| Topic | C/D: Force Awakens is a nostalgia pandering mess |
| bfslick50 03/16/24 1:03:39 PM #108: | It really makes no sense that Last Jedi is so much like Empire. The Empire was dealt a massive blow in New Hope but end of the day theyre still a galactic wide government. The First Order isnt, they have control of just one corner of the galaxy. They dealt the New Republic a massive blow but Pearl Harbor didnt affect the US Atlantic fleet. Theres still ship yards in Corellia and smaller divisions stationed elsewhere. With the collapse of New Republic, individual planetary leaders are going to by and large turn to Leia over new Palpatine. Why did her experience as a statesman accomplish nothing between TFA & Last Jedi?
Because TFA was a nostalgia pondering mess and thats the lesson the producers learned. They started with Empire framework to repeat the formula. They did more tweaks in Empire to LJ conversion. LJ is a mess with some unforced errors but a lot of its problems started with the faulty foundation that is TFA. --- "Something's wrong!
