TLJ is a ful a bad writing, sexism and racism. And people just give a it a free pass.
Agreed. I always thought the way he treated the minority characters was messed up and its one of my reasons for strongly disliking the movie. They were all reduced to one dimensional/stereotypical characters. What he did with Finns character was especially terrible. The actor himself was furious at it.

Honestly the most WTF worthy part of Revenge of the Sith is how Anakin goes "he should be put on trial!" to "ok time to kill the kiddos!" in the span of about 3 minutes.
Im always surprised Anakins rather abrupt turn gets such a pass from the fans. It is a huge black mark against RotS imo. Its why I cant get into the RotS is on par with the OT crowd.

because it's already expected. they know he will become Vader, it's just a minor detail.

A lot of fans have seen the Clone Wars series.

Mark Hamill's reaction pretty much summed up how all the true Star Wars fans felt.

Disney should have allowed JJ Abrams in control of the whole trilogy.

Really though, I can see how people overinflate RotS to that level just because of how bad the previous two are.

To this day though, I don't know how anyone thought to themselves "Hey, you know Darth Vader? Pop culture icon and one of the most menacing, imposing, and downright terrifying villains of all-time? Yeah, let's make a movie trilogy about him in various states of angsty adolescence. People will love it!"

It's just baffling to me.

Like someone else said though, if they really needed to show Darth Vader when he was still Anakin, Clone Wars absolutely knocked it the fuck out if the park.

Hayden Christensen is fine.

It's stuff like Dooku that ruins the movie, because you're sitting there like "Man, there's a lot of feels here. I hope this doesn't turn into a farce at the end."

which it does

Super colorful, Gungans 2.0, slapstick droid action, ninja Yoda, you name it. And at the end of the day, its like... This is what they had this guy do all that acting for? Psh

Maybe. Maybe not.

I rather not test it. Good thing it's likely never happening and they quietly canceled it. Best he'll get is a single movie when Star Wars reaches a peak again.

Expected doesnt mean its not important or you can half-ass the plot point. It was poorly done, and the movie suffers for it.

A vast majority of movie watchers havent seen a single episode of Clone Wars. Using a childrens cartoon that came out three years after the movie as a crutch is dumb. I also think Clone Wars is vastly overrated by the fans, but that is a different discussion.

You mean a series that came out later to retroactively fix some things that were undercooked?
