A Blog Update

Quiapo, Manila 2017

Many years ago, I've started White Jeepney so that I can express my love in Cinema.  I remember the days where I am always excited to write something about I just watched, whether it's a bad or a good film. It felt like there's always something to talk about. The beginning of inactivity of this blog started when I am no longer a student.  Cinema never really left me despite the years of me not being to see as much movies as I used to, but I discovered something, that is more tangible in terms of my creative preference.

The Last Jedi: How to tell a Saga

Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (2017)

Petitions rises to remove Rian Johnson's take on Star Wars Universe which is The Last Jedi on canon is reasonable for the fans who have high expectation or more like prediction on the saga that never went true. After J.J Abram's the force awakens, people's expectation for the Episode 8 has already been set. There was the questions that the previous episode never answered and also there's the characters that needed fleshed off. If you have that expectations, you'll probably get disappointed with The Last Jedi, because all of the things we thought we will see in the movie never happened, and to the whole canon saga, Rian Johnson just despise it and Disney never did anything about it, or did they ?
