Which was a popular show for the franchise. I didn't get into it but I acknowledge it's popularity and impact on the franchise.




A purely hyperbolic statement. You speak from emotion instead of the objective reality that The Last Jedi is no where near as popular or beloved as The Empire Strikes Back. It's your opinion that you liked the film. No one can take that away from you. But just as there are fans of The Room, at least they can accept objective reality that it's not a good film. Narratively, The Last Jedi is a piss poor film and adds nothing to the franchise. As a stand alone film it's an ok popcorn flick when you are looking to watch bad sci-fi/fantasy. But as a part of a franchise, well at least The Room didn't have anything to live up to.

All of this. At least, The Room is a pure stand-alone movie that takes place in its own little universe.
