I’ve already supplied my reasoning for my dislike of any spin offs of the OT. They are not star wars films. They fail to follow the iconography, the codes and conventions, the mis en scene and the mythological creation of the OT.

Basically you’re saying you don’t like anything that dares to be different, regardless of its actual quality.

Yep – that’s an OT chauvinist in the nutshell.

Quality? I’ve yet to see any.

Or you’ve yet to actually see the film.

Regardless of your gripes there has to be SOMETHING you can get out of TFA and be like “Okay they did good in this regard”. Even if it’s something like the set design or the sound design. Something dude.

Sadly I’ve seen it three times, I tried to like it, wanted to like it but sadly for me it got worse after every viewing. I can’t honestly think of anything positive about it…opening fanfare perhaps
