And I thought Disney was supposed to repair the damage of the prequels? LOL, only 2 years in and this new franchise is already falling flat on its stupid face.

I guess purple hair doesn't beat purple lightsabre.

And poorly written characters don't beat bad acting.

Well, let's not pretend like the prequel characters were so marvelously written, either.

[–] TheUltimateHippo (2250) 6 years ago

The dialogue was bad, but in the prequels the characters and their motivations at least made sense. I can't say that for the Disney films.

If you liked them, that's great, but I don't care about any of them. The only prequel character worth watching is Palpatine, and that's only because Ian McDiarmid is so great in the role. I don't even like Yoda in the prequels or new films.

Bail Organa, Padme, Anakin, Shmi, Watto, Qui-Gon Jinn - I can't get into any of them.

I would agree with that. In fact after letting it stew a couple days I corrected my rating for the movie and it’s my lowest rated Star Wars film. I can honestly say I enjoyed all of the PT more than TLJ.

Maybe there's hope yet? Now all we need is for everyone suckered by JJ 'mystery box' Abrams to give a genuine rating for TFA so that can sink down to live with the likes of Baby Geniuses where it belongs.

Ha I would rather watch baby geniuses
