I believe TPM is rather inoffensive. Its very secluded into itself.
AotC on the other hand is the biggest garbage.
Jayden Gutierrez
Agreed.
The last two prequels exist together as crappy attempts at modern Star Wars.
The Phantom Menace is uniquely strange. What a weird movie. Every aspect of it is totally bizzare. I can't think of another big budget movie which was on every level a total misfire. One weird idiosyncratic choice after another.
Jaxon Taylor
Could you explain? I'd like to hear what was specifically so strange about it.
Parker Barnes
9/11 really fucked everything up.
Carter Morgan
I don't think I can explain. Not in a post at this hour.
It's because it's a big budget film made by a director/writer with total creative control, who cannot direct or write.
Luke Allen
man i smoked so much pot before seeing TPM, I had no fucking idea what was going on
Camden Nguyen
The prequels are every bit as goo as the OT.

Owen Moore
Do you reckon Trump with bring forward a new age? We're due for a shift from post-9/11 to post-post-9/11.
Did World War Two just never end? Are we as nations destined to fight perpetually, our strength and natural enemies determined by our geography and climate? Are we but ants on a rock, gifted the illusion of self and free will but ultimately a slave to the ebbs and flows on nature?
Dominic James
haha me too bro 420 blaze it amirite?
Hunter Fisher
How can a movie which rips off another movie while executing it 10 times better?
If you liked Part 4 than you automatically like Part 7. there's no arguing, that's just how it is.
Parker Campbell
At the very least, we can start making fun of the president again.
Parker Gutierrez
So were AOTC and ROTS.

Oh please fucking die.
Please be bait.
Episode 7 was horrible cringey capeshit. Episode 4 is a simple tale that captures the imagination. It isn't a masterpiece, but it didn't need to be.
Episode 7 looked and felt like a TV show. Not funny, no heart, cringey characters and dialogue, horrible art direction, flatline plot, retarded advancement of the timeline etc.
I'm not even a massive Star Wars nerd. It's just, there's art and heart in 4 whereas 7 is a cheap, non-creative piece of merchandise.
Wyatt Kelly
2/7 movies are good. That makes it a bad franchise. Twilight had one good movie out of four. Twilight is a better franchise than Star Wars.
Asher Smith
Not him, but there are a lot of kids that are going to watch TFA and feel the same way people did about ANH and that we did about the prequels. One isn't art more than the other.
Michael Robinson
twilight has zero good movies you fag
James Smith
Episode II>Episode I>Episode III>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Episode VI
Yes it is because VI is a legit remake
Daniel Ramirez
TFA was trash and I honestly feel sorry for the deluded goys who actually paid for it.
Alexander Sanchez
How the fuck do you know what kids think? And who cares anyway, they like all sorts of crap. I know that TFA is hogwash. That's all that matters.
The idea that we can't judge and discriminate between the Star Wars movies because kids like them and we're blinded by nostalgia is retarded.
TFA defenders are braindead.
Hudson Collins
Star Trek Beyond was more enjoyable and felt fresher than The Force Awakens.
Adrian Campbell
It's just going to become capeshit. Disney won't sell it because the SW movie will be easy money for at least another generation.
Matthew Cooper
V > IV > VII > VI
IV > V > VII > VI
V = IV > VII > VI
If you think otherwise, you're wrong.
Brayden Sanchez
>V ~= IV > VII > VI
you're welcome
Isaac Clark
Third movie had somone else do cinematography.
Mason Bennett
>Not him, but there are a lot of kids that are going to watch TFA and feel the same way people did about ANH
I think historical context is important to consider. ANH was one of the first space movies from a new generation of directors in the 70s. Kids really hadn't seen anything like it. TFA is just another in a sea of space opera wannabes.
Xavier Smith
TFA is objectively a solid movie
5>>>>=3=6 they're all decent movies overall>1>2
Empire is a GREAT movie. A new hope is excellent too, but empire is just a consistently amazing experience. The chemistry is great, the action flows.
Jedi is good, the Luke/Vader/Sheev parts are perfect. The rest feels rushed and is a bit dull.
TFA was good. If you take out the death star ripoff ending and a few of the nostalgia callbacks it would have been much better. Loses points for ignoring the prequels.
ROTS is a pretty good movie as well, other than the stale dialogue.
Adrian Price
Except this is a lie. People where calling it shit from day one.
No way is 3=6. Like you said: the Throne room scenes are basically perfect. Beautifully shot, best dialogue in the entire series, and some of the most emotional music. 3 doesn't have a scene that even comes close.
