that this isn’t concerning for, or isn’t seen as atypical for, other posters, is a big yikes
you should seek the counsel of a mental health professional dude. a person with whom you can talk and build a relationship and who can follow up with you and develop a therapy plan for you will be immensely helpful. barring that, logging off is always the correct answer. god bless.
tldr but counter-point: it’s actually the only good star wars movie
sorry for my rudeness, i’m on one, a bit.
i don’t think any of the synthetic computer battle are interesting, fast or slow; making the ships seem to go faster wouldn’t do anything for me at all.
what is interesting to me is a reflection on the themes and values that are part of the star wars films, and star wars fandom, and star wars as a cultural object, continually needing to be refashioned by capital. johnson’s movie (and to a lesser extent, abraham’s one prior to it (really through the creation of Kylo)) approaches these extratextual issues, and even though last jedi necessarily must end w/ an endorsement of the films and the viewing/consuming participants, it at least poses the question, why are we continuing to engage with this? what is the value in this? why don’t we, figuratively, take Rey/join Kylo and breakout of this tired, eternal framework, and go liberate the casino planet?
fwiw, i enjoyed/loved star wars and empire when i was a kid, and still feel those films have artistic value. but baby yoda, baby boba fett: even if it has period accurate space combat, it’s for babies.
