Since Ep3, Star Wars movies have had diminishing returns from the box office. I've had no friends ask me about this movie. The trailer has less views than the SW Angry Birds Darth Maul teaser. Apathy is death and we're seeing it in real time.

Correct. Not to beat a dead horse but Star Wars is NOT in a good place in terms of pop culture relevance. Fan interest outside of niche online spaces is lower than it has been in a long time. Disney should be doing more to market what’s coming!

Yes people do change over time However core values like willingness to give up all to save the ones you love tend to remain intact When Luke confronted Kylo on Crait he never felt bad or apologized, he made fun of Kylo That's not character progression
Risebluesun ceo of Obi-Wan Kenobi@risebluesun

I feel a lot of people don’t think about, or realize, how much a person can change as they grow older. Especially after living through different types of trauma. Sure, people will or can retain certain characteristics, but their outlook may change, their desires, likes or interests, or even relationships with people they care about. Hell, sometimes they can become completely unrecognizable, for better or worse. Life and the environment you find yourself in can really have an impact on who you are as a person. To think someone is going to be the same person in their teens or early 20’s after 20+ years, and loads of adversity, is a bit foolish.

@oldmansteeb @valeriefinnigan Well I guess you're right. None of the characters learned anything Han was back to being a smuggler Leia was back to leading a rebellion Luke was back to brief moments of anger Really exciting to watch the same movies again

@comfortable8374 @valeriefinnigan Luke almost killed Vader before looking at the hand he severed, his own robotic hand, then turning back from the brink. Its almost like theres a parallel between his interactions with Vader and Kylo Ren

@drew_downs I respect your point. However, when in a similar situation in RotJ, Luke had a decision between saving his father or helping the rebellion. He chose to save his father, even when Vader turned him over to the Emperor. He still didn't give up. That devotion, and lack thereof

@comfortable8374 You also gotta realize that when we follow a character for a long time, seeing who they are, theirs going to be push back if you dramatically change them. That kind of change I think you have to show happen instead of just dropping it on us like Last Jedi did.

@valeriefinnigan @oldmansteeb And yet, when Vader brought Luke before the Emperor, Luke still didn't stop trying. That's the character. Not someone who just shrugs and gives up because an emotional young guy says no.

@ahsokareign2023 My issue was, if you are going to burn everything that came before, don't do it in half-measures. If you want to destroy the legacy of Luke Skywalker, make him a full blown evil. Destroy it all if you are going to destroy anything.

Hollywood has been trying pretty hard to get women interested in superhero movies. When are they going to start making romantic comedies for men?

@JSPtheSecond @oldmansteeb You'll never get a genuine answer, that guy started the conversation quite hostile. So much anger when someone disagrees about a movie for 12 year old.

@valeriefinnigan @FilmaticFury After ignoring him for years. And then promptly made fun of him instead of trying to help, redeem, or save him. It's like saying "sorry bro", immediately tripping them in front of their friends, and walking away smiling

@TunesRank Precisely. No explanation, no world building or character development. He just is polar opposite of the last time we saw him.

@comfortable8374 The movie never showed us Luke changing. It just expected us to believe he would turn into that after nearly killing his nephew cos he “sensed Snoke in him” when Snoke turns out to be utterly useless

@dashielldavies @araz4liberty That is correct I'm technically both, though it was not for any Star Wars production I still feel that all opinions are valid If some people liked Luke in that movie, more power to them. I did not. Sam did not. Other people did. Art is subjective

@oldmansteeb I'm going to ignore you for a few years Then I'll reply and apologize, then make fun of you in front of everyone Since that's apparently a reasonable apology that stands above any prior or immediate contrary actions

@ThatJunkman I’ve only seen one production image from the film and it doesn’t look even remotely interesting to me. Plus, Ryan Gosling is in it, so that’s a major strike against it in my book.

I know its early, but the Star Wars Starfighter movies sounds dumb. I hope I am wrong but who cares about a movie about people flying around. I hope its more not Top Gun in space

@oldmansteeb And then proceeded to mock him and never try to help, save, redeem, or understand Kylo One line does not outweigh years of inaction and subsequent mockery

@araz4liberty Exactly. Sam Witwer said he felt like Luke would get there and say something like "Ben I'm so sorry". Not "see you round kid"
