Why is /tv/ autists so desperate to try and turn The force awakens into the next phantom menace?

is it because you think its funny to meme on star wars?

is it because a lot of you are severely butthurt that disney said fuck you to the EU universe?

Personally i LOVED this movie iv seen it about 7 times now twice in the cinema and the rest online, it seams that a lot of peoples argument's are that they hate it because they did not follow the EU universe and Disney just made EU nothing but fan fiction.

It also seams that this isn't just a reboot like a few autistic people believe, it's about a family, its about how this bloodline that was created by the force to bring balance to the force.

Star Wars was a great great movie and has broken all records now and still raking in fuck tons of money, no matter what you autists think this film is better than any other star wars movie (bar empire)

It's because it is an overhyped piece of shit.

It's phantom menace tier for different reasons, but it's still pretty bad.

>>64624574
i disagree, the phantom menace was just cringe worthy to watch...i never got that with tfa, it felt like a star wars movie ..it just had that feel to it

Kinda defeats the entire purpose of having different Episodes, doesn't it?

I bet the novel doesn't explain why they made another easily destroyed Star Destroyer, or why all the storm troopers are human now that the clones died and they could kid nap non human aliens for the army. There's more but its a pretty garbage story and I would be here forever listing shit.

Yes it's way over-hyped. Fan boys are blind and over rate it as per usual. This movie really treat the audience as really dumb but then again most movie-goers will not be too experienced with what to look for in a movie so even if it's a pile of garbage it have nostalgia, action and that is enough for them.

Nope most people dont read comic books and I dont either, the general reaction to TFA is very positive though..

No. I'm not a fan of the EU. TFA just fits into that category of flicks like Pacific Rim tbqh. I don't even like Marvel and Guardians had a much better story than TFA.

>>64625346
That's the joke. When the Avengers came out everyone was like "yeah I always loved the Avengers" and I know that's bullshit. This is just something for losers to mark on their fake nerd card to prove their fake nerd credit. The movie is terrible.
>>
People are so insecure about their opinion that they have to make threads and try to make themselves believe that no criticism of it is fair and that everyone who didn't like it is only a hater.
If you liked it good, but don't try to force it down people's throat who aren't a fan of it.

I agree with him on this, even if especially episode 2 was tragically bad and boring.

Nope, a few losers will use it for their fake nerd card but nearly all people at the cinema were just regular people seeing it with friends and family to have a good time.

I saw Avengers on some DVD quality rip and thought it was nothing more than 7/10.

Went to watch TFA at a 2D screen last week and thought it was a 7.5 to 8/10.
>>
>>64625481
And Im sure they did but those people aren't critical about anything. "I watch that movie, it was nice" those people wont think about why did they make another fucking star destroyer or why there seems to be a lack of aliens in the empire or why the only jedi aliens are humanoid.

Have you even been on /tv/ the past month you dumb fuck? It's literally the other way around. People on here try so hard to get others to hate the film and everyone that likes it is called a shill / manchild / jew / bait etc. If you genuinly think it's the other way around, you must be blind.

Most 4chan boards are elitist enough to develop some underground sensibilities and recommend a catalog of things that most people have never heard of. This is a good thing, because it means it is beneficial to browse here instead of just keeping up with ads and conversations and finding out what everybody is watching. /tv/ is perhaps the worst board at doing this because of retards like you who don't understand that 4chan is all about feeling superior to other people.

They made another easily destroyed star destroyer

Only humans in the Empire (literally doesn't make sense anymore there are no clones anymore)

Sending a Janitor on a mission or murder people?

Rey learning the force without any training
>>
Because its shit and JJ Abrams is a hack. Instead of developing a story its just a hazy miasma of chase scenes and gunfights.

The original trilogy wasn't some action frenzy. It was a well told story of a young boy with a dull, sheltered life discovering the vast wonder of the universe. The first portion of the film shows Luke's life on Tatooine, and makes the viewer empathise with decision to leave and become a resistance fighter.

In TFS they spend about 30 seconds showing the audience who Rey is and never truly show why she decided to jump on the Millenium Falcon and become a Jedi. The characters and story are superficial and hollow.

I will never understand why people say 'It feels like a Star Wars film'. Its nothing like a Star Wars film. This shit is so soulless it's making people nostalgic for the prequels ffs.

Fact: The Phantom Menace is a better movie than The Force Awakens

The plot makes more sense.
The characters have better motivations.
The movie isnt laden with sequel bait, instead its teases are respectful of the audience.

Everyone person I asked watched it because it was the hip thing to do. My buddies gfs wanted to watch it too. Guess what though none of those women had ever watched the first six movies. And one of the girls even fell asleep within the first 10 minutes.

This movie was ANH 2.0 pumped fill of memes to appease normies. I watched it with my dad and he felt ashamed that jj just copied 4 (he watched the OT when they came out in theaters).

I agree with this. TFA was full of fanservice that detracted from the film.

>without inside info it wouldn't be easy
They had inside info every time

>They decided not to use clones ..so what?
They kidnap children to use in their army. Why not capture an alien race that is stronger than humans and use them as troopers or smarter aliens and use them for science or something

>janitor...that was his side job as a storm trooper..
That doesn't sound fucking dumb?

Ill wait for the second movie, pirate it and see if they talk about her ever training or if the vagina just sucks in the force and makes you better at it naturally.

Apart from Jedi, the OT is fucking rubbish. The acting's shite, the effects look shite; it's turgid story-telling that only survives because the children that watched it back then are still around. TFA is just as bad.

The prequels are finally getting the love they always deserved.

I think you're confusing what feels like 'star wars' with what feels like 'late 70s early 80s standard movie making'

Of course that aspect is gonna change and that's fine because Star Wars is more than the trends of the time it was made in, that's the point. Empire is filled with jokes that were really obvious for their time, seems like your real complaint is that the action and humor elements have been increased. It's a Star Wars movie made for today's audience. It's not inherently worse because the humor is more overt in comparison, especially when it isn't so dramatically different taking into account when the movies were made.

Is /tv/ the most pathetic userbase on 4chan? The contrarian mental gymnastics regarding Star Wars: TFA is incredible and at the same time absolutely loathsome.

The constant denial, backtracking and moving the goalposts.

>"TFA will be shit! Fucking Jew Jew Abrams, fucking nigger main character, fucking SJWs! People won't accept this! It will be worse than the prequels and a total flop!"
>Trailer drops. Record pre-sales, screenings booked out months in advance. Hype incredibly high.
>"I-it'll still be a flop! Guaranteed to be shit! Phantom Menace sold well too before people realised it was shit! N-nigger character!"
>TFA releases. 5 star reviews, record opening day. People love based Johnny B's performance, and he's very well received.
>"o-ok it might not be as bad as we thought, but it's still not going to beat Jurassic World! Disney are finished!"
>Beats Jurassic World, despite being released in off-season and no Chinese release.
>"J-just wait until based RLM eviscerates it for being A New Hope ripoff in a Mr Plinkett review! You'll f-fucking see then Starfags!"
>Mike loves it. RLM approve and think it has saved the Star Wars franchise from the prequels.
>"FUCKING SHIT FILM, MARY SUE JEW SHIT. PREQUEL LOVE THREAD. WHO FUCKING LOVES ATTACK OF THE CLONES? I DO. REVENGE OF THE SITH WAS BETTER THAN ROTJ. BASED GEORGE LUCAS. WELL AT LEAST TFA WON'T BEAT AVATAR


The mouthbreathing basement dwellers who strive to be contrarian have been backed into a corner really, they started so verbose. So confident that the film would be a flop, not break any records and would be panned by critics. Slowly as TFA has BTFO them on every conceivable level, they've been reduced to adopting some bizarre cult-like contrarian attitude to the prequels, proclaiming them as underrated gems, and trying to push some kind of narrative where if TFA doesn't beat Avatar, it's somehow failed, despite already being a record breaking movie and saving Star Wars.
