This is my only two cents on it.
For any SW enthusiast, this was a film where the creators already knew how to make it “visually” appealing with enough Eye Candy and Hype scenes; but for every other logic sensible person watching it, there was really just nothing special about the story (I have own my two cents on that but that’s a whole other thread).In a similar manner to the PT, just give it a couple of months/years after the hype dies down to where people’ll start seeing it for what it “really” is to where the faneditors have to step in to fix it.
Some of us had issues with the prequels opening day.
And logical sensible people had similar complaints in 1977 too. 😉
