Starting after 'Return of the Jedi'... I swear, they've all gone down hill, and I even bought the big expensive collection edition that includes up until these new ones... I read the reviews for this 'The Last Jedi' and they all said it sucked. So instead of going out and dishing out $30 for the 4K disc, I rented the HD movie on my cable on demand, and yeah.... it SUCKED. Star Wars is dead.

I want the first 3 theatrical editions on disc. No bullshit. No Jabba in new hope. Original emperor. Han shoots first. That too much to ask ?

I kinda liked it - but what I didn't like: The movie was essentially based on a slow-speed chase.

Actually that's a pretty good description of it. It's a low intensity battle scene from start to finish, and it really follows no story line. It just jumps all around.

I think they're just milking it now for everything they can get. I think the writers must think... aaaah screw it, just make up some crap and throw in some CGI and call it good enough.

I hear there's TWO MORE coming out too...



... and...

Star Wars: Episode IX

And the original Return of the Jedi, with the original Darth Vader / Anikan Skywalker, that appears in the end, not that punk Hayden Christensen. I couldn't stand him from the first time I laid eyes on him. What a snively little PUNK. It was the biggest farce of the entire movie franchise to attempt to get people to believe that whiny little punk is actually DARTH VADER.

I never thought about Hayden Christiansen one way or the other.

HOWEVER ... I WAS disappointed when they pull off Vader's mask at the end of VI. Darth Vader was played by David Prowse, a former professional bodybuilder who was over 6'. James Earl Jones did the voice. Where they dredged up the kindly-faced third dude is beyond me, but it wasn't David Prowse.

I haven't watched any of the last ones they made. It's turning into a 'Dracula movie". Mom: "Go to sleep. They killed Dracula". Me: "Then why does he always show up for another movie?"

Seriously. I saw the first Star Wars in 1977. I was 17. I was over 50 when I say the 6th one. Not sure I'll make it for another 6

Disney owns the rights to make them now. The movies are based on books. I know George Lucas wrote the original story. Episodes I - VI. I have no idea who wrote the books.

I liked Episodes IV, II and III the best. I'll give VI a partial nod solely for Vader throwing that asshat Emperor down the shaft. Even when you could see it coming it was still one of those " bad guy" moments.
