The Last Jedi
Even before Star Wars: Episode VII – The Last Jedi was released, it was announced that Rian Johnson would write and direct a new Star Wars trilogy after Episode IX. So, everyone was excited about last year’s release.
Surprisingly, The Last Jedi was even more divisive than the first J.J. Abrams-directed Star Wars movie, mainly because of the way it handled the character Luke Skywalker (even Mark Hamill said that he didn’t recognize the The Last Jedi’s Luke).
Despite some mind-boggling scenes, Rian Johnson’s The Last Jedi answered some burning questions and moved the franchise a bit further ahead toward an apparently explosive conclusion. Rey is now almost complete as a character, and Kylo Ren is the best antagonist this new trilogy could have had. J.J. Abrams will conclude the trilogy in 2019.
