That’s why I disagree with the notion that you can show someone the Plinkett reviews in order to convince them that the PT is bad.

If you have to convince someone that the PT is bad, you cannot convince them.

Rational arguments / irrational viewers.

I think some members of this forum think the PT is good and don’t consider themselves irrational.

That’s the problem.

I don’t think it is.

The problem is insisting we must all come to the same conclusions. I enjoy discussing the merits and faults of SW movies. It’s silly and frustrating to go about with an intent of proving people wrong about their views of Star Wars. You may change someone’s view based on a discussion but it’s nothing to you if that doesn’t happen.

Also, there’s something in the rules about personal insults.

Yeah it is silly, sorry I thought that was obvious.

This would be fine, if it were not for the fact, that Han, Luke, and Leia are main characters in the saga, and the fact that we’ve already seen three movies about a relatively small rebel force fighting a big bad Empire. It’s extremely jarring to just skip the development of characters you’re invested in, at least for me.

They were only the main characters of the OT, albeit with some carry over since Kasdan got his ROTJ ending ideas put into TFA. But the way you phrase it explains why TLJ doesn’t work for you. I have no problem skipping stuff since they are not the protagonists.
