>bro people TOTALLY liked the prequels back then
Lucas reminds me a lot of James Rolfe: a total idiot who accidentally created a cultural phenomenon, didn't understand what he had done, then completely butchered it because it didn't fit his autistic creative vision.
>>220363348People did, autistic manchildren screeching online did not.
>>220363348this movie proves what exactly?
>>220363660I like how "autistic manchildren" can go from a small insignificant group to the majority of people depending on what you're mad about in the moment.
>>220363348I don't even like the prequels but the people who made this documentary deserve to be shot. Remember, the question it poses isn't>Are the Star Wars prequels good movies?It's>Who REALLY owns Star Wars?That's not open to debate. It's his. He busted his ass making it.
>several thousand solar systemsWas George too stupid to realise how absolutely insane several thousand is as a reference to the scale of the setting.
>>220363660>Bro what if I just blatantly lieAudiences thought it was boring as shit
>>220363741Well millions of people didn't see all three movies in theaters and buy copies of the movies on DVD and Blu-Ray because they didn't like them.
we should honestly just kill gen x now, there's no reason to let them continue on
>>220363348The prequels were and still are the highest grossing independent films of all time, and were made entirely outside the Hollywood system. Hollywood media smeared the shit out of them because they didn't want George Lucas to make more movies and inspire other filmmakers to go independent, and they didn't want a future George Lucas to rise up and challenge them.
>>220363751George seems to be extremely smart, considering he made a multimedia empire built on his original ideas that he sold for $4 billion. You seem to be extremely stupid yo not understand this.
>>220363348>gen x manchildren hated the prequels to the point they bullied child anakins actor into developing a drug addiction FTFY
>>220363348>bro an embarrassing George Lucas hit piece TOTALLY represented all star wars fans
Prequel hate is a bunch of adults criticizing a kids movie.
>>220363888General Xers are truly deranged and cringe. The older they get the more boomer they become. Meanwhile, the older the prequels get, the better they age and the more beloved they become.
>>220363621Imagine typing this and then sitting back and not realizing (You) are the autistic one
I know you guys don't care about twitter and that's good, but since this is relevant to the topic you might want to know that twitter is ABSOLUTELY STEAMING FURIOUS at rlm right now. the whole "rlm is responsible for the sequels being bad!!!! rlm bullied my childhood by shitting on the prequels!!!!" thing finally caught on there and has hit critical mass, it's on the front page feeds constantly. millennials are walking out of 13th storey windows over it, it's a madhouse. just angry manchildren literally shitting bloody nuggets saying it's all rlm's fault that star wars is "dead" now
>>220363348To be fair, those guys who made that documentary were fat basement-dwelling neckbearded manbabies, who didn't understand the basics of filmmaking or writing and cared more for "muh lore" than characters and themes.Wait ... why does that sound so familiar?
>>220363970I also hated them when I was a kid, what’s your point
>>220363348The prequels were and are shit. Watch the Plinkett reviews next.
>>220363949Elder fag here... this documentary was well-received and we all watched it in college
>>220363348don't worry, we're getting the actual original Star Wars in theaters next year non-stupid edition for the 50th anniversary and by extrapolation Empire and ROTJ upcoming as well. After John Normie sees the original trilogy without the downgrades in IMAX it will actually be over for both Prequel and Sequel fags as everyone remembers what star wars really is
>>220363751Yeah and how many of those are just backwater shitholes with one inhabitable planet/moon?
>>220364038If RLM truly killed Star Wars it’s the best thing they’ve ever doneThis semen slurping franchise has two pretty good movies followed by decades of nothing but dogshit and yet the spergs on this board have defined their entire lives around it. Simply baffling
>>220363861"Original ideas"
>>220364254Star Wars itself is an original idea that takes inspiration from several sources, mainly Joseph Campbell's hero with 1000 faces.
>>220364088Cringe and embarrassing
Kids loved them and that's all that mattered
>>220363751What's the scale issue here? The systems leaving end up forming the CIS, which is going to be the Republic's enemy in a galactic-scale war.
>>220364349are you retarded
>>220363751I think the Republic is retardedly huge and expansive but even if there were 10,000 planets in it a few thousand going against it in a civil war is believable.
>>220363721That millennials and Gen Xers are cringe incarnate.
the prequels movies are weak but they have a soul and the extended media especially video games and later the clone wars show really fleshed it all outthis is why people are fond of them or at least the characters and era despite their faults if i remember right this documentary was also in part calling lucas out on changing the originals with the special editions that criticism is valid to this day and he did get weird with some of the changes and additions in comparison to disney wars this still was a golden age of star wars
>>220364659would be funnier if zoomers werent the biggest faggots out there
>>220364688I couldn't be bothered to track all the changes throughout the years but I think Lucas made even more after that documentary came out.
>>220364738this documentary came out in 2010 he sold star wars in 2012
>>220363348There was also a movie called fanboys, that detailed the life of a dying teen who's last wish was to watch the new star wars movie, so he took a road trip with his friends to break in to skywalker ranch, he ends up getting caught and Lucas takes pity and lets him see the movie before he dies and he ends up telling his friends it's dogshit lolEveryone hated the prequels and movies were made stating it outright
>>220363348How did uncs watch the duel of the fates and not think that was the coolest most epic shit ever.
>>220364820that movie was released in 2009
>>220364584Are you? How is Star Wars not an original idea?
>>220364820>he ends up telling his friends it's dogshit lolno he didntthe last scene is them in the theater at premiere going "guys what if the movie sucks?"
>>220364842That scene actually isn't that cool if you rewatch the whole thing. It's all Maul's entrance and taking out his saber as his theme song hits. After the entrance it's all downhill.
>>220363838This. Critics seethed uncontrollably because Lucas was able to do all this outside their system. That was the start of prequel hate even before the butthurt unc brigade got activated.
>>220364859
>>220364856I am struggling, deeply struggling, to wrap my head around your brazen zoomer ignorance.
>>220364890worse hollywood resented lucas for making them pay for THX / ILM and Pixar.Plus for better or worse he streamlined digital film making
>>220364038Crazy how literally everything discussed on this site the past 10 years is only now hitting the normiesphere.
>>220364038funny because RLM had the guys who made this documentary on their show in one of the early episodes
>>220364921Being inspired by other things doesn't make it unoriginal. Every single piece of art you enjoy took inspiration from other things, you big dummy
>>220364038Good, even Mark Hamill called the movie a fraud.
>>220364993You don't even know what you're wrong about, jesus christzoomers are insane
>>220364890Also Critics are just paid mouth piece shills of Hollywood studios. Now that the normie public realizes this, their shill agenda becomes clearer in hindsight.
>>220365003after 10+ years of deranged politics screeching that doesnt mean much anymore
>>220365018No idea is truly original, grandpa.
>>220365051You literally don't even know the topic on which you're wrong. You're arguing the wrong point, it's insane
>>220363348I liked them because I didn't watch the original trilogy and knew nothing about Star Wars at the time desu. I got really emotionally invested in Anakin's story and was fucking emotionally devastated watching Revenge Of The Sith for the first time. After finding out that those movies were a prequel to an already existing story, it made me less impressed with them, but I can still remember what an amazing journey of an experience it was watching them for the first time. If the original trilogy didn't exist, those movies would've been really up there for me. Making a sci-fi epic that presents itself as a heartfelt heroic story but gradually turns into a dark and edgy af downfall plot about a chosen one becoming an evil psychopathic monster who threw away all of his potential and destiny and became the very thing he was destined to destroy for a selfish reason, would've been ballsy as fuck even today. Imagine if Harry Potter ended with Harry becoming a new Voldemort, murdering all the first-year students at Hogwarts, and enslaving all the wizards and Muggles
>>220365132>Imagine if Harry Potter ended with Harry becoming a new Voldemort, murdering all the first-year students at Hogwarts, and enslaving all the wizards and Muggleskinda based id watch that version of harry potter
>>220365132bait used to be believable
Remember these faggots? Proudly singing ''George Lucas raped our childhood''? They made their video private. lel gen x on suicide watch
>>220364505Several thousand systems is a crazy high number. Especially given we see the galactic senate has room for a few hundred representatives at most, the entire PT and OT stories take place around 10 planets at most, and feature the same dozen species of Aliens. The clone army is also given as 200k with 1million more to come. The idea that there are trillions of random Aliens spread out over 10000+ systems all wiling to rebel against the Republic which must therefore be another 10000+ systems just doesn't compute with the scale shown to us.
>>220365317>The prequels were loved
>>220365231>I have nothing to say. I just wanted to show this picture where I drew myself as a giga chad and you as the soijackkill yourself
>>220365081Explain with your big boy words what you think is so unoriginal about Star Wars.
>>220365360The outer rim wasn't involved- that's hundreds of solar systems right there if not a thousand
>>220365179The prequels are based as fuck and show how false flags and fake forever wars can be used to overthrow a Republic
>>220363621dunning kruger shit eating retard strikes again
>>220365132The 2000s were based because the creators were not afraid to write deeply fucked, psychopathic, and downright evil protagonists who did the most vile fuck up shit and had equally twisted mentalities and worldviews. Writers actually had balls back then.
>>220365526don't forget I called out your shitty bait
>>220364820Been here quite a long time but I'm still taken aback by some anons that try to"inform" others or "fuel a discussion" by talking about a very real thing but completely making up everything about it but its existence.I know nowadays people mostly come here to vent and dump their intrusive thoughts without a care, but something like this goes beyond an ordinary shitpost. Seriously, what kind of person would write this huge amount of bullshit in such an "honest tone"?
>>220365742implying it's not in reference to the prequels being complete dogshit, nice try midwit
>>220365802>implying it's not in reference to the prequels being completeMaybe, but you got the reference completely wrong. It's clear you did not actually watch the movie, you made up an ending that does not exists.I mean, you're that anon, right? I'm curious, how old are you? Are you in the first world?
>>220365132>Imagine if Harry Potter ended with Harry becoming a new VoldemortHave you actually read Harry Potter? That's literally what the whole story is about:Harry actually killed Squirrel and incinerated his body, then claimed he did it because the victim had been possessed by Voldemort>Harry unleashes a Basilisk on the school, abducts Ginny Weasely and rapes her, then makes up some story about a possessed diary>Harry helps a dangerous animal and a convicted murderer escape, excuses it by shifting the blame on his best friend's rat>Harry kills his rival Cedric who is about to beat him in some shitty tournament, then blames it all on Voldemort>Harry tries to kill his cousin, blames dementors>Harry kills Dumbledore, blames it on Snape>Harry kills Snape and burns down his school, says that Voldemort came back from the dead and did it>... and "All was well."
>>220365860>I refuse to read between the lines
>>220364790There was a 2011 blu-ray release with further changes unless I'm completely mistaken
>>220365640>Drakengardhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA1ZH49EusM
>>220363348The actual truth is:1. Prequel hate was around long before RLM 2. RLM didn't start Prequel hate but they made the discourse around Star Wars both better and worse because now midwits don't have to say "Jar Jar sucks" or harass Jake Lloyd and Ahmed Best, and just mindlessly copy whatever talking points RLM had without thinking, like the Plinkett character test, so now discussion was just insufferable in a different way3. A lot of these midwits defend the Sequel Trilogy without realizing they look dumber than RLM for doing so
>>220363348People who make those disgusting caricatures ought to be whipped.
>>220365951What is there to read? You explicitly described the ending of the movie - and it was completely made up.I get that you won't satisfy my curiosity completely, although I did get some ideas of what kind of person you are and what kind of people say dumb shit like that.Oh well, carry on with your mindless shitposting.
>>220363348They were still better than the sequels.
Everybody is entitled to their own stupid opinion on the internet but I will never let people forget Disney's hamfisted social media attempt at rehabilitating the prequel trilogy after it was sold but before the sequels came out.
>>220363348I don't get the point of this argument>well the prequels were hated too at firstlet's say that's true, they still had absurd merchandise sales through their run and 10 years on they had a fanbase. Sequel merch ends up at Big Lots and 10 years on still has no fanbase. The only people who seem to argue on behalf of the sequels are people who don't even like star wars but are desperate to convince star wars fans they should totally watch these movies (that you yourselves won't watch) to prove some retarded political point. It's the WNBA argument of science fiction>well I won't watch it>but you need to watch it to make me feel better about my politics chud
>>220366533the way I've heard it described is that the OT is a fine meal at your favorite restaurant, the prequels are a dry gas station sandwich with a bag of stale chips. The sequels are a steaming log of shit, when looking at the shit suddenly you find yourself saying that gas station sandwich wasn't so bad.
>>220366605I find it hilarious that virtually nobody ever mentions the spin-offs when discussing the franchise as a whole. (Rogue One gets mentioned here and there, but not that often)
>>220366630The spinoffs don't inspire as much of an emotional reaction because the bad ones tend not to stick around, nobody is trying to convince you to watch Solo 10 years after the fact for example. The Sequel trilogy has been lingering like a bad fart for years due to the sheer amount of money and political nonsense that got sunk into it. Mandalorian always feels like a whole separate discussion, like Batman and DC comics, nobody watches a Batman movie and cares what DC is doing for example.
>>220366409projection
>>220366572idiots bought prequel merch thinking it would be as promising to a collector as the original trilogy, they were wrongthere's so few cool things about the prequels, shipwise: you got the silver bullet ship, the jedi fighter, and the droid fighter. All the capital ships suck and are unaesthetic versions of their original trilogy successorsNone of the characters have memorable or cool lines, even yoda felt hollow compared to his original trilogy versionThe ground battles all had stupid looking vehicles and walkersThe prequels had terribly designed models for a toy lineThe wearable merch is what sold t-shirts idkwhatever the prequels sold merch wise wasn't because of the quality of the media, but probably from the nostalgia of the original trilogy and fomo
>>220366630>>220367017this is backwards, rogue one sucks compared to solo, but solo came out shortly after the last jedi which killed interests in the franchise
>>220367484The prequels have so many memorable lines that have become timeless memes. Darth Maul is one of the best character designs in all of star wars. The pod racing scene spawned one of the best video games of its era. You're retarded.
>>220367509Rogue One is the only good Disney star wars. Solo turned han solo in to a sad little orphan boy with a heart of gold who only became a smuggler to simp for a girl who winds up cucking him.
>>220367509Counter argument: Solo had Darth Maul in it.
>>220367484>None of the characters have memorable or cool lines,>now THIS is podracing >let's try spinning, that's a good trick>GENERAL KENOBI>Hello there>Thus begun, the clone wars have>I see through the lies of the jedi>Is it possible to learn such powers? >not from a jedi>if you're not with me, you're against me>YOUR new empire?>I hate sand>the 4 panel meme of anakin talking to Padme in the nabboo fieldsThe prequels are full of timeless memesThe sequels gave us>They fly now?>Somehow, Palpatine has returned >Matt the radar technician And otherwise are culturally irrelevant
>>220367526this is so ridiculous, you mention the prequels have so many memorable lines and then you follow it up be referencing a character which is essentially a mute for the entire time he's on screen, you're so pathetic the original trilogy was so memorable people would quote obi'wan and mimic yoda's vocal mannerisms and accent because of his sage like wisdom he was dropping in the original trilogy, if you only saw the prequel trilogy yoda wouldn't have nearly the impact
>>220367642You most be a reddit mod for r/prequelmemesBecause this is word for word the meme spam disney flooded the internet with and annoyed the fuck out of people with for yearsNone of that shit is memorable, it's annoying meme spam from more than a decade ago trying to rehab movies no one wants to remember existing, memes at that time were about being annoying not memorable, big difference, like the difference between being cool and a fucking dork, the prequel memes are fucking dorkshit I'm not arguing in favor of the sequels you brainbroken tardfaggot, the prequels and the sequels are both pure diarrhea shit
>>220367885Not that anon and I have better things to do than argue with you, but Yoda's "Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering." always stood out to me.
>>220367642Do you think I really want to remember General Grievous and how under utilized that character was or how he was a clown for most of the time he was on screen, they only recently gave him an origin comic that made that character tolerable and cool
>>220363838This might be true, but it is also true that the prequels sucked. If you liked the prequels you where a small child when you saw them
>>220367642I don't want to remember pod racing, that shit was stupidlike you don't know the difference between shit memes and something that's memorable, probably because your generation is the most nihilistic bunch of faggot snarkers the planet has ever seen
>>220367885Disney made the shill site r/sequelmemes to try and leech off the organic popularity of r/prequelmemes. Disney openly hated on and ignored the prequel era until they got desperate after the sequel trilogy and old republic failed.
>>220368003>I don't want to remember pod racingClearly you're a faggot who never played the Playstation game.
>>220367949He was cool in the extremely popular Clone wars cartoon and the Genndy clone wars cartoon, which you clearly never have seen.
>>220367949>how under utilized that character was or how he was a clown for most of the time he was on screen
>>220367775Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is.
>>220368003the podracing shit is the opposite of nihilistic snark, do you even know what those terms mean? It's extremely over the top, earnest, and colorful. Nihilistic snark is that "uh who talks first" shit that happened in the opening of the sequel trilogy.
>>220367885>>220367951>>220368003This meme format alone has more global cultural impact than the entire sequel trilogy
>>220368098r/prequelmemes was not organiccome on
>>220368117correctI played real video games on a computer during the golden age of gaming
>>220368139that's not the fucking prequel moviesI completely acknowledge the quality of the clone wars cartoon, it literally rehabed the franchise for them to crater it again with the sequelsthey're literally incapable of putting out good star wars content on either the big screen with movies or the small screen with tv series, like they've lost the ability or talent to do so
>>220368164yea, there's another onefucking pointless, just like benecio del toro's characterthe sequels being shit doesn't make the prequels good, put it on repeat in your head
>>220368251It was. Disney hated the prequels. R/sequel memes is the inorganic Disney version with paid off Disney shill mods. The prequels are genuinely beloved by the generation of kids who grew up on them and the clone wars cartoons. Only gen X grandpa boomers, fat old millenials and boomers hate them.
>>220368226you're an autist if that's how you're going to interpret what I said
>>220368233jews aren't white
>>220368373No,the prequels are a bad political drama, go watch a quality program like the west wing
>>220366533So the prequels kill star wars but disney buys it to pretend people liked the prequels
>>220368443The prequels are a timeless political drama told in a way that kids can understand. You're an old boomer probably pushing over 40. You're out of touch, gramps.
>>220366533>>220368251>>220368443>deranged Gen X hackfraud copium

>>220368707Zoomer here. I like the prequels because of the character-driven story, cool lightsaber fights, and Anakin's character and his arc. The fantastic Clone Wars show makes those movies even better. It's funny that you middle-aged, fat, balding fucks whine about le Jar Jar and le sand but give Chubaca and "NO IT'S IMPOSSIBLE!" a pass
>>220369424You can't like the prequels and the clone wars cartoon, the prequels are bland shit that disrespect the ip and the cartoon was made in response to try and rectify that mistake, you're trolling because you don't acknowledge that fact on top of larpingshit bait as always, go get a real job door dashing for your rupees
>>220364038the jj abrams quote is pretty damning. It's not their fault but at the same it showed they had no idea what makes a good movie either.
>>220363348I feel like most of the hate for the prequels were later, most people hated that he kept changing things in the original trilogy way more than the prequels.
>>220363348PREQUELFAGS DESTROYED EXCELLENT THREAD, NEEDS TO BE MADE EVERYDAY
I liked them, but I was 9 years old when TPM released, so of course I fucking did. I think a lot of people liked them, but only in a very, very casual way and a lot of that love just stemmed from being part of a cultural phenomenon/marketing frenzy. I don’t think the majority of watchers were critically analysing the movies.

>>220363348Kids liked the prequels because all they remembered from it were the action scenes, and they also got a thousand more supplementary games/comics/cartoons that overrode the movies themselves

>>220369677I'm saying that the impetus to make that movie is probably more in line with "Han shot first" bullshit than "Jar Jar Binks is annoying." You absolute fucking buffoon.
>>220369727>PrequelCHADS keep winning.Keep winning at what? Sucking cock?!
>>220369743sounds convoluted and contrived
>>220369723Did you have a stroke and miss the podrace, the lightsaber fights, and the space battle?
>>220369677They're defending them probably because it makes losers like yourself seethe
>>220369766That guy you responded to thinks the Prequels are the same as Disney Marvel movies, he's already brain damaged
>>220369766wasn't a fan of the pod racing, felt the stadium light saber fight was done poorly and made the jedi look corny and the space battle was hard to get into when the capital ships looked so stupid compared to the original trilogy
>>220369816Congrats on being retarded I guess
>>220369677They are the highest grossing independent films of all time and popularized several technologies with digital filming that revolutionized the global film industry.
>>220369791no doubt, their lil brown contrarian peckers are throbbing
>>220363348A vocal minority. People like them and Red Letter Media weren’t the majority. They were just hacks who brainwashed the media into hating the Prequels.

We've put up with prequel babbies long enough. Their weaponized autism and shit taste ruin everything. Every thread, every discussion, ruined by their lies. I fully support this long-overdue effort to remove them from /tv/ forever.
>>220369843between the movies being made there was public backlash talking about how shit they were, which culminated with a come to jesus moment with the studio publicly saying we're going to make the last one feel like star wars, which they failed at, because it was already far too gone

The prequels sucked ass. I told my littler sister how much they suck, and she literally kicked me and started to scream and cry.

>UNC UNC UNC>NO CAP>YOU AIN'T GOT THAT RIZZ
>>220363660What "online" you idiot? The internet was for turbo nerds few and far between back when it came out. I was fucking there. The disappointment in ep1 was apparent in the real world. Everyone in my highschool thought it was lame because of Jar Jar alone.

>>220363348Mark Hamill - “I almost got hornswoggled into that documentary. They weren’t calling it ‘The People vs George Lucas’ at the time. But I could tell from the questions they were asking me that it was an open invitation to trash George. And I have issues with George, but I love that man I would never…you know I don’t talk outside the family. It’s just brutal…”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFu2IFdjCawhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JU30obwiqvAAnd then Mike ended up inviting the director for HITB, just to trash George Lucas and shill his biased documentary. Hilarious. Mark knew what was really going on. This was pure character assassination.
>>220370294I remember editing together all the films in sequential order into a single 6 hour long film that we would watch together with my friends. We would only stop it for bathroom breaks.
>>220370377sure you did anon
>>220363348I really love the prequels of Star Wars. Fuck everybody else.
>>220370388I did. I don't know how I can prove it. Let me see if I can find that Video CD I saved it on.
holy shit they're bringing in the namefags nowyou only namefag so your shill handler can check your posts and pay you accordingly per post
>>220370282And yet everyone went to see the next one in theaters and next one too and bought the toys and the videogames and home videos. Its almost like general audiences liked the prequels. But wait that can't be right because you didn't like the prequels and people couldn't possibly have had a different opinion than you.
>>220370482because they liked the original trilogy and afraid of fomo, not because the prequels were good, there was public backlash between movie releases complaining about how shit they were
>>220370507Attack of the Clones got the worst reviews, by both critics and viewing public. Then the last one seemed moderately OK, so people said it was pretty good compared to the schlock that came before it.
>>220370482Plenty of people bought justin bieber albums you dumb fuck lmao. Doesn't mean it's good.
>>220370507Its sad you actually believe that RLM cope.
>>220370538On the whole, most people are essentially dogs with the unnecessary power of speech.
>>220370561Said the grown man who lives with his mom
>>220370538Good or bad is irrelevant to whether people liked it or not, which they did, people liked the prequels, only a bunch of whiny nerds didn't. Get over it.
>>220370568My mom is dead.
>thirty year old jews hated the prequels, that means everyone did too!
>>220370528this comes the closest to the reality of what happened in reality
>>220370587you lie
>>220370637jews would love the prequels since it shits on so much of what people liked about the original trilogy, ya know subversion
>>220365640Drakengard, don't know, no more heroesStar wars, death note, saya no utaDexter, don't know, god of war
>>220363348The picture of George Lucas shrugging off both the fat fanboy and the angry nerd faggot is perfect.I wish the doc retained this energy. When you really think about it, it is hard to get more based than George.
The Clone Wars cartoon was the most serious show that you could catch on Cartoon Network. There's a lot of bad filler, but it has sizeable amount of arcs, like the Vietnam war one, and all the others from the Clone perspective
>>220370738>The picture of George Lucas shrugging off both the fat fanboy and the angry nerd faggot is perfect.>I wish the doc retained this energy. When you really think about it, it is hard to get more based than George.
I don't understand how you can just shrug off a whole movie and expect your reputation not to take a hit.
In my school no one really talked about the prequels despite how much money they made. Fast and Furious got more love. The matrix. Pokemon the movie. By the time 2005 rolled around Harry Potter dominated.
Before the prequels came out george lucas was heralded as a godlike figure in the film industry, they shattered that illusion and people started questioning if he was a hack instead, he got totally exposed and people doubted he was responsible for the success of the original trilogy
>>220363621trvke
>>220370998Hollywood critic shills, at behest of rival Hollywood studios, were ordered to relentlessly smear the prequels in to the dirt and destroy and slander George Lucas's reputation. The gullible trusting public believed the critic shills because in those pre-yputube days film critics word was God. Kids meanwhile grew up loving the prequels, reading the books, buying the merch and watching the cartoon. The prequels are still tge highest grossing independent films of all time, and were produced entirely outside of the Hollywood system, as Lucas famously hated Hollywood. The merch from the prequels earned George billions more.
>>220370998Hollywood was responsible for the success of the original trilogy. Unfortunately, hollywood is being killed by streaming.
>>220370998The special effects started dictating how the movies were made instead of the other way around.
>>220371143>>220370998What's more, after the prequels, all the big Hollywood studios started to steal and use all the digital film and green screen CGI techniques Lucas developed while filming the prequels.
>>220371167Special effects were the same as the invention of photography. It could only happen once. And Star Wars was it.
>>220371143Great job lying Grok
>>220363660I made my dad take me to see Attack of the Clones upon release. I had seen Episode 1 on DVD (he hadn't) but we both used to love watching OG Star Wars with each other growing up. He thought it was so fucking boring and horribly acted. He had no interest in seeing Episode 3 when it came out. I thought it was fine... but I was also a retarded autistic 13 year old who was obsessed with all the races and machines and other lore, not so much the movie itself.
Star wars only has 3 good movies. Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, Revenge of the Sith

>>220363348the prequels were kinda shit, but the vitriol around them is just pure autism amd those haters deserve to be mocked for being unhinged neckbeards
>>220370587Said the whiny nerd
>>220371837There was vitriol but not anymore. No one brings it up except prequel apologists like you. Just shut the fuck up already and it'll be over.
>>220371837The prequels were absolute revolting dogshit
>>220363970Crying it's for kids makes it worse, our children should be given the best.
>>220363751What's the issue? Tech in star wars allows people to live on uninhabitable shit holes, there might also be systems where people only live in space stations or something

>>220371719>>220371733>impotent uncseethelol
>>220363348>surprised the guy in the bottom left hasn't been turned into a basedjakOn the topic though yeah the prequels weren't seen as masterpieces back then but they weren't also so filled with vitriol or supreme backlash. Episode 1-3 were big events regardless of what angry nerds think of them and how they "killed their childhood" which is and has always been a retarded take, the Sequels damaged the soul and any future expectations which is far worse because no one cares anymore.
>>220364038RLM absolutely deserves the lion share for the movies being over hated. Sure they were simply there at the right place right time but, If you shared any positive take or opinion of the prequels you would have people ask if you seen the Plinkett reviews. All discussion and criticism would just turn to Mikes talking points and any ideas of how to fix star wars also just branch from them as well. That with the fact that the fixes they want are contradictory, to paraphrase "The lightsaber is just a tool why is it being revered... The lightsaber is like the be all thing it turns jedi into superheros having it used like a tool just makes it less special" its nonsensical when you actually keep track to what's being said. The parroting just makes any discourse about the movies almost impossible and people taking it as critical dogma harms the prequels more then anything in the films themselves
>>220363621Lmao why did this trigger people
>>220363621Except it's the other way around, Lucas knew exactly what he was doing, but simplified it too much, so by the time the Prequels came around people who thought they understood what was going on, but didn't, threw a hissy fit.
Someone call RLM
>>220363348In Summary;>This "documentary" is cringe.>The Prequels are still garbage.Thanks for posting this again.
>>220363621>this guy who's a household name and created the greatest movie franchise of all time reminds me a lot of this literal who who no one's ever heard ofThanks for that comparison.
>>220363888I find it difficult to believe people gave him that much shit over being in a mediocre film, something else happened there to have his life turn out so tragically.
>>220363348>Two virgins seething = everyone was seethingYou RLM fags are truly a new level of retarded. Your constant tendency to identify with the middle aged kissless losers like Mike is ironic but understandable.
>>220365081You've literally not argued one single point in your entire thread of seethe. You've avoided the rebuttal seven times in a row now. Did your father skull fuck you?
>>220365018Youre offering nothing to back up your claim but insults so you really seem like the retarded one.
>>220370482It's because the OT was a cultural phenomenon and PT was cashing in on that good will. At that point, the series had banked enough good will that people were willing to sit through a couple duds. >>220371143Everyone shat on the PT because they are objectively bad movies.
>>220372676>Everyone shat on the PT because they are objectively bad movies.Only shill critics and boomers and gen X boomers who repeated critic opinions while pretending it was their ideas thought this.
The Jedis are shit
>>220372060The prequels are flawed masterpieces.
>>220371216Take your meds
>>220372849No one normal speaks like you do. You should know better than to take your retarded autistic opinions public.
People blame literal who's but fact is every site with a nerd user base including 4chan shit on the prequels. Half the dialogue in 3 was ridiculed especially Noooooo!
>>220372922I speak like I do, boomer.
>>220372991Half the dialogue in a new hope and return of the jedi is ridiculous. In return of the jedi, Harrison Ford is acting like he gives zero fucks and is chuckling at his own bad dialogue as he recites it.
>>220363348That's because nobody knew how much worse it could get.
>>220373495The dialog in the first 3 eps was fine; it was the prequels' that was dry & awful.
>>220363621George knew what he was doing the whole time, making a kid's movies.
>>220363621>a total idiot who accidentally created a cultural phenomenonMike created AVGN, not James.
Phantom Menace is the single worst big-budget movie ever created, in my personal opinion
>>220373584Rewatch a new hope and return of the jedi. Both are full of terrible dialogue and cheesy meme lines. Empire Strikes Back has good dialogue because Lucas didn't write it.
>>220374023>Cats>Endgame
>>220374098I do, every few years; they're great, just like I said. I recently tried to rewatch the 4th ep. after 25 years and I felt like that guy from Clockwork Orange: you had to strap me down and force my eyes open, desparately hoping it would get better.
>>220374159You hate A New Hope that much?
I was a kid when the prequels came out. I loved episode 1 and 3 but found episode 2 to be insanely boring except for the Yoda fight. Also a lot of people disliked the liberal politics that Lucas inserted into it which is probably where a lot of the prequel hate comes from.
>>220374178Whatever the 4th ep. was. With Jar-Jar & Analkin.
>>220363621Both are also close personal friends with Steven Spielberg.
>>220363660>Star Wars fanbabby calling other people "autistic manchildren"
>>220363838>independent films>20th Century Fox
>>220363348I mean, twitter was trending with Indian and similar retards blaming the hate on the prequels on RLM. It went so fucking dumb they even blamed them for the advent of modern conservatism.Prequeloids are mentally deficient, that's why they pretend to like those movies.
>>220365132If this isn’t a lie, I find it both incredibly fascinating and near impossible to believe that someone could watch the entire prequel trilogy whilst not knowing they were prequels. How does that happen?
>>220363888>>220372487I heard it was actually mostly classmates who bullied him. Which makes more sense, since those are the people he'd have had to deal with every day without much say in the matter.
>>220376016>he thinks a lack of association with one studio or another is what indicates an independent productionLucas got sick of all the union bullshit and internal palm greasing required to work around the dozen individual guilds each requiring their kick backs. Him telling the unions to get bent and doing shit outside their system is what made almost all of hollywood so mad about his success.
Prequel defenders are largely just zoomers seething that people don't like the movies they grew up with. I say this as someone who's fairly indifferent to the PT.
>>220376242*seething at the fact that
>>220369677Defending? lil nigga I just said I liked them because I was 9 years old and that the majority of fans were just mindlessly swept into the hype. Are you really this retarded to believe that was an attempt at defense?
>>220376242How old do you think Zoomers are? You are aware that the Sequel Trilogy is Zoomie’s First Star War, right?
>>220376319The oldest zoomers are pushing 30.
>>220376190>>he thinks a lack of association with one studio or another is what indicates an independent productionYes, that is literally what it means. Independent from the major Hollywood studios.>Him telling the unions to get bent and doing shit outside their systemYou mean quitting the DGA in the 80s? Who cares, he still had to deal with SAG, Equity, Bectu, etc. One person not being part of the applicable union doesn't make the film independent.
>>220376339So they’d be born very late into the 90’s at the earliest - do you think they were watching the prequels when they were fucking 4 years old and staunchly defending them for the rest of their lives? Did you not see the Prequel hype in real time? It was people aged 10 to 30 that were going crazy for them. Star Wars is very clearly a generational thing.>Boomers and GenXOriginal trilogy >MillennialsSpecial Editions and Prequels>ZoomiesClone Wars (for some of them), Sequels>AlphasThe wasteland of NuWars
>>220363660Explain every fucking parody making fun of prequels for being shit.
>>220365637>le dunning kruger
>>220376505How many people need to talk about being 9-14 when the prequels came out and recognizing they were shit before you stop pushing this completely false narrative?
>>220363348The idea that RLM gaslight multiple generations into hating those films is retarded. Those videos have a few million views, the average person you’d ask about them has never heard of RLM or the Plinkett reviews. Star Wars, on the other hand, is a massive cultural icon, it was the prequel movies themselves that made people think “wow this sucks”.Blaming RLM is actually paying those guys a compliment by massively overestimating their cultural impact.
>>220377089only one post in this thread mentioning the ecelebs has any replies.
>>220376519This might come as a surprised to you anon, but most comedy writers are massive nerds.
why is everyone talking about star wars all of a sudden? did some new disney slop come out?
>>220377210Stars wars day was this weekAnd some fags on twitter brought up the ongoing argument about the prequels not being that bad
>>220377210Disney said they're erasing the sequels
>>220364505If you look at the senate it's already several thousand representatives. It also makes the universe feel too populated that they have a galaxy that has around 10k different space faring species all at once. That just sounds like something that would make forming a galactic republic an impossible thing to do.
>>220377246They didn’t. It’s a rumor with no basis to it. Zero chance they do this. The Rey movie and Starfigter are both coming next year, they’re not gonna sabotage those by preemptively decanonizing them
>>220377266if only there was an order or clairvoyant space wizards with limited mind control powers to ease tensions before they could result in conflict.
Everyone always hated the prequels.
>>220377319It’s funny how the franchise revolves around the Jedi yet the Jedi are incompetent in every Star Wars story from the movies to the shows to the games. Like they’re good fighters but suck at their actual role as a monastic order of peacekeepers.
>>220363838have you even seen the movies?
>>220376519That was more a question of them being contemporary with each other.
>>220377371because that's hard to write.
>>220377319They would be constantly having to put out squabbles to the point they might as well just become negotiators as full time job instead of monk warriors.
>>220376141In this case it could very well just be confusion about episodes 4-6 being the ones that came first. Someone who doesn't know a lot about Star Wars would probably just assume the prequels came first and are "the original trilogy", because why wouldn't they?
>>220377371They were never originally written as guys who hold talks. They were peaceful warrior monks who practiced their religion in isolation and when the galaxy needed to be protected they would get called on. Making them constantly being involved in each situation takes away the mystery around them
>>220377810>Hmm the first three movies seem to look far more modern in production value vs 4-6 which looks like something from 50-40 years ago>Eh whatever
>>220377894You wouldn't know that unless you'd already seen the films.
