Mike Stoklasa and the Plinkett reviews destroyed Lucas' image and legacy beyond repair.

If the reviews never existed, we never would've had Disney buying George out.

Mike Stoklasa, a pitiful, failed director / writer, had to destroy and tarnish a greater creator's legacy in order to propel himself to stardom. He used the unfortunate failure of Lucas as a stepping stone to make himself look smarter. He is nothing more than a phony erudite. All the things he mocked in the past, he now commends with songs of praise. He is a shill. A lazy, uncreative and savage brute. A man who couldn't create, so turned to criticism instead. Throwing unjustified ad hominems in the process to paint Lucas as a "hack," when he himself, was the hack all along.

Lucas did that himself.

Lucas hasn't been on the internet since 2000, I doubt he even knows the reviews exist. He sold out because he knew he was getting old and wanted to cash out.

youre so assblasted about kids movies. a review wont make you dislike a movie you previously liked. the plinkett reviews were popular because they pointed out all the things the public felt about those shitty movies but were too dumb to articulate. get over it, the movies sucked and everyone was in agreement ten years ago.

There were the ones making that claim. That in original trilogy Lucas had to comply with Kasdan and others who made the movie great. In prequels he had full power, therefore it's bad.

Well, Kasdan made The Force Awakens with Cocknose, you can see how well that went.

George Lucas could make the Citizen Kane of star wars movies and autistic fans would have still boycottes it because the hip trend was to hit him and act like he was Satan.

>>64082912
based Lucas is giving the money to charity

The prequels were always seen as bad but the sentiment against them really turned violent every since the reviews, /tv/ is literally the only place on the Internet you can claim they are even decent without a harsh negative reaction

Maybe Lucas realized he couldn't do any good in the public eye anymore and that Disney at least had a good chance to make likeable movies

This. There is nothing objectively wrong with any of Lucas' work.

FROM MY POINT OF VIEW, THE RLM IS EVIL.
>>
>>64083128
i view it in much colder business terms. before the RLM vids, lucas had expressed that he wasn't going to make anymore star wars movies multiple times. disney, a large money hungry institution probably viewed this as lucas was becoming less involved with star wars. they saw an opportunity to seize the brand and milk it a la marvel, pixar, etc. it's the sort of thing that they'd probably been planning for years, and $4 billion is too much money for one man to turn down.

Stoklasa found the Star Wars portrayal of a powerful, ordered regime like the Empire as 'bad' deeply offensive so he sought to destroy it.

Lucas made sub-par movies. We all agree on this. The point is he doesn't deserve the reaction and labeling he gets. I hi a mind he made the retarded movies fanboys have been asking for and only now they realize they didn't want it but he still delivered. Fans are more to blame. Plus the general attitude I get today is no matter what JJ made fans would have loved because smugly they wanted to continue the hipster trend and shit on Lucas. Star wars fans are the worst.

Go watch the prequels. There is your proof.

>>64083701
I watched them they were ok for what they were. Your point?
>>
>>64083771
Okay. That is your opinion. My opinion (along with the majority of people who watched the prequels) is that they were shit.
>>
a huge part of the /tv/ prequel defense is the thrill of being a contrarian
>>
>>64083795
An opinion that is more of a hipster popularity trend then actual fact. That's the point. These movies never went nuclear with the hate until the RLM videos.
>>
>but everyone used to love the prequels!
>Lucas stopped using the Internet 15 years ago the reaction from fans upset him so much

Just because YOU like the prequels because you were 8 years old when RotS came out doesn't mean anyone with half a brain felt the same. Also how dumb do you have to be to think RLM has influence over anything outside of a very small fan base?
>>
>>64083895
No we are just calling the prequel hater contrarians on their shit. How they didn't give a shit about the prequels until they watched a stupid YouTube video on what their opinion should really be and since that opinion is edgy and different they created a subculture around it.

Their views do likely not match even a single percent of the amount of people who have seen these movies.

The prequels were regarded as shit when they came out and will always be regarded as shit. Being a contrarian with an axe to grind won't change that.

Worldwide gross of episode 2 was something like 2/3rds of episode 1. That's bad reviews and bad fan reaction at work.
>>
Here's the deal about lucas. He's a genius.
The prequels were a absurdist deconstruction of the space opera genre much like how godard's movies are a deconstruction of the classic french thriller genre.
Phantom Menace is literally the Pierrot le fou of the space opera genre.
It's patrician cinema of the highest quality.

Seriously though, it makes sense that aspie Star Wars fans would like the prequels. Their condition would make it impossible to tell how stilted and awkward the dialogue is, and how none of the relationships between the characters were believable or authentic.

not a fanboy of star wars at all, but as a patrician and someone that has actually watched a lot of real cinema, the prequels are some of the most interesting super-budget hollywood films of the past 20 years. very immersive and inter-textual, and in no way ironic or self-aware. it's quite possibly the most expensive piece of outsider art ever made.

the original trilogy on the other hand is very flawed and kinda stupid. I like the sets and the cinematography though, and the yoda stuff is great. also a new hope pretty much killed 70s new hollywood/auteur filmmaking, so it generally leaves a bad taste in my mouth
