if i had to bet, at least one creative decision in the Disney films was altered because of these reviews. that might sound ridiculous but it's clear they were "course-correcting" with lines of dialogue.

Lucas caring what the internet thinks would have been so absurd at the time.

Jesus Christ why are prequel tards so fucking obsessed with this fat retard's review? Like they are so fucking self concious about this one fucking review that any person that critisizes their childhood favorite film must secretly be some sort of Plinkett fanboy or some shit. Fuck what's worse are these retards blame this fat fuck for the hate the prequels get when they were hated on for literally a fucking decade prior to when these shit reviews came out. It's beyond fucking pathetic to constantly say any detraction to your world view is the direct result of some fucking singular place. Sorry to burst prequel defenders bubble but people genuinely don't like the prequels because they're bad movies and no amount of revisionism or temper tantrums is gonna change that.
>>
>>220582141
none of that actually happens
>>
>>220582328
genuinely, yeah. same way they care about test audience reactions, the YouTuber crowd matters to them now.

some Simon Pegg style nerds hated The Phantom Menace and wrote it into their "characters". RLM created a fresh wave of that for the digital native generation. there are now writers in their 30s who grew up thinking it was remarkably clever criticism.
>>
>>220582351
>you're not allowed to discuss the plinkett review even though it is pointed to all the time in these discussions
>>
>>220582384
90% of the time in a prequel discussion thread it is the prequel defending retard that brings up Plinkett out of nowhere. That is a fact. No on that shits on the prequels ever brings up Plinkett unless its to troll prequeltards.
>>
>>220582141
>he glosses over most of the movie so he can go "this isn't how i wouldn't have done it so it doesn't make any sense"
This doesn't pertain the reviews at all.
You're working on a misconstrued premise. You need to defend the movies on their own merits, not try to discredit their critics. You know you can't, which is why you resort to this petty business, so it's anyone's guess why you try so desperately, haphazardly and impotently to do it.
>>
>>220582351
the internet i visited in the 2000s loved the prequels. nobody ever claimed they were high works of art, but people would have signatures or say 'you much to learn, young padawan' in Counter-Strike. clearly they enjoyed them.

it's the same shit as the Matrix sequels. the people making high effort Flash parodies were cracking jokes, they knew the flaws/reception, but they had positive opinions of those flicks.

RLM ushered in a wave of Orwellian revisionism with their criticisms that felt tired by the late 2000s. you can go read Chef Elf's "100 Reasons I Hate The Phantom Menace" while scrolling other people's images on eBaum's, that gives you the same effect as watching these plebeian "reviews".

This idiotic revisionist fantasy you want to push on people is based on nothing but wishy feelings and thirst for attention.

Wait, I'm even more confused now, can we take it step by step?
There is a dispute about taxation of trade routes to outlying star systems. Got it. Is Naboo one of the outlying star systems referred to here? Is Naboo served by the trade routes that were being taxed?

The only way anyone likes the prequels is because they've ingested so much extended universe media that they forget how boring the movies are on their own.

It's because they're literally trying to rewrite history in their own autistic way by making it seem like "everyone totally loved the prequels bro." It's an actual gayop these guys are running 24/7 because they're RETARDED

That's because picking a favorite when there's so many great options is hard.
>>
>>220582645
they also had some other motives. these are depicted and discussed in the film.
>>
Why does Naboo have a queen who is a child but also elected but not for life but only 2 years, which is nothing in politics (you can't even get anything done in 4 unless you have a dicatorship) ... and also is allowed to make political decisions despite being a little girl ... why is Naboo just an empty grassland. Why do the Gungans life underwater but have an army dedicated to fighting on land ... ok because they have a "dispute" with the Naboo, but about what? It's never mentioned. They had to flee underwater and live in hiding but the Naboo are peaceful and don't even have an army? What's going on on this planet?
>>
>>220583104
Yeah for some reason the TF trusts some shadowy figure who literally has nothing to give them. No saying you will make something legal doesnt mean jack shit when you know nothing about said person.

uh no? lmao. there's a reason why he only directed the first one.

>>220582625
the meme comes from GRRM being interviewed about the lord of the rings which he loved but he said he always wanted to know more about the practical and less savory sides of middle earth. hence him going
>what was aragorn's tax policy like? did he keep a standing army? what happened to all the orks in mordor after the ring was destroyed? did he institute a mass genocide of them? even the little ork babies in their little ork cradles?

nope. his last thing was doing a longer analysis of the star wars landscape particularly on the disney+ shows.

RLM reviews were universally agreed upon because you were underage and not even on the internet at the time
>>
>>220583128
i mean they're allied with the guy, it's possible he's already giving them something they want, or some kind of proof of his promise.

when the Empire hires some bounty hunters, that's just what happens. maybe bounty hunters in the Star Wars setting hate the Empire but need the work, maybe they're contracted to do X Imperial jobs a year, i don't know. it's unimportant beyond what occurs and is said in the film.

>>220583337
Heres the problem with your analogy champ. A Bounty Hunter by defintion is getting something in return for their services which is payment and only get paid when they do what they are contracted to do. The TF is actively invading a planet for Sidious which literally puts in jeopardy their entire organization and they are do this for no solid payout. We dont even get dialog explaining why they trust Sidious aside from fear which is weird considering they are ballsy enough to blockade naboo but not ballsy enough to stand up to Sidious.
