Just becuase they bought the rights doesn't mean anything. It's all just really BAD fanfiction in my eyes

You realize canon is not about quality, right? Really BAD fanfiction can be canon if the people in charge say it is.

So If I buy the rights to Pokmon and turn It into a documentary about football, that would still be canon in your eyes?

Lucas is shit. he didn't even have as much to do with the creation of star wars as people think. he didn't even direct 2 of the 3 OT movies. everything good in the OT was the idea of someone working with him. and tons of his bullshit ideas got rejected. if Lucas had as much control in the OT as he did in the PT, they would have bombed

This is so hilarious. You don't own Star Wars. Liking a thing entitles you to nothing. Canon is what they say is. This is the same way everyone had to suck it on the Special Edition changes. The next iteration of Star Wars collection after IX is going to have nine movies. Hell, it might have 11. Everyone needs to stop throwing temper tantrums because someone played with their toys in a way they didn't like.

The new movies are objectively better than the PT. Motherfucking nerds care about "muh canon" than quality. Even if you think the new movies mess up the canon and/or suck, they are still better. When the main character of your trilogy is infamously terrible at acting and even accomplished actors spoke classically terrible lines and Jar Jar, there is only so much upside. The movies don't even look very good. They haven't aged as well as something from the same time like Lord of the Rings or even the original trilogy to be honest. At least the OT has the excuse of being really old in comparison.

Whoops, I quoted the wrong post. My point is that people will try to delegitamize something they don't like by saying is isn't canon, when really that means nothing. It's all fiction, the new movies are just as real as the old ones.

So Jar Jar and Anakin are better acted than characters in the new movies? There are even more, even cringier lines that will go down in history? The PT visually looks better and holds up compared to other movies released around that time? I'm not talking about how Star Warsy any movie is.

On a subjective note, do you really even want the PT to be canon given how they thought midichlorians, trade disputes, and turning Anakin into a little bitch were good ideas? Do those movies really respect the OT or how nerds think the series should be?
