Only things I can remember was ridiculously long racing scene, Jar-jar binks, Darth Vader screaming nooooo when his wife dies. People are just gonna hate on ep. 7-9 just because of unrealistic expectations, snobbishness, people wearing Fedoras. i dunno man, it's the only movie i walked out on, cos it was just so bad, i was bored out of my mind. I went n got some chinese, then went home n played starcraft thats not really an argument, b/c you turned a girl down and went play starcraft once

But that was different, was practicing for a big BO27 showdown vs my flatmate (Tiltyboy), and he had already beat me at pretty much everything else. So this was my time to shine.

Have some respect yo. It seems like they were like "cool we got the starwars name! we just made a shit ton of money! Now let's figure out what to make the story about" instead of "yeah we got a cool concept we believe in, let's get behind this!" There's no risk to Disney as long as there's an 8 out of 10 action movie behind the name. Very unlike the original motivations, risk, and pressure that surrounded the shooting of A New Hope. I feel like a troll writing this out tbh and although I'm cynical about media... the idea of new films just has me apathetic. Shouldn't effect my life so why write about it? I dunno. Cheers!

You're right that this will be a money train for Disney but if its any consolation the CEO of Disney has said they will not even show the Disney logo in the credits nor has it been "Disney-fied" so I'm hoping they actually came up with a good story.

Personally, I loved JJ Abrams' Star Trek movies (the first one being one of my all-time favorite movies) so I have faith he has the ability to make a great action space movie with a good story.

Yeah, I understood what VanDerMeyde meant. I just like them more, not trolling. They're all good tho

no point in arguing if it's gonna be good or not..we are all gonna go watch it anyways.

and it will prob be entertaining nonetheless.

Sounds like you're describing bad porn.

No way. How can anyone above 12 year old like the prequels more than 4-6

Without clicking on the link yet I'm guessing it's redlettermedia's Ep1 review (all of their prequel reviews were hilarious imo.) If I'm wrong... I will not edit. In regards to your question, you will have to ask ggplz!

Regardless ggplz I respect your opinion because I bet you catch a lot of flack but can also not want to question or even wonder about it because it would drive me insane . The fact is, things like this (people can like the prequels more?!) is part of the reason I stated earlier I'm not going to watch or hype the new star wars... I already have too many useless opinions, arguements and feelings dedicated to a fictional series that can rightfully be declared pointless, sad, cynical, "hater" status, hipster status, or overall pathetic by others.

Thus, being aware of this and unable to just "let it go" and accept these things without mental anxiety and "wtf dude are you serious?!?" (which is another option) and being in agreement with "dude wtf stop taking a movie series and other people's enjoyment so seriously," I'm just going to entirely avoid anything that will fuel the fire of my unhelpful mental energy that has no bearing on or benefit to my actual life.

Better to not have watched and thus have no opinion or investment over the topic than to have watched and be irritated when I hear people gushing over it. With nearly everything now I can bite my tongue but it feels wrong to do so with Star Wars for some reason. That inner rage hipster indeed comes out. I hope you can respect my honesty. A better man would just bite his tongue and see it how it is.

And if it does end up good enough for to gush over... ignorance will be my bliss. Ep IV-VI was all I needed for Star Wars. Respect!

Yeah you can go crazy going over all that stuff, probably a good idea for you to just chill and when it comes out do what you feel

Seems like a non problem lol, watch, if you think it's poop, ok, then it's poop for you, doesn't really matter what other people think!!

Should have seen this one time, I was fanboying over Mr.Robot, then these evil ppl came and told me it was shit, but nu uh, i didn't buy into that shit, I just shook my head, and labeled them as noobs at rating series (in my head, no need to be too much of a douche), and kept enjoying the shit outta it!!!

Ep 4-6 and particularly ep 4 was really about being a movie ahead of its time. No one knew what Star Wars was and boom, comes that intro + battleship, special effects that captivated alot of people.

This was far before the majority of people on this forum old enough to have been able to be truly awed by the Star Wars experience aside from understanding it was a big deal from things like sales data, afi lists, pop culture prevalence, etc all after the fact that it's huge already..

I personally thought the Anakin character in ep 2,3 did a pretty good job.

same his singsong whining really captured the way the audience felt about the "films," he's a great artist to be able to capture that

you know the only two actors to win an oscar for playing the same character?

Yep, a good laugh + i pretty much 100% agree about how he felt / his view on all 3

Their Indiana Jones 4 review was also very good XD.

His dialogue is so fucking terrible and he doesnt have a clue how to make side characters (jarjar) believable. He should have left it at 4-6 which were brilliant and then give the project to someone who wouldn't cast adult Anakin. I love what JJ did to Star Trek movies. The trailer has a really sick feel to it like its a legit story again. All the legit star wars fans seem really excited about it.

i hate star wars fanboys. star wars is very entertaining but the movies are crap really. the plot from 1-6 has a lot of holes and the dialogues are ridiculous. hell i don't even know why i like watching it.
