So like I never understood what the black things on their helmets were for.. Like I used to think you could flip them down and they could act as a visor or something but that doesn't work...

I rewatched Return of the Jedi today, and it used to be my favorite.... It wasn't that good when I watched it. I'm not entirely sure why, but it was just... boring. And alot of scenes was just a waste and random plots, and random unneeded characters/scenes. It was just a stupid movie too. The Ewoks vs Stormtroopers was cringeworthy, and then Luke.... I really hate Luke. He's not a good Jedi tbh. And then Cp30 being the god was such a waste of time. As well as how stupid and poorly designed the Death Star was. I really like the large super destroyer "Eclipse" (OR that was the Corruption ship in the games...) When it crashed into the death star. But honestly... it was a bad movie. Boba's death = dumb as well.
5.5/10

But I did rewatch New Hope and ESB, much better than I remembered, but I still noticed flaws and problems. Even in Empire Strikes Back which everyone considers to be perfect. I just really do not like the lightsaber battles, and how dumb the Empire is. If those two were improved I would like the OT significantly better.

I like TPM and ROTS better than ROTJ TBH. Maybe even AOTC. Compared to ANH and ESB, ROTJ now just feels flimsy and disappointing.
They recycle the Death Star, they stop making Vader threatening, they have bad dialogue, they give Boba a lamer death than the Wicked Witch of the West, they fail at making Luke cool, they throw lame plots in to kill time, they decided against killing Han or Lsndo, and oh yeah, the fucking Ewoks.

I don't actually know one person in real life who likes the prequels more then the originals, I also don't know anyone who likes TPM...
I walked into school yesterday and I overheard a group of people talking about the new movie and then talking about how bad TPM was and how they think TFA will be miles better (which I agree it easily will from what we seen). They where also talking about how much drugs George as on when he made that film lol

I don't think it to be possible that TFA will be more disappointing then TPM. Or worse then AOTC. TPM was probably better then AOTC mainly because Neason...

www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=853087Umm Canon sources? 1. Revan disarms Ventress in 3 minutes and chops her in half... 2. Revan doesn't even take out his lightsaber and destroys Savage with the force... 3. Revan Electrocutes Grievous to Death... 4. Revan battles Maul for awhile but his superior force abilities decimate him... 5. Revan meets his greatest challenge and duels Dooku for a period of time but eventually overpowers him... 6 See #5 Lol.... Legends sources... Dooku would probably defeat him, Darth Revan isn't that impressive (a lot less powerful then Reborn Revan) and after fighting the first 4 (Mainly Girevous) he wouldn't have much left in him... Perhaps he may defeat Dooku but it would be really close there s no way he defeats Legend Vader

Even though I still enjoy them, there definitely are some flaws... Plus the fact it took about 19 years to build the first Death Star and 1 year to complete about half of the second one. You could probably find an explanation for this, but it's still kind of illogical...

I think they had it in production since before the first one was destroyed but it's not like they had to go through the same problems with the second
But I'd say the originals are pretty perfectly built up, a few problems in ROTJ but they're not terribly bad issues

The Death Star construction issue is sort of George Lucas' fault. He shouldn't have shown the first Death Star so far into completion at the end of ROTS. Unless, plot twist.... that one gets blown up and the one in ANH is the real second one Just kidding, that'd be terrible.

All the films still have plot holes and flaws, the prequels simply stand out more with theirs since they came second.

Or because the prequels have more flaws, ROTS probably has less flaws then ROTJ (maybe) but if you compare the first two of each trilogy the yeah... Prequels lose no contest, It's actually pretty hard to think of anything major wrong with episode 4 or 5.

Lucas had too much control with the prequels, didn't get much second opinions like in TCW for example, he should have taken the same role he had in TCW with the prequels. I am very glad he has nothing to do with the new movies. I heard his ideas where to have the sequels be about teens, kids of Han and Luke... TPM Anakin's was enough...

I think most of the Death Star was built long before ANH however they probably had to fix the technical issues and possibly figure out how to get the laser to work properly, that was probably the biggest challenge and took lots of care considering if it backfired then yeah no more Death Star.. However with the second Death Star this wouldn't have been a problem
