      Viral Killer Yep. Critics are just pretentiously-self-absorbed people who charge a fee to give their opinion...which means they're EASILY bought and won't think twice about selling out. They get paid to give an opinion, so whoever's paying the most, is the direction their opinion will naturally go.
      I swear, the only reason people liked this movie is because it had the trademark "ping, ping, ping" sound effects from all the other Star Wars films (amongst other trademark sights and sounds). So, in response to this, they clap like the seal-sheeple slaves they truly are.
      People were informed by the "critics" that the movie was "a masterpiece". People nowadays lack the intellectual capability to articulate and form their own analysis. So, they piggyback off the opinion of "the critics" and allow someone else's opinion to hijack their own. Critics are just mental overcompensation for low wattage people who aren't capable of analyzing something all on their own.

    China represents how any person would respond if there wasn't nastalgia behind a trilogy. If you got rid of the Star Wars themes and characters you'd have a jumbled mess of a generic sci-fi movie.

      Ryan Villanueva I don't think China is a big bastion of what quality is since Transformers and the Fast and Furious movies were huge successes over there and a lot of their own big movies (especially the highest selling ones) tend to be subpar at best.
      But the TLJ is pretty mediocre and flawed though.

  • @johnbutler1323

Those white liberals are too deluded and deep echo chamber to know the nuance of this.

      You have no clue. China hasn't liked Star Wars because the original trilogy was banned in China. The Phantom Menace was their introduction to the saga and that would turn a lot of people off. And many Chinese found Episode 1 BORING.

    I have some homework for everyone. Log onto Netflix and just start randomly scrolling through movies. Now, count how many random-ass Jackie Chan movies pop up like "Kung Fu Yoga" or "Railroad Tigers" and even non-Jackie Chan movies that look like straight-to-Redbox fare. Now think: every single one has likely grossed more in China than The Last Jedi will.

      Oh I know, the point I wanted to make was that you can go onto Netflix and basically throw a rock and hit a movie that grossed more in China than what is the biggest movie franchise of all time (which is a clear sign that someone fucked up big time). Didn't mean to disparage Jackie Chan, I've been a fan of his since I was a little kid. The first Police Story and the original Drunken Master (1978) are both in my top 5 favorite action movies.

      Yeah, children love seeing people's arms getting chopped off. Children love hearing about the politics behind the trade federation blockade on Naboo. Children love hearing political speak in general, don't they?
      They crave it all. Can't get enough. Remember that time when Palpatine almost fried Luke to death? yeah the kids love that so much, that kind of stuff never gives them nightmares. How about Vader choking his own people? Does that send children positive messages about handling conversations, that violence is the answer? Anakin slaughtering the Jedi children? Selling and trading human slaves?
      Yeah, it's a movie for children.... right.
      Despite what George Lucas said about SW being made for kids, is nonsense. The only thing for kids was the toys and action figures. The films themselves are still very much adult orientated.

    I am Chinese, just give u guys some ideas how bad TLJ performed in China. I went to a theater located in downtown Shanghai on opening Friday of TLJ. There were only two dudes paid the full price of the tickets. The film lead in box office was a garbage comedy which named after Star Wars to mock this franchise(ex file the return of the ex). The bloggers in China was so pleased with TLJ ,and called it a high quality product. However the fans was so pissed by the stupid story line and incoherent narrative.

Now to china people forget that CHina is still a communist country, and star wars is a movie franchise about rebellion against an empire to set up a democracy. So of course China would not want this type of movie In their country. The movie promotes SJW democracy!

      SuperNavatar lol, those complex myths aren't by smart design but just from the need to flip any expectations from the movie, regardless whether or not it is for the better.
      And superficial issues? Well, when two thirds of the movie consists of them and has to have them function...how is this a 'deep' movie again?

    • @secondsein7749
      @secondsein7749 7 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      SuperNavatar or perhaps it went into your head too much? Sure, the points you said is good and all, but what's the point of it if the rest of the movie is nonsensical? I'm not criticising tlj from the point it tries to get across, but from its storytelling, which it failed.
      It is like cooking, what's the point of a chef making a new delicious gravy when the chicken it is made for is undercooked? No one's going to care about the gravy. The customer will throw shit at the chef for trying to poison him with salmonella.
      If an author wants to get across deep messages in his story, then it helps that he doesn't focused solely on that to the point of neglecting other parts of the story. If that happens, it will distract from the message the author will try to get across. The reader will spend more time on the bad then the good.

    • @secondsein7749
      @secondsein7749 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      SuperNavatar a story, just like any other, depends on execution rather than content.
      Would people care about your message of world peace when you can't speak well in front of the masses?
      Would people care about a game that has deep storyline when the gameplay is a torture to get through?
      Hell, if anything, execution is more important than content. That's how mindless movies do well, they at least execute well even if they story is shit.
      Tlj can't even do that lol.

    I'm a foreigner in China and saw it was dropped from our cinema after a couple a days because only a couple of people were going to the showings. This shows what would happen if TFA was released in the west as a completely new thing. People would think. well those light sword things are interesting but what's this film about? Where's the excitement? Why should I care about these characters. This is the case in China because the original trilogy was banned the first time around. Take away nostalgia and Disney Star Wars is nothing.

    • @chinogambino9375
      @chinogambino9375 7 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Exactly, its why I hated TFA. As a story is doesn't work, nothing in it is set up or payed off correctly, it doesn't explain itself to a new audience, it all happens assuming the audience needs no exposition. Its treats itself like a long episode of a tv series. When Han died I just laughed, if you didn't know who he was then he was just some guy tossed off a bridge like a used rag. If you did then Han died a sad divorcee wearing the same clothes, smuggling, gambling for 50 years straight like he was having a prolonged midlife crisis, then he get's killed by his serial killer emo son, what a garbage life. Rey and Fin acting grief stricken when a guy they've known for no more than a few hours dies is so forced I can't believe it wasn't cut.

    • @toonyard2421
      @toonyard2421 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I mean nostalgia is fueling Disney Star Wars, it's the only reason people will keep going back to it. I don't even think any exposition is needed regarding the older characters, sometimes the less you know the more interesting characters are but we need to know about the main characters at least. I mean the new characters are not interesting at all and we have no reason to care about them because we know nothing about them. TLJ is even worse at this.What do we learn about Finn, Rey, Poe, Snoke? Nobody develops, nobody has an arc. Ask people who like TLJ this simple question - what's it about? If they can come up with an answer other than - female empowerment I'll applaud them. I saw a video that basically said Ghostbusters is the only movie that isn't about anything but it works because of the chemistry between the main characters and the jokes. TLJ seems to be trying to be a comedy that isn't about anything but fails at that too.

      @sjdrifter72 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I've been a fan from the very beginning when Star Wars was not called Episode IV A New Hope and I was not blinded by nostalgia. In fact, I could smell the stench a mile away the moment I heard Disney bought the franchise from Lucas and announced a whole slate of films. I trusted my intellect and stayed away from all Disney Star Wars films. I learned my lesson from the prequels, which is NEVER FALL FOR THE HYPE no matter how much they want to beat you over the head with it.

      sjdrifter 72, Me too. How can you resist not seeing what they did to our Luke? When I saw the first teaser trailer I was into the nostalgia and really thought it was going to be great. I even booked a hotel in hong kong cos it weren't out in china until mid Jan. But when I saw the poster with that fat deathstar ripoff on it I thought -oh for f**ks sake. Now a lot of us are going purely out of curiosity with maybe a dash of nostalgia

    When I found out about this, I laughed my ass off. While it’s sad to see Star Wars become what it has, the fact that people are finally talking with their wallets is a good thing. If a movie isn’t good, don’t see it multiple times. Curious as to how Disney and Lucasfilm will respond to the lower box office TLJ has received as well as the backlash from fans. People seem to be waking up to TFA as well. Things are starting to look up.

"A small, bitter contingent of basement-dwelling, alt-right Star Wars fans took time from playing D&D (the racist version!) to strike back against diversity and common decency in the Star Wars universe" a Disney representative said Monday. "Due to flaws in the structure of the internet, they were able to promote a "fake news" narrative that "The Last Jedi" was unsuccessful, even claiming that it was not a good movie. Steps are being taken to discourage internet sites from promoting this kind of troll behavior."
      And so it goes....they'll claim they didn't lose money, they didn't really expect big returns from the Chinese market, and they expect repeat sales from the otherkin, trans, and Somali communities to ensure ongoing profitability yadayadayada....

    The Chinese don't like the current star wars characters, since they are unlike-able, ugly, and act in dumb ways. They also don't like the lack of color and flair in the current movies, while treating established characters poorly (han/luke). There's been other commentary regarding the action scenes being boring compared to rogue one, which had one actor salvage that for them (hint, it wasn't cassian, jyn, or even vader...).
    So yeah, they must also be very sexist and racist as well, obviously (in spite of obvious pandering).

    I went to see TLJ in Shanghai with my friends, and no one came out satisfied. Also, I'm not aware of any pirate version of TLJ available in China, probably because it was not worth pirating since it's no big hit.
    To be honest, no one in China would go to see a foreign movie just because it features some random asian girl. Rogue one did well in China because its Chinese actors are famous. Yen is an action star and Jiang Wen was a top-notch actor-director that produced a great movie in 2010. So when a SW movie got them in the cast, people wanted to see it, but why would a random Vietnamese actor make any difference? As a result ,only those who know about Star war(which are far fewer than in US) in China went to see it.
    Everyone I know whom watched TLJ are complaining about the plot holes, the inconsistency between TFA and TLJ, and that they ruined Luke. They know a bad movie when they see one.

In a way they harped back to C3P0 and R2D2 comedic partnership, which in turn reffd back to the two 'crap samurai' characters in The Hidden Fortress.
    It worked, wheras all the rest of the diversity hires ARE obvious checklist hires.

      Of all the Star Wars fans I know well personally -- and I'm talking more than twenty -- not one of them thinks TLJ is a good movie. The opinions range from god-awful to mixed feelings. From what I've seen, those who like it most are porg-loving girls -- mostly the same girls who, for years, couldn't tell Star Wars from Star Trek. They're all over Twitter and Facebook spreading memes about Reylo. That's basically what it's turned into -- a chick flick.

      Brian. Jr Montoya, midichlorians just connects physical bodies with the force. People, that are strong with the force, have a lot of midichlorians, not the other way around. Its basically a way to see the power level of a jedi. The fact, that you are ranting about them, just shows that you are another dumb OT fanboy, who doesnt know shit about lore and whines about everything, that he cant understand.

    I’m not sure if this is related but what is really interesting is they keep making comic books and novels to justify and fill in the many plotholes in the new movies (i.e there was a comic book that explains how Phasma escapes Starkiller base). I understand that those sidestories aren’t the main the main focus of the new trilogy and not every plot hole can be filled all at once but it is not a good movie if you have to keep relying on extra material to make sense. Theres probably gonna be a novel about Snoke and his backstory which would be more interesting than TLJ. Theres a difference between expanding the story and filling the story
    EDIT: Its also not a good story if the director himself has to constantly explain the story

      The Expanded Universe should expand, not patch up. With original 6 films I was able to understand the plot flow just fine, and then the old EU (current Legends) expanded it and confirmed some things. With new films too often I and many other people wonder WTF happened and how, and that's when I hear recommendations to read some book or comics to understand these films. So films aren't even providing the basic info, turning new EU into damage control first and means of expansion second. That's poor work being done.

It's not going to crack 600 million this week in the United States. It continues to tank every week and right now rotten tomatoes the score is at 49 percent. Garbage!

    Well, I'll make a wild guess here and say that SW isn't well received in China since they know very well the "heroe's journey" story line, they have one of best stories of all time Journey to the West, and even today produce manhuas and stories that follow the same plotline but are hundreds of times better and more extense but at the same time have coherence, make sence and are logical. So it's no novelty for them since the beginning and even worse now that disney changed it into a gynocentric pc sjw wetdrem of a hellhole. If someone from china can correct me and give us the right answer that would be great.

    Disney are full of themselves. You know why? Because the head leader of Lucas Film is a female "feminist" money maker. Kathleen Kennedy She even stated I think in a press conference that " She doesn't need to cater to "male" fans "... she doesn't care about Star Wars Fans or Lore as long as they make profit. She knows that even if she gets fired ( and she will ) she still gets paid at the end.... but at the end, the Fans have nothing. I am very disappointed in Disney for having a woman that thinks for herself instead of thinking for the Fans. I think they should re-do star wars 8 with James Cameron as Director. We will all be "guaranteed" to have the star wars we always wanted. Rian johnson wasn't ready for this and was influence by Disney to alter the storyline to their convenience for "kids" and parents. NOT for Star Wars Fan. They gambled on the fact that the old generation ( us ) won't bother if they change everything to their taste.. but nope. They made a big mistake because the "old" generation is more then present in social media and around the world. It's because of our voice that "China" has decided to reduce their screening ( as they stipulate in the article ). Without "true fans" voicing out there, Movies, Producers, Directors are nothing. If Movie Producers don't want to get " bashed ", they should listen to the "true fans" voices out there because "we" built star wars. "we" are the real consumers ( comic books, video games, conventions, social media, etc etc etc. "we" are the one who will decide of the fate of the Producer's and Director's legacy. Unfortunately, some Producers and Directors think they're so "up there" on the ceiling that they are blinded by what is really good or wrong for a movie. That's why Rian Johnson's legacy and reputation is going downhill and will be hated for a "very" long time ( ouch..... ) .... and "that" will affect many things... his subvention for movies.... the cast that "will not" want to be part of his movies....the "crew" that will not want to work with him...Producers that will "not" want him in their projects... etc etc etc.... his reputation is going down but I don't think he can see it because according to his tweeter account, he thinks like Disney. So him and Disney are both going down hill... but they don't see it as they are blinded by stats " paid by Disney ) to make false promotion on a fail movie. ( Ex: I saw a video teaser they made in Star Wars tweeter account and their teaser promoted the fact that Star Wars: The Last Jedi was NO 1 movie AROUND TE WORLD! ) Like seriously... this is false marketing and people believe that. Incredible isn't it. Disney pays the "Press" and newspapers to promote their movies as best they can promote it. Easy. But sneaky and lying lizard. We as "fan" all know that this movie is total "shit" and garbage. I wish that there was a good Director ( like James Cameron ) who could re-do star wars 8....... I think that... would ease the tension among fans around the world to know that finally, someone can do something "great" for us. But I guess it will never happen... cheers. PS: Oh, and if by "any miracle" James Cameron decide to do it... he MUST NOT be influence by Disney and their dumb jokes in the god damn movie. LET THE FUCKING DIRECTOR DO HIS FUCKING JOB and let the PRODUCER SHUT THE FUCK UP AND STICK TO HIS FUCKING JOB. Sorry if I'm angry... I'm just pissed like many of you. I am trying to control myself but it's hard when you grew up with Star Wars... it's very hard...peace.

      I have a hate-on for Laura Dern now. A serious hate-on for showing her weak sheepish mind in playing in a SJW joke of a movie...hate white men? Want to make all men look ridiculous and stupid? Fuck you Laura Dern, Kathleen Kennedy, Rian Johnson, and the assholes at Disney that so obviously fucked SW's fanbase for moolah without the commensurate effort to earn it. SW was diverse! Now it's flat and cringe...it's dead.

    Oh yeah it's totally not because TLJ sucks, the Star Wars franchise doesn't have the impact it does in litteraly every else and because of Disney making theatres give them 70% of ticket sales no it's because of Jumanji. (Sarcasm)

      Yeah man, The Last Jedi backlash is such a great primer on how not to watch a movie! Everyone please turn your brains off! Please mindlessly watch the special effects!

    Star Wars doesn't have the nostalgia factor in China.. so the chinese audience can see these new Disney Star Wars movies with objectivity and their conclusion is they are shit.
