It seems as if the entire forum members have gone into depression, some waving their white flags at Disney, others in denial about how they really want to love and accept this trilogy, and others just outright planning an armada against The Mouse.
Well, predicition for WW is about $180m I guess.
Not surprising in some ways as you have three distinct eras of filming this saga. Late 70’s to early 80’s, Late 90’s to early 2000’s and mid to late 2010’s. Technology has had distinct influence on how each eras filmed looked along with the change of how Hollywood makes them. With the consolidation of companies owning them. I see a wee bit of the change we now see in the blockbuster even as far back as ROTJ.
My point, of course, is that each era has it’s defenders and critics. With that in mind I would be amazed if everyone got along. Somewhere along the line people stopped just going to movies to have fun but to compare it to the one era they enjoy the most. IMO of course.
