Why The Last Jedi Became Star Wars' Most Controversial Movie

Summary Star Wars: The Last Jedi is undoubtedly the most divisive movie in the franchise, and there are several reasons as to why. Upon the release of the film in 2017, many were excited to see how Star Wars' sequel trilogy would continue.

It Was The First Star Wars Movie With Luke Skywalker Since 1983 Luke Skywalker's Storyline Has Persisted As The Last Jedi's Most Prevalent Criticisms Close Without a shadow of a doubt, the handling of Luke Skywalker is what has caused, is still causing, and will continue to cause many to despise Star Wars: The Last Jedi. In live-action Star Wars, The Last Jedi was the first time Luke Skywalker had a proper story in over 40 years.

Related Luke Skywalker's Death In Star Wars: The Last Jedi Was Perfect Many fans might think Luke Skywalker's Star Wars death in The Last Jedi was weak, but it was a poetically fitting end to the character's arc. Rian Johnson's Choices Were Controversial The Last Jedi's Subversiveness Naturally Proved To Be An Element Many Did Not Agree On Close Speaking of The Last Jedi's subversiveness, which the trailers did not reflect, many choices made by writer-director Rian Johnson received criticism. As alluded to, his handling of Luke Skywalker - from the character's guilt and shame to his exile - was one such choice.

Another primary source of post-Force Awakens theories centered around the mysterious Supreme Leader Snoke. The villainous figure was only teased in Episode VII, leading many to expect his storyline to be fleshed out in The Last Jedi. Whether he was a Sith, a disciple of Palpatine, or Darth Plagueis reborn was expected to be answered one way or another in The Last Jedi. Instead, Snoke died.
