Lol sorry I'm not a comic con fan but I'm just as passionate about those movies. I was raised on them watching them with my oldest son was one of those alltime father son moments, (he's 21 and we still talk Star Wars). And now it's so bad my 7 year old even says he likes the old ones better. Abrams made a mess out of Star Trek but destroying Star Wars is a serious offense to me.

I bet you hate ice cream because of its detrimental effect on the cultural structure of Western Civilization.

The force awakens is the death of Star Wars. It's by far the worst ep and marks the beginning of the end. Abrams should've never been allowed anywhere near Star Wars and is destroying an important part of American cinema not to mention a generational family pastime

Thinking back i didnt mind the story lines of the 3 prequels as much as the lousy acting. Anikin was cast horribly for both child and adult. That stupid lizard frog race was bad to.

I rewatch for yoda and the siths. Obe wan was solid too.

I do like the force awakens and im glad they killed off harrison ford. I thought he looked old and decrepid, not just the part but in Real life.

Love ice cream and if you think the force awakens was a good movie I feel sorry for you.

Yeah, me.

TFA could have been written by a 10 year old. I was bored as shite watching, there was no suspense, just entirely predictable and the casting for Kylo bothered the shite out of me.

I think it became the cool internet thing to do at some point to shite on the prequels. Yeah there's some cheesy effects and acting but it's a good story and I thought it was told well. Whatever maybe that's why I'm not a certified yelper/movie reviewer

Rogue One felt very similar to a lot of the good and bad of the PT. Rogue One had weak, unrelateable characters with stiff dialogue, but it wasn't afraid to use CGI to include lots of unique, alien landscapes. I would say I probably enjoy Rogue One about on the same level I enjoy Revenge of the Sith.
