Since we don't know what Lucas had done, you are making up things. You know that Lucas's way of doing Star Wars was much bigger than what they have done? In scale, in special effects, technology, it was a much bigger work. I can only think that if Lucas had done it, it wouldn't have been released yet. Your explanation for the lack of original work doesn't convince me at all. Why don't you accept the fact that they went for the easy road? They took the elements that everybody loved, to the point of almost being a remake, and to add some new things to introduce new characters. They just choose the easy road: a middle sized budget with nothing outstanding and rehashing the things the fans loved the most. But they failed with the new characters parts. Lucas is the one who created Vador, Luke, Han Solo and the whole Star Wars universe. I give him way more credits than your Kathleen something. In the prequels there were some interesting charachters: Qui Gon and Darth Maul were good, a shame they did not last longer, especially as Dooku was too much of a ghost after. I thought that Palpatine was absolutely perfect and flawless in the prequels. The prequels had great lightsaber fight (I understand you don't want to speak about the embarassing Kylo Ren/Rey duel) that were epic moment, Maul/Obiwan, Obiwan/Anakin, Yoda/Emperor..... There were also large scale battles and the world making (corsucents, unser sea Naboo). The main letdown was the plots which got unnecessary complicated, confused or running too many at the same time. But the last one was flawless. |
Hey my friend. I will support you with this little post of mine.
I will agree with you that the prequels were amazing in some parts and were lacking in others. It's just fair. Lucas wanted to show us something new, some more of the world he created, maybe he was lost in it a little bit but one thing never changes in Lucas films, and that is how the force was meant to be and how you could feel it almost inside you when you were watching the movies. The force was something respectful, something that needed focus, sacrifice and training. The world was deep in it's way and I couldn't believe how shallow it became in the force kwakens.
But I will give you advice: don't waste your energy to explain something if you see that someone want's to see only his own way. It's simple. Spend your time for something more creative.
About the force crackens: I wish it was deeper and has more STAR WARS feel into it. It doesn't. It's just simple action movie and that's it. If someone doesn't understand it, thatn I'm ok with that. Why should we argue about some minor things like how the characters were showed or how the fight were shown. I would like to look at the big picture: was it a real STAR WARS movie for me? - no! Why? Because I didn't feel the greatness of the STAR WARS. I couldn't feel respect, I felt pity and I felt real sad that my beloved franchise is now part of the money making machine. But lets hoppe it will be better in the future. For now I have my own STAR WARS which I know so well. I don't invite any strangers and half-embryo-mimic creatures to my bastion.
Cheers!
