I've always thought that movie reviewers were very lenient on Disney since all Marvel movies get such high ratings yet, while good, they are pretty formulaic at this point. But TLJ was the first time I thought that Disney was actively buying good review scores, because there is no way that movie gets a 91% rating if it doesn't have Star Wars in the title
Yeah I'm kind of surprised how highly rated these Star Wars and Marvel movies are by critics. Most of them are so formulaic and manufactured that I just don't see any greatness. I get that if you get enough good actors together, throw in a lot of cool special effects, and action in you can end up with an entertaining film but at the same time they are totally hollow and disposable. I just don't see how these films can score as high as better acted movies with superior stories.
I feel nostalgia has distorted objectivity when it comes to the recent Star Wars movies and this one being a character focused story the may not resonate with fans. I have to admit I personally feel this movie is a little unnecessary but if it's good by audience standards (seeing you can't trust the critics with these movies) I will watch it.

That train design bugs me. Giant front wheels that are either missing from the other cars or taking up a ton of space inside the train. Guns that seem like they'd only be able to shoot things near the track, and that would possibly hit the track if going around the wrong kind of curve. There's nothing connecting the top segments to the bottom (and if there was, it would collide with the supports), so why do they even run together?
I think it’s more like the 39s mark. There’s a ship that looks like Slave I so people think Boba Fett is in the movie.
Spoiler!
Upon closer inspection I don't think it's the Slave 1. The object in the image has some kind of frills on its front. The Slave 1 is totally smooth on the front. The back propulsion piece doesn't look right either.

Not to nerd out, but I think that if it is Slave 1, and I'm not saying it is, remember the Falcon looks different then the one from the OT, with a solid frame up front.
If you look at it as a off sideways angle or facing at an angle slightly away from the camera that it does look like the frills could be the navigating wings on Slave 1
I know its lego, but this is the angle I'm thinking of

I saw a new commercial last night that ends with a shot of Han and Chewie in handcuffs. In the background of the shot, you can see what appears to be Lando in his Bounty Hunter costume from Return of the Jedi.
