it's time star wars fans realize the franchise as always been trash

[Days of Future Piff]

These >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any prequel lightsaber duels

There was way more tension between the characters-- you had suspense, rebellion, defiance, revelation, sacrifice, redemption, etc.

The fights actually looked and felt like two dudes really having a sword fight-- you could see people actually getting bumps and bruises, and so on. It felt like more of a real fight than the corny, over-choreographed videogame fights in the prequels.

Fighting three feet above molten lava and not getting vaporized

Having Yoda fight also really ruined his character, and it went against his whole philosophy in Empire. The whole point of his character was to teach Luke that there's more to being a Jedi than swinging a cool laser sword around. He was dropping gems about doing over trying, respecting life, having spiritual fortitude, and how wars don't make one great. It wasn't about being big or small, or who the best warrior was-- it was all about the Force. The force was all you needed. So naturally, they don't have him drop any gems in the prequels-- he just fights a bunch of wars.

Overall, the original trilogy, while dated in some aspects were much better movies-- the effects weren't always the prettiest, but the characters were far more memorable and emotionally resonant. Han, Luke, Leia, Obi Wan, 3PO and R2, Chewbacca, Lando, Wedge, Boba Fett, Jabba the Hutt, the Emperor, Yoda-- all of these characters had golden, memorable moments that stick with you for years after you watch the movies.

Even Greedo was more memorable than most of the characters in the prequels (not counting Ben/Anakin and the other characters who appeared in the original films) and Greedo was blatantly flabby and sick

Who's going to relate to Ki Adi Mundi, Shaak Ti, or Plo Koon in 15-20 years?

I know I'm wilding out with the videos, but are we REALLY putting the prequels over these classic piff moments? I'm disappointed

Episode 1 can be thrown to the bushes simply for

Spoiler

Telling us that the Force was just you interacting with a bunch of damn bacteria that lived in everything

Also how the hell couldn't Vader feel in the Force

Spoiler

that Leia was his daughter

in the first damn scene of the movie

I love the original trilogy but Lucas lucked up big time after the first one and just made shyt up as he went along to get as much money out of the series. The entire prequels were nothing but a cheap cash grab and we all went for it.

 

[bobbiewishbone]

I think they might use ILM or WETA for the special FX. i like jj and star trekreboot was popping. i just hope he keeps shyt centered and not use those damn lens flares. he got to cut that shyt out. Disney gave this nikka a chance lets not fukk it up. I got faith, trust he doesnt wanna be the nikka to fail cause he's gonna hear about it the next day. lol.

Yeah, I'm hoping Disney doesn't CGI these to death.

Muppet Yoda > CGI Yoda

star wars is as big as it is BECAUSE OF EVERYTHING ELSE BESIDES THE MOVIES...

lets keep it real.. if those 3 movies dropped, and we never heard another word about it, they'd be cult classics.. lucas had ZERO ideas on the whole universe and backstories and all that shyt



other people came and wrote book after book.. making up stories before and after the movies.. making comics.. writing their own personal scripts... then making those into cartoons.. video games.. language books.. encyclopedias... etc etc

that kept it alive and expanded it to so many other places that the first 3 movies couldn't and didn't take it to

if you stop and watch the first 3, it's good entertainment.. it's nothing you'd think would last 40-50 years with thousands of pieces of extra literature on the subject

stand those 3 movies on their own and we gonna act like it was citizen kane or some shyt.. acutally no... I watched citizen kane... that was more overhyped nonsense.. best movie of all time my ass

-thank you based Orson for that magnificent classic

where in the movie does it say her mother's a queen
yall gotta make shyt up, star wars fans are a cult of fools, they complain when the games suck, complain that prequels sucked, will complain the new movies suck, because they didn't come to realization the star war has always been trash

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Breha_Organa

Not that you're going to accept this is a credible source since it wasn't explicitly stated in the movies, but "Breha Organa, born Breha Antilles, was a female Human who was the Queen and Minister of Education of Alderaan at the time of the Galactic Empire's formation".

U loss if u a black man watching that garbage. No nigggas was even in star wars. Fukk I look like disrespecting my ancestors watching that utter trash?

 

[Jax]

Make threads about movies you don't know shyt about, brehs.

Your mom and dad is trash bytch

The first 3 are undisputed classics....don't even really understand threads like this. It's a done deal man. They were solidified in history probably before the OP was born. So you basically wasted your time typing a bunch of shyt that will have zero bearing on reality.

Having said that, "Star Wars" fans need to cut the bullshyt out and accept that the franchise fell completely off. The 3 prequels were horrifically bad. They're 3/6 as far as movies go....that kind of track record would be the nail in the coffin for anything. Imagine if half an album sucked, or 3 out of 6 seasons of a TV series sucked.

Hopefully the new movies get the franchise back on track but it doesn't really matter much since the vast majority of "Star Wars" stans won't admit it ever fell off in the first place.

the prequels were to star wars what:

the wizards years were to michael jordan.
the post-dangerous era was to michael jackson.
the tna years were to hulk hogan.

goats are goats... and their declines never made us forget that.

the prequels just kinda exist in a vacuum now. all is forgiven. it's time to finally move forward now.
