  • If you've seen The Last Jedi, you may be wondering how some of those big decisions were made. Well, take a look inside the pitch meeting to find out! Subscribe to our channel: goo.gl/ho3Hg6
    The Last Jedi has stormed into theaters. The film is certainly one of the most complex films set in a galaxy far, far away so you’ll be forgiven if you didn’t catch everything on the first viewing. There’s a ton going on in the background that you may not have even noticed and we’re here to help you find them. For example, did you catch that Rey stole the Jedi books? Blink and you’ll miss it! Luke’s final reveal was actually telegraphed well in advanced in a masterful way. Supreme Leader Snoke actually has a piece of bling that harkens back to Rogue One! Speaking of bling, what were those dice that we saw a few times? Luke has a stash of trinkets at the tree on Ahch-To, one of them ties directly to Star Wars Battlefront 2 while another may be a reference to the beloved Knights of the Old Republic video games. We get our first look, sort of, at the first Jedi while at the temple with Luke and Rey. Did you think Rian Johnson forgot about the famous line “I have a bad feeling about this?” Think again! We got to see the old X Wing used in a very interesting way and get a call back to a character from Rogue One in the form of a ship. Of course, being Star Wars, there are a ton of cameos in the film that you likely didn’t catch either, some of them being quite obvious! So strap in for the video and enjoy the ride!

      Hey, SR, as much as I loved this video, you missed one point. The one where Luke stood up to The Emperor and Darth Vader, the two most evil men in the Galaxy at the time, and he wouldn't kill his father because he saw the little bit of good in him, but somehow in this movie, he has a "thought" of killing his nephew because he sensed evil... His nephew.. that was nowhere near Darth Vader's Calibur. And also it's more than I thought.. a thought it just thinking it, he went through 3 steps. The thought, turning on the lightsaber, and then partially lifting it up to swing... That's more than just a thought. Lol, if you would've added that, it would've been perfect, but, it was still an almost perfect explanation of the movies flaws. Great job

      I like them. You folks seem to have it down.
      It does not matter if anyone is making anymore StarWars films to me. They will NEVER work under Disney, Kathy, JarJar and Rian Doucher's command.
      StarWars was ruined and killed.
      Should never made another after the 80's.

      Lucas made us wait 19 years after Palpatine's first appearance before we finally began to learn his backstory... 26 years to see him ultimately corrupt Anakin... 29 years from his first mention in A New Hope, from start to finish. So, ummm.... did we really expect all of the answers we wanted in 2 years?

      You realise that this is probably the most accurate interpretation of what happened, don't you?
      I make films myself (short ones only so far) and I spotted that the shot of Luke vanishing was a last minute addition, roughly inserted. I also remembered Mark Hamill's face the night of the first premiere and realised what the expressions were on his face - the first was disbelief (otherwise known as 'denial') and the second, directed clearly in Rian Johnson's direction, was anger. Denial and anger are the first two stages of grief.
      Why would he be grieving is the question you should ask yourself. If he already knew Luke was going to die, why grieve for his character? Unless - shock horror - he didn't know...

Bits were crap but i was so happy it wasnt prequel cheese, all cgi, the fight seemed cool on a first watch. Was trying so hard to just enjoy star wars again. But i noticed it was a while before i wanted to watch it, or FA again... and that 2nd viewing just opened up so many questions. The veil slipped. This isnt what a classic movie feels like. My mind just went into overdrive picking at it...wow. What have they done 😬. Then you find some lengthy youtube massacres of it and its just ... theres no opinion in it. Its pure fact. Its fundamentally, catastrophically terrible from the ground up. Some surface level flash and pretty images over a genuine train wreck. Ive only just bothered to watch Rise....

      ​@@randomsam949 There is a WHOLE LOT of agenda in TLJ. As more time goes by, I am beginning to think a motivated group of people deliberately trashed Star Wars. I know Disney paid 4 billion dollars for the IP. So, on a macro level, Disney wanted it to succeed. But, on a micro level, the artists and storywriters they hired? I think they had a (I know this buzzword is overused but it fits) "toxic" opinion of Star Wars. They wanted to tear down Luke Skywalker. They wanted to get rid of the space battles and the light saber battles and attack the concept of "the hero's journey". From a narrative point of view the movie is a near incoherent mess. I think its pretty clear that taking shots at the image of the "powerful white male leader" (both hero and villain) was far more important than a coherent story. I am increasingly convinced the whole project was a mean spirited exercise in cultural vandalism. It was a mean joke played on all of us.

Disrespecting the beloved characters and respected actors, who had to spend their last years filming this trilogy and a total waste of their limited time. I think that this rises above the actual content of the films. (To all the fans defending Disney still and attacking people who are upset.) This whole trilogy has been a tale of pure incompetence and blind greed.

      Rise of Skywalker didn’t prove TFA mystery box was empty. It was because TLJ destroyed so many questions (without setting up anything) that it was difficult to salvage.

Now unlike with Yoda, there was pressure to let him save the day at least once, so they struck a compromise.

    You also have to remember that Rey's internal conflict in Force Awakens was that she hoped that her family would come back for her, even though she didn't really believe it. She never had any expectation or reason to believe that they weren't "nobodies." In Last Jedi when Kylo Ren tells her that they were nobodies she should have just said "Why would I have thought otherwise?" Rian Johnson got confused between the fans thinking her parents were somebody important and Rey thinking it.

      The Phantom Menace did that a long time ago. Disney is merely painting a corpse to make it look nice for the funeral. I have to say they did a good job. Star Wars looks like it's only sleeping there in the coffin.

      KlingonCaptain You’ve got to be joking, Phantom Menace was way better than The Last Jedi. At least it had a clear cut storyline and introduced the characters really well, laying the foundations for the next 5 movies. What the heck was this one? No clear storyline, useless character introductions just for the sake of getting an easier entry into Chinese theatres, cheesy Disney humour and pretty much everything else mentioned in the video ^^ I reckon The Force Awakens wasn’t that bad but with this movie Disney has, as the kind sir above has already highlighted, killed an entire saga.

      The Force Awakens was worse in my opinion. This film has illogical writing, but at least it didn't leave me empty like the previous one did.

      You have to realize that people change because of what happens to and around them. It makes Luke's characters very human and relatable, he's fallible like the rest of us. It makes for a good change with everyone else being so headstrong like Yoda & Obi-wan etc.
      Edit- The writing isn't perfect I know, but this is a trilogy that should have been planned FIRST then executed by the same writer/director. I can only imagine what Trevorrow had in mind for this movie...nonetheless I enjoyed this movie. Comparison of anything can ruin your enjoyment and/or happiness.
