    Except the old movies are much better when compared side by side to the new ones, nostalgia or not.

      Are they tho? I never watched Star Wars growing up and watched the originals only recently the light saber “fights” are as clumsy as me getting out of bed on a cold Sunday morning.

        Sure, some of the choreography wasn’t up to par with modern standards. But the script was actually interesting, whereas the prequels are just an illogical, boring mess.

        Check out Red Letter Media’s review for tons of arguments for how bad the prequels are. I agree with pretty much all of their points. And while the original movies also have problems, they aren’t anywhere near this many or this bad.
