Lightsabers are overrated.
Yeah, its all mostly meh. The originals were great mostly because I was a kid. Prequels were trash, but 3 was the worst of them. 7 was only better because it looked like they were going back to the roots of SW. 8 and 9 were absolute trash. S1 of Andor and Mando were some of the best stuff they've done in that universe. The rest of it adds very little value at all.
That said, the universe itself is rich and interesting and I wish there was more content that dives into it. KOTOR was my favorite entry in the universe overall and arguably has the best writing.
Also, I would still love to see a buddy cop sitcom set in some metropolitan planet. Think Brooklyn 99 in space. Doesn't even have to be SW. I just want this show.
I'm proud to have kept my anti-Star Wars stance for so many years now. Yes, a good amount of it is spite because people in general won't stop talking about it; However, I've seen enough of the films to find them not entertaining. I won't claim that anything I like is superior, it's just been more fun to tell people that I don't give a flying fuck about Star Wars.
The original movie was kitsch but at least it was original. The second one was just a money grab and should be universally hated for the shit cliffhanger ending. The 3rd one was just a remake of the first one. Everything after that was shit.
I stopped caring after the second trilogy, tbh. And even that, IIRC having watched them quite a few years after they were released.
Never gave a fuck never will, I even dont care if matrix 2 is good or any remake
I like everything Star Wars. Except the kid's shows, of course. Didn't even watch those. But everything else I've seen, almost.
Star Wars has always been immensely overrated since the very first movie. I think those 9 movies are all the same. They are fun to watch, nothing more and nothing less. The animated tv shows are for kids, yet some adults are heavily invested in them. It's on par with bronies.
