The entire “Star Wars” franchise is badly written. Weak plots. Weak characters. Weak dialogue. Weak acting.

It’s a cultural phenomenon, sure. But it’s low quality. Always has been.

Yeah your right. NO ONE will EVER go see those movies. They will be epic failures that will never be seen by anyone.

Well, at least they did not feature “KHAN, KHAAANN, KHAAANN!!”

Weak characters?


The original Trilogy had some great characters, but they were all Imperials: Emperor Palpatine, Darth Vader (voiced by James Earl Jones) and Grand Moff Tarkin.

Really, it seemed like Jones and Crushing were born to play those roles.

In comparison, Adam Driver in “The Force Awakens” was an absolute embarrassment.

And just the movies have generated over $6 billion in revenue.

I guess the billions of fans are wrong and we should just bow down to your righteous opinion.

Go suck an Oscar.

This one has promise. The trailer looked good and the espionage angle will be a nice departure from the action flick treatment of all the others. IMO, this one can be as good as, if not better than, The Empire Strikes Back. We’ll see.

But they’re fun. Sometimes entertainment exists just to be entertaining.

One of the funniest adaptations was “Blue Harvest” spoof in Family Guy.
