I'm not crazy about TLJ (I had mostly negative feelings on the first viewing, but I liked it more after a second viewing), but I'm happy it got Oscar nominations if for not other reason because it will piss off the more annoying TLJ haters (by which I mean not necessarily everyone who didn't like the film, but the people who just can't shut the f**k up about how they did't like the film).

It's so "deep", "edgy", and "subverts expectations". |

Do you think the critics will get nervous and change their minds like they did for TPM? Probably. At some point they will have to notice all the wacky flaws in the movie. I think TLJ will be most famous in the future for goofy things like Luke milking the sea cow, the porgs bouncing off the windows in the Falcon, flying Leia, squirting Finn, and CGI horse-dogs. |

It's so "deep", "edgy", and "subverts expectations". I've never heard anyone call it better. But I have heard it compared to ESB, for those very reasons. ESB is practically the anti-ANH, the same way this one is the anti-TFA. |

You win at life!!! It's the depth to which you love it. People can love it, but some level of ignorance to the source material, and ignorance to the state of the franchise has to be actively massaging that love. |
