Though a lot of people consider Star Wars: The Last Jedi to be an absolute travesty to the franchise, director Rian Johnson sticks by his work and is unapologetic to the haters. What's funny is, he's just shared this fun reaction thread to The Last Jedi from someone who seems to be watching the film for the first time.
Read it all the way through. It's worth it, I promise:
No one really knows who @vibeswithcisco really is, but a lot of Star Wars fans are already loving her (or his) reactions to The Last Jedi—specifically the cute nicknames that she's given the characters. You have Sunflower (Rey), Lovebug (Finn), Cinammon Roll (Rose), Hot Man Running (Poe), Baby Boy 2.0 (Kylo), and lots more. Basically the only character that didn't get a nickname was Luke.
After Kelly Marie Tran was bullied out of social media, there was a lot of self-reflection in the Star Wars community to check on the "toxic fandom". This thread is a great example of the positivity in the franchise we should see more of, and even if you don't like some things in the franchise, it doesn't mean you have to bully anyone who is showing appreciation. I think the great thing about Star Wars is that there's always something for everyone, no matter what age.
For now, everyone is excited for the last two months of the year which will see the release of The Mandalorian, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, and possibly LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.
Catch Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker when it hits theaters Dec. 20.
