I refuse to accept this whitewashing that the prequels were actually good. It should be a front half of a horse and then a complete clustefuck from then on out
Honestly though, almost every quote people remember is from Episode 3, and I don't think that's a coincidence. That's the one I have the easiest time giving some amount of credit to. Episode 3 was still not good but I often wonder what it would have been like if we got a full prequel trilogy at that quality.
Have you seen the prequels recently? If not I'd genuinely love to hear your report after a rewatch. I think they're total crsp but as I've said before, I don't think there's 3 movies I could have more to say about. I'm not totally sure how to touch on it without going into a whole thing. I mostly like the first movie cause I like weird old Sci fi and 70s movies, empire is a great sequel and a better movie for sure, just doesn't have the personal appeal and I feel about the same as the common man about jedi. Same with the sequels except I'd point out the chemistry between the main characters in force awakens that is never used again, lot of wasted potential trial splitting the 3 mains up all the time. Force Awakens was kinda cool and at leat seemed to be going in a direction and then t wasn't but there was nothing like Dexter Jettster or Qui Gom Jinn's aeird nonsensical gambling addiction
Same. It's literally just the Ewok Line but in the 90s.
I fear the kids born in the 2010s will be saying the same about the sequels. The difference of course is that I'm objectively correct that the prequels were (not amazing, but) perfectly fine movies while the sequels were utter dogshit.
Revenge of the Sith's good. A Phantom Menace is decent, though it has a more childish atmosphere even compared to the rest of the series. Attack of the Clones is mid.
Really, I like the plot of the prequel trilogy but the dialogue writing dropped the ball. I suppose it's also what made the movies meme masterpieces.

Most of Star Wars is mid at best. Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

I still love this stupid franchise, though
It’s ok, I’ll still keep drinking that garbage

I can't argue your point about the Disney Trilogy

Also, Sebulba
They were the first star wars movies I watched as a kid and I still love them

if kids could be made nostalgic for the damn Phantom Menace, they can be made nostalgic for the sequel trilogy
At least Phantom Menace was trying to do something original and coherent. It's a shit execution, but there's a story in there that doesn't suck.
It also had podracing. There should be an entire movie or series that's just about the seedy podracing competitive scene.
All of Star Wars feels like a good story told poorly.
nah, because before you had the prequel movies and like, a show or two of starwars
now they're drowning in it like with capeshit, I doubt much of it will stick out for them

It's a mix of nostalgia, backlash to Disney, and the clone wars show retroactively semi-redeeming the prequels
I mean the ninja turtle movies were dogshit but I still loved them as a child and can enjoy watching them now.
