Did you hear on 1 College Girl Karaoke The Last Jediis an Objectively Bad Movie.
Never mind that it raked in $1.3 billion worldwide to become the 11th highest grossing film of all time (and second most successful Star Wars film ever), or that it was a critical sensation with a 91% score on Rotten Tomatoes. The Last Jediis bad because a bunch of angry dudes with tiny Twitter follower numbers say so!
Now anywhere between one and several of those dudes have banded together under a Twitter account called Remake The Last Jedi. The avowed intent by this anonymous "team of producers" is to fund and crowd-write a new version of the movie, which cost north of $200 million to make.

Johnson later wrote that he knew he was giving the project a "signal boost" by retweeting it, "but figured this was SO silly ..."
The account says it plans to set up "an inbox for story treatment submissions" and will crowdsource the writing process, though exactly how multiple fan-written scripts will coalesce into one isn't clear.
The funding process isn't clear either; in one tweet, the "team of producers" were "offering to cover the budget," but another sought financial pledges with various rewards. Pledge $100 and you can be in the remade movie!

By Thursday morning the account claimed it had $73,000 in pledges -- well on the way to $200 million.
"The plan is to make a version of TLJthat is as close to universally accepted as possible!" the account writes. "You'll never please everyone, but at least it wouldn't be blasphemy."
What "blasphemy" was contained in The Last Jediisn't made clear. But many naysayers have focused their ire on the fact that Luke Skywalker begins the movie as a hermit, broken by his mistakes in training potential Jedi -- even though that was exactly the fate of both Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda in the original trilogy.
Others have continued a complaint leveled against Rey after The Force Awakens-- that she appears to have acquired her Force powers rather easily, despite the same being true of Luke Skywalker in the original trilogy.
This isn't the first angry reaction to The Last Jedi, of course. One man's Change.org petition immediately after its release last December asked Disney to "strike" the movie "from the official canon." It was met with laughter, and the petition's creator later said he had been on "strong pain medication" at the time and the petition was "a bad idea."
The majority of Star Wars fans on Twitter treated the remake proposal with similar delighted derision:
