Stunning visuals maybe but damn the story was bad and ruined any internal consistency of the space battles in the entire franchise. Rogue one is the only good Disney SW movie, Solo is fine too
nah. the sequels were fun in an initial watch, but have no staying power. they are just bullet point reshoots of the original trilogy. the prequels have issues but at least they are actually original ideas.
I can’t say never, but TRoS is a fucking awful movie (not just as Star Wars, but a terrible cinematic experience) and I think it’s really damn hard to redeem a trilogy with that as a bookend.
Also the fact that the second and third instalments barely feel like sequels let alone continuations of storylines retroactively made The Force Awakens worse. And it was only kind alright before.
The Last Jedi is top 3 out of the Skywalker movies easily.
In a few short years, you’ll see. The sequels will be redeemed just as the prequels before them. Time is a flat circle.
The prequels were redeemed? That’s news to me.
The most I’ve heard is “They aren’t as bad as the sequels”
Funny, because I still say the sequels aren’t as bad as the prequels.
I don’t agree. I believe I can summarize the difference this way:
The prequels are bad. The sequels are stupid.
the prequels are also stupid.
Yeah, but that’s a secondary attribute. The new ones are stupid front and center.
The prequels raped my childhood. The sequels killed it … and then raped its corpse.
The memes are better in the prequels

The prequels needed a better director. The sequels needed a writer.

The only reason I started to enjoy the prequels was because of r/prequelmemes
lol, no… everyone knows time is (was?) a cube
I think only the first episode has been “redeemed” in any way. Mostly because the pod race and darth maul.
The other two are still horrible.
How can you not enjoy the classic cinematics of III?!
They’ve been redeemed because they’ve opened such a rich world in the form of the TV shows and books. TCW and Rebels expanded on lore greatly.
