Prior to The Force Awakens, liking the prequels was the ultimate sin. Star Wars fans would engage in masturbatory viewings of hour+ reviews that did nothing but reinforce their hate of the prequels.

Now that another company is making the movies though, the prequels are suddenly good. It's wild.

I'm afraid to watch these movies. What if I become one of those crazy obsessive fans? SW and ST fans are a scary lot.

Some of us have enjoyed what the prequels brought to the Star Wars universe years before the sequels came out.

The prequels aren't "good", and I don't see a lot of people who hated the prequels who suddenly like them.

It's more like you're seeing lots of people who grew up with the prequels now experience what the people who grew up with the OT experienced.

There's people like me who thought the prequels were disappointing (I only hated Clones) and just think Disney Star Wars is boring and feels directionless. If there is one thing that I can say about the prequels it's that they at least felt thought out. Disney Star Wars films just feels like people throwing shit at the wall and hoping something sticks.

Disney EU has also somehow become just as dumb if not worse than the Legends EU. (although I'll admit this could just be me not being as familiar with the Legends stuff since there was so much)

I am cautiously excited for the Mandalorian, but I've always preferred the underworld Star Wars stuff to the Jedi stuff.

I'm still a casual fan of Attack of the Clones. It's an awful movie, but it's a fun watch regardless.

Believe it or not, there are people out there who always liked the prequels. Not everyone is a Red Letter Media shill.

Crazy, I know.

The funny thing is Star Wars is widely cited as the first "cinematic universe" and it's very true... a lot of people love Star Wars not because of the original movies but because of all the EU stuff

I know that my first love for Star Wars was because of Dark Forces

it's pretty strange. how could disney have ruined star wars when george lucas, the man himself was the actual cretin who ruined it?

the recent internet push back against SW prequel criticism is alarming. the movies are genuinely bad, boring, poorly acted, poorly written, poorly paced messes. very little action. just boring talking, talking, talking

and yet now people like them and shit on TFA? hell, as bad as TLJ is it's still better than the prequels!


Wrong.

The Prequels ruined the original world of Star Wars with its politics, limitless jedi, limitless lightsabers, microscopic bacteria allowing the use of the force, and childhood Vader.

The Sequels have been ruining the original characters

But despite its faults, The Last Jedi is still more competent than the prequels.

Ive never hated the prequels. At least they actually had a shred of originality.

What gets me is that there's literally one good movie in the series but somehow the last couple are what's "ruining the franchise"


I mean, I think A New Hope and Empire are pretty good, and Rogue One was pretty great too. Solo was alright oo, I think everyone just had a post Last Jedi hate boner for it.

It's an interesting franchise, but the actual movies are only partially responsible for that.

Star Wars was always not very good. The good part is the feels of looking at the art and stuff, and coming up with an entire world out of your imagination. The actual products aren't amazing.

This for one, but also...just because we hated the prequels more than the OT, why can't we have high hopes for what Disney was going to do for the series? A lot of us did. I certainly did. And they...did not deliver.

I wonder how many people have only seen the original trilogy after George Lucas went after them with a hacksaw.

That has to be my biggest complaint, retroactively making the original content worse so it is damn near impossible to even just watch what I enjoyed in the first place.
