KC Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I'm sure rogue one is the one I went to see at in the cinema. It doesn't bode well if that was the good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stummer Posted December 24, 2023 Author Share Posted December 24, 2023 Why’s it got such a big following or hype then if most on here reckon a lot of it is shit? . Guessing maybe when the first lot came out it was good for the time and got itself loyal fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well most of us on here are grumpy old contrarian bastards, that probably has something to do with it . Is it over hyped? A bit. Is it totally shit? absolutely not. The cinematography alone makes it worth a watch, each film has groundbreaking visual effects for it's time.

They were groundbreaking when they came out ILM basically created the special effects industry that we know today. The changes made to the films many years later pissed a lot of older fans off, there’s even a South Park episode about it. Atb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I still like to watch the classics, even managed to watch them in the cinema when they remastered them as I was too young to see them the first time around. Chewwy rocks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked interesting just to see how things was done. Thought just from the trailer they had life sussed, seemed to all work a job they absolutely love. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brock1 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I have been watching these lately. I seen the first few released years ago and thought I have to watch the new one's. Well their pretty shit to be honest. I think the big hype is the merchandise to be honest. Anyway I have started now so it looks like I have to finish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue one is passable, but the rest are boring, how someone can make films with an inexhaustible option of plot lines in the universe and make them boring is pretty impressive s/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cursed Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Star Wars (3, 4, 5, and 6, and rouge one, let’s ignore the rest) is awesome, anyone who says different is wrong. /s (the wrong but not the awesome bit ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NezA Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Alternatively you can just skip George Lucas' plagiarism altogether the New Dune films are fucking epic! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe for that one read awesome as “not that bad really when placed in the context of how shit the others are”. I understand that lots don’t seem to like rouge one but I enjoyed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
