I think 8 is the biggest steaming pile of garbage ever, but 7 was simple fun and 9 would have been decent if it wasn’t forced to rebuild the china shop that 8 had just rampaged through. The Last Jedi took every bit of work building a narrative that 7 had done, piled it up, shat on it, then lit it on fire, all in the name of trying to be a cool rogue auteur. 9 had no choice but to do inane contortions like “somehow, Palpatine returned” because there were no fucking villains left alive.
Rian Johnson should never be allowed within a hundred miles of a beloved franchise he didn’t create. He can keep making Knives Out, but I will die on the hill that The Last Jedi is a selfish, senseless, poorly written piece of hackery.
Partial blame goes to Disney for not having the sequel trilogy plot predetermined in a story bible before ever putting the first ink to script.
State parks that now hand you a fucking glamour shot of a pedophile as a ticket and bar you from defacing it while that selfsame pedophile sells the oiliest parts of said nature to the highest bidder.
Time to start looking up every white-ass right-wing voter in the state that has a second home or spends early November out of state this year and challenge their registration 91 days before the 2028 election.
Ethiopian Berbere. Trust me. You can add it to almost anything when it needs a kick of earthy umami. We keep tons of it on hand because it’s shockingly useful for something so rarely used.
