Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (2017)Directed by Rian JohnsonI watched "The Last Jedi" on Sunday morning and enjoyed it.  After the very entertaining "The Force Awakens", Rian Johnson had a high bar to live up to. And this being the eighth episode in the series, it's a huge task to be inventive. The movie was very well made, and if anything, succeeded in completely subverting our expectations. It picks up immediately after the previous installment, with the Rebels trying to escape the First Order, and Rey finally finding Luke Skywalker who's been in hiding all these years on the planet Ahch-To. We get to see more of the conflicted villain Kylo Ren and I thought that character was well handled. There are quite a few unexpected turns in the story and the way it ends, leaves a lot of possibilities open for Episode IX. There are some gorgeous visuals in this movie. John Williams's music is effective as well. Perhaps the pace could have been tightened up a bit. Also, I kind of felt Luke became unlikeable in this movie. But overall, it's a worthy entry in the series. I think I enjoyed Episode VII a bit more though. Since I've already drawn sketches of Daisy Ridley as Rey from the movie, I thought I'd draw this Porg (a bird like creature indigenous to Ahch-To). The drawing was done on my new Brustro A5 sketchbook (160 GSM paper), with 0.5mm 2B pencil and @Prismacolor pencils. This is a scan of the drawing. #DailyMovieSketch #Porg #StarWars #TheLastJedi #310 / 19-Dec-17
