I just watched The Last Jedi. I haven’t watched it since it originally came out, and while I didn’t hate it when it came out, it was so different from my expectations that I was a little disappointed.
Watching it now, for the second time, I actually think it’s a very clever way to take the story forward and I really enjoyed it.
Seeing it a second time, I don’t think Luke’s character is mishandled; I actually think it’s very believable and quite a powerful message throughout the film.
I’m looking forward to watching The Rise of Skywalker, which I enjoyed more the first time I saw it, so it’ll be interesting to see how I feel about it now.
