Not counting animated stuff.

True or False?

I say emphatically true

Revenge was decent, but not good

None of the sequel trilogy was remotely close

I will say False, simply because I found a lot of Mandalorian to be good, not just the last episode. Almost all of that series is good, and the episode of Boba Fett where it focused on just him was good, too. I'm talking about when he takes out the butcher dog dude on the space station, and then goes to see Luke and Grogu.

Andor Ep 3 gave me a giant Star Wars boner.

Fan-tastic

So only two episodes of two series makes the good list prior to 1983????

No!


Rogue One was great!

Solo was decent.

The Force Awakens was pretty good.

The Mandolorian was great overall, both seasons, with a couple throw away episodes.

Book of BF was mostly solid.

Obi-Wan had its moments. Overall it was meh.

Andor has been really good so far.

TPM was decent.

AOTC was pathetic.

Revenge for the save!


Now....The Last Jedi sucked more than anything in AOTC! What a waste of a film.

Rise of Skywalker was ok but doesn't work well because of TLJ.

All Of Mandalorian is good. Season 1 is better than the last episode of Season 2.

I like Rogue One and Solo (criminally underrated)

The older I get, the more I realize ROTJ is what killed Star Wars.

Dark/ gritty slanted Star Wars is where it's at. This kids Disney Star Wars shite is terrible. Enjoying Andor as well.

It is. Same weapon. Similar plot to the first.
The ewoks.

Good movie but no where near the first two.

lol the best thing about that series was whenever it stopped being a boba Fett show and became a mandolorian show. They made Boba Fett soft and stupid.

I read A great article about why BOBF was disappointing and their point was that everything you would want in a Boba Fett show you already got in The Mandalorian

Mando was essentially a stand in for everything we liked about Boba Fett.

The cool faceless stoic bounty Hunter bad arse.

So they had to go somewhere with BF. I agree he was a bit soft for
Someone taking over a criminal enterprise. And In think the actor is too old to do the action sequences needed.

It honestly served as filler between Mandolorian seasons which are coming out 2+ years apart. I am Glad we
Didn’t spend half a season getting Mando and Groku back together.

It's not just the Ewoks. The movie was supposed to be even darker than TESB but all George Lucas cared about was licensing and merchandising. "Han can't die, otherwise kids won't buy his action figures."

Specifically the Ewoks.

To that point, there wasn't a single thing in the SW galaxy that was cute & fuzzy. Lucas pussed out and got seduced by the merch $$$.

Idk how I would feel about it if I didnt Grow
Up watching the OT, but I’ve never minded the Ewoks.

Probably a heavy dose of nostalgia.

Honestly Empire ends with the good guys taking an L but it’s not exactly dark like
People Make it out to be.

Yep…my thoughts too. Until that point every thing was played straight with enough comic relief from the droids and Han Solos character to keep it moving.

The Ewoks broke that and when they start beating Stormtroopers it was just silly. If it was a planet of Wookiees or something fierce it would’ve been better.

And Chewy with the Tarzan yell jumped the shark.
