SPOILER Last Jedi Video
Hey guys, as requested I'm reposting this as patrons-only. I'll make it live sometime this evening before I go into my screening.
Would also appreciate if you guys let me know if this upload was like, flawed! Haha. I hastily deleted the last upload and reuploaded before I had to run out the door. So in theory this should be identical to the last upload, just a new url! But I haven't technically given it my usual safety-watch to check for upload glitches.

Also, I am puzzled at how you predicted Rose Teacup and the alien horse race. Did I miss something in the previous movies that introduced these elements? How on earth did you predict them?
Jenny has immersed herself so deep in the Star Wars that she's more Star War now than woman. Twisted and precognitive.
I accept that opinions vary. I can conceive the possibility that someone else might find this movie enjoyable, even though I personally thought it was three short, dull, stupid movies shuffled together to make one long, even duller movie. I can grasp that possibility. But to think it an exceptionally *good* movie? One of the *best* Star Wars movies? To sit through slapstick pratfalls, endless stultifying exposition, pod racing -- I mean space horse racing, stuttering Benicio Del Toro, Super Leia flying through space (I was stifling laughter during that, that was so amazingly stupid), space hamsters, a completely unnecessary and pointless Laura Dern subplot, the Slowest Spaceship Chase In The Universe, the fact that everything the good guys tried during the movie failed... every. single. thing. -- they succeeded at *nothing* ... and then to consider this a high point of the film series? Perhaps even #2 behind the original "Star Wars" (1977)? I accept it: I am not saying anyone is wrong or their opinion is invalid. But it baffles me. For what it's worth, I thought "Star Wars 7: Episode 7: The Force Awakens" (2015) was great fun, but I did not like "Star Wars 8: Rogue One" (2016).
They succeeded at Not Dying and I think that's worth something. I need it to be, actually, because if it isn't then my life has more-or-less been a complete failure, too.
Finally got a chance to see it! It gave me more than a few canon and action-movie character laughs. And yes, that whole time with the ship striking the other ship in such a manner had my adrenaline flowing. They did it just right. I want to play it on a better sound system than my theater apparently had. Good, true assessment!
I really hope that at some point in Episode IX, Hux refers to himself as Assistant Supreme Leader, and Kylo Ren interjects with "Assistant TO THE Supreme Leader".
Personally I think his redemption is still inevitable. For one, what kind of ending is it if this poor kid (even if he's a piece of shit and a monster) gets ganked after all the development he's gotten? For another, there was Luke's line: "No one's ever really gone." Sure, it was probably about Luke himself, but I think it had to be about Ben too.
For me, the fact that he said that to Carrie Fisher really set off the waterworks.
JENNY WAS RIGHT. If you don't count the people who seem to hate ALL new Star Wars content, the people who hated TLJ will praise Rogue One. Pretty uncanny.
While I think you have the beginning of a good idea, I still maintain the position that prequel reminders are detrimental and should be avoided entirely if at all possible.
What are your thoughts on Chewbacca eating a porg while others watched in horror and cried?
It was worse than that, he killed it, cooked it, and then didn't eat it. At least I don't think there was a scene of him actually eating it.
Does the Gareth Edwards cameo count as a Rogue One shoutout? And I guess there was brief allusion to an ugly dangerous sea monster just off the island?
Hi there. I'm with the Lucasfilm Story Group. #didyouknow Luke Skywalker is a book burning Nazi! Luke Skywalker destroys religious heritage sites as if he were a member of ISIS! Luke Skywalker used his force iPhone to Facetime his final battle against a dark side force user! (or not a dark side force user... or whatever! Labels suck!) EVERYONE is a Jedi!!!! ... just "be yourself" and let go of the past! How do you let go of the past....? Well I hope it wasn't in those books Nazi Luke Skywalker burned!
I... what?
Benicio's character was my favourite Star Wars character because he's who I imagine I'd be in that universe: entirely self-serving and quite awful unless paid well enough to not be. He's too competent to be a perfect fit, but I guess that's why it's a fantasy. Also he's not evil; he gives the necklace thing back. He's just pragmatic and... Wait, is he Lando?
Any thoughts on the milk scene?
I eagerly anticipate what Rule 34 is going to do with that moment.
I thought the movie was only ok (3.5 out of 5). I didn't mind the length, what I minded was all the waste. They spent a movie+ building up characters like Snoke and Plasma just to throw them away. Luke's personal arc through the entire franchise now seems wasted as well or at least underwhelming. Finn ends up trading places with Rose (who was great) in a coma at the end has an entirely wasted plot line. Po I guess magically transforms from hero to leader in a half dozen scenes doesn't feel earned. Also the space Leia scene feels so weird. Also how could it even be plausible that all it took was light speeding into a ship (or in this case a dozen) to destroy it. I mean their science is supposed to be advanced and this seems like a pretty basic thing to know. Why didn't they try this a dozen or so times before with like death stars or super star destroyers? Also while the addition of comedy worked in Thor and could have been ok here, I felt it was overused and by people who never had that attitude before. Don't get me wrong there is a lot to like Rey, BB8, Rose but I wish they did more with what they had.
I really really struggle with the people saying that Luke's arc was wasted. I never expected them to get that much out of what could have been a boring, run-of-the-mill Jedi master, when they announced the new trilogy. What would you have prefered?
I like that you're performing stunts now. You should open each video with a pratfall, like Chevy Chase on the early SNL episodes.
Break your mind 20 years all alone in the swamp will.
Did anyone else get a weird Hugh Hefner vibe from Snoke's gold robe?
I didn't know who you meant by "two" people tried to kill him. Until I saw that scene again and realized what Hux was doing, and I lmao in the theater.
The Hux part was amazing. He played it off so casually
The video was fine. No issues. I want to tackle about it, but I want to be nice to the people who haven’t seen it yet.
Finally became a patron because of this video. Thanks for always being authentic and hilarious <3
If I offered you a warm welcome, would you vote for my suggestion when the time comes? I believe this is how politics work.
