Episode VII was shit from the beginning. I find TLJ more rewatchable than TFA
Expectations were low after the prequels.
It wasn't offensively bad, in fact it played everything so safe that people barely even remember it.
I always hated Episode 7
You've encapsulated the problem.
Episode 7 was a bummer coming after the hopeful ending of ROTJ, but it had set up upon set up upon set up.
Doesn't matter whether JJ had the answers pre-planned or not, Rian was free to use and answer any number of JJ's mystery boxes for his sequel and leave some for IX. Instead, he chose to open them up all at once, revealing them to be empty or full of nonsense for the sake of surprise. The ones he didn't open (Who exactly was Snoke? What are the Knights of Ren?) he didn't even mention, prompting everyone to say they'd been dropped.
As an example of how to do it, ESB makes mention of Jabba's bounty on Han's head again at the start so viewers are reminded that there's more to come.
Episode 7 was completely mediocre but it set the ground-work for me being willing to give the sequel trilogy a chance. I was fine with them retreading a ton of familiar territory to establish the first film if they went in an interesting new direction from the second film onward.
They crashed and burned spectacularly, which makes the first film terrible in hindsight. Especially when you learn that all the mystery box shit never had any actual answers and they were just making it up as they went along. How you don't meticulously plan your film trilogy that you paid 1 billion dollars for the rights for is beyond me.
Episode 7 was shit
starwars fans are worse than bronys
they are horribly dull people in real life and think everything they enjoy is unique
Its sad, get some out door activity's Its really annoying when you are talking to people about hobbys or doing something and some retard starts rambling about bore wars and video games
great we get it, you are sheldon form that gay ass bigbang theory show
and could've been improved upon by TLJ.
It was entirely dependent on that. TLJ was megashit, so the ST now has two out of three abysmal entries.
You're projecting hard.
