Daisy Ridley Finally Admits Star Wars: The Last Jedi Criticism Was 'Fair'
Episode VIII of Star Wars has not stopped causing controversy since its premiere in December 2017
British actress Daisy Ridley, who rose to world fame for
her role as Rey in Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 92%, is gradually building
a career that goes beyond the famous saga created by George Lucas, but his
life will be marked by the character created by JJ Abrams and his team. In
December 2017 Ridley returned to life as Rey in Star Wars: The Last Jedi -
91%, but the response of the fans to that film was much less enthusiastic
than to episode VII, and almost two years after that event, she for Fin
agrees that the fan complaints were not unfair.

Many people who enjoyed The Last Jedi wanted to disqualify the
film's critics by calling them "nostalfags" or saying that they did not
accept something new in the franchise; It was even said that it was Russian
bots that discredited director Rian Johnson's work to divide the country
(the United States) more than it already is. Fortunately for us, the
protagonist of this new Star Wars trilogy did not want to repeat such
nonsense.
She didn't surprise me, no. It's just a different
thing. Everyone is going to have an opinion now on the internet, but I also
think it's fair. If people have something dear to their hearts and think
they know how it should be and they don't, it's only fair that people think
they did it wrong.

Her words remind us of several actors who have expressed a
similar opinion, such as Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) himself, who expressed
before the premiere that he never agreed with what Rian Johnson wrote for
his character. Another involved in the franchise who said he was
dissatisfied with what Disney did was Simon Pegg, who was in a supporting
role in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
With Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker - 61% it is assumed that
the deviated course of the saga will be corrected, because as much as they
defend Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the division that it generated in the
fandom shows us that there was more than bots Russians at stake. Despite
surpassing $1 billion at the global box office, it fell well short of Star
Wars: The Force Awakens, which hit $2 billion and became the
third-highest-grossing film of all time.
This December episode IX will show if the task has been
achieved and if the fans are satisfied. Meanwhile we can enjoy Daisy Ridley
in her new movie, Ophelia.
