I’m pretty sure TLJ has had about as much hate as the Prequels.

I’d love to know how you can be pretty sure about that.

With my age group at least, I’m fairly certain it does. Most people I talk to don’t mind the prequels and dislike TLJ.

Ever heard of the concept of small sample size or anecdotal evidence?

Your scientifically credible evidence for backing your position consists of…?

Come on man. My position is that you can’t make a statistically relevant data set from talking to your friends. What position do you think I was presenting?

I have no real data, but I would not be surprised at all if the 15-20 year-olds are largely not offended by the prequels.

I know a lot of people in my circle that don’t like TLJ and I don’t actually know anyone that likes it. My sample-size is only about 10, so I’m not saying that means much of anything, but I think it would be a fair assumption that TLJ at least has had a mixed reception.

That’s stupid though. I don’t know anyone in my real life who dislikes TLJ, but I’m not gonna sit here and pretend that TLJ is universally loved (and based on your posts about interacting with other humans, I think it’s safe to say my sample size is larger). You can’t base a film’s overall reception just off your friends and colleagues.
