The prequels are bad but at least they're watchable, in like a train wreck watchable kind of way. TLJ is just a flaming pile of shit. I don't know how anyone can say that Revenge of the Sith and especially Attack of the Clones are watchable. The acting is so, so bad in both and the pacing is just wretched. And for AotC, it doesn't so much have leaps of logic in its story so much as no logic at all. The story is an incoherent mess, characters do things that make no sense, and the "masterful machinations" that underpin the plot could be resolve in about three minutes if anyone on either side of the conflict had more than two brain cells to bang together. Say what you will about TLJ, but it will never plumb the depths that the prequels reached. Revelation34 posted... George Lucas was involved for those so that automatically makes them better. George Lucas directed precisely one good movie and two mediocre ones. One look at his filmography demonstrates exactly how much the original Star Wars films were the results of other people taking his good ideas and refining out the dross (in particular his ex-wife, Marcia Lucas, who line-edited the original films and has been credited by multiple cast members for being a huge part of why Star Wars is as popular as it is). --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer. Kill 10 men: You are a monster. Kill 100 men: You are a hero. Kill 10,000 men, you are a conqueror! <cite>darkknight109 posted [p:905758031] in I watched ...
