MODERATORS
Yeah, you're quite younger than me. I saw the original trilogy being released in real time. I never liked the "origin story" direction it took after that. Most of these characters were better off with the mystique that spurred one's own imagination imo. I tried so hard to enjoy the prequels, but they didn't feel like Star Wars to me.
I remember seeing TFA in the theater for the first time. It was far from perfect, but it felt like the franchise was back on track. I also loved Rogue One.
Definitely agree that explaining something isn’t always the best narrative choice. Imagination can sometimes be a much better storyteller.
