I don't get why some are so defensive about this movie.. I mean I get the negative talk about the film for the most part because people are genuinely frustrated with what they saw and are venting - but people who like it, what's the point? Are you trying to validate your own enjoyment of this film? Who cares? If you like it, just watch and enjoy it and let those who don't have their opinions. It's like they're trying to convince themselves by trying to convince others.

I don't think I've ever seen a film so passionately defended before that was so hated by many. The prequels never even received close to this level of damage control and TLJ was arguably worse. I don't get why it's suddenly happening now.. Makes me wonder, especially considering it's owned by such a large corporation like Disney...

Alot of it is  people just being loyal to a brand because it's theirs, so they'll defend it regardless. Some trekkies have been doing that with that new show. I like star wars as an IP but I started to lose interest in it with the prequels and the new films have finally killed my interest. I think it lost what makes it star wars, it's just a cash cow now. 

if someone likes it then they should watch and enjoy it then leave it at that.
