I think Spock is about 3 days away from penning an anonymous #MeToo article about the abuse this movie put him through.

Way worse than any of the Prequels.....

I think you're forgetting how bad the prequels actually were.
Even if I didn't like The Last Jedi, I still wouldn't understand how you could come to that conclusion.
You may not like the story, but at least it was competently made. The prequels had neither.

Meesa free da horsies. Meesa no likey da rich people

At first I thought Rose was a pointless character.
But thinking about it, I realised that she is the one that shows why someone would join the Rebellion to begin with. While some people see that casino planet as a fantastic place to have fun and win some money, she only sees corruption and the thankless toilers who work hard so that the rich can fill their pockets even more. The last scene shows that this movie was about the Rebellion, and why people choose to fight in it. That little kid meets Rose and can now look up into the sky and hope to one day fight for the downtrodden, just like her.

I guess it makes sense that the people I hear complain about that subplot and her character the most are conservatives. The uproar over "SJW's ruining Star Wars" because of the use of female and non-white actors has been disgraceful though.

Geez, they pulled it from cinemas after TWO WEEKS. Not only was the China pandering a completely ridiculously uninteresting and pointless subplot, it seems to have turned off the target audience.

What a disaster.

Gee they should have realised getting vietnamese actresses to pander to china was a bad idea.

Too bad she needed some charisma to convey those emotions to the audience.
