All three prequel movies were considered trash, it's just between the time aotc released and before filming started on sith, the studio and lucas acknowledged how badly they fucked up with the first two movies and made a public apology to try and do better with the last one
sith is still shit, but they apologized for making two utter pieces of garbage before it released, that's where your ill placed apologia and revisionism is actually coming from

The prequels were never bad. They were different to the OG trilogy, but not necessarily bad.

>>220851386
George made them to be like 1940s serials he grew up with and thats fine. I like that, but he still made the major mistake of making anakin a child, then making him a teenager who was already shitty. We never saw him turn into a bad guy. Also the second film should have been his turn to the dark side, and the third film should have been him as Vader.

George really fucked up.

His hand was shot on the sail barge and didn't function right, so he fixed it afterwards in a scene and put his glove over it again. The hand it the key to make him stop and think in his moment of rage where he cut off his father's hand again and this realisation made him throw down his weapon and surrender, which caused Anakin to emerge from Vader and save his son from Palpatine.
Anakin, on the other hand, used dismemberment and setbacks during his entire journey always as a push to become more aggressive and vengeful and vicious. Losing his pod engine caused him to murder sebulba, losing his lightsaber on coruscant and geonosis made him more reckless during his missions, losing his arm to dooku made him vengeful and he cut off Dooku's hands and murdered him, after he got clipped by Obi Wan he turned into a vicious brute like Grievous before him. He had nothing else anymore. His body was a robot.

As someone who was almost 40 years old and who has watched this all unfold... I feel like the actual action and the plot line of the prequels is really good and shakespearean, but I think honestly the worst part of it is the dialogue written by Lucas. I think you could take the exact same movie and rewrite the dialogue to put them a lot closer to being as good as LotR. The story of Anakins fall and Palpatines rise is fantastic, it would just take a script edit to make it legendary. Its just... maclunky.

Your praise is always about the "fight scenes" or "space battles", never the story. It's as if you like the prequeks more as a...toy commercial for your SW toys.

The Revenge of the Sith novelization essentially does that. It rewrites most od the dialogues and fills in some gaps in the story, while at the same time leaving the whole story intact.

The thing the prequels have over the OT is being better for rewatches because there’s more stuff in the background and busier sets.

At some point fans can recite every OT line and know the movement of every single character and every musical cue but the prequels will always be more intense to rewatch because they’re more fluid and busy

>>220855848
Even as a kid I liked that the SW universe wasn’t just crazy war scenes against an evil Empire but had boring stuff like taxes. It makes the OT events more special to know that at one point a blockade over one planet’s taxes was the biggest thing going on.
>>
>>220857714
Let's be honest: A big deal that makes the prequels more appealing is the clones, because they are the ultimate hero soldier archetype. They are the absolute good and fight for a good ideal and are loyal to Obi Wan and Anakin. It is more appealing than the shabby rebel terrorists that can only do suicide bombings or the kinda useless stormtroopers that look cool, but don't act cool. The clones diving into the arena to save the jedi from bugmen and robots is gorgeous and awesome. Everyone wants our world to be like the Republic with a grand standing army that protects the week and kills and conquers third world dictators.

I don't want to defend Lucas's writing for every character. But aside from his horrendous romance dialogue, I honestly don't find much fault with it.
He is able to make dialogue that can be deep and meaningful and yet have the delivery be quick and witty.
Just speaking broadly, of course there are plenty examples that aren't romance that come across as goofy or need some exposition that came along much later in another movie or EU stuff to make sense

This has been stated by older fans for nearly two decades now, and try so hard to diminish the down right impressive display of choreography and acrobatics in the live action swordplay scenes as childish and dismiss the fact that the entire reason why Lucas made Star Wars the way it is, is so he can sell toys to have a uniquely profitable movie that will continue to make money for decades after the film. While the story of the first three films is literally a hero's journey story that transforms medieval fantasy tropes like a damsel in distress, a black knight, a evil wizard who is in a literal wizard tower, mixed in war tropes that became popular after WWII ended like dogfights, super weapons, conflict in far away exotic lands, and that industrial look and feel to everything. At it's very soul Star Wars is made to appeal to those tropes that have enticed children for literal centuries now and wrap it up into a single intellectual property.

You are never going convince anyone that you are not some Sonic Reducer by acting like it is only the Prequels that are made to have aspects that appeal to children but the Original Trilogy wasn't.

I would absolutely say that the original Cloud City and Bespin was dogshit. It quite literally looked like the backrooms.
If any change to the OT was necessary, it was those.

>The thing the prequels have over the OT is being better for rewatches because there’s more stuff in the background and busier sets

You can bond with girls over the prequels and FUCK. You can only huff and heckle with your weekly modelling club and fantasy football night about how good Star Wars was 50 years ago, but never any other movies from the 70s, because they are heccin misogynistic EDGY garbage!!!

Who cleaned this massive fucking complex? Jedi jannies who didn't pass the test to make it to Knight? kek
At least Palpatine employed PAID jannies to maintain the palace.

anon, let's not kid ourselves.
the heavy usage of cgi slop from episode II onwards and altering the old episodes by replacing practical effects with more cgi crap ruined the series.

Correct.

To be fair, Gen Xers like RLM are the same way about the OT. Star Wars has always been childish crap that they treat as gospel for greatness.

That's bullshit, considering Ep 1 and 2 are some of the slowest movies in the series.
