I'm not sure what I was expecting, but of course my Star Wars the last Jedi video is controversial
I said some things
I wish had been clearer on and some very good points were made in the comments that I'm about to address and challenge many of
These comments are completely ridiculous and truly horrible
But I'm used to that at this point at the time of me making this the video is about 900 thousand views with
26,000 comments that is an insane amount of comments, but you also have to remember that
26,000 is under 3 percent of the overall amount of views meaning that the comments
I'm showing you in this video only represent the most vocal minority of a vocal minority possible
I just like to remind you that I think is equally fine to hate or love the movie for your own reasons
And I know it might be pointless to even say this but please do try your best to keep the conversation civil
Whether you agree or disagree. It's only a movie I
Think the biggest factor that shows this movie being
Objectively not very good as so the majority of people
I've seen liking it only liked it after second third except reviewing if you need to see a movie twice to like it and understand
What the hell is going on IMO?
It's just not a very good movie a lot of people made this argument first off
This is kind of warping what I said in my video by saying I didn't understand
What was going on in the movie and that's why I had to see it again my exact words were actually I was genuinely
Unsure, but I had an overall positive outlook and vibe
I'm honestly not sure how I could be more clear on my feelings. Also. I don't think a movie is inherently bad
Just because you feel the need to see it more than once in fact a lot at the time the second viewing is what cements
My opinion on a movie be it donnie darko
2001 a Space Odyssey
inception enemy Fight Club Brazil the lego movie Pulp Fiction the list goes on
I think if a movie can offer you something different with each viewing then that is something to be celebrated
And discussed not shut down for being a failure
This is the first video of yours that I've disliked
I'm not going to defend the autists harassing other people because you're right about their ridiculous behavior
You only focused on the morons though?
Where are the legitimate?
critiques and reviews by competent creators
There are real issues with this phone when you only wanted to respond to this Berg's
There's comments like this that make me think that a large portion of viewers didn't actually listen or watch the video
There's an entire section where I address a lot of the major critiques of the film with my own feelings and commentary
I've avoided
Spoilers as best I could so I think some people are taking that as me being dismissive and glossing over the real problems a lot
Of you already know what you didn't like about the movie
So I thought it was pointless to spend a large amount of time covering things everyone else has ad hominem like I know the canto
Bites subplot is hated. I talked about that
I know people are disappointed by Snoke I addressed why I think that decision was made and we'll talk about it more later
Briefly, I know people didn't like the humor. I also address that I know people are upset about Luke
I dressed that I know some people feel really strongly that the film has an agenda
I purposefully didn't touch that because I have nothing to add to that conversation
I know people have problems with the writing and structure
I said how it personally was not an issue for my enjoyment of the film?
I simply cannot talk about every single opinion anyone has ever had on the movie
So I tried to talk about my own thoughts and feelings on what I liked and what I disliked for the record
I think all those things are fair to criticize the film for if you truly feel that way
But what did you mean to lie even if I don't agree with those problems?
I feel how I feel and you feel how you feel get over
The thing I dislike about the new movies is that there is no reason for them to exist at all other than making money
hmm the first six films did a great job of making and
Concluding a satisfying way
And then leaving the rest of the details to the EU if people wanted to expand their knowledge bla bla bla bla bla
Every single movie with budgets as large as this one
Exists to make money all movies have to toe the line of being artwork and product at the same time and as the people
involved who usually
Define where in that spectrum that end movie falls into if you think these new movies are ruining what you liked about the old movies
Then stop supporting them you will always have the old movies to watch as many times as you wish
The Matrix sequels don't make the original a bad movie the Star Wars prequels don't make a new hope a bad movie you take away
As little or as much as you wish are they missed opportunities sure do they ruin what came before it?
Though only if you let it you even have met yourself that the movies aren't bad and are of high quality
So surely that means it's fine for someone to like them. Just like it's fine for you to not like them for your own reasons
Well, I really don't like people who disagree with your movie taste IMO, which is only my opinion the movie was bad
I don't know what gave you that impression?
I said multiple times
I think it's fine to like or dislike the movie the only people I put down are those who I think are being unfair with
their criticisms or being downright nasty and hateful a
Few comments picked out the hypocrisy in me saying I'd like to think people who genuinely hate Star Wars wouldn't waste their time
going
Which is completely fair anyone can obviously see any movie they want and that does seem hypocritical of me to say
Especially seeing as I myself go and see films. I end up not enjoying all the time however the point
I was trying to make was that I would always take the opinion of someone who hates Star Wars
And where's that fact on their sleeve kind of with a grain of salt I would happily listen to their criticisms on
technical aspects of the filmmaking, but if you don't like Star Wars
Then what exactly were you expecting to get out of a Star Wars film
It's like me going to
Fantastic beasts and where to find them as someone who really doesn't care that much about Harry Potter
I can talk about the filmmaking and what works and doesn't work there for me
But I'm just not gonna get the same rush that the people who are really into that world are gonna get the second comment ends
By saying this in my opinion with valid reasons wasn't a good film isn't it wonderful how opinions can be different?
And that's okay because this in my opinion with valid reasons was a good film
I don't think style will sucks
I just think the movie does they did not handle Luke as a character well opinion there were many plot holes
They say without any supporting evidence rose as a character was badly executed
I wouldn't say she was bad, but I also wouldn't say she was good either again an opinion
The jokes are really bad and mostly cringe if the humor didn't work for you, then. That's more than okay, although
I'd argue that this is
Oversimplifying it because that isn't to say that aren't jokes that work Snoke was pointless see to me Snoke was one of the least
Interesting things about the force awakens. I don't understand
Why everyone is acting like they were so invested in his character?
I can see why people might think it's a waste of a potential character
But you have to kind of see it for what it is to me. He's much like the Emperor from the originals
He's just a plot device to force the main characters down a certain path like without the prequels that character is pretty two-dimensional
He's just evil guy like if you're disappointed by that then it's fine, but to me
It just really didn't bother me because the film isn't about him ultimately there was political propaganda in the movie
I mentioned the strange anti 1% message and the animal rights one as well
Which I mentioned I didn't think we're necessary not gonna touch any others
Raiden get a good reason why she has been so powerful so this is something I was kind of hoping for and didn't get there
is a line set by Snoke that kind of implies where it's coming from so you can use your
Imagination a little which I'm not averse to but it doesn't really explain how she was so effective in the first movie like we were
All hoping to me the worst one was Rey being so weirdly effective at piloting the Falcon and force awakens
But I guess like Luke was also able to defeat the bad guys his first time in an x-wing so that kind of oversight isn't
that new to the franchise I expect it's just a convenience to propel the plot forward a
Lot of people correctly pointed out that the section at the end had some problems
I did intend for it to be a bit of humor
But it clearly didn't land very well obviously
Because bad films exist that doesn't excuse the bad things in the last Jedi the point I failed at expressing was that I was trying
To mock the people who are calling the last Jedi the worst movie of the year, which you might say isn't happening
But I am seeing a hell of a lot of it when in my opinion is head and shoulders above
Every one of the films I mentioned in that section
There's not a very well articulated joke and I definitely change it if I could go back
There are plenty of people that didn't appreciate how I rag Don the prequels to make the odd point here in there
It was pointed out by someone that you talked about the purpose of Star Wars movies is to be fun
But then you bashed on the prequels which are the most fun of the Star Wars movies again
That is an opinion and an opinion
I do not share I find the prequels to be fun if you're watching them in the same way
You'd watch the room if I tried to take them seriously, I'm afraid. I just get bored
I don't really see why you think the prequels are so bad since mediocre dialogue does not trouble you yeah
I can deal with mediocre dialogue. It's laughable dreadfully written and delivered dialogue
I cannot get on with which is what I find the prequels to all have I understand you don't like Yoda or the force but
The prequels have a lot more to offer thus you refused to give any details about your complaints
Just watch them again like you're allowed and think this there is more to love about the prequels than to hate
I actually did watch attack of the clones and Revenge of the Sith before making my video, and I'm sorry
But I just do not believe that there is more to liking the prequels than to hate unless you can
totally overlook major flaws with the
filmmaking I didn't cover what I didn't like about the prequels in detail because that wasn't relevant to the subjects of the video and my
God talk about a subject that has been done to death if you haven't seen the plane kit reviews already they more than explain why?
But if you haven't I'd only say I require four things to ensure a Star Wars movie by being good acting good dialogue and interesting
storyline and good production the prequels only have
one of those that being an interesting storyline and that only includes the last two because the Phantom Menace is a confused
Pointless story the acting is bad mostly because of the dialogue and direction and the production is aged poorly due to and over Alliance on
CGI that wasn't that great at the time if those movies at least looked visually amazing I'd be more forgiving
But unfortunately the only time they are visually interesting is when everything is CGI and not servicing any characters
God people set the bar so high when they watch movies they accept to put I think they mean expect a perfect movie
But their movie has even the tiniest flaws they will
Shit all over it I would agree that a hype culture is kind of set the bar to a ridiculous extent however
I do think many of the complaints are totally valid
All right so now on to the people who disagree with me about Luke this movie is no way narrative
Ly satisfying for someone with a functioning brain
This is the exact behavior people in the comments were claiming me to be guilty of based on nothing a pretentious egotistical dimwit
Who instead of accepting my justified feelings has to claim that I am somehow mentally deficient?
Because it's simply so stunning to them that there are people in the world who think differently to them Luke died for nothing he defended
a door for two minutes
That's it and he died for that
What a reductive viewpoint you have I guess by your logic Darth Vader died for nothing he picked up the Emperor and electrocuted himself
That's it and he died for that Han Solo died for nothing who stood on a bridge and got stabbed
That's it and he died for that remove your rose-tinted
nostalgia goggles for a minute and remove your attachment from Luke for just a second and think about how he's presented in the movie and
What his actions actually achieve?
This is a defeated character who has given up on hope because of mistakes from his past that weigh on him
but after his old teacher
approaches him and explains that failure is the greatest learning tool of them all he stops being defeated and
Uses everything he was taught to become a legend like everyone thought
he was his peaceful trick saves the resistance and he lives on to be cemented throughout the galaxy as a hero as shown in the
Very final scene being the spark of hope that inspires countless people to face up against their oppressors
I can't understand if you don't think Luke would ever give up in the first place
despite the fact that the Jedi have constantly given up and gone into hiding but police don't act like that's not a fair reason to
Enjoy his arc in the movie. I personally enjoyed it and found it to be in Luke spirit
He's always been a somewhat flawed character to me. He disobeys all his teachings and Empire
He that's the anger take over very briefly in Jedi the reason
I like Luke is because he seems like a real person to me someone who isn't perfect and makes mistakes
I
Lasted four minutes into your review the best work is when you talk about film structure the way it looks the way
It's made so you mean exactly what I did right after the four-minute mark it's not my fault. You didn't watch the video
The last Jedi was really awful. This is fact not opinion. No that is literally an opinion
They did not occur to you that perhaps Hamill was paid to shut his mouth about voicing his
Criticism on the movie before it came out people don't usually change their minds like that
I don't really want to live in your world
Where people are unable to have their minds changed that sounds dreadful, and now I don't think he was paid to shut his mouth
He's already been paid more than enough to be in these new films my point is even if he did disagree with the character in
The movie that does not make it inherently bad
If that were the case the original trilogy would be truly awful films because Alec Guinness famously hated Star Wars
And thought it was stupid garbage
Harrison Ford would even make fun of how stupid the series is begging for his character to be murdered in Jedi's who didn't have to
Be in anymore those aren't actors having direct issues with the characters
But is still an actors commentary on their work as I said in my video
It's an actor's job to fulfill the director's vision not the other way around
Name five films which came out last year that were better Blade Runner 2049 the shape of water, baby driver it comes at night
Valyrian in the city of thousand
See this right here is a fair comment
I'm not gonna read it can't bothered you can pause it and read it if you want
It doesn't put either side down it just explains what they liked and what they didn't like and what their conclusion is there's nothing wrong
with this
Man you need to stop being pretentious and understand the concept that maybe the movies are bad, and the audience is genuine with their distaste
Despite your opinion of the film not aligning with that viewpoint the irony here is that you are the pretentious one by implying that you
Have the right opinion and that mine is objectively wrong?
Just because I think a little differently to you the fact that I typed the same comment on your last Star Wars review is proof
That you are not improving not improving
What asshole bending my opinion to fall in line with yours because you are so intelligent and above me that yours has to be correct
jog on
I actually liked the last Jedi and I even thought you were full of BS
There is something incredibly petty about this video looking down on those who think differently to you
There's something incredibly petty about this comment looking down on me for my perfectly reasonable and fair video that didn't attack anyone with a fair
Viewpoint since in your view the good outweigh the bad, then the movie is objectively good
one
What are you talking about? Who are you quoting?
I never said that that sentence makes literally no sense whatsoever if you actually understand what the word objectively even means
Why would anyone subscribe to this idiot who hardly explains
Why he thinks anything about the given film or franchise that is exactly what I did for the entire video?
You just clearly didn't like what I said the people who didn't like the film actually go into
Specific detail as to why the film failed and the already established
Franchise this moron just posited major
Supposedly good size to it without any supporting evidence the performances are brilliant and convincing the action is thrilling okay?
So that's your opinion
But why and how how is this even an argument you're trying to pick apart an opinion all of these
People who didn't like the film of which you speak
Are just telling you their opinion how the hell am I supposed to show supporting evidence for
The action is thrilling without just showing you the action being
thrilling which is
Constantly shown in the video through the clips of the thrilling action if you're gonna sit there and tell me I am wrong for thinking
The action is well executed and shot, which it is then how is your anecdotal evidence any more valid than mine?
Angry Joe, and this is the real language
I believe says
focusing on vitriol from fanboys and internet trolls does a disservice to
Actual criticism of the film is there not the entire point of what I was saying how am I supposed to know the actual?
Arguments why people think the film is bad when you mention the movie you get?
20,000 comments or people wanting to kill you and the points being presented is so muddy and
Inconsistent I would much rather talk about actual problems with the film making and writing over opinions on the story that makes sense to me
Including Admiral Ackbar is not fanservice as you suggest
Yes, it is is completely in line with this character a leader of the rebellion that decided to join the resistance as a general okay?
But that doesn't make his death mean anything because he isn't a character with any depth beyond
Being a meme the character who we've met for 15 minutes gets one of the most glorious visually impressive
sacrifices and all of Star Wars in a film that has mixed messaging on whether
Sacrificing yourself for a Cause is even worthwhile or not now that I agree with that's fine
Except when you total up how much screen time Admiral Ackbar actually has in the franchise. It's so minimal
I think it's actually less than hold oh that scene could have easily been given to Akbar
Or held with some rewrites and reshoots Leia herself
That's just one of the many issues with the last Jedi first off Disney would never allow a character called
Akbar to kamikaze their ship into anyone
And I just feel like it would be too goofy with such a weird character
I do completely agree that it is a missed opportunity to use a character
We do not care about for such a great moment, but subbing them in for another character. We ultimately
Do not care about wouldn't have sold that issue for me
I like the idea of that being Leia's final moment
But you simply had to have the seam of Luke and Leia at the end
I feel like that would have been an even bigger missed opportunity if Luke had never had a seam of Leia
It doesn't deepen the law it cuts it short and sets up perhaps one of the most boring
Resolutions Cuyler versus Rey in a lightsaber fight what a bold new direction. Love you, man
I'm not sure if that last bit there was sarcasm or not although
I never said the film is taking us in a bold new direction and it can be criticized for being too safe and similar
That's fine
That's what everyone has been doing to the force awakens for years now the Star Wars has always copied itself like
Jedi's just a remake of a new hope there are moments in the prequels that echo the original trilogy in
Really, not so subtle ways
But this is a kind of thing we can't really comment on properly without seeing JJ's remake of Jedi first
I mean if you really want to see bold
science-fiction with a bit more depth girl much Blade Runner or rival Star Wars has always been simplistic and dumb
Watching bad movies eschewed your opinion
This is actually a really interesting point I've often thought about myself
Of course after watching hundreds of hours of the absolute worst
Garbage that is being released a film like the last Jedi may seem more impressive compared to someone who has never seen
laser blast however
I would argue that knowing the absolute worst like the back of your hand
Actually makes you appreciate the good in a different way yeah perhaps. I am slightly more lenient
You could make that case, but I do see more than just what I talk about on my channel
so this is a somewhat simplified outlook I
Can just imagine I HEA head shooting bread at people
Wait why is this in here you know in the video now?
