Really, so because I enjoyed the movie I'm not a Star Wars fan? That's nonsense. The problem is that people with a negative view of the movie are quicker to express this, that has always been the case.

The biggest problem with this movie, I believe, is that many fans analysed it to death and so, they didn't get the movie they expected. For me, that's a sign Rian Johnson is willing to take needed risks with the franchise and if he has to upset some fans that still plot characters by power level on a graph, so be it.

In this day and age, everything that's really, really popular (and there's nothing more popular than SW tbh) tends to have a polarized reception. That's not surprising. TFA will have a better reception because they played safe. I find really funny than when they tried to do something different, everyone was like: "THIS IS NOT STAR WARS". And when TFA came: "THIS IS JUST A REHASHED EPISODE IV". What I mean is that it's impossible to please everyone. I loved the movie, and I can assure you I'm a huge SW fan. And I wanted exactly what they did. A shake up in the franchise model. Something different but great.

You can enjoy what you like, but I just used your example which basically dismissed people that didn't like it as a band of hardcore naysayers. Isn't that nonsense?

The biggest problem with this movie is that many fans, who grew up watching the original trilogy, got disappointed with the long awaited prequels, are now not taken seriously anymore because The Star Wars fandom has suddenly grown by bandwagoners who don't even know basic trivia of the originals don't care that Disney has made something that has gone off from what made Star Wars, well, Star Wars, are just cheerleading these films with all their might because that's the cool thing you know. To sum up my long sentence, Star Wars fans with real grievances are ridiculed for basically being passionate about a well loved franchised. Fuck them for being whiny nerds right?

That's bollocks. To make a very quick example (looking at your avatar): Mario Odyssey was really positively received from both professional critics and general audiences alike. Especially from their own fans (Mario is the most popular video game franchise btw).

The Last Jedi isn't that. In fact that's where the audience's mixed reaction seems to be coming from. The biggest complaint against The Force Awakens was that is basically a A New Hope remake. Say what you will about The Last Jedi. It is it's own movie. It takes a lot risks. I think those risks are causing the divisiveness.

Yeah, I really didn't mean to generalize, but it sounded like I was doing that, so I apologize for that. I'd say that happens in a lot of cases, not every case possible. It's pretty hard to please your most hardcore fandom and the casual crow, so in some cases, specially when the franchise is widely popular, is pretty, pretty hard. I must say Nintendo did a ace work with SMO, but it seems it's not the case with The Last Jedi. But, well, I thought it was an A+ movie, so in the end I'd say that's what matters to me.
