Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi roared to a triumphant box office success in its opening weekend, bringing in more than $220 million in America, and $450 million worldwide. It was the second-biggest opening weekend for a movie in history, following the previous installment in the film franchise The Force Awakens.

A handful of specific points about the movie have become particular focal points. Here’s a roundup of some of the most common and most hotly contested arguments about the new film, and a chance to take sides on all of them in one place. (Note: poll responses are largely drawn from actual fan reactions seen online.)

Warning: major spoilers ahead for The Last Jedi.
