Loved it! It wasn't perfect, but I'm seeing ridiculous criticism over the web that makes me wonder if these people even like Star Wars, or even movies in general lol

I was so excited after seeing it and hopped on here and Rotten Tomatoes hoping to share my excitement with others but seeing an overwhelmingly negative response online kinda killed it for me.

You're right, that's totally unfair to Nickelback!

I don't think it needs to be taken that literally that there must be a last Jedi. The question of the film is whether or not Luke is the last Jedi, and he may yet be. He said he was not, but whether or not Rey rebuilds the Jedi order is yet unknown. It seems to me that the destruction of the temple, Yoda's speech, Luke's comments in aggregate, Rey's comfortability with the Dark, and Kylo's desire to drop the past adds up to a future in which Luke was indeed the last Jedi. Of course the Force remains and Force users will remain, but the Jedi/Sith dynamic may be past.

That's what a spoiler thread is for.
Avoid Instagram. Star Wars' Instagram account has a video with spoilers. Wtf are they thinking?

I just feel bad for George Lucas selling all rights to Star Wars for 4 BILLION dollars. Rookie move. Seems like a lot of money but in reality it was chump change. Disney will clear that deal on this movie alone by the time the New Years ball drops.
Didn't Lucas ever watch Spaceballs???
Like the dude buying two pizzas for 10,000 Bitcoins in 2006 only to find out they will sell for a kabillian dollars a decade later.
SAD!
I wish I had bought $100 worth of Bitcoin 7 years ago. Worth nearly $3.8 million now.

I can't see how any OG fan would find this enjoyable.
I am a hardcore Star Wars nerd. Still have my toys from my childhood. I own all the movies. I’ve watched all of them countless times. I watch all of them in order, non stop countless times. I went to see Rogue One back to back in the theater. It is an obsession with me, and has been since I saw empire strikes back in the theaters as a kid. I have no desire to see The Last Jedi again. Does that tell you anything about this latest film......
If you want to watch the originals over and over for the rest of your life, do so. The story needs to move forward, it can't just stay the same forever.

I absolutely LOVED The Force Awakens. The story went nowhere near anything forward. Maybe sideways at best. It’s plain bad story telling and movie making.

The Force Awakens was practically a shot for shot remake of A New Hope! Rogue One was a dead end nostalgia trip. The Last Jedi was the first to break new ground since the originals.
Not liking it is fine, nobody is obligated to agree with the direction of the narrative, but calling it bad filmmaking is ridiculous.

Still waiting for someone to tell me what this amazing new ground was broken and what parts of this story moved us foreword.

The Skywalkers are done. The story has moved beyond the Skywalkers. That's huge. The Sith/Jedi opposition is done. The supreme coldy evil character has been replaced (at least for now) with a hotly conflicted upstart. That's huge. The Kylo-Rey connection and relationship is unlike anything we've seen, and the new mental Force powers are practically limitless. The good guys are on the ropes far worse than they have ever been. One of the staple characters of the story, the wild nd wreckless cowboy, was finally put in check and learned about humility.

I will come back to your other points in more detail, but first things first....the Skywalkers are certainly not done.

This! I am interested in a new direction not the same old formula. I find everyone's lack of faith disturbing.
