I completely agree with the acting always being bad in the original movies. People play up Empire Strikes Back, but overall it wasn't even supposed to be good. ANH in particular could have been an incredibly bad movie. I could see how George's peers thought it was terrible before it was finished.

I found this on reddit in a Brighter than coruscant subreddit(what happened that it got full of prequel haters?, looking at you "ReturnOfTheFlounce"), Do people really think this is a plot hole? , people are so determined to find a polt hole where it isn't. thats why i felt the need to post it here. www.reddit.com/r/BrighterThanCoruscant/comments/197lc51/how_did_they_not_realise_palpatine_was_darth/I mean, he is literally telling that he suspects on Palpatine, but you know, maybe he is being cautious,he can't just jump to arrets him without confirmation?, what if is not actually him?, what if Dooku was just lying like Yoda said at the end of Episode II? when Anakin tells him That palpatine is a sith lord he answers ith "our worst fears have been realized". But you know is better to say, "because those horrible horrible prequels are bad written" and other answers using information from outside material don't realise they are not doing htem any favors, it easily explained with common sense, no external sources needed.

jtn90 I did a post on whether or not Star Wars should be rebooted and one guy says they could remake the OT to make it more consistent with the PT why? because of things like leia remembering her mother even thought she died shortly after giving birth? Lucas linked the two trilogies with the special editions though he did say isn't necessary EDIT: The post was done in relation to this article. Matthew Vaughn: Superman Trilogy Failed, Star Wars Must Reboot Luke

Matthew Vaughn: Superman Trilogy Failed, Star Wars Must Reboot Luke the thing with Leia remembering Padme, is that, being a retcon aside, is another case of people thinking there is a plothole where there isn't any( at least iss more undestandable thatn the one from reddit i posted), is it difficult to undestand it is because f hte force? do people forget that Yoda sadi in ESB that you can see the past ith the force?. Luke was subtly testing Leia force abilities and saying that the force is strong with his sister after it. Regarding the post,first of all is not necesary to say I'm totally against a reboot. And while is true that the main movies are about the skywalker, I disagree that this is the problem ith modern Star Wars.

Yeah, a lot of these complaints feel like an epic case of overthinking everything in order to ruin a perfectly good movie. These types will assert these problems are "painfully obvious" but in my mind they are manufactured problems. This is why I don't enjoy reddit. There is a lot of that kind of discussion going on there.
Alot of them are still stuck on the fact that the Prequels don't definitively explain who ordered the Clone Army (they don't like that they have to watch Clone Wars to find out), but for me, even if The Clone Wars series didn't exist, it is painfully obvious that whoever ordered the army was working for Darth Sidious, so it isn't like you need a character to stand there and explain it with an entire page of dialogue.
Like I said, manufactured problems.

Like I said, manufactured problems. Yes, the clone army subplot is another topic of debate, a channel called Star Wars light recently uplodaded a video explaining the subplot from a behind the scens perspective, you can tell what type of coments where posted in the video, but one of then sums up what I think of it. The movies makes it clear even without directly spelling it, it was the Sidious who wanted the army , Jango was hired by Tyranus, Tyranus is Dooku, Dooku was a former jedi, only a jedi could have deleted Kamino from the archives, Dooku tells Sidious about that the war has begun and SIdious answers that everything is going as he foreseen, is clear by just connecting the dots ,that it was Sidious who wanted the army, order 66 scene is should be proof of that, and thats what really matters. The thing that is left unanswered and people are fixated is Sifo Dyas role in the plot, but as I said what really amtters is explained, even if not directly. I interpret Sifo Dyas being the orderer as a way to deceive the jedi into thinking one of them ordered the army and make them and the republic to trust the army and not being suspicious of the Sith. Whenever he initally ordered it but the sith took it for them like TCW explains, or if they took advantage of his dead and made him the orderer doesn't matter because the army ultimatelly was for Sidious first and foremost as part of his grand plan.

Saltier Than Crait is filled with Prequel hating Pieces of Sh*t! just read comments on if Spielberg should have directed The ST naturally they took shots at Indy 4 and the Prequels with one person saying that spielberg could have dialed the silliness from those films Once again Fans of Star Wars (And Indiana Jones) take these Movies way too seriously

The thing that annoys me most about the prequel hating crowd is how their usual line of attack is that the films are "objectively bad". Like, by what standards are they "objectively bad" and how do you quantify that, ya sheathed. Sophistry is the only thing they are good at
You never hear this about any other film
