The prequels don't look half bad now, huh?
>>64097007
no, they're still shit
7 is better than all of them
>>64097007
They look worse now, actually. TFA shows how good the prequels could have been if GL just gotten somebody to polish his script a bit.
>>64097007
They will never be even close to as bad as all the contrarians/trolls try to sell TFA as.
>>64097052
This, you contrarian half wit. Execution trumps "originality," since that's the basis of the shitty argument you will fall back on, literally always
Worse in comparison. And just so fucking unremarkable, lifeless and boring.
>>64097007
shit on VII all you want, the dialog was absolute garbage in the prequels.
>>64097052
>>64097057
>>64097062
Nah, Guardians of the Galaxy: The Force Awakens Into Darkness is the worse out of them all.
>>64097052
7 isnt even a star wars movie m8.
>>64097007
I never thought the prequels were that bad. Worse than the originals, yes. But not horrible or a fuck up.
Now this Episode VII is.
>>64097007
TFA was way better than any of the prequels, even if it was just a rehash of ANH
>>64097104
This.
It's a Marvel meme flick with stupid jokes and action omg so epic xDDD
>>64097085
No. It is YOU who is the contrarian halfwit
About a great, many thingssss.
>>64097007
You're correct they look completely bad now.
>>64097135
They're so desperate to make jokes they even made the villian a joke himself.
>>64097135
I could deal with that probably. This though rewrites basic rules of the universe just because fuck you.
>>64097007
>The prequels don't look half bad now, huh?
They actually devoted time to explaining who Boba Fett's DAD was.
That's beyond bad...that's like some weird experiment in satire.
i remember i enjoyed it because of cool spaceship and lightsaber battle, but now i've just realized how terrible it is in terms of acting, characters, and dialogue
>>64097104
>>64097135
Yeah star wars should be about disputes with the trade federation, intergalatic senators, forbidden love stories and video game fights.
TFA really didn't have enough of that.
>>64097225
>preferring Guardians of the Galaxy: The Force Awakens Into Darkness
wew lad, you stupid c͏uck s͏m͏h t͏͏b͏͏h f͏͏a͏͏m
>>64097225
Are you being paid to shill, or do you just have shit taste?
The prequels were much better written, they had actual characters and story, not a bunch of memes and one-liners that lack any emotion or coherence. Luke is a cliched everyboy "hero" that goes through an absurdly rapid transformation between the fifth and the sixth episodes. Anakin's emotional instability and his exposure as a psychopath are gripping; and his doomed relationship with Padme is touching. In the "original trilogy" Han, Leia, Darth Vader and Obi Wan are complete meme characters, nothing about them is remotely believable or human. And why doesn't anyone care about deaths in those movies? Leia's planet destruction, Luke's stepparents' death, all of the blown up rebels--the list could go on--all the deaths are forgotten moments later.
As for direction, the movies from the "original trilogy" were mostly incoherent, badly edited and full of logical problems. The prequel trilogy is a work of a "vulgar auteur".
I feel neutral about the series overall, and honestly don't care about trolling or contrarianism. Here are my sincere rankings:
1. "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones"
2. "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace"
3. "Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith"
4. "Star Wars"
5. "The Empire Strikes Back"
6. "Return of the Jedi"
7.
8. "The Force Awakens"
Episode 7 isn't even a Star Wars movies. It is a Marvel flick masquerading as one.
>>64097135
>It's a Marvel meme flick with stupid jokes and action omg so epic xDDD
Compared to the high-level intelectual poetry in dactylic hexameter of the OT amirite?
>>64097307
Yup.
It's a damn shame your taste is so unrefined.
>>64097225
The map plot is far more retarded than anything in the prequels.
>>64097225
You're right actually
i've only watched a jew hope. should i bother with the rest?
>>64097052
>ey're still shit
>7 is better than all of them
7 is a shitty fanfiction.
>>64097364
Yes. 1-6 are all great.
>>64097007
I swear you people haven't actually watched them since their theatrical release and are just posting this shit to be contrarians and meme.
Not saying The Force Awakens is the holy grail of Star Wars movies but fuck off.
I liked 7 better because Disney created less childish shit than Lucas.
>>64097197
Say what.
Boba was just a cameo, it was all about Jango being the clone army.
>>64097413
>less childish
Hello reddit!
>>64097052
Holy shit fuck off back to your own site reddit
>>64097403
>he didn't watch a prequels with /tv/ weeks ago
hello, reddit!
>>64097413
>>64097097
I'll be completely honest, I fucking love episode 3, though I like the OT better than any of the prequels. I don't know if 7 will eclipse 3 for me. That said, I won't pretend the dialogue was anything but shit in 3. Still, it was some really fun shit. As corny as it might be, I love Anakin and Obi-wan's dialogue on Mutafar. Order 66 feels like an emotional gut punch the wayHan's deathdidn't quite; though it might be better on subsequent viewings.

Prove me wrong.

So yeah I pretty much agree with you except for the meme
>>64097305
this kinda of trolling that fails fantastically, despite it being obvious that a lot of effort was put into it, its what keeps me around this place
this is some honest comedy
Prequels still suck because we go from stuff like this to gunmetal grey X-Wings in just 15 years.
Lucas tried too hard to give the earlier years this feel of this long-lost renaissance, but there just isn't enough time between the two sets of movies. The Millennium Falcon looks beat up and lived-in by it's very first appearance. It looks like it would be shiny and new looking 15 years ago. But instead the technology looks completely fucking different.
If Luke/Leia were supposed to be 35 instead of 19 maybe it would have made more sense.
>>64097568
How can you put the movie that shits all over the series it shares a name with so high?
>>64097338
>hurr durr we can't recognise these systems in this map, it's not complete
turns out that part is sth like a 10th of the whole galaxy
resistance doesn't seem able to find sth that big in a complete map of the galaxy
>>64097225
well, yeah, stories about people on a macro and micro scale. star wars is plain old romance, fantasy, tragedy, destiny, and all that good stuff. TFA brought nothing to the table.
>Special effects are just a tool, a means of telling a story. People have a tendency to confuse them as an ends themselves. A special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing.
>>64097613
Simple, shit taste.
>>64097613
You have to fall for the prequel memes and also be easily placated
>>64097704
The only meme about the prequels is that they weren't insanely boring and pointless.
>>64097640
You don't know how hyperspace routes work in the star wars universe do you?
>>64097846
Please explain me why I'm wrong.
>>64097419
>Jango being the clone army
In retrospect, an idea so stupid you feel ridiculous even explaining it to somebody.
It's like Anakin building C-3P0...fucking retarded.
>>64097597
To be honest, you're comparing a naboo royal ship to a correlian beat up freighter.
You can do the same even today.
>>64097007
No the prequels are awful.
The worst thing is: Behind all that shit is hidden an actually good story.
Look at the deleted scenes from revenge and you will see the plot about giving up freedom for "security" and how it will lead to even less freedom and democracy.
If Lucas had done this trilogy right (probably skipping Phantom Menace completely because this shit is fucking stupid) this could haven beed pretty solid movies with just the ideas he had.
Prequels at least had the confidence to focus on politics and dialogue and characters. TFA just typical action set pieces one after another, the epitome of playing it safe
>>64098047
The Naboo fighters looked just as stupid, and the Jedi Starfighters that followed looked ridiculous. The prequels had shit taste for ships.
Just about the only ship in Ep1 that really felt like a Star Wars ship was the Trade Federation's space donuts.
>>64097345
>>64097942
That was awful.
>>64097101
Stop trying to force this fucking meme it's literally only you.
The prequels are infused with a bold vision of artistic profundity that eclipses the likes
of generic sci-fi movies of recent times. The streamlining process that has begun to creep
into the production of every slightly sci-fi-y tinged movie has created an amorphous blob
of mediocrity and blandness. The prequels deliver a basic premise of good vs.evil but do it
so by utilizing characters that are endowed with humanity. Aside from the storytelling
aspect the prequels stand strong on all fronts, from writing, cinematography and set pieces
that truly immerse you into a fantastic world full of wonder and awe. It is infinitely
unfortunate that this behemoth of a film project is marred by the majority of the
populace's inability to assess the genius and lack of intelligence. One can only hope that
in eons to come, evolution will have worked in ways as to ensure and maximize the
distribution of the gene that thrives in the intellectual minority of our time so that
future generations and civilizations will be able to grasp the grandeur of the prequels and
see behind the masquerading illusion that is reddit.

I know this image isn't very fair, because it all looks a little better in motion, but holy fuck this looks like a video game
