This, but I'd take it further: The entire movie was a storytelling disaster, and the Kylo/Rey scenes were the only saving grace that even made it watchable. Entire film was a train wreck in terms of execution.https://twitter.com/HannahGraceLong/status/1022305730706190336 …

Oof. Love your Jazz takes but this is just wrong, man! As someone posted below, read
@FilmCritHULK column. IMHO, Last Jedi might end up being considered the best Star Wars film ever. http://observer.com/2018/07/film-crit-hulk-the-beautiful-ugly-and-possessive-hearts-of-star-wars/ …2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

1. My stock response to tweets like this: There's no such thing as being wrong about something that's 100% subjective. 2. Sorry I don't have time to read like 15k words, but my criticisms aren't based on any other commentary. I've seen virtually none. Not a mainstream fan.

I tried to get through parts of that article (it's incredibly jumbled and long-winded, no offense meant) - none of my criticisms were touched on. I just don't think it's a well-made/written film.(BTW I agree that the VERY BROAD overall direction it ended with was fine).

I'll happily accept long-winded, but the different sections all come together to an end point. And If I had a dime for every time someone said something wasn't well-made / written but had no idea how to explain why / what good writing is in comparison, I would have many dimes.

And in you say none of your criticisms are touched on, but I literally EXACTLY touch on your aforementioned criticisms re: the point of poe / rose / finn, etc. Next time, read the freaking article before you decide what is and isn't in it. Because this is inane.

Lollll ok bro I said "no offense meant" but if you want to get snarky....you wrote like 2,500 words on "here's why it's okay to not be mad about Star Wars" before you even got into your point, but you want to get bitchy at ME for not reading on after that? Lmaoooooo

Ah yes the "no offense meant" before saying something mean defense. Which is also inane. This has nothing to do with snarkiness, dude, but abject clarity. Your response belies your intention. You said the article didn't do X. It did X. That's on you. Sorry you don't like reading.

It did X in 16,000 words (I'll take your word for it lol). It could have done it in a lot less, I can tell you that just from reading literally the most drawn-out intro I've seen in non-fiction all year long. That's your fault, not mine.

Yeah, everything you think you know? You don't. Good luck out there. I really don't have time for someone who doesn't understand anything about me or how my writing works and wants to pee on my leg and tell me it's raining. Goodbye.
