There's just a First Order (Empire) and a Rebellion. No explanation of why, it just is. That doesn't really raise the stakes for me. How did Snoke and co. build this First Order after the Empire was exposed as murderous overlords? Why did people go for that again? The whole universe doesn't have enough backstory going for me and because of that I just don't care as much. Why is there an Empire in episode 4? Where did it come from? Who built it? Man this lack of backstory is just completely killing the movie for me. This is such a dumb rebuttal I'm tired of seeing. There's a huge difference between the two scenarios. This new trilogy is following a mere 30 years after the end of Ep. VI. There's preestablished content that literally everyone knows about now. A New Hope was the very first of the series and people literally knew nothing whatsoever about anything. Not to mention the IRL time difference and how movies have changed and the way the stories and plots are handled. --- NNID, PSN, and GT: Waluigi1 DD:DA Pawn: Xekoben the support mage <cite>Waluigi1 posted [p:892603145] in Star Wars:...
