Goodness gracious, great balls of lightning!
The Geonosis battle is a little nauseating. Too many lightsabers.
I'm talking about when the Clones show up and start blowing the snot out of the droids

The way the dropships sound when they fly is awesome

Operation Knightfall is still one of my favourite scenes in the series.

Fuck you the 327th Star Corps are best troopers. Easily the best design of armour out of all of them.

But Ahsoka got pretty cool in the later seasons of TCW/ Rebels

Just saw Star Wars: The Fall of Reach.

Characters and plot sucked. Nothing else really needs to be said. I'd say it's largely on par with TFA, maybe worse.

I don't know if I would call it hate, but after a few months people's thoughts on the film became less positive after that "oh thank goodness it's not as bad as the prequels" phase was over and the flaws of the film became more apparent.

Honestly i'm seeing a whole fuck ton of outright hatred for the film recently. And alot of it still revolves about this Rey is a Marry Sue stuff.

I don't know what movie people thought they watched. Rogue One was pretty good.

Spoiler
I LOVE that there's finally a good reason for the exhaust port.

(TFA would have benefited from being more original, although I still like that Kylo Ren is the angsty, unstable young man Anakin should have been. It's not the perfect film, but it makes me yearn for what the prequels could have been if someone had pried them from George's hands.)

because he totally wasn't exactly that, or what

i think you just meant adam driver played it more convincingly, to which i'd agree

Well, there's a number of factors that go into that, chiefly casting, direction, performance, and writing.

For whatever reason, Lucas decided not to lay some groundwork in Episode 1:

YouTube

That omission undermines a crucial moment in Episode 2, making it seem rather out-of-the-blue as opposed to the emotional culmination it's supposed to be:

YouTube

Unlike some other folks, I'm not entirely convinced that Christensen was somehow miscast, but George's questionable direction and writing weren't doing him many favors.

Sorry for the edits, the inconsistent spacing was triggering me.

Yeah those giant ball tentacle monsters from the Force Awakens were pretty weird too now that I think about it.

Most people here did. Why are you acting like this is an unpopular opinion? At all?

Did anyone else find Vader's pun groan worthy? I've been trying to figure out why I basically cringed at it, when he does joke a fair amount in all the other films. So I compared some of his other jokes lines;
YouTube

to his Rogue One line (link will probably get copyright claimed);
YouTube

And I dunno, I can't really put my finger on it. I think it's because it's like a self referential joke, something a fan would say but shouldn't actually be put to film. "Wouldn't it be cool if Darth Vader thought his choking ability was totally epic and funny?" It'd be like if the Emperor made some pun about Luke finding it "shocking" how much it hurt being electrified by him

I think the problem is that JEJ emphasized "choke" in the line. If it was just "be careful not to choke on your aspirations Director" delivered in his usual tone, that would've been better. Instead it was "be careful not to choke on your aspirations", which wasn't Vader's usual style.

Anakin always quips. As potato's video showed, he does it in the OT to. I think it's just people are looking for an excuse to dislike the movie. If you cringe at "Don't choke on your aspirations", you should also cringe at "I find your lack of faith disturbing."

But none of his "funny" sayings in the OT were in reference to his ability to force choke people like we got in Rogue One.
"Wow my force powers are so fucking cool" is basically what we get out of the line and it's not Vader at all.

I think you're looking a little to deep into that line. Anakin quips. Always has.
