  • The sequels did one thing right. They made the majority of star wars fans greatly appreciate the prequels!
  • @pacoramon9468
    - Palpatine was't killed -The Empire wasn't destroyed -Luke didn't bring back the jedi order -Han Solo left Leia and return to be a criminal - The New Republic was a failure that a group of neonazis ended in a week -Anakin didn't bring balance to the force. The sequel triology made pointless the original triology, the characters and universe didn't chance from episode IV to IX.
  • I still cannot believe that Luke, Han, and Leia never had a scene altogether in this entire trilogy
  • @ccam7802
    JJ : somehow palpatine has a huge fleet of manned warships buried beneath the ice because he just does. Lucas: Palpatine has a large fleet of warships and a grand army because he spent a decade setting up cloning , and creating an artificial conflict to get the senate to put the republic on a wartime footing to pump out weapons, and ships
  • @andrewchr
    In their struggle to put down the prequels, they managed to put them in a much better light.
  • Honestly I'm still just stunned that Disney, the largest media conglomerate in history, decided to make a new trilogy of Star Wars, arguably the biggest film franchise in history, without having any overarching plan for what the story would be.
  • It’s funny how everybody hated “how political the prequels were” but they forget that in literally the first scene of A New Hope leia lies to darth vader about telling him that she is an imperial senator in a diplomatic mission to alderan and doesn’t know about any plans and gets imprisoned. That is literally how we meet one of the main characters
  • @TheMrGmk
    Turns out that Lucas’ biggest mistake with the prequels was overestimating the audience
  • @thedoctor2871
    Ep 1. Children's Fantasy Ep 2. Noir-ish Political Mystery Ep 3. Apocalyptic Opera Ep 4. Serial Adventure Ep 5. Dreamlike Tragedy Ep 6. Classical Morality Play Ep 7. Nostalgia Bait Ep 8. Middle Finger🖕 Ep 9. "Somehow Palpatine returned."
  • @justicar347
    It is more entertaining and mentally stimulating to watch criticism of the sequel trilogy than it is to watch the actual movies.
  • The fact that people don’t like the concept of Politics in a franchise called Star WARS genuinely baffles me! War and Politics are very interconnected (and that’s putting it lightly).
  • @randyjax09
    Nobody ever mentions how 99% of the alien races featured in the sequels were new species created by Disney. They pretty much abandoned the rich & diverse cultures created by Lucas. Despite the familiar actors & props, it never really felt like the Star Wars to me because it was all so foreign. I get why Marcia Lucas cried after watching TFA.
  • @SuperSparrow45
    It's ironic that in an attempt to make people forget about the Prequels, they made Star Wars fans appreciate them even more, because, at least they're not THIS.

    "A special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing." -George Lucas.
  • @muffin2221
    Its crazy how much JJ thought he was the panacea of all things star wars. Straight up believed he knew star wars better than its own creator
  • The scene watching Luke just toss his lightsaber over his shoulder and off a Cliff is just absolute sacrilege to Star Wars as a whole. It absolutely kills me watching it.
  • "Somehow, Palpatine has returned" This sentence will be used as a bad example in writing classes for decades to come
  • This video isn’t anti-Star Wars, it’s anti-sequel trilogy and honestly that makes this video extremely pro-Star Wars.
  • @stepanovicboro
    19:34 the funniest thing about the scene with rey holding the dagger and saying horrible things were done with it and all the while shes holding the youngling slayer 3000, also that part with the snake making a hole for them felt like some 2005 video game trope where you finish the objective and through that you make the way free to continue 😂
  • Luke going into hiding. One of the main characters being a defected stormtrooper. The whole history and purpose of the Knights of Ren. JJ has a real talent for coming up with interesting ideas and then failing to follow through with them.
