Because it came out like 2 or 3 months after The Last Jedi came out, and that movie was a gigantic turd. So fatigue was a factor, the prior movie being complete ass was a factor, and honestly I don't think Star Wars has done a very good job at hyping its last couple of movies up. I feel like previews and stuff just have not been there leading up to these movies. I vividly remember not hearing anything about Solo coming out, then all the sudden hey a new star wars movie with young han solo is coming out! In like a month! Anyway, another factor is people love to hate on social media anymore. TLJ legitimately deserved to be criticized to the max, but that criticism just kept coming and coming and it piled on to Solo for no other reason that TLJ just sucked so bad that nobody had any confidence this would be better.

It has a serious argument for being the 2nd best film in the entire saga. Suck on it, haters.

For me parts of it are the best in all of Star Wars and parts of it are the worst, so I have it right in the middle.

TLJ is not good. It’s not bad either. But it had the potential to be very good, and it’s at worst, an interesting and bold inconsistent movie. But WHY it misfired is not the unorthodox plot reasons I usually here. Except for Canto Bight, which indeed is also not f***ing podracing or Boss Nass.

I think TLJ is the second-best film in the series but I think most of them have been terrible to mediocre.
Just saw Rise of Skywalker, and I can confirm it is a Star Wars movie.

The recontextualization in the Witcher is absolutely brilliant. One might say, magical

If I have to play that game to start understanding your posts as well as the series, I am going to be sad.

That second one was fine - why didn't they just make more of those? Stupid idiots. You know, the kids of today are going to grow up not having any idea what it means to have standards.

Episode 7 adds context to episodes 1, when Cintra falls. Context to things like Moussack's "destiny may side with us yet" line. Or the time when Ciri looks at the doorway, further showing the destined connection. It's just f***ing awesome

I liked 2011 Thundercats. I was sad when it was canceled after a season. Emmanuelle Chriqui voicing Cheetarah was a bonus.
But this new one is a f***ing dumpster fire and an insult to the franchise. Most new cartoons are f***ing hot Tumblr garbage.
