    Makes sense. Those people are ancient. The 6 movies are fine it is the crap Disney stuff that sucks. Apparently I am a “bad” Star Wars fan if I don’t subscribe to DRM based streaming where you own nothing. Also the idea that there is a story line after the end is dumb and poorly done.

        They are definitely more of an appeal to pathos. Unlike the sequels the prequels go from good to evil. It is a sad story plays out that ultimately leads into the sequels.

          I feel like people don’t give 3 enough credit for really going there with the tragic ending, fully committing to having everything go to shit to set up the original trilogy

        They are, the dialogue is absolutely horrendous. There is a reason is has been memed to death.

        That said young kids enjoy it. Sabers go wonwon, blasters go pew pew. And watch them go crazy for that pod race scene.

          And now they’ve been memed so much that some have turned around and decided they were great movies all along. It’s pretty funny

            That is a funny phenomenon. Maybe there are also more and more people who watched it as younger kids and have a better appreciation than those of us who watched them as adults.

          They are, the dialogue is absolutely horrendous.

          “I wish I could wish away my feelings”

          “I’ve been dying a little bit each day since you came back into my life”

        I can get chill and watch 5 of the 6. I refuse the jar jar movie. I heard his goddamn patois one time in theaters and it was more than enough.

        I like the alternate order which mixes the two trilogies together: ep 4,5,2,3,6. No ep 1! boooooo!
