it looks like snow and they are hoth
but it's salt
Go outside your house and lick the dirt on the ground.
never saw the movie, but I assume it's because the movie made you think it was going to rip off Empire Strikes Back, but they subverted your expectations at ever turn. it's not snow, it's salt. but just going the opposite of what you expect is still being tied to your expectations rather than being its own thing. I'm basing this mostly on the Plinkett Review because I don't watch movies even though I try to keep up with them.
why would a person pick up salt on a salt planet, put it in his mouth, and say "Salt"
IT'S TAPE!
because nepotism gives people who should be insurance salesmen jobs writing and directing because they hate the movie going public
because it's very obviously meant to be like hoth, and they're pretending like it's not by making the snow is salt
not only is it a weak excuse, but the fact that they even go to the effort of pretending like it's not hoth is stupid, like they're embarrassed of the obvious lack of imagination.
I wanted to see them go to Pepper Planet goddamnit! Not the lame faggy Salt rock. Rian subverted me hard
who fucking cares
>tastes the alien dust
>"It's arsenic!"
>"ARRGGghhh!"
Thus ends the rebellion.
Because its fucking stupid to begin with since it makes no fucking sense for somebody just to scoop up the ground, lick it, then state what it is, along with the fact the only reason it exists is probably because Rian realized people would recognize the planet as just a rip off of Hoth so in a vain attempt to trick retards he added this scene just so he could claim its not a rip off because instead of snow its salt, problem was nobody fell for it so the scene is even dumber
its like when highly trained special forces have to be told what a halo jump is
shut your fucking mouth you stupid faggot
IT'S TAPE
The internet hates fun because a bunch of liberals think Star Wars has become too liberal.
this but unironically
Correct. And it's just so ridiclous because not a single soul, not one person, ever, no one in history, said that they wanted the sequels to be a shot for shot, beat for beat remake of the original movies. It has to be the most moronic and completely unnecesary decision in cinematic history.
ITS ON A PLANET THAT LOOKS LIKE HOTH
BUT ITS NOT SNOW
ITS ACTUALLY SALT
HAVE YOUR EXPECTATIONS BEEN SUBVERTED YET
Based Rian
triggered much you disney fanboy shillnig 9000?
oooooooooh not atats big gorilla atats
It's stupid because why would they not already know it's salt?
>Explain why this is a bad scene.
As for that line its just a really dumb way to explain to the audience that they're on a salt flat. There are much better ways to convey that information then having a dude taste the ground.
As for the scene the visual of the speeders whipping up clouds of red iron dust and leaving lines on the salt flat is great BUT everything else about that scene is terrible. Viet Kong girl's kamikaze ram that saves Finn followed by a kiss while their friends die in the background is so stupid I almost thought Rian intended it as satire. Kylo reverting to a petulant child throwing a tempe tantrum undoes all his character growth in the film. Rey is once again a Mary Sue and Luke dying a meaningless death is a fuck you to the fans that destroyed the one character anyone had any interest left for.
imagine just body slamming him repeatedly
People who defend this dumb hack because of muh cinematography are literally retarded. Movies are about telling a good story, if it doesn't do that then all the rest in pointless. Good cinematography might make a good movie great but it does not make a shit movie worth watching.
put the salt with the jam scene lol
It's only there for the audience. The character would already know that the planet was covered with salt, there's just now way he would be deployed there without having been briefed on it, in fact in universe it would probably be common knowledge, like we know the arctic is cold.
Holy shit...
>it's pure cocaine
>holy shit, pack up a 100 kilos into those droids and let's bail
>fuck the star wars, Zeltros here we come
Salt! There's only one woman who would dare take us to the salt planet! Rey Palpatine!
It's bad because they wanted to rip off the look of Hoth but not enough to use snow. So they let us know "it's salt".
First off, it's ridiculous that anyone would ever taste the ground to figure what they were standing on. But secondarily, a planet made of salt would be completely dead, nothing can grow there. It would have no atmosphere and more to the point, no breathable air.
It highlights The Last Jedi's biggest problem and that is that every fucking aspect of the film has to be a subversion, regardless of if it makes any sense at all. It wants to trick the audience into thinking it's just another Hoth but it never gives any consideration of if the reveal of it not being snow can even function as presented in the story, let alone in the broader Star Wars canon.
