OT:
- Fun faced pace space adventure with simple plots but had a bit of depth
- Practical effects were heavily used to make the universe looked lived in
- Colorful and fun characters who had chemistry and fully realized arcs
PT:
- Slow paced bore fests set in space with simple plots and the illusion of depth
- Over reliance on mostly terrible CGI which made a lot of it look fake and the universe was all shiny while the OT was gritty
- Dull and (mostly) 1 dimensional characters who had no chemistry and no fully defined arcs
I can keep going but I guess all you need are lightsabers, blasters and things that look like Storm Troopers and suddenly it’s Star Wars. Say what you will about TFA but at least that had colorful characters and was exciting in my point of view a Star Wars film with boring characters and no sense of fun isn’t really a Star Wars film.
First of all, the plot points in the PT are faaaaaar from simple. Executed poorly? Perhaps, but they are not simple.
“Say what you will about TFA but at least that had colorful characters and was exciting”
Funny, that’s what I say about the PT.
“a Star Wars film with boring characters and no sense of fun isn’t really a Star Wars film.”
And that’s what I say about TFA.
Like I said, either either.
