I honestly can’t believe that anybody claiming to be a Star Wars fan could genuinely think that AOTC or any of the prequels is better than TFA.
I am not doing so out of a sheer sense of misplaced humor if that is what you might be suspecting…my frustration is genuine…and the realization that it has brought to mind is equally so.
I would rather watch the Rathtar scene from TFA on repeat for two hours than have to sit through one viewing of the droid factory scene where CGI threepio get his head stuck on a battle droid.
I would rather watch a film with more space/droid battles than one in which yet another Death Star is blown up with even less rationale than the prior two efforts…
