Shall we mention Kylo Ren’s temper tantrums? Makes Anakin’s whining and complaining seem absolutely normal.

As I’ve said before, I think GL deliberately used 30’s style story telling in the PT. For many this didn’t work. Many people don’t like older movies and their stilted style. It work for me so I tend to take the vehement hatred of the PT as a dislike of style choices. GL could have achieved his goal with a better set of films if he had consulted others on the stories - not yes men, but serious critiques from his peers like he did with SW/ANH. ATOC fails worse than the other two because it is the middle chapter. And yes, while I understand GL’s style choice, his execution is flawed.
