What do you mean by that?

The music sucks
You take that back. John Williams is an international treasure, and the only aspect which was consistently good throughout all nine films. Rey’s theme, March of the Resistance, and Jedi Steps and Finale were all stellar in my opinion.
Same. Core memory unlocked.
They are, the dialogue is absolutely horrendous.
“I wish I could wish away my feelings”
“I’ve been dying a little bit each day since you came back into my life”
4,5,2,3,6. No ep 1!
That’s machete order, I think. While TPM is definitely the most “skippable” of the 6, I think AotC is a worse movie.
She only found out she was adopted like an hour prior.
Wait, who did she find this out from? Her adoptive parents were presumably killed in Star Wars with the destruction of Alderaan.
It’s also implied that she knew she was adopted. Luke asks her “do you remember your mother, your real mother?” and Leia replies “Just a little bit. She died when I was very young”.
Ah, thanks for clarifying. That’s an interesting position. I never found the light sabers or blaster bolts in the original trilogy to look that bad. And the practical effects, models, and sets, certainly look superior to the CGI sets in the prequels.
If George had waited another 5 or 10 years it could have been better.
I’m not so sure about this. I think that the limitations George had at the time ended up being part of what made the original trilogy so good. If George had access to better special effects, would we still have gotten scenes like these?
Or would we have gotten this instead?
George being able to do “whatever he wants” does not necessarily lead to the best movie.
and hate that I can’t find copies without the added crap
Search up “Harmy despecialized” and “4k77”. There are many other Star Wars fans who feel the way you do, and they have taken matters into their own hands :)
localized entirely within your Lemmy instance?
Well, not entirely. It federates to other instances, which is sort of the point of Lemmy :)
“Darth Plagiarism” is just… *chef’s kiss*
Specifically Lumiere and Babette, I believe.
This feels like some !noncredibledefense@sh.itjust.works material here…
IIRC, the German Redditors drew a better Canadian flag than the Canadian Redditors did. I’m glad that the Canadians on the fediverse seem to be organized a bit better.
When they made Star Wars, Empire, and Return the special effects tech was garbage (clunky, expensive, and time consuming) so they had to rely on good story telling and practical effects
I’m curious, have you watched the original trilogy with the original practical effects, and not the crappy CGI that George added later?
Still not as stupid as George’s decision to have Leia remember their mother as “beautiful but sad” and then have Padme die two minutes after Leia is born. Like, damn, Leia’s got a good memory.
TIL that the Beaver is a Tim!
Very well said.
The 6 movies are fine
I take issue with the prequels being described as “fine”. Meesa think thosa terrible films…
Ah, thanks. Even if it is a bit confusing, it’s cool that they were able to switch out the underlying software without breaking everything. I guess it helps that mbin is a fork of kbin.
also kbin.run and kbin.earth
They’re asking about mbin, not kbin, no?
Ah, I see. Thanks for clarifying!
