The original and prequel trilogies are worthwhile viewing. The sequel trilogy, however, presents a different case. While George Lucas provided story treatments during the 2012 sale, these were ultimately discarded. The sequels also marked the end of the Expanded Universe, removed from canon to allow creative freedom for filmmakers. Given that the stories deviate significantly from Lucas’s original vision, is there really a compelling reason to watch them?
I wish i could agree with you, but some critical moments still hinge on “totally not a jedi” force user with staff. Unless I’m misremembering, its been a while.
Don’t get me wrong it’s a good movie, I just don’t share the hype. The premise is cool, but to me personally, it falls a bit flat.
