As for Force Awakens, that’s in limbo. Will wait to see his this new trilogy holds up as a whole.
That’s a pretty smart stance imo
If VIII and IX end up sucking I’ll probably end up putting the ST out of my personal canon so that I may reinsert the Thrawn Trilogy.
RE# ended up sucking and basically already stained the whole ST.
That’s the stupidest shit I’ve ever heard. The PT would have been looked upon with favor if AOTC and ROTS were good films and we all know it. We would have seen TPM as a bumpy start to a good - amazing trilogy and the one you have to sit through to get to the good stuff. And to me ROTJ is a huge drop in quality in comparison to SW and ESB but the OT in it’s totality still works for me. You’re just looking for an excuse to hate the ST. No matter how good VIII or IX could be all you’ll be saying is that you think TFA sucks instead of judging the films based on their own merit.
The thing about the trilogy concept is that the setting and the story continue and characters remain the same. I did not like the setting and the story (rehash crap) and I did not like characters. These things will not just magically disappear in VIII and IX.
Though you can’t really convey your grievances in a satisfactory manner (mostly due to a lack of knowledge of the source material) I feel you.
And I am not just an grumpy old OT fan either. I loved R1 because it was actually good. RE# on the other hand was unfortunately crap.
Rogue One was good; that we can agree on. Though to the degree in which it was good and the reasons why we thought it was good are likely different.
I’m screenshotting this for when such a time arises so I can shove it right back in your face.
I am not sure what would be trying to achieve? I might not even see VIII and IX. And even if I will, they will be strongly tied to what RE# introduced, so the probability of me actually liking them is rather low.
Please don’t so I have a legitimate reason to ignore you when they come out.
