We are actually in what will eventually be considered a golden age for star wars right now.

New movies coming out yearly is exciting and fresh. I'm sure it will get old eventually but for now its awesome to finally see it after ~10 years since Episode III.

We are also at the beginning of an entirely new continuity, with new content being released every month for fans of not just only the OT, but also the Prequels and the Sequel trilogy.

Not to mention, being a new continuity, all of the stories we are getting are pretty high quality.
They haven't quite reached the level of the best the old EU had to offer, but it sure isn't as bad as the old EUs worst. Lost Stars, Tarkin, Lords of the Sith are all awesome. Not to mention the comics which, even though the ongoings aren't that good, find awesome stories through the one-offs and mini-series.

And on top of ALL THAT, Star Wars Rebels is finally finding its footing and producing some episodes that are even up to the quality of the theatrical movies (see picture related)

I unironically agree.

This is effectively a second renaissance revitalization of the franchise.

I honestly haven't been this excited about Star Wars in ages.

And I don't care if the leads are Catniss Sues, as long as the stories themselves are an adventure then I'm game.

It's only three and a half years until episode IX. Disney will keep on pumping out trilogies until the brand is meaningless. Episode VII gave me a bad feeling it will be the Marvel model of constant teasing with no pay-off. It told us nothing about the bad guys, nothing about the galaxy, Han dies, and we see Luke's face for 30 seconds. Next episode we'll probably get some cryptic clues about Snoke and a hint that someone is related to someone else, plus five more mysteries to string people along. It was nice going back to the same universe for the nostalgia trip but there's obviously no vision except pandering, and that doesn't lead to inspiring movies.

I don't know how people don't realize that 7 was made specifically to play it safe.

It was a rehash of anh to reintroduce audiences to the franchise, not because they were lazy.

Look at the milenium falcon scene with Fin. Its LITERALLY a shot-for-shot recreation of the scene in ANH. It was done deliberately with intention.

Its obvious that Rogue One isn't going to be a rehash, so whats the worry? And I seriously doubt that Episode 8 will be

It wasn't bad because it was a rehash, it was bad because it was criminally stupid. The whole plot runs on coincidence. The original characters feel shoehorned in. It's a product. It's used to sell Doritios to braindead faggots like you.

>>68623398

"A Golden Age", maybe. Only in the mainstream, however. The original Fandom will always consider the early 2000s as "THE Golden Age". That was the height of Expanded Universe content, not least due to the extraordinary video games coming out at that time.

Star Wars as a franchise is far, FAR beyond film at this point. The most highly praised media to come from the franchise are generally the Jedi Academy, KOTOR, and Battlefront games.

Everything after the OT has been cynical squeezing of money out of the franchise. It's just a commercial exercise at this point. The inspiration and creativity etc are all gone. They are simply making them because there are millions of idiots with no taste who will give them money for making them.

I casually enjoyed the previous Star Wars movies while younger. Entertaining, nice soundtrack, iconic visuals.

Episode VII is better than all of them. Anyone who doesn't see this probably calls themselves a "fan" and have rose tinted nostalgia goggles with 10cm thick lenses. If this was released first and the others were prequels, people would praise the character of Darth Vader/Anakin but recognize that everything else was handled better in Episode VII. It just had the benefit of hindsight, and not being controlled by one lunatic man alone. Ask any decent person (not someone easily wooed by superior CGI and flashy action sequences, just a sane movie enthusiast that can handle different eras having different standards) in 10 years who is young enought to discover them all at once, and they'll be confused that this is even a subject of debate.

Yes, safe, bland, homeginized, commity-approved Star Wars for all. No big risks, nothing ventured, nothing gained. More assembly-line entertainment for the masses. No experimental stories, no goofy backstories for background characters that don't affect anything, no silly adventures. Everything is 100% serious and nothing will be treated as anything less than that.

Enjoy your new Star Wars.

So why are you defending The Force Awakens?
The actors gave out terrible performances, outside Ridley and Isaacs. It's just too bad that Rey was a terrible character.
The plot was a jumbled mess, and the movie tried to distance itself from the prequels so bad that you literally need to read the novelization of the movie to understand WHY anything is happening.
Add to this the fucking terrible forced humor, most of which completely ruin the mood of the scenes, and the constant pandering to make it perfectly clear that you're watching a fucking Star Wars movie.
Nien Nunb and Ackbar might as well have looked directly at the camera and yelled REMEMBER ME FROM THE ORIGINAL TRILOGY?

His skin doesn't melt on contact with the atmosphere, he just can't breathe in it, take in enough oxygen. Two seconds without a helmet doesn't matter, if you think you would instantly die if exposed to a oxygen low atmosphere for 1... 2... seconds, then you're wrong.

It would've been if Disney didn't show their intentions of being completely unimaginative and stale in their first movie.

lmao you're retarded. Rebels animation quality is far worse than TCW which wasn't that good to be perfectly honest. Disney should have just axed everything after ROTJ, all of the stuff between ROTS and ANH, pruned back the stuff between AOTC and ROTS to produce a more coherent timeline and left most of the older EU material alone.

Instead they clear cut the whole thing leaving nothing and no, most of the stuff they've introduced is mediocre to bad playing on some of the worst themes of the old EU combined with something else entirely. The new Anakin comics are absolute dogshit compared to the dark horse stuff and remind me a lot of the style of modern marvel, which makes sense since TFA felt like marvel quipflickery and Disney owns both of these 'nerd' brands now.

There is no problem with them rehashing the monomythic story behind ANH.

There is a problem with rehashing virtually everything about the story, down to an evil empire searching for a droid, landing on a desert planet where some bumpkin finds the droid and eludes capture in the literally the same ship Luke did (POTTERY!), with the climax being an attack on a massive battle station.

TFA's issue was that it stayed too close to star wars and not close enough to the monomyth.

They spin because it catches their adversary off guard, and probably has to be active for the repulsorlifts to work

The rey character was clearly written to be the solo offspring. It was supposed to be Ben in her role. After the script was done Paul Marketing walked in and said "You should make one of the leads a female, that's popular right now" so they quickly changed everything to make Rey a girl.

If Rey was Ben Solo then the entire movie makes more sense. You only have to change a few small things like dialogue which often gets changed on set.

Kylo Rey is a better character. Ben Solo being good at everything makes sense.

Those aren't quips. They were not intended to be funny in the context of the movie.

Iron Man calling Spiderman underoos, is a quip. It was meant to be funny both in the theater, and the movie universe.
Poe saying "who talks first?" Is also a quip because it was humorous to not only the theater, but Poe

>OT
Masterful telling of the monomyth, legitimately solid films providing a solid balance of pulp and philosophy, literally providing something for everyone to love

>Prequels
A deep exploration into the mind of George Lucas as he performs a massive social experiment on his audience. He evokes passions, hatreds, all by adding a talking fish man character. Filmed with mostly bad actors, full of gaudy special effects, Lucas is channeling the spirit of German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche here, who once said that the taller a tree stands, the deeper its roots must go. The prequels are the deep, dark and dank roots of the original trilogy and as such had to stand opposed to it. Through viewing the prequels as they are, a dark reflection, a shadow of the greatness that lies above them, we gain new insights into the value and the beauty of the original trilogy.

These movies prove once and for all that George Lucas has ascended to the level of meta-artist, he is beyond his class and has likely left humanity itself behind. As he finished this glorious experiment he forced himself to eject it from his mind to clean the slate for something new.

>Disneyshit

Literally Jewish executives trying to shove as many quips and token X characters in as possible to please the MCU audience and the nerd demographic. Design by board, color by numbers choosing JJ Abrams, the most mindlessly loyal purveyor of corporate drivel in the history of cinema to create the introductory flick to advertise their new cash cow. These flicks are so blatant in their exploitation that even Lucas, who had wished to leave this chapter in his life behind him, feels remorse that his art is being tarred with this filth.

At least the few, the true devotees of George will know the TRUE canon.

I should add that the incompleteness, the loose ends left all over the prequels are also channeling Nietzsche's philosophy, as Nietzsche believed the most inspirational things were pain and perceptions of the incomplete. He left the field open for the minds and imaginations of his viewers to fill in the blanks, for authors to bridge gaps and other artists to suffer as they tried to wrap their heads around the genius of this man's work. Most fail to do so and become bitter and resentful, they curse his works. But the few, the privileged, these aristocratic souls can see past the surface level fanboy delusions and into a body of work that is beyond comparison, the Lucas era EU. We can see the truth of this work and the spirit of Lucas flowing through it.

Compare with the Hebraic spirit which flows through the new Disney productions, "Rebels" and TFA. Gone is the daimon of George Lucas. Gone are his charms, his masterful execution and passionate direction. How many memes from TFA still survive, less than six months after its release? Compare to the deep network of memes developed by the PT and you will begin to see the light, you will hear his daimon whispering in your ear.
