i'm not sure how to feel about this

there was a ton of fanservice

there was a ton of cool action

i legit smiled when han showed up

but it kinda feels like the first avengers movie? lots of stuff happening but ultimately kind of shallow?

also poe's acting really felt phoned in was that just me

The fact that I had to seriously rack my brain to remember who Poe was says it all about the sequel trilogy

I left the theater thinking it was amazing. That has decreased over time, but it was still enjoyable.

Poe and Finn are both so much wasted potential in the sequels.

Episode 9 is the first time I ever looked at the Prequels > Sequels crowd and decided they were still crazy, but maybe they have a leg to stand on.

Rise of Skywalker definitely belongs in the same low-tier as Attack of the Clones and Phantom Menace.

I kinda came out of the movie thinking it was fine.

But the more I think about it the more I think about the entire movies purpose is to retcon the last jedi instead of tell a functional star wars plot.

Uhm no? The Avengers was way better.

Without getting into it YET AGAIN, TLJ is the best film in the sequel trilogy by default. ROS is garbage and TFA is basically original trilogy remixed edition.

I honestly barely remember anything that happened in the movie because they tried to cram so much stuff in there that none of it really stood out

TFA is easily the best.
TLJ to this day I have no idea if I liked it or not.
RoS was garbage.

1-3 I will maintain have some RLM style "this shits so bad it's funny" enjoyment when watching with other people. The people who say they're actually good...naw, I don't even think 3 is any good and people seem to be trying to say that one was always OK. I think the artists did an incredible job and Wil always respect that side of things.

9 has nothing. It just....exists.

Never trust anyone who says that Episode 3 is better than any of the original trilogy. The last act of Revenge of the Sith is definitely the best part of the prequels, but that doesn't all of a sudden make it a good film. I can maaaayyyybbeee understand people saying that the last act of RoTS is better than the special edition of RoTJ, but I still disagree.

I think RotJ is a pretty terrible movie itself, TBQH. Not too far off from Episode 3, basically interchangeable.

The prequels and sequels together prove there can be separate troughs of awfulness

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.
