To put it another way, allow me to show you how to be rational.

I hate the prequels. They are bad movies, and they don’t belong anywhere other than at the bottom 3 spots. However, they’ve got some things going for them here and there.

ANH 95/100
ESB 92/100
TLJ 88/100
TFA 84/100
RO 83/100
ROTJ 80/100
TPM 55/100
ROTS 45/100
AOTC 40/100

5/100 is what your next-door neighbor’s terrible attempt at a movie deserves.

I agree, rating any Star Wars movie as lower than a 2/10 (if, say, ESB is 9/10 or 9.5/10) is insane.

So many angry people lol. 5/100 is Plan 9 territory. You’re just not being rational.

If you disagree feel free to say so, but calling people angry and irrational because they don’t have the same opinion about a movie as you do seems like really bad form.

I made one post where I generalized and said “ST defenders blah blah…” and the moderator threatened to ban me. So is this kind of posting allowed or what?

Last Jedi is the last in my ratings.

OT >>>>> TFA > R1 > Prequels > TLJ

I’d agree with that but just swap TFA and R1 around:

OT >>>>> R1 > TFA > Prequels > TLJ

My TLJ rating - 5/100

Haha I think 5/100 might be low but I would definitely give it an F rating.

In my school everythig below a 70/100 is an F.

Huh that’s interesting. And harsh! We had under 60 = F when I was in school.

I would probably rate:

Star Wars = A
The Empire Strikes Back = A
Return of the Jedi = B
The Phantom Menace = F
Attack of the Clones = F
Revenge of the Sith = F
The Force Awakens = C
Rogue One = D
The Last Jedi = F

But I think I need a new grading scale because Attack of the Clones and The Last Jedi are so bad those ratings are not fair to the other F’s.

Maybe I will think about changing R1 to C and making The Phantom Menace and Revenge of the Sith D’s. Sounds good to me.

Do you really not understand the difference between me saying anyone who doesn’t like TLJ is an idiot and me saying someone rating any of the Star Wars movies a 5/100 is not being rational about it?

JEDIT: Either he’s being irrational or he’s trolling. Mala giving Rogue One a 0/10 wasn’t irrational, it was trolling. In this case I suspect the former rather than the latter because I’ve never seen Val troll before, and I can tell TLJ legitimately upset him.

This meme or whatever you call it is dumb. Obi-Wan didn’t tell Luke: “hey you’re Dad was an asshole and the Jedi deserve to die.” Yoda never told Luke: “there is no dark side or light side. the jedi were arrogant and wrong”.

The people who defend these ST movies are no different than the people who defend the prequels. Mental gymnastics and totally ignoring the spirit of the original movies. But hey look it’s Darth Mual with his cool double bladed lightsaber. Er…I mean look it’s Porgs and Kylo Ren with a saber handle! It’s Star Wars duh!

If that is your attitude - then why are you here? To bait or antagonise those on here that do like these films? If so your stay here is going to be a short one.

‘So is this kind of posting allowed or what?’ - no, you lying about my post to you for the third/fourth time (that I’ve seen - it could be more) isn’t on.

I consider that baiting or antagonising me (I’m also a member here too, don’t forget).

At least you have to admit that TLJ was competently done. That’s more than can be said for the prequels, and definitely more than what counts for a 5/100 rating.

I wanted to give TLJ a 0/100 but thought rationally that it at least deserved something for getting the visuals and sound of SW correct and so raised it up 5. This rating is also only in respect to the other SW movies, not all movies. To give you some further context, here is a quick rating of the other films:

TESB - 98/100
SW/ANH - 95/100
ROTJ - 85/100
R1 - 82/100
TFA - 75/100
ROTS - 40/100
TPM - 38/100
AOTC - 20/100
TLJ - 5/100

I was given a scale to work with that wasn’t related to anything else so I’ve only applied it to SW films and how I compare them against each other. Seeing that TLJ essentially kills SW for me, I think the rating is warranted. In my view, it is a terrible SW film and did far worse damage to the SW universe than the PT ever did.

It might as well be Rian Johnson’s fan film from the way I see it though knowing it is official and Disney signed off on it is why my SW journey ends with this movie.

Sorry but I disagree, however to go into detail would go against the OP’s rules in this thread. I may have already said to much in response to Frink’s assessment of my “irrationality” and so I will say no more.

Hmmm seems unlikely if you think this is on the same level but ok.

TFA Han Solo was some fanfic writing material.

It seems you can’t accept my rating of TLJ without having a go at my rationality or honesty, what are you going to attack next when I don’t back down?

Much like you advise people that don’t like the PT to just pretend they don’t exist, maybe you should pretend my rating doesn’t exist if it bothers you so.

I didn’t say TLJ is the same as a fan film but for my purposes of how I see it, it might as well be since it doesn’t seem like a proper SW film that fits in with the rest of them and as part of the saga. Instead it’s a Rian Johnson-fied movie where he’s just done what he wanted irrespective of what came before.

Hard disagree. One of the best parts of TFA.

Lemme guess - ROTJ Han Solo would never become TFA Han Solo?

While I obviously don’t agree, I can accept that. When you just say “fan-film” without any explanation or context it leaves it open to interpretation. And naturally I’m going to pick the worst interpretation I can think of. :p
