electricbugs2 01/14/22 1:16:21 PM #60:	As someone who likes every Star Wars related movie, even the shitty TV ones with Wilford Brimley, the weirdest thing to me about TLJ hate is the difference between the internet and IRL. My good friend is a huge SW nerd and while TLJ is his least favourite of the main 9, he openly mocks people who think its the worst thing ever. Most people Ive met in person like it to some degree and just see it as another SW movie. It only seems to be on the internet that people turn into rabid dogs over TLJ. --- Balenciaga hoodies and Gucci shoes #FreeMelly <cite>electricbugs2 posted [p:961743143] in It cracks ...

The prequels had a story that surprisingly held up, but theyre mired in so much childish shit the movies don't work as movies.
