The sequels being shitty doesn't make the prequels any better you irredeemable cock.

They are equally bad for different reasons.

The prequels are better than The Godfather though

still absolutely incredible they started making these movies without even a rough outline for a story they wanted to tell, not to mention that the people who greenlit all of this make more money than you ever will and still have their jobs

I've seen the third movie twice and I can remember maybe five minutes total of what happens in it and that's only because it was so shit it was funny

Kept hearing about how the slopfather is one of the greatest movies of all time, so I decided to give it a watch, I shut it off after 20 minutes

The prequels still look like garbage. The ST might make some of Lucas's idiosyncrasies more charming in retrospect, but that's different. They're still shit. They're shit in some of the same ways and for similar reasons, even.

I just what to discuss this >>213106593
I don't get how a corporation can spend $700 million and create such a mess. It is fascinating.

The problem with the new sequels is that theyre too goofy, I know star wars have always been a bit goofy, thats part of the fun, but these over do it too much to the point where it doesnt feel like star wars, Kylo Ren is not scary hes just kind of a sad beta goof, while the imperials keep getting made fun of that the menacing aspect is gone.

Part of me thinks it was a spiteful experiment to simply prove that Lucas got lucky by creating a brand that people would simply flock to regardless of quantity. Turns out you have to actually put in some effort

Hollywood has always had a bee in its bonnet about Lucas' indie success and Disney presumably thought it was ain indestructible IP so they could just make up any old shit as they went along and make bank

>without even a rough outline for a story
Lucas had zero idea what would happen in ESB when he made Star Wars and it ended up being the greatest SW movie ever.

It really isnโ€™t. Hollywood is averse to new ideas or risk while at the same time everyone has non-defamation clauses in their contract which means no one can criticize anything internally. Itโ€™s a dead industry spooling out what money it had instead of folding.

Maybe the specifics werenโ€™t worked out exactly but Lucas certainly had ideas for what he wanted to do in future movies.
