So I actually do like a lot of the Disney stuff (I get enough hate please noooooo) but Rogue One I cannot stand and don't understand why it exists. The whole movie was justified off of a single line from A New Hope and the ending of Rogue One changes the opening of A New Hope in a bizarre way. Went from him chasing her down to her literally being like 15 feet from him as he watches her leave and follows her easily. Not necessarily bad because Leia bold faced lying to Vader and giving no fucks is kind of hysterical knowing he just watched her 10 seconds ago but odd.

Andor... I watched the first episode and was interested to an extent but I think I'd have to push myself through a few episodes to really get into it. I've been in stress mode the past few months so just rewatching what I like over and over again. I've seen Penn and Teller so many fucking times in the past 3 weeks...

Interesting that we both dislike Rogue One, but I also don't like anything else recent. That being said, I'm always down for some Penn and Teller, those guys are great

The Last Jedi is probably my favorite Star Wars movie. What I was surprised to find out recently was that on Rotten Tomatoes, the critic review of TLJ is high but audience is low. Bizarrely, it's the dead opposite with Rise of Skywalker. That confuses me considering I've never heard anyone other than myself say a single good thing about it.

And hell yes Penn and Teller. Although Teller does look like Yoda lately...

it's so weird to me that the hate for TLJ (easily the best of the sequels, and imo better than any of the prequels) is so strong but the reaction to and criticism for RoS (the worst SW movie to date by a WIDE margin) are and remain extremely tepid.

Also they did my girl Rose Tycho dirty af and I'm still salty to this day.
