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.

Posts like this make /tv/ worth not nuking.

Empire Strikes Back is probably the most overrated movie in existence and the prequels are genuinely really cool movies. If everybody could drop their ideas of what Stars Wars should be and just look at them as movies it should be clear. TFA is just junk wearing a stormtrooper outfit and the prequels are exciting, cutting edge stuff.

Honestly I'll take bad ideas and mediocre execution (episode 1) over good ideas and the worst execution (episode 2). Episode 2 could have been soooo much better, but the pacing, janky directing/writing/acting, and unnatural love plot was just too much.

>Luke literally does nothing for 95% of the movie and then gets his shit pushed in after an incredibly bland duel.
do you really believe this. Luke actually trains and holds his own against Vader until he pisses him off and grazes him, granted he was beaten before that but resisted even though there was nowhere to go. Vader spares him because he's his father and he wants to literally rule the galaxy with him bf Luke is strong with the force because Yoda has been physically and mentally training his ass. Compared to rey who goes an entire movie doing Rotj level Luke force abilities and saber abilities without any training bc that would be boring? fuck you, and this isn't even about 7

>that horrible helicopter shot

literally the worst decision in all of star wars history
>>
>>67230791
Oh Jesus, I forgot about that.
I honestly thought that the projectionist accidentally put in a review copy of the movie with unfinished editing when that happened.
It felt like any moment the camera is going to pan away and Morgan Freeman is going to start talking about the majesty of nature, and educate me on how the grand rock formations of those islands were created over hundreds of thousands of years.

>everyone loves TFA
Welcome to /tv/ I take it you have just gotten hear and have not read any of the threads that have been posted about TFA ever since the movie came out.

Please do not say lies about no one hating FTA because fact is majority here do. Just start a thread and ask "did you like this movie" and be presently surprised.

If by "everyone loves FTA" you mean that even those not from /tv/ do, then please visit the IMDB forum and be surprised again at all the negativity it has gotten: most of this being how much JJ ripped off ANH and even JJ himself stated in a recent interview that some will consider FTA a direct copycat - so you see: even if knows the truth of how much he failed at creating a good Episode 7.
>>
>>67230791
Nothing wrong with the helicopter shot, it promises more to come it is star wars.

I agree I loved the ending frame of Episode 7

I liked the helicopter shot too. Idk why it triggers people so much. Maybe theyre still used to the boring static camerawork of the prequels?

i hope this comment is satire that was an embarrassing read
>>
>>67231040
Fuck off it was perfect. Wait until 29th of march when movie is out
>>
>>67231141
If you're being honest:
It's less that it's a bad shot (although from memory it shook way more than it should've it was like a 70s aerial shot) and more that it was one shot too many.
The whole "slowly look at eachother and then hold out the thing and continue to look at eachother, and now the camera is going around the island as they look at eachother and hold the thing" thing felt like it belonged in an "Airplane!" style parody of dramatic scenes, than in an actual movie.
>>
>>67231234
If they made the scene shorter then it would hav looked less goofy as they end on a long aerial shot
>>
>>67231208
Oh boy a tracking shot made in a computer with zero actual camerawork, so impressive

It drew it out way too long, and it made it feel over indulgent.

Almost, almost perfect. Wouldn't say 7 is greater or equal to 3, it's just greater. And 2 really just is the worst.

>>67231345
Episode 7 will always be last on my list due to it being unoriginal and a rip off of ANH. Yes it had some great acting better than the prequels, great camera work but if JJ had wrote a more original script and actually edited it better with better pacing and "some" politics so we know how the fuck the New Order was able to build the starkiller base without any resources after the entire Empire was destroyed.. then I would rate it higher. But at this moment without an extended cut, the movie fails at telling a story whilst the prequels told you everything about Anakin's childhood to know who he was (apart from who his father was as the non canon Darth Plageuis book explains).

For FTA we get a Mary Sue who is good at everything whilst JJ did such a bad job at explaining why she is so good... okay so she used flight simulators which the novelization explains BUT the movie doesn't at all explain this! What the absolute fuck JJ!?

JJ was either high or drugs or just only cared about making a Michael Bay action film with bad pacing that gives no good backstory into each character that would cause us to care for each.

Why do we care for Rey when she is never in any danger? Luke failed heaps of times in the OT yet Rey is good at everything.

For fuck sake there would have never been any mary sue reference if JJ had directed a scene showing Rey reading an old book about the Jedi and how to do force powers. THEN we as the audience would understand how she knew about everything.

Fucking JJ you had ONE JOB!!
>>
>>67227528
V > IV ≥ VI > II ≥ III > I

Anyone who doubts it sucks cocks by choice.

III had a lot of retarded shit, laughable meme dialog, nonsensical plot twists, and Padame's death and the NOOOOOOOO sealed the deal. And lets not forget how Ankin became Vader.

I is at the bottom only because its skipable, it doesn't really add anything to the series, but it does fuck up the lore and gets the whole prequels started on a bad path.

I haven't seen VII, I wasn't that interested and I didn't want to support fanfiction and send Disney the wrong message, I'll DL after the Blurays are released. And I saw all the prequels and the re-release of VI in theaters.
>>
>>67231511
Meanwhile you love the prequels, where anakin is in no danger because we know what's going to happen and they rip off a ton from the original trilogy

The final shot OF ROTS is a ripoff of the binary sunset
>>
>>67227528
>IV and V equal
>well, okay
>VI equal to a more boring ripoff of an already existing movie
Yeah, no, you're wrong. BETTER THAN, not EQUAL.
>>
>>67232438
Is it a rip off if its from the same guy who makes them?

One problem with the prequels, besides the shitty story, is that they are so far from the originals.
I'm not of the prequel defense force, but at least he tried something new.
>>
>>67232478
>he fell for the "George lucas created star wars" meme

And the prequels aren't original, their entire existence is based on a knowledge of the original trilogy. At least the sequel trilogy can now go it's own way now that they restarted the universe and got everyone back on board
