| Topic | Why do so many Star Wars fans hate the new trilogy so much? |
| RchHomieQuanChi 10/10/22 5:13:38 AM #61: | There's a lot of truth to both the ST being disorganized, as well as Star Wars fans generally being a fickle bunch. The biggest problem was Disney not having a concrete direction for the new trilogy, which made it easy for fan reaction to drastically influence the movies. Every movie in the trilogy feels disjointed because every single one of them was a response to fan reaction. TFA was a reaction to Star Wars fans' dislike of the PT. TLJ was a reaction to Star Wars fans claiming that TFA played it too safe. TRoS was Disney trying to play it safe again and literally undoing everything TLJ had setup. The reason Mando ended up being so good was in large part because it knew what it wanted to be and didn't let fanboys steer it in a particular direction. I stand firmly in the camp who believes that TRoS is really what ruins the trilogy. Even if you didn't like it, a trilogy can come back from a mediocre 2nd installment. But when the entire 3rd movie is written as a passive-aggressive retcon to the 2nd movie to such a degree that its own writing and logic suffers, yeah, you can't bounce back from that. --- I have nothing else to say ...
