Star Wars: The Sequels

[wease]

What does the Avengers thing have to do with that?

Star Wars replied to Marvel Studios, so the tweets are connected.

I can safely say this is my least favorite of the three trilogies. While the production of the prequels was bad, the stories are way better

I do wonder if more people will feel like you do in ten years time.

I might be in the same camp. The prequels at least have the Clone Wars to accompany them. The prequels have some many problems, it's hard to keep up with them. The sequels are also very flawed; it's kind of a wash for me.

Nah. The people who grew up on the OT will largely continue to dislike the PT and ST. That won't change. But those that grew up on the ST will continue to love and value it. It will get stronger for some (those that already like them) and weaker for others (those that don't). It won't be any different than the other eras.

I grew up on the OT, but man the PT and ST just don't do too much for me. I do like the CW, Rebels, Rogue One, and Solo though.

To an extent, I like the PT and ST but I can't get over some just basic stuff not thought of / fleshed out / etc...A lot of the same problems I have with the PT and ST, I have with ROTJ. For me it's really been a mixed bag since that movie. Nonetheless, I'm still facinated by it all and love to watch them. I also like to nitpick them and think how things should/could have been according to d_v.

I can definitely relate to this in my own way.

I've always found the OT to be a cheesy, ill-developed, patchwork of ideas that recovers from gorgeous visuals, bone-deep ancient storytelling tropes that literally resonate with all humans, groundbreaking VFX, and being a kid when I saw them. But those movies are just as flawed as any that came after (just in different ways). For me, the ST overcomes its flaws with characteristics that I appreciate and respond to more than the PT or OT.

Oh totally, the OT is everything you said. I was just watching some of it the other day and the celebration at the end of ANH... Considering how TLJ starts, a celebration seems like a bad idea. Like they need to GTFO before the rest of the Empire shows up.

i watched rise of skywalker last night and while visually it was stunning i think it was way to fast paced. you didnt have a lot of time to digest anything

i did like how ren and rey were connected to each other with the force in their mock battles

I’m happy all these movies are out there, flaws and all. We finally have the complete product, and can watch for years to come.

Finally got all three movies in 4K Blu-Ray at home.

[Anders]

Started TFA now. The first scene is magnificent. Brings us right into the action.

[Anders]

Finn is funny, BB-8 has s good story and is cute, Kylo is great, Poe feels like the main character. Don’t think many can complain about the start of this movie. Rey’s story could be a little better. Then we get the Falcon in a great chase.

[Anders]

After about 38-39 minutes it gets a bit silly with lots of poor jokes, and then Han and Chewie. Nostalgic, but something feels off.

[wease]

Poe doesn’t feel like the main character at all. He’s like watching wallpaper peeling from the wall.

Palpatine notwithstanding, he’s the worst thing in the sequels.

I was talking about the start of the movie, not the trilogy. But I think the actor playing him is really good, and the role is fine.
