@TatooineSons It's not that. The writing was bad and inconsistent and the tonality was off.

Calling TLJ “not real Star Wars” because it dared to challenge heroes and explore failure isn’t just gatekeeping, it’s missing the point George Lucas made for decades.
Movies for kids can still be for adults too.
My guess is if you hate The Last Jedi, you would have hated The Empire Strikes Back too (if social media had been around to tell you how you were supposed to react to it).

@ITalk21 Had the same with the first book. Only in the second book it really clicked with me.
English
@beninthecapita1 @OneArmedBoh @UpdatingOnRome For most people yes (although I personally loved Gardens of the Moon). Book 2,3 and 5 are considered the best by many.
English
@OneArmedBoh @UpdatingOnRome Does it improve after the first book?
English
@devSithun @OneArmedBoh Maybe the best sequence in the whole series
English
@OneArmedBoh Bob is right. Half a book of people crawling through darkness of a collapsed city sewer when that city is also on fire. Terrifying. I didn't use to have claustrophobia.

I haven't been here in ages, so let's start with an important question:
What's the best fantasy or romantasy book you've read in 2026 so far? 👀📚
I'm always looking for new books to add to my ever-growing TBR. Mine were Fury Bound, The Night Prince, Rites of the Starling, among many others.

@FrikinTrash Loved this one. That was my favorite book of last year.

Cr. The Fifth Season by N K Jemisin
Finally doing this I’m so scared
English
@mirela_9032 Yeah that's one of the big differences to the movies. There is much more stuff happening before they reach Elrond.

May included some awesome SPFBO reads, more bangers from @JoeBerne1 and @GameOverStation, and @FondaJLee continues to be a favorite all-time author.
🏆 Book of the Month goes to The Dark Forest by @CixinLiu. A sci-fi masterpiece.

Started this gem today. Has anyone read Magician Apprentice by Raymond E. Feist?

You just won a 2-week, all-expenses-paid vacation. But there’s a catch: you have to stay within one region the whole time. What are you picking?

You realize that if The Empire Strikes Back was released in December of 2017 the narrative around it would be the same today as The Last Jedi, right?
English
@shadowknightdk Yeah especially when the empire had the chance to end the rebellion but chose to stay away in order to safe fuel. Peak writing!
English
unbelievable filmmaking by rian johnson. a masterpiece in terms of characterization, pacing and direction. one of the best-looking films in the franchise. its insanely funny how it made the "fans" mad and yk what idc what anyone says, this film rules

#nw: star wars: the last jedi (2017)
English
@corellianlegend By itself it was a bit bland but it had the potential to be the start of a great trilogy. The newly introduced characters were interesting at that time.
English
Pretend The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker never happened.
Did you and do you now like The Force Awakens?
English
@fadule_ Your tier 2 is actually the lowest tier. Everything else is on a high tier.

@the_book_hermit @JoeBerne1 @mike_mollman @paolini @mattdinniman @AmberRaeToro Man The Fall of Hyperion was so phenomenal.

🪐 Sci-Fi Sunday 🚀
Who doesn’t love a good sci-fi tale?
If anyone is looking for their next read, might I recommend Project Hail Mary or Operation Bounce House?
English
@noachlive I tried to like Andor. I only survived three episodes of season 1. Maybe it gets better, but I found it boring and too self serious, not what made me love Star Wars. Should I give it another try?
