mono-stereo Brave man. Could not do the prequels again.
mono-stereo Daisy Ridley’s character is just some glorified head girl. Completely lacking in nuance and depth. As for the completely underdeveloped, clunky Finn (Boyega said as much) and the CGI Leia, the less said about that the better. Rubbish compared to the original trilogy. It’s only the Mandalorian which has restored a modicum of self respect
I don’t see any nuance or depth in any of the original films either. That’s a laughable expectation from Star Wars.
Along_the_Wire I don’t see underdeveloped villains, half baked ideas and a complete lack of originality in them. Derivative, wish fulfilment fantasies with shite actors (Adam Driver excepted).

Exactly, the original 3 simply trade on nostalgia. They aren’t very good.
Daisy Ridley’s character provides a little bit of a role model figure for young girls and all that.
For that alone is a refreshing change.

Yup, agreed. She’s a decent actor, far better at playing the lead role than either of her predecessors.
They fucked up bad, by not having a plan, instead of three different directors given free reign, who didn’t care what one had done previously. Force Awakens I can watch by itself, I think it’s a really good one.
Wally Couldn’t take Sacha Baron Cohen seriously enough in it. Despite that I liked it.
To sum up - Star Wars is absolute tripe.
Smallman1 since Return of the Jedi yes
Smallman1 What are your top 3 childhood movies? No googling.
Disney’s Star Wars films are horrendous.
However I did like Rogue One & their Mandalorian Series..
Dan What are your top 3 childhood movies? No googling.
At different ages… The Goonies, The Breakfast Club and this…
Commando, Rambo and Platoon.
Smallman1 There all 15 movies.
FFS…
mono-stereo and the two by J J Abrams are the best, particularly the last one. I think he nailed it.
Your trolling or you’ve been at the Toilet Duck again, not sure which.
Amps defo
mono-stereo if you don’t rate the first three, why waste your time on the rest which really do trade on nostalgia. Let’s bring back Chewie, Han, original storm troopers, millennium falcon and a CGI Leia. No imagination at all
alistair Because I enjoyed the last three at the cinema, I thought I’d revisit the others just to double check they weren’t all as bad as I remembered.
mono-stereo The prequels are dismal.
