Lucas Film and George Lucas eraseing and deleting squeal abominations from SW

That was a good laugh.  The fact is disney owns starwars and noone can do anything about disneys produtions.

1) Not gonna happen.

2) At least toss the GCI Clone Wars series away along with them.

They should remake the prequels before they worry about the sequels, although if any film of the nine (or even, of the eleven) needs to go, it's Episode VIII, but if it wasn't for that, the sequels would be clearly better than the prequels. As it is, they're still better, but Episode VIII is arguably the worst of the whole series. Solo gives it a run, but it's clearly the worst of the 'Skywalker Saga'.

I would have to say episode 1 and 2 are arguably the worse of the series. Jar Jar Binks, The unnecessary explanation of the force, bad character development, the cringe romance, an overall mediocre writing and average plot. Say what you will about the sequel trilogy but in terms of writing imo they were a notch better than George's. Vader who was seen as a badass became less cool by making his origin story about a whiny brat for three movies straight. Vader was better off not having an origin story with what we got.

While the films are indefensible garbage, and I would like them to be erased. I doubt that would happen unless someone buys Star Wars off of Disney and realistically I know that very likely won't happen.

The first mistake was Disney owning Star Wars, the 2nd and 3rd mistake was letting J.J and Rian create films for the franchise. J.J is a hack who can't do anything more than vista shots, one-liners and macguffins. Rian is just a self-admitted selfish person who made the film just for him, hence the WW2 fetish in TLJ and he has the most basic understanding of what 'subverting expectations' is. The triology itself was a mishandled hot mess, that neither the actors or diectors will defend, with so much production hell going on behind the scenes it boggles my mind when people try to defend these movies.

Back to Disney, I would love for Star Wars to be out of there hands, so that SW isn't owned by a racist, homophobic company. Every display of race, sexuality and gender has been little more than tokenism, even Rey despite being the MC for 3 films barely has any character and they made her a Mary Sue probably to avoid any allegations of sexism, while they spend a trilogy not developing her, hence why the only thing anyone working on the project could say about her was 'WOMAN!'. Then they included a blink and you'll miss is Lesbian kiss, because 2 women kissing is more socially acceptable than 2 men kissing, heaven forbid. But THEN they go ahead and CUT that kiss out for many international markets, ones which ARE homophobic, to the point of imprisoning and even murdering gay people. THAT is who Disney is catering too. And do I even need to mention how Disney lightening Finn's skin and shrunk him waaaaaaay down on their posters for China?

Disney has quite a bigoted history and they haven't changed.

I would agree that there's an argument that Episode II is worse than Episode VIII, but Episode I has positives too - Darth Maul is the only villain in the entire series that comes close to being as good as Vader and Palpatine, Duel of the Fates is up there with any piece of music from the original trilogy (better than most of it, and in the same league as the best of it), that duel between Maul, Obi Wan, and QGJ is arguably the best duel of the entire series, the pod race is fun (if you can ignore every time Anakin speaks). There's a lot wrong with Episode I, obviously, but there's a lot right with it too. Cut out Jar Jar, most of Anakin's lines, and tighten up the trade federation stuff, and there might well be a movie that's an hour and a half long, and quite good.

Episodes II and VIII have no redeeming features that I can think of. Other than that slaughtering Sandpeople was pretty dark, but Anakin being whiny and rubbish ruined a lot of the impact of that.

omg dude thats exactly and i mean exactly what i think....and what ive been trying to say also you took the words right out of my mouth and made them into into something amazing.... love the time and detail you put into your reply.... great job..... i really apprecate that there is some one that shares my opinion.... and i have posted  forms on the old site saying so much how the sequal trilogy is just a cheap rip-off of what lacas as works so hard for.

"Luke had a dream".

I tried to explain it years ago..........what I would have wrote.
