briantw Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 14 minutes ago, Rhom said: Is it? I feel like the new movies are equally bad in different ways, but they do look a hell of a lot better. One of the things I hated most about the prequels was how lazy Lucas got shooting everything in front of a green screen. There was almost nothing practical about the prequels, especially the second and third one. And when you couple that with the fact that Lucas is a shitty director and writer, you ended up with a bunch of actors delivering bad lines with poor direction and clearly not giving a shit because they were standing in a giant green room. At least the new movies have decent performances and look like Star Wars, even if they don't feel like Star Wars much outside of Rogue One.

Darth Richard II Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 You may want to all take this to the Star Wars thread, because believe me, this will get out of hand really quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartofice Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Where is the Star Wars thread. Though I don’t think there is much to say about the Prequels that hasn’t already been said by Mr Plinkett’s brilliant videos by Red Letter Media Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jace, Extat Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I can't believe I'm going to say this, but while the Sequels have better visuals and are genuinely good looking (except Solo) I think I prefer the Prequels. Get trashed and rip them apart with a friend, that's a good Saturday. I don't think I ever want to watch any of the Disney ones again. Maybe TFA if I was feeling some perverse anti-nostalgia?

The sequels have apparently been winging it and allowing directors to make up whatever they want as they go. I’ll be honest I’ve found more enjoyment in the SW prequels than sequels(with the exception of Solo to which I have never seen). There’s more bad to enjoy, more good to enjoy. The force awakens I found to be mostly plagiarism. The last Jedi insulting, and boring, and too try hard in terms of trying to subvert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varysblackfyre321 Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 I’m curious to see if Galactus would be featured if FF is incorporated in the MCU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the 4 it's only better than Rogue One. The 2nd most damning statement I can make about a film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it’s not the best film in imo(kinda feel it failed in some cases), but I found it serviceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a purely technical standpoint Phantom Menace is actually the best of the Prequels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
