    ROFL!

    Took my family to watch this movie today. Upon second viewing, that Canto Bite/Casino scene was even MORE useless than I remember it being!

    I can honestly say that the entire sub-plot of Finn and Rose going to that Casino and looking for the Code Breaker yada yada yada could've been easily omitted from the story and nothing would change. The whole "6 hours of fuel" thing really doesn't make sense to me, nor does the excuse of the First Order always lagging behind the Resistance Fleet because the Resistance cruisers are "smaller and lighter." Lighter? In space?! And I still don't get why Holdo just allowed Poe to stage his coup. The moment it started was when Holdo should've said something to persuade Poe not to relinquish her of command. She could not have known that Leia would've recovered just in the nick of time to stop Poe. Why not just have words with Poe? Even something like, "We do have something better planned but I'm not at liberty to tell you what it is. Please trust me." Or, "May I have a quick private chat with you for a moment?" Poe mutinied because he was led to think that Holdo's plan was to simply continue outrunning the First Order in defenceless shuttles. He was justified in his fear based on what he knew, this was counter-productive to Holdo's objective! Yes, he's an impulsive and triggerhappy fly-boy, but you need him on side!

    Otherwise I found the rest of the film to be quite fun and enjoyable.

    P.S.: Noticed that Luke makes direct reference to events and people from the Prequel Trilogy. When The Force Awakens came out, I heard people theorise that the Sequels were going to ignore the Prequels and only continue from the Original Trilogy. But The Last Jedi, also referencing the Prequels, clearly shows that they aren't ignoring them. Which I think is good.
