Can you actually articulate a reason why?
>>
>>68084733
I already have. It's genuinely a boring film.

After the Hoth battle (which is good, but not that great), it feels like nothing actually interesting happens up until the Luke and Vader fight, which the whole thing builds up to. Even the Yoda stuff isn't all that interesting to be quite honest.

I've heard people say they like it because of "world-building." Honestly, though, there's very little world building in Empire. To take Yoda as an example, we don't learn that much more about the Force through him that we didn't get in Kenobi's short speech. We see, like, two or three Jedi exercises. Nothing terribly interesting or enlightening, just some minor details. So what other world building is there? We learn there's a planet called Hoth and a Cloud City. Oh, and we get a glimpse at the Emperor. That's pretty much it.

Another thing I've heard is character development, but the characters were all really developed in A New Hope. We just sort of see Han and Leia's relationship, which started with flirting in A New Hope, become something more serious. Even then, the development of their relationship is them bickering, Han getting creepy on the ship, and then her saying she loves him when she's about to lose him. If you think about it, Vader is the only character who gets any real development, he's the only one we learn anything new about personality-wise, and even that's mostly hinted at.

The ending to it is total shit as well. It ends on the lamest "to be continued" ever. It was even bigger bullshit if you saw this on its actual release and had to wait years for Jedi (which was also a let-down).

Basically, Empire has a decent beginning and a cool final fight, but a middle that drags and an ending that sucks.

Luke has to deal with the psychological strain of deciding whether to listen to yoda, the only Jedi alive, or go save his friends whose faces he can literally see calling out to him. Han Solo has to decide whether he will take off to save his own skin or stick around with the rebels.

All the decisions are made for Luke in anh, at least when put in the context of being a blockbuster protagonist.

>>68085485
The characters, except for Vader, were developed in A New Hope. If I asked you to describe Luke's personality, you wouldn't say anything about him that we didn't see in A New Hope. Same goes for any of the characters. None of those characters grow beyond their initial characterizations in A New Hope.

The only one who does is Vader, but only because he has so little personality in A New Hope (he's pretty much just a bad guy, but it works for that film).

>Luke has to deal with the psychological strain of deciding whether to listen to yoda, the only Jedi alive, or go save his friends whose faces he can literally see calling out to him.
No, he doesn't. It literally goes like this
LUKE: I had a vision that my friends would die. Should I go save my friends?
YODA: Well, visions aren't 100% true.
LUKE: I'm gonna go save them because they're my friends.
YODA: No, you shouldn't.
LUKE: I have to. They're my friends.
YODA: No. Don't.
KENOBI: Yoda is right. Stay.
LUKE: I'm going now.
YODA: Okay, bye.

>Han Solo has to decide whether he will take off to save his own skin or stick around with the rebels.
That was in A New Hope.

This

This is my objectively correct opinion

ANH >= ESB (A New Hope is the only truly flawless standalone Star Wars film)

Then ROTJ > ROTS = TFA

Return of the Jedi is majorly flawed but still has god-tier scenes like jabbas palace and the throne room. Revenge of the sith is a hilarious B-movie that also dares to take on bigger ideas and has fantastic music and designs. TFA gets to be here because it's a competently made movie, but it being such a dissapointing ripoff with plot holes means it can't be higher.

Then finally TPM = AOTC for obvious reasons, both are awful in their own ways, and both have some redeeming scenes (maul, jango). I still think they're fun movies with great music and sound design, or at least better than the studio-tailored uninspired shit we get today.

This. In a perfect universe, A New Hope is the only Star Wars film ever made.

I just dug that image up. I loved the Genndy Clone Wars and was SO disappointed in Greivous in Episode III because of how amazing he was in that.

Tarkin was a decent read. Hate that they named Sheev, but made me appreciate Tarkin as a character, not just because he was Peter Cushing.

Also, actual Clone Wars show had some fantastic arcs in it.
>>
>>68086054
I think they're interchangeable. ROTS has higher highs but lower lows, and is much bigger in scope.

I like Episode III more

It'll fit right into the fucking garbage with tfa, but we'd better order a dumpster because these shitty sjw wars movies won't be stopping anytime soon.

>>68086216
This. TFA was shameful, unoriginal, lame, and SJW pandering.

Rey is one of the worst characters I've ever seen on screen in a big budget movie.

The good thing is Disney is going to whore out Star Wars worse than Plinketts daughter, so pretty soon this shit will be sucked dry. People are already giving capeshit the finger, it won't take more than 2 more movies and a TV show to kill Star Wars for good.

Watched the original trilogy for the first time like 2 weeks before seeing TFA, so my judgement isn't clouded by nostalgia.

But when Lucas had a strong female in A New Hope, it wasn't SJW pandering because.

But when Lucas had a black guy in Empire and the prequels, it wasn't SJW pandering because.

Sorry, but TFA was pretty good. It's only flaw is being too much like ANH, but ANH is one of the best Star Wars films so that's not really a huge problem.

Strong character with strong development, flaws (gets captured by Vader)

Rey would have killed Vader by overpowering him with force choke after seeing him do it to a storm trooper.

>But when Lucas had a black guy in Empire and the prequels, it wasn't SJW pandering because.
Excellent character with clear motivation, some shadiness, a good heart, good character development, and flaws

Protip Boyega was fine.

I said REY.

Kylo is no Vader. Rey would have got owned by Vader.
>>
>>68086421
No it isn't. You're literally being jewed. Most scenes after the first act are a mess, JJ's TV direction is all over the place, the characterization and music is all over the place, and there are plenty of wasted opportunities.

Imagine if Starkiller hadn't fired until Kylo killed Han, bathed in red light- a welcome departure from the ANH ripoff that the movie was after takodakaforesrbiomekodana.

AOTC should be "Step up your dialogue Lucas, Obi-Wan can't be expected to carry the whole fucking film now" Tier

ROTS should be "Did you have a fucking stroke between writing the first half and second half?" Tier

TPM is basically "Learn pacing, drop shitty kid actors and slapstick sidecharacters for the sake of sidecharacters" Tier
>>
>>68086461
>flaws (gets captured by Vader)
But Rey got captured by Kylo Ren.

>Rey would have killed Vader
No. Not even close. Kylo Ren is no Vader. He hasn't even completed his training yet. Vader is much, much stronger in A New Hope than Kylo Ren was in The Force Awakens.

Keep in mind, Han Solo sneaks up and shoots Vader in A New Hope. Han Solo almost kills Vader (basically, the only reason he doesn't is because Lucas wanted him for the next film).
>>
>>68086584
Those aren't tiers though, that's just naming the most glaring flaws of each movie.
>>
>>68086584
TPM had heart and genuine effort in it. He actually built sets and there were a lot more practical effects.

With AOTC and ROTS, it's clear his heart just wasn't into it and he barely even tried. I don't blame him. After everyone shit on TPM, I'd probably just phone it in, too.
