tldr but counter-point: it’s actually the only good star wars movie
The Last Jedi pissed off a bunch of redditors when it came out. These redditors went full on gamergate about it, they were pissed because it didn’t coddle them enough (and also because the movie is garbage).
Instead of spending like 10 minutes thinking through why it didn’t work as a film, their chud brainworms somehow mostly blamed women, sjws, and minorities. Also Rian Johnson, so at least they got that right.
It then became a thing to be reactive against the reaction. The majority of people who said the movie was bad were easy dunk target because most of them were bazingabrains speaking in chud tongues. Also they were debate bros and that made it really to upset them.
TL;DR: Contrarians being contrarian against a different kind of contrarian. More interest from everyone involved in that dynamic than the original media critique that originally set it off.
