I think I’ve only watched just the one movie of the current Star Wars trilogy. The problem I had with these new crop of characters is the worst thing you can have happen, that it’s not that you hate them, but that you just simply don’t care.

Boyega and the rest of the bunch have the charisma of boiled potatoes. Better writing wouldn’t improve it. They need better actors.

Yeah, the prequels ten years ago sucked, I saw the first of the three (?) recent ones, and realized, not only do they suck, but I also am no longer 20 years old. :^)

I already saw enough of these damned sequels. They promised The Last Jedi would be the end, but noooo! They just gotta keep going. Boring. Too boring to even say “booooring”. Just flat-out boring. In fairness to Disney, Lady and the Tramp 2 had some real good artwork, and Don Knots as a comical dog catcher. But I don’t even want to know what most Disney sequels are about.

Bingo. No one cares about the characters.

Actually I don’t disagree with this dude, huge BLM shitlib that he is. I found his character (ex-Stormtrooper, conscripted as a small child) more interesting than “Rey” but he was definitely underutilized (despite being pretty much billed as a co-lead, it definitely was not his story). He and the main white dude seem like ok actors too. “Rey” btw can’t find work other than voice acting.

Terrible films, can’t call it “trilogy” other than having the same characters there was little to bind them. The middle one was actually the best, at least it had some originality.

Star Wars and Star Trek just butchered by idiots that can’t write.

Baby Yoda show is ok though. I heard an Obi Wan show is coming.
