Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I think Star Wars: The Last Jedi is the best of the Star Wars sequel trilogy. (pawb.social)

I think this is an unpopular opinion, at least among my star wars friends it is, but I genuinly think that The Last Jedi is better than The Force Awakens. I think it's more interesting, I think that the visuals are cool, I like the music more. Now I dont think its great, it has a ton of problems, and it probably has the worst fight choreography, i dont like how they portrayed Luke Skywalker, and I think that it was dumb that Holdo didnt tell Poe what her plan was.

But TLJ feels more unique and I absolutely love Kylo Ren in this movie, and I like Rey, I think she was done best in this movie. TFA was just kind of boring imo.

Edit: Mind you, I still think that all the movies in this trilogy are pretty crap. This one is just the one I dislike the least overall, ALTHOUGH, it probably ruined the trilogy the most, storywise.

That is NOT a high bar to clear, but yes. It's the only one that had any actual interesting point to make.

Force Awakens could have so easily made some points about how complacency creates the conditions for fascism to rise again but instead we just see science crying as planets we've never heard of or seen get blown up.

I will give the writers this, they did accidentally turn Star Wars into a series about how liberalism is doomed to create the conditions for fascism and that's neat.
