[QUOTE="Cazza, post: 466060, member: 5725"] I think TFA and R1 were a lot easier to digest. They were both a lot more familiar and TFA in particular did play it safe (for a reason). TLJ has really pushed the envelope and Rian Johnson has definitely done his own thing. A few things were a bit jarring, such as Yoda, but I had to get it right in my head what I was watching. I was watching the slightly bonkers-yet-wise jedi master (in puppet form!) from ESB, not the oh-so-serious, backwards talking, CGI Yoda from the prequels and The Clone Wars. A lot of people are out of their comfort zone with what RJ has done here. I actually felt quite challenged by what I was watching- continually questioning not just the plot, but a lot of the aesthetics as well. I can't wait to see it again. I thoroughly enjoyed it first time, but TFA & R1 took 2 viewings- I suspect this may take 3- to make a properly informed judgement. There was so much more going on in this than the other two. Things that were unexpected, exciting and questionable. There's no doubt that it's a spectacular popcorn movie with depth, but I think a lot of die hard fans are going to find it too tough to swallow this brave new direction. [/QUOTE]
