Facts I feel like star trek suffers from the same issue now. I like both franchise and both are having this issue now imo.Holup holup holup holup.....How on EARTH is the Dook/Yoda scene a bad scene?
The entire theater went absolutely HAM when Yoda pulled the strap and started doing work
The prequels may have had bad dialogue and execution at times, but the story made sense and it flowed well within the grand scheme of Star Wars
TLJ was not even a Star Wars movie, none of that trash made any sense in the context of the rest of the series or even the movie that came out just before it
It's always subjective to say what is and what isn't needed in a movie. George wrote it in so It's needed.
To look a bit deeper though: remember in ESB when Yoda tells Luke that letting Han and his gang potentially die might be worth it if it means Luke stays and becomes the Jedi he should be?
This scene is almost a direct parallel. Yoda is throwing everything back at Dooku (LITERALLY, from the bricks to the lightning to every strike) and Dooku hits him where he knows it hurts - he drops the pillar on Yoda's favorite padawan (Obi) and the chosen one.
Yoda decides to save them instead of fighting Dooku. If he had defeated Dooku he would've discovered the Death Star early, and potentially everything about Palpatine's involvement.
Yoda has to carry that decision with him and by the time Luke has to make the decision and qsks Yoda "and sacrifice my friends?" Yoda tells him:
"If you honor what they fight for....yes"
Anakin and Obi-Wan literally fight each other over why they're chasing Dooku (Anakin wants to save Padme, AGAIN a direct parallel to Luke going to save Han/Leia) and Obi shouts at him "If we stop Dooku now we can end this war".
Yoda does exactly what Obi-Wan told Anakin not to do, he saves his students instead of stopping Dooku.
George is a master storyteller and the sequels aint got shyt on any of the prequels
shyt WAS ASS!

If this were poker, this would be the equivalent of raising with a 2-7 offsuit breh...
The Yoda scene isn't even bad, its universally loved by the fanbase, I don't even know why you included it...
The only scene approaching the level of bad as the TLJ scenes mentioned is I don't like sand...
You clearly value effects and "cinematography" over everything else, you've made that clear at this point...
How was that fight "not needed in the movie" when Dooku was Yoda's apprentice though?
It also foreshadowed Obi Vs Anakin who was also turned to dark side by Palps...
Red Shield
Global Domination
TLJ has the three worst scenes in Star Wars franchise history...
bu bu bu bu but the cinematography...
that Leia shyt took me completely out of the movie...

Not true we all loved rogue one and the mandalorian
TFA is fukking awful
At the end of the OG Star Wars the rebels fukking WON. Palpatine and Vader are dead and the Empire is destroyed
SO WHY ARE THEY RESISTANCE FIGHTERS AGAIN in the new trilogy
They never even gave a proper explanation of how the New Order came into power
We never got to see Leia, Han, and Luke hanging out and just chilling after bringing peace to the galaxy. We never got to see Luke at full power as a Jedi Master. We never got to see Han and Leia and their family interacting
So much wasted potential

Poetical Poltergeist
Precise and cold hearted
Right. They're just in love with the lore and force themselves to call movies like rogue one classic so they don't lose all hope.

We wouldn’t need editors if what was needed was subjectiveIt's always subjective to say what is and what isn't needed in a movie. George wrote it in so It's needed.
