    I hope the outcry of the whiners isn't enough to keep Disney from continuing in new directions.

    Please don't let it happen.

    Please.

    The box office and the critical acclaim that they are getting is what they will measure by. They aren't concerned with an easily manipulated user score. One of the places I had read said something about someone at Disney acknowledging the score and saying the very thing that we are saying about it here. It's fake.

    Weird thing for me: Never once felt the runtime (and went in anticipating that I would). Also, Luke's arc was so brilliant and played out perfectly if you can get past the emotional hiccup of him dying. Truth is, he was destined to be a Force ghost, whether it's dying when he did, or early in Ep 9. I think RJ used the dire hour of this film to send him off in one of the best ways possible.

    Also excited to think of his return...

    The desperation for some people to believe these manipulated polls is pretty amazing. If you didn't like the movie why do you even care? LOL

    CNET - 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' positive vibes slipping online
    Commentary: An analysis of more than 5 million online mentions shows the latest Star Wars film is polarizing.

    Because they must be right. The movie has to have a BAD opinion majority. Despite that not mattering, especially when opinions are subjective and always changing anyways. Like a lava lamp.

    To be fair to those sites why should they? There's only a handful of titles that people do this with every year. If these losers want to game these polls let them. It is funny though watching people cite them like they matter.

    The Associated Press - 'The Last Jedi' is a hit but how much did audiences like it?

    Yep, i know that there is in facebook a dude that is saying that is responsable of that as revenge of what the critics are saying about justice league (dc guy) and from what i have seen in rotten tomatoes I can belive it a little bit, but i have my skepticism, because maybe he wants to seek attention, but that there exist bots ( for good or bad reviews) they are

    Why are people arguing so much about external polls when we have a forum with thousands of users and we can make polls?

    I think Magnar is spamming articles like they are factual gospel that the film is bad. Or RT score manipulation is only positive, and negative people are true fans.
    --- Double Post Merged, Dec 19, 2017, Original Post Date: Dec 19, 2017 ---
    Because there are people on here who THINK the film is good and will DEFEND it from baseless criticism and brigading.
