How did Last Jedi get such a high rotten tomatoes score?

[BEER]

See, i didn't find ANY social justice undertone and until after i left the theater and read up on it. That said, i found it to not be the worst movie ever but clearly the worst star wars movie. I even voted it as a 6 on its own poll. But to like it...?

So you liked...
The love interest between finn and the bland looking & acting girl
The limited training rey received.
The fact that luke was grumpy, says he wont train, then trains, then helps.
The demise of snoke.
The demise of luke.
That throne room fight scene.
The entire casino scene.
The slow starship chase.
The comedy.
The starship kamikaze

You didnt mind...
Leia Poppins
Yoda saying fuck the books.
No light saber battle.
No snoke explanation.
Reys origin
Bombs dropping in space
Po having no big parts
Starship kamikaze.

I enjoyed the movie. I stated as much. Listing the things you personally disliked doesn't change that.

Because it was a legitimately great movie.

You have really low standards.

Y'all are butthurt that Luke died and that there are strong female characters.

The worst thing in the movie was Leah floating through space and surviving.

No, Rey is a legit Mary Sue with no explanation for her abilities. I dont give a shit if Luke died a retarded dog could write a better movie. This movie sets up nothing for the next film. Rey vs Crylo again? We already know how that's going to end up.

It's not terrible, but i wouldn't say it's very high, especially if we're comparing it with other movie's scores.
TLJ IS AT A 91% I think..and that was a shit movie

I guess my point was more that if Disney was paying off movie sites, why only do it for SW and not their ginormous Marvel movie?

Were never going to know.

We do know that people that like or love this movie are outliers. Theres always someone that loves being a contrarian, we all know this. However, to get it this wrong AND sparking a massive outcry, that now puts Rotten on anyones radar that is now questioning it.

Had TLJ made out fine, maybe Avengers wouldve gotted a skewed score as well.

This is all conjecture

This reply was more enjoyable than the last jedi!

It was only a matter of time before this ridiculousness started. And it didn’t even take two pages.

“Fucking SJWs and black people! Wah, people liked a movie I didn’t like. It couldn’t possibly be that I have shit taste. It’s a conspiracy to feel sorry for black people.”

Donany of you know what little whiny bitches you sound like?

Considering the majority of people hated it, you're wrong. Forums, reddit, youtube, facebook, everyone I know hated this film. Even my fucking 8 year old nephew who loves SW thought it was fucking retarded. Also, what do you have against black people? No one mentioned being pissed off at black folks lmfao. You seem to be doing a LOT of reaching with this post bud. This movie has SJW overtones whether you care to admit it or not.

Christ, what a low hanging fruit jab.

There are lota of movies with "strong female characters " that are actually enjoyable.

Dude, people have absolutely had temper tantrums about having a black lead character. Especially after TFA.

And all the "omg sjw agenda" shit is absolutely a dog-whistle.

Stop playing dumb.

Luke made an impossible shot in A New Hope after 2 hours practice with the Force.

I agree. But any of them with the notoriety and cult following similar to Star Wars?

Do you even remember the message boards after the opening weekend? So many people had their panties in a bunch over the so-called SJW agenda.

A friend of mine who is a true MAGA'ist and Star Wars fanatic refuses to see the movie to this day because he read in all his favorite alt-right blogs that the movie was Liberal propaganda.

Im ok with that. A trick shot vs a light saber battle vs a sith is massively stretched apart.

If were comparing anecdotal evidence, i didnt notice any sjw material until it was pointed out. I just wanted a fun star wars movie.

 

[ThinkGreen]

Revenge of the Sith is the best film in the franchise.

 

[Halge]

Finn is a blundering idiot.

At least there's some complexity and humanity to him. The other characters are cookie cutters.

 

[MuyThaiTom]

Critics are liberal. You will notice movies with liberal themes, critic score higher than the fan score. Movies with conservative themes, fan score higher than critic score. It's a simple formula.

If you can't see the conscious decision to inject a liberal/SJW agenda and the whole "diversity" schtick into the Star Wars franchise, you lack basic social intelligence.

It's not a conspiracy per se, just people in powerful positions wanting to push certain agendas, because they can.

One lucky shot is completely different than battling a sith lord and using advanced force powers with no explanation. Luke was atleast the son of fucking Darth Vader. Rey is no one.

like come the fuck on lmfao, the workers on the space ship were all white fat ugly chicks too that look like they work at huffington post. Yet no females work for the first order outside of phasma? give me a fuckin break. If this chick was a bad bitch and made fun of sjw types and was a hardass like Ridley in Aliens I would give no fucks about her.
