Because how he explained that scene gave more meaning to what the prequels were about and also the original trilogy, atleast for me. The sequels were going to inevitably be brought up anyway, which I embrace in a discussion because like it or not, it's canon and a part of Star Wars.

So I can't make a topic about it if I wanted to because it's unnecessary in your eyes? I wanted to share the clip of Filoni, if my opinion on the prequel vs. sequel debate turned you off, oh well, sorry not sorry.

The prequel trilogy definitively stomps the sequels for one reason. It has a coherent story it wants to tell, and does it. To hell with the rest of it.

The sequels were:

A movie that if it wasn't a star wars movie would have been called a rip off of the original star wars.

A filler movie that seemingly deliberately ruined the magic of the series.

A movie without a fucking plot because it was just a quest to find the thing to find the thing to find the thing to find the place to best the bad guy.

I will still watch whatever star were movie comes next, but I might never watch the sequel trilogy again. I feel like none of them is a good standalone movie besides maybe the first, and the others are so disconnected that it barely functions as a trilogy.

100% agree. I have a roommate who is a big Star Wars fan, but he is a blind fanboy and we get into about the sequel trilogy which he still says from day 1 that he enjoyed. To each their own, but his girlfriend pretty much agrees with him on everything and doesnt have her own voice so its me vs them, its infuriating sometimes lol.

Yes, when I was around 14-15. Not even sure if it was real or not though. My friends and I were hanging at a bus stop at night - it's just what we did as kids at that age in our neighborhood in Hawaii, apartments everywhere - my neighborhood is considered the mini-Waikiki on Oahu, little place called Salt Lake (not Utah, look it up). Someone who we knew from Middle School came up and was asking about a girl - forgot her name. I guess he was meeting up with her that night. One of my friends was a gang member, a blood, this dude was a crip. They started talking shit to each other and then he pulled his gun out and started pointing it - I think we all started talking shit on him after that, didn't really faze us. Didn't even think it was real. We were stone out of our mind though lol.

Yes, it's the peak of the prequel trilogy but that doesn't make the rest of it not suck as a whole.

The peak for me before watching this was Episode 3, but the prequels is just a half of the real story of Star Wars (1-6). Some of it was kinda boring cause it was political and whatnot, Jar Jar was annoying yeah, but looking at retrospectively, it made sense and that's enough for me. Sequel Trilogy left a bad taste, it was entertaining sure but it doesn't hold any value in the grand scheme of things. Fire Kennedy and give Filoni her job.

Isn't there a way to prevent this? How are they doing it?

Record a vid of you putting the item in the box and taping it up with the delivery sticker on it so you have proof. Extra work, but that helps your case when dealing with these scammers.

I'll admit the ST movies were entertaining as stand alone movies for the action sequences but judging them as a whole and thinking about it as trilogy just rubs me the wrong way.

Why couldn't we get a struggle between the Emperor and Rey where the Emperor looks to have the upper hand even with force ghost Luke, Obi-Wan, and Yodo by her side... but then Anakin shows up. Why couldn't this happen. That would've made sense.

OT > PT > ST

PT just edges ST just enough for me. For one, it had an arc that made sense. ST just felt unnecessary and really shits on the OT more than anything, basically making this not a Skywalker saga and more of a Palpatine saga. Episode 8 ruined what 7 handed it and 9 suffers because of this. And 9 we didnt even get a cameo of the true chosen one (Anakin). Atleast PT gave us Obi wan, Darth Maul, and lightsaber battles. ST gave us Kylo Ren but totally wasted the idea of the Knights of Ren. Talking about it just annoys me.
