Leia flying thru space Rose Tico Phasmas demise Canto bite Knights of ren being pointless Porgs Lack of R2D2 Yodas scene in last Jedi Finn constantly screaming “Rey” C3POs death when R2D2 has everything backed up Richard E Grant cameo
Positives Kylo Rey Poe Chewy Snoke C3PO Palpatine Babu Frick Adrian Edmondson Han Solo Luke vs Kylo Hux
Poe joking with Hux Luke and the lightsaber Much of Canto Bight Ackbar’s death Leia’s flight Luke nearly killing Ben DJ Maz in TLJ Knights of Ren, teased in TFA, not in TLJ, poor in TROS Rey’s training (powers without) Rey’s parents Jedi library Yoda - look, feel, words All the main guys being idiots in TLJ, every mission a failure Monsters and aliens on Han’s ship Starkiller Base destroying a solar system (whole scene) Build up in TFA, tear down in TLJ Too many death stars Emperor’s return Rey Palpatine Chewie fake death Sinking sand scene Finn’s confession, or lack of Rose’s arc, or lack of Porgs

oh yeah i forgot bout how lame was everything in Canto Bight, how lame was fucking phasma and the knights of ren....that scene with Hux doing Hitler jesus so fucking lame.
Both c3po and chewie´s fake deaths were sooooooo embarrassing...they lasted for like 2 seconds.
Maz is the lamest new character i would say...it was so awful even those guys knew it and forgot about it.

You guys are just making long lists of things you didn't like. Most of those aren't truly embarrassing. They're just decisions you wouldn't have made.
TFA: Chewy not hugging Leia. TLJ: Leia's space walk was up there. But honestly, I don't think we're owed an apology for anything in this movie. TROS: No one gives a shit that C3PO's gonna die. Finn leads liberated Stormtoopers on a mission to kill more Stormtroopers.

I don't know if its embarrassing but not having the the OT cast have a scene together seems like a mistake to me but I guess the point was to kill the past. Modern franchise building is tearing down the legacy characters to build up the avatars I mean characters that the new stewards of the franchise created. It's not just Star Wars. I can't wait to watch the new LOTR show and see some new character stop Elrond from helping Sauron or some shit.

I picked the most egregious, apology-needed moments from each film in a thread where the average list length is 13 items.

Embarrassing to who, exactly?
Why would the viewer need to be embarrassed about anything in them? Sure, stuff they don’t like, but embarrassed? The viewer didn’t make the movies.
I guess that's up to who's posting.
I put up things that I thought the filmmakers should be embarrassed about, but it could certainly be things that make you embarrassed to be a Star Wars fan.

The main things for me were:
Chewie's "death" Palpatine Poe's jokes another Death Star introducing interesting characters that went nowhere. Phasma, Knights of Ren, DJ, Zorii Bliss, Snoke (lol awful arc)
And then of course the lack of flow between the movies

Ok, in that context, you kinda make sense. But these are still just lists of things people don’t like about them.
And never be embarrassed about stuff you like. If YOU like it, that’s all that matters. Fuck what other people think.

I personally don’t feel embarassed about liking Star Wars or these movies. I seldom feel embarassed on my own behalf at all.
Still I think it’s fair to say there were embarassing things in these movies. It’s not about simply not liking this or that, but about those things being that bad.
