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.

Anakin: You are so…beautiful.
Padme: It’s only because I’m so in love.
Anakin: No. No, it’s because I’m so in love with you.
Padme: Then love has blinded you?
Anakin: Well…that’s not exactly what I meant.
Padme: But it’s probably true.

nah dude. quips felt real and like the old star wars back and forths, still maintained a serious tone for the most part.
marvel flicks are cgi dependant shit shows with no care or tender touch. star wars fans actually care about the quality of the story not just bullshit shoehorned references and ebic action scenes

3 and 1 would have been much higher if they had competent actors

Empire Strikes Back was always my favorite and I honestly feel that Force Awakens gives it a run for its money. Granted I'd have to see Force Awakens again to make my final opinion on it.
Also it's not that I think that Attack of the Clones is "better" than Phantom Menace. Both movies are fucking horrible. I just found Clones to be much more tolerable than Menace. Hayden Christensen's shitty acting was much easier to put up with than Jar Jar Binks.

There was literally nothing wrong with the inclusion of the Ewoks.

>>64023763
Stop being a faggot redditor, 7 is barely better than the prequels.
>>64024656
They only hate them because JJ hates them. Before that they loved RotJ.
>>64026024
Dunno, one of my best friends has hated Ewoks ever since he watched Star Wars for the first time, before he knew Abrams was directing the new movie (about 2 years ago). He also browses /tv/, so I'm basically convinced that hating Ewoks is just a dumb /tv/ meme.
>>64024656
>>64024796
Not only were the Ewoks only created just to pander to children in order to sell toys, the final battle in ROTJ was originally supposed to take place at Kashyyyk, the homeworld of the Wookies.
The focus would've been on Chewbacca trying to help rally the Wookies to fight the Empire. It would've given Chewbacca more depth to his character rather than leaving him as just Han's sidekick, and would've made more sense and would've been more awesome to see the Empire get there asses kicked by an armada of angry and pissed off Wookies.
They could've gone into depth of Wookie culture. Fuck they could have even had some cool scene where Chewie takes control and becomes the Alpha Wookie in a fight against a tribe that supported the Empire. I dunno, anything would've been better than fucking Ewoks and fucking C-3PO being the one who rallied them to their side.
It's obvious that the addition of Ewoks was a last minute change to the script that fatfuck Lucas added to make the movie more catered to children. Don't believe me? Compare the words "Wookie" and Ewok". They're anagrams. Fuck Ewoks, and fuck George Lucas.

6 actually sticks the landing, only low points are the fucking ewoks and making Han a joke.
7 is rehash of 4.
3 actually has the final duel that everybody wanted to see and Sheev was at his most fun.
2 has less Jar Jar, not even whiny wooden Anakin is as hateful.
1 is audiovisual ebola.
>>64023494
My sentiment exactly.
>star wars 4
George Lucas is the master of oversimplification. All the characters in Star Wars are terribly black and white and not a single one even remotely leans towards the second dimension. The cheap trick to use plain text as exposition for the upcoming events is a slap in the face of cinema. The entire purpose of film is to convey stories through dialogue and images.Lucas doesn't get that.His writing skills are pre-school.
>star wars 5
The most over rated movie of all time. Pseudo nerds will have you believing that george lucas ruined this movie that was once so great even though they probably didnt even see the original version until after the new ones came out. You can find these geek posers at your local comic cons repeating everything plinkett says wearing there han shot first shirt thinking they sound like they know what there talking about, but take it from me these movies are on par with bollywood scifi shit dont waste your time.
>star wars 6
Let's see, for an adventure, the pacing is mostly off, with lots of periods where nothing happens, and even the action scenes are nothing special. The plot also seems fairly contrived. Say, since this is the final battle between good and evil and all that, the emperor's preparations seem fairly rushed. You'd expect more care to have been taken in keeping that shield intact, for example. Also, since his grand scheme is to turn Luke Skywalker to the dark side of the force, isn't he trying to kill him too soon after Luke offers some resistance?
>>64026624
correct
2 is worse than one
2 has nothing redeeming about it at all
