The Last Jedi's Rian Johnson Wore Porg Cufflinks to the Oscars


Star Wars didn't have a huge presence in the Oscars, with The Rise of Skywalker only getting a few predictable nominations. Rian Johnson, however, was a different story since his acclaimed Knives Out actually got a couple of big nods, even if it didn't end up winning any Oscars. Still, fans of The Last Jedi were stoked to see Johnson rock some awesome-looking Porg cufflinks.

In an NSFW tweet, Johnson clearly didn't care about what others would think about him putting on these adorable cufflinks and he's totally right to think that way. After all, The Oscars want to feel more important than they actually are, even though they often give the awards to the wrong movies, like last year's Green Book incident. While they mostly hit it out of the park this year by giving Parasite almost-everything, it still wasn't a home run since films like Little Women and Uncut Gems were snubbed big time.

Apologies for the tangent, Johnson's cufflinks are adorable and more fans should like The Last Jedi. Say what you will about it but the movie is much better than The Rise of Skywalker and you won't see a lot of people complain about that.

Johnson now has multiple franchises to work on, including a Star Wars trilogy that will shake up what fans are familiar with and Knives Out, which could get multiple sequels after an acclaimed opening installment.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is now available on Blu-Ray.
