original concept and could have been good if they didn't get totally distracted with the fucking PETA subplot and making all the women insufferable liberals
the idea of a chase as the entire plot is very cool, but they fucked it up, and they also robbed blackie of a good death, relegating him to being the token black man for diversity points

I never watched it, maybe I do eventually just out of curiosity, but the 2nd left such a bad taste that I didn't want to put myself through that again

>>215474903
Or they could have approached it without a plan, and just have done a better job. The original trilogy wasn't all planned out from the start. People repeat this "dey didnu plan!!! dey didnu plan!!!" as a truism, but the fact is, that if they were more competent and had better ideas, they could have made it work with this approach.

>TFA wasn't bad

It was horrendous if you see it as a sequel to the Original Trilogy.

It could be rated as just "bad" if you compare it to the prequels, which sucked themselves, but not remotely as much as the sequels.

How there are any TFA defenders at this point is beyond me, even if you're saying it's better than the other sequel trilogy movies, the fact is those other movies were set up to fail by the shitty plot points in TFA including
>>
>>215476705
But that's exactly the point. TFA was meant to introduce the soi wars universe to a new audience. I agree it was mediocre compared to the OT and a pale imitation of it. But for a younger and new audience it was a decent introduction to soi warts even if it rehashed lots of ep 4.
And it was still streets ahead of the junk that followed it.
>>
>>215476746
>But for a younger and new audience
That's why all those toy lines went straight to the bargain bin and kids still don't give any shits about Star Wars. In fact nobody gave a shit about Disney Wars until the Mandalorian.
>>
>>215476746
>. But for a younger and new audience

Maybe if you only consider it as a soft reboot. But I'm talking as a sequel, as in a continuation of the story it's a horrendous because it's just a giant reset button of a movie that undoes the entire OT so that the entire trilogy was meaningless and doesn't matter. The Empire just comes back but with a new name, the jedi order falls AGAIN, the jedi are dying out AGAIN, etc.

It doesn't continue the story which is what a sequel is supposed to do, it resets the story entirely so it can be repeated.

>that if they were more competent and had better ideas
The lack of a decent story or character premise is what really killed the nu-quels, not the planning.
Rey
>Completely flat and unlikable character with minimal room for character development.
Finn
>Emasculated comic relief character that constantly gets clowned out of his potential to make other characters good.
Poe
>Odd character out that seems to be there only because JJ wanted to copy ANH as much as possible.
Initial premise, Snoke, Death planet etc.
>JJ's flailing attempt to rehash ANH, while also have as many 'member berries and mystery boxes meant that there was absolutely no where interesting for the story to go, regardless of who picked

They could have planned for 100 years and it wouldn't have made a difference, because the characters and story premise are so dull and creatively bankrupt.
>>
>>215474903
what does that even mean? they just made shit up as they were filming?

could The Last Jedi have worked if it ended on the cliffhanger of Kylo asking Rey to join forces with him then cutting to credits before she can make her decision? I feel like the really retarded shit (aside from casino planet) happens after the throne room scene
>>
>>215476905
It means the multiple directors didn't coordinate with eachother and just made what they wanted to regardless of the corners they were writing themselves into.
>>
>>215476878
The established New Republic having to try and hunt down the cunning but smaller and less powerful imperial remnants would have been something fresh and new for Star Wars, so of course they didn't do it.

It means that JJ was an out-of-his-depth hack who went into the first film with his typical strategy of creating barely fleshed out mystery boxes with no planned answer, and then Lucas Arts hired Rian Johnson, who is an extremely pretentious and insecure director, and he proceeded to throw out all of JJ's half-baked concepts and try to deconstruct ESB while filling it with instantly dated Joss Wedon-esque quips, irony and aura farming.
After that disaster Lucas arts fired RJ and brought back JJ to try salvage a third film out of the dumpster fire, but of course he couldn't do anything with it, since he has minimal experience or talent as a writer/director outside of setting up mysteryboxes for other people to fill.

>>215476915
Everything about the story is a disaster, a cliff hanger couldn't undo the terrible chase plot or heist plot.

>>215477043
For me to watch Star Wars again they would have to decanonize the JJ-Johnson trilogy and they will never do that.

yes and you easily could have cherry picked the good stuff and made good movies.
they only started introducing eu ideas once it was obvious their new shit was total crap.

"tales of.." is a great example
those were fun books that explored minor characters i the sw universe.
they just turned it into a feature for dave fagloni's lame character stable.

What's baffling to me is that no studio has been able to successfully replicate Marvel's success with the Cinematic Universe concept.
Disney fucked up Star Wars, Warner Bros fucked up the DCU, Universal repeatedly fucked up that Dark Universe concept.
Remember that Disney didn't buy Marvel untill they already had their plan in place, and Marvel was a small studio at the time.
I think these huge studios are just to bloated to be able to competently handle these kind of large integrated franchises. You need one guy who has some kind of vision and doesn't have to keep reporting back to the committee for notes. That's why marvel began to outright suck after a bit.

ANH did have politics. It was just very succinctly and competently relayed to the audience over the course of three establishing scenes.
You are told everything you need to know by Obi-Wan's conversation with Luke, Vader's confrontation with Leia, and Tarkin addressing the moffs.

TFA has nothing like that, outside Han saying why Luke fucked off. We don't know who the fuck the first order is and where they came from, which is a pretty big problem since they have the resources to build something even the empire at its height couldn't manage.
We don't know why the republic is so incompetent they're letting them do whatever they want, or why Leia only has a tiny group when they're up against genocidal lunatics

What great parts? The slow chase where the rebels were worried about running out of fuel? The asspull lightspeed ramming? Luke Skywalker drinking blue alien titmilk?

It was a fun movie until I watched the Rian Johnson movie, which ruined Star Wars and sabotages the franchise.
>>215478419
I know that A New Hope does have politics, but the Prequels is overwhelmed by politics and JJ Abrams' sequel "trilogy", which could have been successful without a political theme behind it, since JJ Abrams is not George Lucas, while I admit it does sacrifice world-building.
