In an age where most Star Wars directors can't keep their job, Kathleen Kennedy/Disney apparently are such big fans of Rian Johnson that they gave him his own trilogy.

6 more days until I see episode VIII
"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

It's perfectly capable of being enjoyed. But it's just not up to snuff with the originals. Heck, even the prequels had their charm.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostNo bueno?
You just have to accept that there's no going back.
You'll all be happy to know that my opinion will probably be a minority opinion. I didn't like force awakens that much either.τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσιν

The rottentomatoes ratio between critics scores and audience score is looking kind of bad.
Critics -- 93%
Audience -- 64%
A few other examples I glanced at:
Ghostbusters 2016 critics -- 75%, audience 52%
Revenge of the Sith -- 79%, 65%
Force Awakens -- 93%, 89%
Thor Ragnarok -- 92%, 88%
Justice League -- 40%, 80%
Batman v Superman -- 27%, 63%
Judging by that Ghostbusters movie, a steaming pile of shit can get 50%.Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

Generally, I think IMDB is more accurate to my taste than RT. The critics vs audience that you show here kind of validates that. I haven't seen all those, but it looks like the audience ranking is more in line with my taste than the critics in those exmaples.Originally posted by Color Me Badd Fan View PostThe rottentomatoes ratio between critics scores and audience score is looking kind of bad.

New Star Wars is sitting 8.1 IMDB right now. Considering mostly super fans are voting so far, and as I recall Force Awakens was north of 9 its first couple days, I'm downgrading my expectations on this one. Bummer.

I enjoyed it. Better than The Force Awakens. They are going in a very different direction, which upsets the nostalgia that many people have. But, it will allow for the story to develop without being constrained by the previous movies.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostNo bueno?"The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."

I will trust the critics on this.
