| arcaneguyver said: I find the effect TLJ has had on my workplace to be interesting. The merch just collects dust; admittedly, it didn't sell like wildfire with TFA (due to people wanting Rey stuff and just not having it) and nobody wanted action figures or clothing for RO, but there's plenty of Rey stuff available now. Discussions about TLJ are apologetic or frustrated if they even happen at all, whereas the previous two still had some hype and energy in the somewhat common discussions months after release, despite some criticism of redundancy or CG Tarkin. Perhaps it's some dark wishful thinking (or, more likely, simple confirmation bias), but it definitely feels like the well has been poisoned. |
Thats a very interesting point of view. Many thanks.
The impression I have is that the movie is already forgotten. It did not create any sense of marvel with people to discuss it months after the release. Excepts for discussion like this is it failed or not. But on topics such as how the next movie is going to be, how will Leia die, that will Ray do, what about Finn? It seems nobody is even bothered to discuss it.
