This particular movie is only drumming up so much attention because it’s a Star Wars movie.
Warwick Davis shared his thoughts on the fan division over The Last Jedi to the Metro (via The List) and reminded fans that Star Wars is meant to be a piece of entertainment and escapism above all else.
While this writer would say that people not liking the movie is what’s preventing them from being entertained, Davis is certainly correct that movies — especially Star Wars movies — are meant to just be a good time.
He also said that every movie technically divides people on opinion, and that’s just the way it is.
