight the Empire? And when he finally shows up, he just cries and loses a hand? Irvin Kershner has ruined Star Wars!” – Rotten Tomato user ratings, 1980 I’m sure many remember the above quote when Empire first came out. Okay, truth be told, that’s a fake quote, but it accurately reflected the sentiment among my friends and others when we discussed the first Star Wars sequel at length. Seriously, I remember when The Empire Strikes Back first came out. The audience gasped, booed and was angry that the film ended on a cliffhanger. And back then, Star Wars movies were a long three year wait. There was no internet to complain about it, just perhaps the letters column in magazines like Starlog. Conventions were just starting to crop up but they mostly just sold comics. And there was no fan community to seek out support or to debate how you felt. Episode V initially received mixed reviews, good and bad. It was only years later, after the original trilogy was complete that a revisionist history hailed Empire as the best of the three holy scriptures, I mean, movies. Audiences were mad when Empire debuted because it was so different than Star Wars and completely not what they were expecting… which seems to be very similar to what people are saying about The Last Jedi. To be clear, I’m saying Last Jedi is comparable to Empire only in that both received mixed reaction upon their original release. “…the most I’ve applauded, the loudest I’ve laughed and the hardest I’ve cheered for a Star Wars film since 1983.” I will end by saying this is the most I’ve applauded, the loudest I’ve laughed and the hardest I’ve cheered for a Star Wars film since 1983. I might’ve cried a few times too. Bravo. What Rian Johnson and company have delivered is a film that took risks, it was unexpected and special. After two viewings of The Last Jedi, I’m struck with how profoundly I was affected. I’m high. I’m high and I haven’t been this high since I was 12. High on Star Wars. I honestly haven’t loved, truly loved a Star Wars movie this much since I was a kid. And because the film ended with Luke Skywalker fading away as the sun set, something about this feels final. There’s a sense of closure. Which makes The Last Jedi an incredibly cathartic experience. For me, Star Wars is over. I’m finished and it’s done. Sure, I’ll see each new movie as it comes out, but I am oddly satisfied because this felt like the conclusion of the Star Wars I grew up with and I’m happy about that. At peace actually. It’s time for my fandom to end. Star Wars has finally grown up and maybe we all can too. It’s time for that little boy with the broomstick at the end to pick up a lightsaber. I’m pretty sure he could take on the whole Empire. Star Wars The Last Jedi 2017 Directed by Rian Johnson. Written by Rian Johnson. Starring Daisey Ridley, John Boyega, Adam Driver, Carrie Fisher, Oscar Isaac, Laura Dern, Kelly Marie Tran and Domhnall Gleeson 9 out of 10 Star Wars has now occupied a galaxy of its own in the zeitgeist for 40 years and shows no signs of disappearing anytime soon; to the contrary, each new year brings a new Star Wars film of one kind or another, so using the word “last” in connection with anything to do with the series seems a bit disingenuous. Rather, this latest, and longest, franchise entry has the decided feel of a passing-of-the-torch from one set of characters, and actors, to the next. Loaded with action and satisfying in the ways its loyal audience wants it to be, writer-director Rian Johnson’s plunge into George Lucas’ universe is generally pleasing even as it sometimes strains to find useful and/or interesting things for some of its characters to do. Commercially, Disney is counting on another haul soaring past a billion dollars in worldwide theatrical box office alone. As indicated by the dramatic finale of Star Wars The Force Awakens two Christmases ago, the follow-up is anchored by the attempt by Daisy Ridley’s Rey to persuade Mark Hamill’s Luke Skywalker to indoctrinate her in the ways of the Jedi. As a warm-up, however, the first quarter-hour is mostly devoted to the evil First Order’s outer space attack on the Resistance, led by General Hux, who’s goofily played by Domhnall Gleeson as if he were acting in a Monty Pythonesque parody. Still, the resurgent fascists decimate the fleet and put the good guys on their heels. The Bottom Line Far from the last or the least. Release date Dec 15, 2017 Back on terra firma or, to be specific, the thrusting oceanic mountain hideaway so splendidly represented by Skellig Michael, Rey finds Luke in a singularly depressive state, ready to call it a day where Jedi and the force are concerned. For him, it’s all over, and Rey has her work cut out for her getting Luke to change his mind. There are generational differences of opinion on the dark side as well. When Kylo Ren Adam Driver, the turncoat son of Leia and the late Han Solo, shows up in a Darth Vader outfit, Supreme Leader Snoke a deliciously heinous Andy Serkis barks, “Take that ridiculous thing off!” This is the sort of mild all-in-the-family irreverence that the fan culture eats up and Johnson — who here becomes the first person to single-handedly write and direct a Star Wars feature since George Lucas did the honors on the original and two of the “prequels” — injects a good deal of this sort of elbow-jabbing humor into the proceedings. Hardcore series devotees will decide to what extent the new film functions in an equivalent way to how The Empire Strikes Back did in the initial trilogy in 1980. But what it definitely does is stir the pot with ambivalence on both sides of the good-and-evil equation Just as Luke is ready to pack it in as far as perpetuating the Jedi tradition is concerned, so does Kylo Ren begin to question his abandonment of his true legacy; the tables keep turning here, which is desirable from the dramatic point of view of sustaining fan excitement about what’s in store two years from now and beyond. Johnson, whose three indie-slanted prior features — Brick, The Brothers Bloom and Looper — are all crime tales tinged with offbeat humor, is faced with at least two major narrative challenges to advance the renewed face-off between the resurgent First Order and the beleaguered Resistance and to further develop the characters introduced two years ago. As to the first issue, neither here nor in The Force Awakens is it convincingly shown how the demolished Evil Empire was able to bounce back so powerfully just 30 years after its destruction. Even less clear is where Snoke came from, not to mention how he ended up with a face that looks like a twisted and rotted old tree. It feels like not nearly as much time is spent with the bad guys than has been the case in previous Star Wars incarnations no Peter Cushing-back-from-the-dead appearances here. As for the one who counts, Kylo Ren, it remains difficult to accept Driver physically as the son of Ford and Fisher unless there’s a surprise parentage revelation yet to come, which could make for a good joke, although the character’s complexities begin emerging in interesting ways that promise even more surprises in two years’ time, when Abrams’ third chapter to this yarn, the still-untitled Star Wars Episode IX, will land. More crucial is building up audience interest in and sympathy for the new banner carriers for the Resistance, and the results remain mixed. As bold soldier Finn, John Boyega made a big splash two years ago, but his character more or less treads water here; he’s reduced to more generic athletics. An adventure he shares with a new character, maintenance worker Rose Tico Kelly Marie Tran, isn’t one of the most compelling interludes of the film’s 162 minutes. Lupita Nyong’o is in again briefly as the leather-skinned-looking old pirate Maz Kamata. Towering Gwendoline Christie, so wonderful in Game of Thrones, is, ironically, hard to spot. The one character who begins to come into his own here is Oscar Isaac’s fighter pilot Poe Dameron. His status seemed rather generic and uncertain in The Force Awakens, but there’s more confidence here both in the writing and performance of the character as he steps up to fill the void left by Harrison Ford’s Han Solo, without yet having achieved that sort of stature. Perhaps in the next episode. At this stage, Poe has his hands full not only with the First Order’s warriors but with a disconcerting new character who has parachuted into the story. Laura Dern’s Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo is a lavender-haired, oddly accoutered contemporary of Leia who turns up ostensibly to help the Resistance. But she has an odd way of speaking, doesn’t like “trigger-happy fly-boy” Poe at all and is so negative about every proposal made to thwart the enemy that one might imagine she’s working for the other team. Time will no doubt tell what her game is, but one shares Poe’s apprehensions. Mixed in with these emotions is the poignance attached to Fisher’s death a year ago toward the end of production. Enlivening things in a more positive way is a blaggard named DJ played with great mischief by Benicio del Toro, who sneaks and slithers around and plays all sides like an unusually active lizard. But while the physical action unfolds in the air and on land the climactic battle explicitly recalls the celebrated combat involving the giant AT-AT, or Imperial Walkers, in The Empire Strikes Back, the real drama lies elsewhere, that being in the weird space that prolonged solitude has made of Luke Skywalker’s head and heart. Stating that he considers himself “a legend and a failure,” Yoda’s former devoted student prefers to let his lineage and teachings die out, and an ideological battle ensues, involving both Rey and Kylo Ren, that’s philosophically engaging and narratively elemental. It’s where the film has been headed all along and will assuredly serve as the springboard for what’s to come in two years. Narratively, Johnson has a tendency to create digressions within digressions, not that there’s anything necessarily wrong with that as long as you’re skilled enough to keep multiple balls in the air, which he mostly is. The humor does at times strike notes unusual for the franchise, more often to the good than bad, and John Williams’ vigorous eighth Star Wars franchise score never sounds rote or tiresomely familiar. Maybe the film is a tad too long. Most of the new characters could use more heft, purpose and edge to their personalities, and they have a tendency to turn up hither and yon without much of a clue how they got there; drawing a geographical map of their movements would create an impenetrable network of lines. But there’s a pervasive freshness and enthusiasm to Johnson’s approach that keeps the pic, and with it the franchise, alive, and that is no doubt what matters most.

Prolog Star Wars adalah salah satu franchise fiksi tertua di dunia sudah > 40 tahun, seharusnya franchise ini selesai dengan 2 trilogi ep 4 -6 dan ep 1 - 3 dan dilanjutkan melalui media lain yang disebut Star Wars Extended Universe / Star Wars Legend. Tapi karena Disney sudah membeli Lucasfilm selaku rumah produksi dari Star Wars, maka diadakan beberapa perubahan seperti mengubah/menghapus beberapa Extended Universe dan tentu saja membuat trilogi terbaru untuk Star Wars!! Hasilnya adalah Episode 7 "The Force Awakens" yang dirilis pada tahun 2015 yang sukses LUAR BIASA walaupun hanya mengulang formula yang ada di "A New Hope" dan memiliki banyak kelemahan lain yang baru saya temukan setelah menonton ulang film ini. Disney sendiri memiliki rencana "cukup nyebelin" dengan merilis ep 8 pada tahun 2017 dan membuat spin-offpada tahun 2016 dengan bentuk "A Rogue One" yang jujur saja terlihat unik dan sangat fresh. Tapi tetap saja para fans harus sabar menunggu 2 tahun untuk melihat Episode 8 dan kelak Episode 9. Lalu bagaimana dengan Episode 8 The Last Jedi ?? media luar sendiri banyak memuji film ini dan beberapa bahkan mengatakan bahwa The Last Jedi sempurna dan lebih baik daripada The Empire Strikes Back, seri yang dianggap sebagai standar tertinggi untuk sebuah trilogi. Apa segitu dashyatnya film ini ??? padahal seharusnya film ini juga bernasib sama seperti The Force Awakens yang hanya sekedar mendaur ualng "A New Hope". Pendapat dari saya ??? The Last Jedi adalah film yang bagus meski memiliki beberapa kekurangan yang bagi saya cukup fatal. Dan ya, bahkan The Last Jedi kembali mendaur ulang "The Empire Strikes Back" meski eksekusinya "sedikit" berbeda saya bilang sedikit yah, bahkan elemen "A New Hope" kembali saya temukan pada film ini. Jadi sepertinya berlebihan sekali jika menyebut The Last Jedi adalah film yang sempurna. Bagi saya sendiri, 30-40 menit dari film ini adalah "mimpi buruk" bagi para fans Star Wars. Tapi seperti kata George Lucas si pencipta Star Wars "Star Wars Is Like Poetry, They Rhyme" Star Wars seperti puisi yang berirama. secara tidak langsung mengatakan jika pasar masih menerima formula yang sama 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Lihat Lyfe Selengkapnya
