Watched a bootleg...without nitpicking, it was decent and ended the saga the way I figured it would.

Always be aware that Ep. IV was initially a popcorn, sci-fi standalone...

I love how some fans are trying to pivot the Sequel trilogy backlash towards the prequels now:russ:

Nah, y'all need toughen up and own this shyt. If you love the movies then defend them, don't bring up other shyt tryna deflect on some Drake shyt :ufdup:

I feel like I've defended this movie more than y'all in here.

Prequels were dope and fully explained Palpatine’s rise to power. shyt was like House of Cards in space.
Damn you make a good point the prequels were just as much about Palpatine rise to power as they were about Anakin fall to the darkside it like if you go back and watch the movies you can see Palpatine making power moves to gain more power and social standing in the galactic senate so they would make him the Emperor :ohhh:

You must be one of those guys who thought the prequels were actually good movies
:umad:I like them better now since this shyt trilogy. I love Roth, always thought the first 2 of the prequel series were just very boring movies. But I can respect that there was a legit story and vision the movies were working towards. The story was never the problem in the prequel trilogy, it was the execution. The story of this new trilogy is confused and just plain bad. On top of it being bad as a singular trilogy, it also retroactively fukks up the 2 other trilogies :snoop:. Even if you hated the prequel series, you had the OG trilogy to fall back on. Since this is a sequel, it fukks up everything :beli:

To be fair the same thing can be said about Anakin’s redemption and now it turns out Anakin didn’t even kill the Emperor. :skip:Vader’s atrocities were much worse that Kylo Ren. :picard:

it really boggles my mind that this trilogy is all over the place.

Like was KK at LF for for the previous trilogies? I read/heard she was an exec prod for BttF trilogy...so how in the fukk could she bungle a trilogy?! She got one of the best examples to to draw from!
Shes the single most successful producer in film history...even over feige...but when producing spielberg movies you dont do shyt but make sure money from the studio is being budgeted correctly in the film. Here she was charged with trying to be some what creative and couldnt do it. I Just dont understand, unless he lied in the interview, how u lay out plans for episode 7 to RJ and he gives you his ideas, and you still hire him.

Revenge Of The Sith was dark as fukk :dead: if they kept this type of energy with the previous 2 prequel films and improved the writing it might've been :whew:

Shame on all the nikkas in here that said the Sequels >>> the Prequels. The prequels had heart, they told great stories. fukk this made by committee money grab.

I agree man. As much as I disagree with some of the stuff in the prequels at least they gave us the Clone Wars animated show. Plus Revenge of the Sith still ranks above all these films in the new trilogy.
