What would you do differently with Star Wars (The Last Jedi in particular)? How would you "fix" it?

Add a side-plot about a male character who does everything right. Make it inconsequential, so that smart people realize it is a joke, while the idiots who complained endlessly have something to like.

I actually like how reckless TLJ is in that way, really not giving a fuck about those idiot's sentiments. But sometimes you have to dangle a key to calm down the baby.

I'd chain JJ Abrahams to a chair in a basement with a lion and only let him out after he gave me a consistent test script for three movies that doesn't retread the OT or piss on it.

>defending a shitty movie this much

why did this movie make normalfags defend it so much

Nobody knows what they actually wanted. TLJ wasn't bad at all and set the third film on a good direction.

Disney probably spent money on astroturf to try to damage-control.

>Sheev comes back
>holds a 20 minute speech about how the rebellion made things worse for everyone and that they are right back where they started
>also reminds people that he was voted into office
>everyone who isn't a retard agrees
>The Resistance is outlawed, every time they even want to come near a planet they get lasered and everyobe lives happy ever after

Disney cucked the last Jedi so bad I just try not to think about it at this point.

Well one it's not normalfags. It's libcunts. But to answer your question, Us versus Them mentality. "We" don't like the movie therefore "They" have to love it.

Because normalfags have no taste. They need to be told what's popular. Star Wars was popular and socially progressive hence they have to make sure to tell people they like it and it's normal to like it. They also go on social media to make sure to tell people they like Star Wars so they seem likeable and trendy.

Comics like this pop up because they think Star Wars is still popular and only weird people dislike it. So they try to make fun of the weird people to gain more attention and likeability with whoever is following them. Because they think the majority will like it because they perceive Star Wars as popular still.

They're starting to realize that not many people like Star Wars anymore and now they're finally shutting up about it.

If Rian was doing this one as well, he could have pulled shit like this to do a good old subversion

>normalfags defend it
99.9% of people who watched TLJ thought is was fine and never thought of it since

lol

>Tries to be facetious
>Draws an unironically better movie idea

It had a bunch of virtue signaling both on and off screen. So they feel obligated to defend it. At least they stopped saying it "subverts your expectations", like that makes it automatically good for some reason. A 90 minute close up of literal shit would have subverted expectations too, that wouldn't make it good.

Lmao that's just not true dipshit. Normies grew up watching star wars too, and many of them knew it was shit.

It's not normies. Normies either didn't like it or don't care for it. I went to see it with Normie friends and they agreed it was shit, except for a girl who argued it wasn't *that* bad.

How do none of the characters in the comic look anything close to the actual actors?

>Because normalfags have no taste. They need to be told what's popular.
You do realize that you are basically talking about McDonald's, right?

If SW was about taste, it would be Seven Samurai and nobody had seen it.

Of course I did. I didn't had any ideas what the story should be, but i certainly expected a logical movie without galaxy sized plot holes, and franchise incoherent rules.

McDonalds isn't popular because people think they should like it or by just riding off of its existing popularity. It's popular because it's fast, inexpensive, consistent and convenient. McDonalds is unironically a very good service for the specific thing it seeks to do.

Just do heir to the empire.
OT characters get shifted up a notch in responsibility, new characters take over their book roles, and it gets reworked a bit so the time/character specific bits are either cut or moulded

>Fix Star Wars
Disney is never letting it go so there's no saving it. Other than that. The way you fix Star Wars is declare that the OT is the only thing canon, fuck the rest, and never touch Star Wars again.

This might be confusing to you, but the vast majority of people have never seen a SW movie.

Of those who did, the vast majority didn't care too much about it.

Finally, those who did, most of them grew out of it, as you do with childhood affections.

Star Wars isn't popular because people think they should like it or by just riding off of its existing popularity. It's popular because it's fast, inexpensive, consistent and convenient. Star Wars is unironically a very good service for the specific thing it seeks to do.

none of that is true though. Aside from consistent, since they keep reusing the same plot

This would've actually been a phenomenal plot idea for TLJ actually, minus the Sheev return

>The First Order claims to be an organization of peacekeepers that brought stability back to regions affected by poverty or discontent after the Empire's collapse, and has support from much of the Outer Rim as a result, which is where they got most of their soldiers from
>Claims their forces, outfitted with only old Empire gear for militia purposes, were assaulted and brutally wiped out in a surprise attack by a radical branch of the new Government who also enacted a coup and destroyed several planets in a bid to rouse the galaxy against them and elect Leia Organa as the new Chancellor, as Palpatine had done with Order 66 only a few decades ago
>Gains the support of the Republic as a governmental force to stomp out the new Rebels that threaten galactic stability, with Hux and Kylo being named official generals
>Only renowned Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker can convince the government of the truth and restore Leia's name before it's too late and the First Order can worm its way back into real power

Too bad we can't have that because it might portray the villains as competent and perhaps a little morally grey, and might've also subverted our expectations by returning to political intrigue after the Prequels

>fast
wrong. MCU is in the same sphere and releases content far quicker
>inexpensive
wrong. Films and merchandise are massively overinflated
>consistent
apart from using the same plot, wrong
>convenient.
unless you're pirating it, wrong

Think before you use playground tactics.

Dumb nigger we are talking about people that watched TLJ. Go back to fucking elementary school reading comprehension

Don't know how broke your ass is, but most people go to the movies for a cheap fun night out, that doesn't take too much planning, yet offers a somewhat reliable level of entertainment.
SW is a pretty good product that way. Even lesser installments like Solo or Rogue One you won't regret seeing, even though they won't do too much for you either.

It's why DC has failed so spectacularly. They did not deliver an entertaining experience even on the most basic level.

oooh, feisty. Seems like we found the smartest guy on the board.

Of course you are right - all normies have watched Star Wars. All of it. And they loved it. Even TLJ, but only because Disney exploited their naivete. Those poor idiots.
How fortunate that there is this small minority of connoisseurs, such as yourself, who relentlessly warn the unsuspecting public about the glaring flaws in their quasi-religious texts.
Shine on good sir, shine on.

The first film should have been about the first order's rise to power instead of just totally reversing the ending of the OT offscreen and then rehashing ANH with no explanation to actually justify the sequal trilogy existing. Then the sequel to that wouldn't have been such a train wreck which had to pick up all the pieces that hack JJ left behind.

TLJ was trash but it was set up to fail from the start. RJ is just a fall-guy, JJ is the real hack.

Turn key villains into members of the Knights of Ren. Captain Phasma, Del Torro, General Hux. Remove all the things that makes Hux look inept or dumb, he should be Kylo's greatest rival and will be the final villain of the next movie. Hux should be weaseling his way into Snoke's good graces.
Add Poe to the Finn story, pink hair takes command and is in contact with Poe. In fact sending the small group is her idea, despite Poe's demotion she recognises him as a guy who could get things done. He wants Finn to join him, and Rose is a stowaway, shaken by her sister's death she wants to get off the ship. She doesn't start idolising Finn, she grows to love him as he teaches her to stop running and that her sister's sacrifice was noble.
Remove all the unneeded comedy from the Rey stuff. Luke decides to train Rey when he hears that Han was killed by Kylo, since he caused Kylo to turn he sees the death of his closest friend as a result of his actions. Rey fails every "resist the darkside" test and leaves when she senses Poe and Finn in danger on the imperial ship.
Finn doesn't attempt a suicide run, instead it's Rose. Finn saves her, not because of some bullshit about love, but because he knows her sacrifice would be futile, the laser would tear through her speeder and the door.
Luke isn't a hologram, he is actually there. When Kylo orders everyone to open fire Luke stops every bolt and redirects them, mirroring Kylo at the beginning of the previous movie but showing how much more powerful Luke is now he's reconnected to the force. Like before, the fight doesn't have any lightsaber clashes, Luke is entirely defensive and dodges all of Kylo's wild swings with ease. Kylo is frustrated and questions why Luke isn't fighting back. Luke just says he needs to distract Kylo for long enough. After Rey has escaped with the resistance, Luke sacrifices himself like Obi Wan.
The sequel bait at the end of the movie will be Hux on Snoke's throne.

I'd scrap star wars altogether at this point, there's too many bad movies and no goodwill left.

If I had to do a new trilogy: 1-2 years after Endor. The empire is splintered and stressed as Moffs vie for the empty throne for a myriad of reasons. The New Republic isn't a galaxy spanning force but it's on the upswing and is exploiting the imperial civil war effectively: it will only be a matter of time until they win. Against this backdrop a hidden force user emerges seeking a macguffin to give them the power to take over the galaxy, and a mixed group of a rebel, an imperial, some kind of smuggler and whatever comic relief ad necessary are inadvertently brought together to stop the emergent.

I'm repeatedly amazed by the retardedness of posters on this board and you fit right in.

TLJ damage was more than palpable, look at how solo failed. Nobody gave a shit even though solo wasn't actually bad.

It couldnt be fixed after tfa dumb fuck

Old literal boomer women at work were complaining about it. You're a retarded faggot.

best part about this comic is both sides thinking rian johnson was responsible for all the things that happened in TLJ, and wasn't just there to shoot the footage.

>Even lesser installments like Solo or Rogue One
Nu wars isnt star wars faggot.

You realize you're talking to some tumblr twat right?

More and more often I am it seems. What's the deal with that? Fucking Normies were supposed to stay on /pol/ when they invaded.

>Normies
you're one of them faggot

>Fucking Assmad: The Comic
It's OK not to like The Last Jedi, Mr. Rottkamp.

cant think of a better example of "defend this and you are a tool" than this movie.

I mean almost everything is up for debate and might have some good and bad sides, even the prequels have some value as a source of memes but this movie is just a joyless failure and shouldnt exist.

You'd have to fix TFA first with a complete rewrite.
Disney, Lucasfilm, and the producers, directors, screen writers, and story team have fucked it all up.
Fixing it would require reincorporating most of the EU. Some of it could have been retconned, but most of it is plenty fine if not great material to serve for backstory. Luke had made great strides in personal growth and in building up the Jedi order, but also faced some hardships in losing his wife and nephew and seeing his older nephew turn to the dark side before being defeated by his niece. But through all that, he led the new Jedi order through two major wars and one of them had involved opposing his nephew.

Write the plot points better is a lazy answer but it is genuinely what needs to be done.

I actually like Rian Johnson as a director and writer but he is so dependent on stylization that putting him in charge of writing a series like Star Wars is fucking baffling. If you actually look at the plot points, on paper it's not that bad. It is taking the series places it never went before but Rian can't fucking write normal shit. So his follow up to Abram is a mess of shoddy execution and stilted actor directing.

So you had Poe and the godawful interaction with pink haired whatever. Rey and Kylo kind of awkwardly staring at each other after a whole hour of Like Skywalker being weird and wooden. Whatever the fuck Fin was up to.

Tag him as an idea guy but give the script to a journeyman writer who produces shit on time that reads well and punch it up like mad.

It's called "anecdotal evidence". But I like how defensive you get.

Not sure why you still try to make a point. Once you have shown yourself to be an utter little shit, people do not care what you have to say.

I would have let the series die with the prequels.

I'm so fucking sick of Star Wars.

Not him but his anecdotal evidence is more useful than just made up bullshit stats like "99.9% of people who watched TLJ thought is was fine and never thought of it since."

They are Disneymoms
