"Once Or Twice"
Not agreeing with anyone here, but Mark made it fairly clear before release, well before it actually, that he didnt agree with the way Luke was to be portrayed in TLJ. Theres a video of him somewhere on Youtube (if I find it I will link it) mentioning what he disagrees with and how he thought Jedi Luke should be portrayed. He has even come out and said he thought George Lucas had some good ideas that he thought would work too but Disney said no.
So I would say theres not much he can do now so will he say some niceties for the films sake and other actors in it, but its obvious he doesnt fully accept TLJ Luke
WHO CARES??? Haha you act like you and Mark Hamill are friends....I guess you are just an angry little person. The "Mark Hamill hates it" is SOO debunked like two weeks ago. Get your head out of the hole.
Oh and Alec Guiness HATED A New Hope....he thought it was trite and ridiculous.....does this validate you to hate the original Star Wars now? Because using your pathetic logic of letting others think for you...it seems you should hate it.
Gotta love opinions, esp when they coincide with the lead actor of the OT.
And if Disney tells you to shut your mouth for trash talking their movie, and since you signed that magical contract, you can't talk bad about the film like Mark was doing. Especially since he has an estimated earnings of high seven to low eight digit earnings from TLJ.

Lol. That’s just Harrison
I agree with two of your criticisms: Kylo’s face scar placement and Hux’s lamb chops. Everything else you listed was either false (Finn’s jacket) or up for interpretation in which you only choose the least charitable version.
What do you mean Kylo’s scar was healed? All scars were accounted for in his shirtless scene. Seems like he and Finn had some quality bacta time.
Kylo’s training was completed when he “killed” “Snoke” (what/ whover that was in the dreadnought throne room- I tend to think Ben is projecting him because he’s **** futs though it’s more plausible Snoke is still wherever TFA throne is and he was either projecting or mind-controlling Kylo, Rey, Hux and the Praetorian Guard. Either way, it’s very likely he/ it’s alive in some form). Snoke mutually projects Rey and Kylo knowing the relationship the’re forming. He knows exactly what his apprentice is planning when threatening to kill Rey. He believes Kylo’s training is complete when he takes control of the FO. Meanwhile, Snokes cooking up something with the Knights of Ren somewhere... this is my form of charitable speculation.
No issue with Hux salvaging that fleet on his way off Starkiller.
I don’t understand your issue with the Knights of Ren. Luke alludes to them when telling Rey the true story about his failure. I’m confident they’ll play a roll in 9.
He doesn’t... But I know that won’t make a difference. You don’t really care about that, do you? Gotta love opinions:
Exactly.
People don't want to believe Mark Hamil dislikes the movie, it shatters their perspective.
From what it looks like, it is you who can’t handle the fact that Mark Hamill thinks TLJ is ”an all-time GREAT” movie... That you can’t use him to validate your opinion anymore.
Here’s a good write-up of reasons why many embrace TLJ luke:
http://bigshinyrobot.com/60239/luke-skywalkers-arc-star-wars-last-jedi/
Disney came down on him after the movie bombed with fans and people made so many compilations that went viral of him talking bad about Disney and the movie.
Its pretty obvious Disney told him to stop talking smack about TLJ, vindicate the movie, and tweet that out.
Mark Hamil does not like TLJ and you guys know it.
Yeah, that’s exactly what you’re gonna have to, if you wanna use Mark Hamill like you do. And the unedited versions please. Not the ones put together by angry fans to validate their hate for TLJ: You know, the ones that made Hamill post the tweet above to clarify what he meant. So freakishly ugly to use a guy’s name like that. What is obvious to you is not relevant.
This.
So true. I mean, he didn't even strike down Emperor Palpatine at the end of ROTJ, because killing him out of anger would make him go to the Dark Side. He didn't even kill his father, who had actually done some really bad stuff. And Palps was WAY worse.
Oh, but my nephew who shows some Dark Side tendencies, yeah, I should kill him. He went to Vader and tried to convince him to change from the Dark back to the Light when there was barely any light in him. Now, why would he brandish his saber and actually thinks of killing Kylo. No only does he think of killing his nephew, but he ACTUALLY grabs his saber and is holding it out. There's a HUGE difference between a "fleeting thought" and actually starting to perform what you were thinking about.
Think of it this way: your boss just fired a good portion of your fellow co-workers, all because he is greedy and would rather get a fatter check at the end of the month. If you think in your head," man, the world would be better off with out this pathetic waste of space", that's fine. However, if you start to go and grab the stapler and get ready to actually kill him, that's too far.
I don't entirety disagree with Luke moping around, since whenever he fails hard, he does that. However, the whole "Imma kill my nephew because he is getting closer to the Dark Side and I can't reason with him like I did to my seemingly to-far-gone father" is just horrendous writing that defeats his character.

It was a similar moment to when he was about to take Vader out, but Palps started to laugh and snapped him out of it. If Palps could have kept quiet another 10 seconds.....

Nah, Luke wouldn't have done it either way
Original Video has been taken down. I wonder why...
Limber up before you start the mental gymnastics......
#NotMyLuke
Umm... no? He never says he dislikes the movie or that it sucks. You must’ve uploaded the wrong clip. This is the one where he’s talking about how he initially disagreed with the director on where his character was headed. A comment he later clarified, which I showed you.
Carry on denying the truth.
Look through old news stories.
Pirate of the Knights of Gareth
But he doesn’t say he dislikes the movie! What else is there to say? LOL. I ask you to show me where he says TLJ sucks, and you post the clip where he talks about his reaction to the Luke character? Why? He even ends by saying that he really believes Rian was the exact man they needed for this job!
By the way, what do you say about this interview where he says the film is probably his favourite one since ESB?...
So sad that you can't see the legal bull that really happened.

Oh, I have no doubts about that. It’s the easy route. Sad indeed.
Enlighten us. What really happened?
Please enlighten us on this.
It has to be more interesting than the last 5 pages of this movie was great, no it was terrible back and forth.

Ok, just bear with me for a second. Mark was saying how he hated the way Luke was going in TLJ for months in advance prior to release. Not too long after the release, he did a complete 180, saying how it was a masterpiece and Rian is a great director. Now, to me, it seems like Disney came down on him and told him to shut his trap, because it isn't good for the film if one of the major actors talks bad about it. There was probably some contract binding or legal threats made by Disney to force him to change his opinion, and turn him from bashing the film to promoting it. He said something like he didn't like a film as much as when he made TESB.
Given the fact that he was saying he's "not my Luke Skywalker" not too long ago and then completely changes his opinion to loving the film, seems a bit too suspicious for me.
If you want to not believe in what I said, that's fine. However, when you talk down to me when I say I agree with someone else, then I don't care about your opinion as much.

This, 100% agree. I don't get why people are getting so annoyed and uptight to defend the film. It was decent - not bad, not great. But it threw a lot of good things out the window and added stuff for the PC crowd.
Made me actually appreciate TFA a lot more.
Bruh, I agree with you 100%.
This, so much.

Both movies suffer from the same problems but at least TLJ had an original plot.
But I'm done now....go back to your hateful lives trying to convince others to be just as shallow minded as you are....I'm sure you'll find plenty of other little brainers to follow you.
CIAO
Woah they used caps, don't mess
Eh, it kinda had a similar premise to TESB with a little bit of ROTJ. TFA was more like ANH.
"It would essentially ruin the eras and turn them into nothing much more than the same thing and same experience but with a different skin. Which is contrary to the point in having eras in the first place." - ZmanGames
But it’s nowhere near the replica that TFA was to ANH.
I was hoping for a news story saying it actually came down to lawyers
But yes, I recall it happening, at least being reported, as you do.
Pirate of the Knights of Gareth
I mean, THAT would really be bad for Disney if so lol.

First of all, no one talked down to you... If you’re going to use a person as a tool to validate your opinion, you atleast should be able to back it up, don’t you think? If you’re saying that what we’ve been seeing is Disney taking legal action against Hamill, for speaking his mind about how he initially disagreed with the story of Luke Skywalker, then the burden of proof really is on you. Otherwise, maybe you should stay clear of the issue altogether? Why even go there?
Also, I’ve yet to see any clip or article where Mark Hamill is actually saying he hates or dislikes TLJ. The ”not my Luke Skywalker” thing seems to have been taken way out of context... Yeah, he is saying that he didn’t initially agree with how Luke Skywalker was portrayed in TLJ and that this is not how he invisioned the character that has been a part of him for 40 years, it’s not his Luke Skywalker, but people have created some kind of weird movement out of it. If I were Mark Hamill, I’d be very uncomfortable with people using me in a hate campaign against myself, so to speak. He says he regrets talking about his initial reservations in public. I feel sorry for him.
You can believe what you wanna believe aswell, no worries. But when you guys can’t back your claims up with anything, your suspicions aren’t that relevant. I simply have no reason to believe you.
(No clue what these forums are up to right now... I went in to edit a spelling error and the whole post disappeared. Sorry if there’s a double post)
