Star Wars:The Rise of Skywalker. I have never left a movie feeling like my intelligence was insulted until that movie.

That movie was ten times worse than TLJ, an a absolute shitfest from start to finish.

Rise of Skywalker is barely a movie. It feels like a reddit post written by someone mad at TLJ.

That is the perfect distillation of what it feels like watching that shitshow.

For the life of me I can’t understand this. It doesn’t even make sense from a business perspective. Like, yes people will pay to see this movie no matter what but that good will will dry up eventually. Any amount of effort to have made these movies legitimately decent would have paid off vastly in the long run. It just seems utterly bizarre that Disney would just YOLO this shit and stand around as their golden goose is slowly strangled for what ever gold flakes they can pick out of the shit
