But I can never get over the acting in the prequels.
The stilted dialogue never goes away despite TFA being meh and and TLJ sucking.
It's like a Commadore 64 wrote the dialgoue for the prequels. There's no life to them. I don't blame the actors...apparently they were given crap scripts by Lucas and told to act separetly in front of green screens.
That's not cinema.
And there's way too much going on...apart from Episode I. Never liked the idea that prequels will have way better technology than the so-called later episodes and massive CGI fights that never occured in the original trilogy.
Lucas should have gone more Ridley Scott and gummed up the prequels and slowed them down and enough with the damn toys.
It's just all CGI nonsense...overly-complicated plots and horrible dialogue that wouldn't pass muster for a high school play...but hey he's George, so nobody is going to question him.
Agree with all of that. I enjoy the prequels more than most do, most likely. But they are not "good" SW films for the most part. It was mainly just cool to see Vader become Vader, and how that happened. Most of the other things are filler nonsense, and the dialogue and acting are just plain atrocious like you said. The acting is distractingly bad.
I will say though, I finally saw TLJ a week or so ago, and I liked it WAY more than I thought I would. It wasn't overly great, and there were a lot of things in it that had me scratching my head (and some of the decisions in the movie just mad at in general). But after hearing nothing but negative after negative thing about it, I went it with VERY low expectations, and came out actually enjoying it a good bit. I'd love to trek into the TLJ threads to see why people hated it so much, but there are hundreds of them and tons of pages of bullshite to sift through, so I don't want to.
