Idk how TLJ can be viewed as a continuation of TFA when it barely keeps the same themes, all the characters act differently, and it barely picks up on any of the story threads TFA left off

Sometimes I see Luke Skywalker and I still get mad that Disney/Lucasfilm made me watch him die in TLJ with my own 2 eyes....like....the audacity still gets me from time to time.

tlj fans thinking tros is a bad movie makes me laugh so much bc tlj didn’t execute anything from tfa well and ended on a strange note so you really think tros was going to be able to do anything with the shitty set up tlj left it... the series has been doomed since tlj came out lol

Wait, I did not realize that TLJ had Yoda show up to give Luke a speech about how failure is good and okay, actually. 

I just--

Yoda?!

That green muppet bitch never learned from literally any failure! What! His solution to ruining a perfectly good Chosen One with his weird anti-attachment doctrine was to take that Chosen One’s son and apply the exact same philosophy, in the hopes that he’d kill the previous one! That is not exactly indicative of any kind of introspection, regarding failures. what

Black Panther was everything TLJ should have been:

Badass protagonist: T’Challa remains virtually the same from his previous appearances. Rey was NOT  the same character from TFA

The secondary character gets his/her due: Shuri was just perfect. Her genius saved T’Challa.

Finn unfortunately was not used as he SHOULD have been. He was used as a side character, mischaracterized, as was Poe.

The comic relief isn’t too overdone: Martin Freeman’s character was the boring white guy but wasn’t too interjected. Chewie went from being the sidekick and co-pilot we all know and love to comic relief. What a joke.

Cousin vs Cousin: T’Challa vs N’Jadaka. N’Jadaka battles his cousin for the legacy of their family, country, himself because he wants to show the world who Wakanda REALLY is, in a terrible imperialistic way. T’Challa wants to remained sectioned off from the rest of the world because he doesn’t want vibranium used the wrong way and has his heart in the right place. 

Rey should be the daughter of Luke Skywalker. This would partially explain her force powers but it would let her choose her own path. She would battle her cousin Kylo for the legacy of their family, and grandfather. Rey would represent Anakin, and Kylo, Vader. It would be the light of Anakin vs the dark of Anakin, only split into his grandchildren. IX would have the ultimate Skywalker faceoff where once again, the fate of the galaxy rests in the main Skywalker’s (Rey’s) hands. She’d have a purpose, more so than Kylo. Her uncle, aunt and father would be all gone, but she has her family in the Resistance now. This would be a perfect metaphor for Rey’s surname to not define her as who she is. 

Brilliant characterization and development: T’Challa is a stubborn king who at the end realizes Wakanda needs to aid the rest of the world. Rey, Finn and Poe get virtually no development in the film.

An antagonist who’s point of view we can see, but still despise: N’Jadaka or Erik Killmonger, as we know was born to N’Jobu, brother of T’Chaka. He learns of his Wakandan heritage and seeks to destroy his cousin because his uncle took his father away from him. We understand his point of view, but we do not sympathize with him, as his intentions are evil; Kylo Ren in TFA is a evil little brat who we KNOW murdered people, as evidenced by his killings of Lor San Tekka and Han Solo. All of a sudden in TLJ, we’re supposed to sympathize with his Neo-Nazi ways?
