I still don't understand how the company whose other studio has been planning out their vast interconnected franchise 10+ years in advance couldn't think that maybe they should write out the general plot of a whole trilogy beforehand.
Yeah, but in a boring corporate way, which the prequels for sure had some of but they seems down level more from the movies, George just knew he had to include toyetic things, the relationship between marketing and films wasn't alllll the way to the point of merchandise dictating the entirety of the movies and George Lucas had unfair amounts of clout. It was the artistic vision of a very boring madman and I salute that at the least.
I have like, an academic interst in the prequels if anything. The content, politics, philosophy and all that and how weirdly bad it was all handled is just an endless source of interest to me. They're just so fucking weird

The sheer gravitas of the incompetence really pisses me off

It also deflects from how big of a trek and Babylon 5 nerd I am
i don't think there's a better way to describe him
Episode IX's plot is so bad I feel I could write something better, and I'm not even overestimating my abilities - just insulting the writer team's.
