Why do Zoomers think Millennials hated the Star Wars prequels?They were the target demographic
OP is a zoomer. Millenials don’t care about zoomer opinions in any way.
>>223987303i was a child when the prequels came out so i liked them
All generations have lost interest in talking about Star Wars nowadays
>>223987303Zoomers really have an inaccurate preception of what millenials think and do.
>>223987303Zoomers aren’t generally as bright as they think they are and for some reason think everyone older than them is a millennial or a boomer
>>223987303Post the fart scene haha
>>223987303Zoomers think Gen X are millennials.
>>223987303>Why do Zoomers think Millennialsshut the fuck up retard
>>223987705This achievable natty?
>>223987652As a Zoomer I view Millenials as pop culture driven, craft beer drinking social justice warriors who spent years crying about racism and trannies while they did nothing about their economic situation
>>223987696This. I was 10 when the first one came out. I fucking loved Jar Jar.
>>223987725Thats defines every generation in american desu
There's a cultural problemZoomers think millennials have Gen x opinionsMillennials assume all zoomers are Gen alphaBeing next door neighbors is hard.
>>223987747Boomers binded together to take control and power of everything which they still hold to this dayGen X was trying to find purpose by becoming moody and rebellious before eventually settling into a middle class lifestyleMillenials had a moment where they could've stood up against the system after the Great Recession with Occupy Wall Street but eventually the media hijacked their brains into becoming SJWs with Kony 2012 and Black Lives Matter. They then spent the entire decade pushing cancel culture and wokeness while their future got robbed. Notice how they stopped doing that now after realizing just how fucked their economic situation is while they're in their 40s
>>223987826Every boomer I know is more of a blm activist than any millenial I know. They just got their financial safety net before the fall
Millennials are divided between millennials who saw the remastered Star Wars when they were 12 and the millennials who saw the prequels when they were 12. Those who actually enjoyed the prequels and thought Jar Jar Binks was the shit are the most cringe soiboys imaginable, they were the ones ahegaoing at the Jar Jar Abrams """"star wars"""" trailers.
>>223987303General X and boomers who didn't understand them hated the prequels. Millenials not poisoned by the redletter media smear psy op and zoomers tend to enjoy the prequels and recognize them as the flawed masterpieces that they are. Gen X seethes the most against them because they wanted it to be Empire Strikes Back 2.0.
>>223988192These movies had a backlash long before the red letter media review, the first of which was 2009
>>223987725The uprising of sjws was brought on by the oldest zoomers you dumb faggot. By 2015 all the millineals were already off of college campus and in the work force. Then the architects for the uglification of women and gay shit in media were gen xers. Plenty of faggot millineals but they weren't the ones that were in positions to guide the cultural storm. The other stuff is kind of right. >>223987303>>223988209These movies especially the first one was made for the youngest millineals. It's just now people in their early 30s are coming back and saying how much they liked these movies when they were younger.
>>223987652I’ve noticed that zoomers do this thing where they’ll take IPs and trends that were better/more popular in the 90’s and 00’s than they are today like Star Wars, Pokemon, anime, etc. and try to claim that millennials always hated those things. It’s like they’re envious that millennials had cool childhoods pre-9/11, so they want to steal all the fun stuff we had and make it “theirs.” They can’t just appreciate that they’re privileged enough to live in a time when older movies, music, TV shows, and vidya are more accessible than at any other point in history while other previous generations struggled to access a lot of the media they take for granted.
>>223987303I am fucking tired of this prequel revisionism, they sucked then and they suck now Grow the fuck up already
>>223988425Worth noting too that when it comes to video games and even Movies/TV shows and books that Zoomers often consoom them via either youtubers, twitch streamers or tiktok edits and wiki skimming.They also become enraged if you tell them that doesn't mean you actually experienced those.
>>223987303Those who hated the most were Boomers and Gen X. Millenials were the target audience and they enjoyed both the movies and cartoons happening during the Prequels timeline. That Zoombah's brain fried from too much TikTok.
>>223988331>The uprising of sjws was brought on by the oldest zoomers you dumb faggot.Why are you lying?
>>223988505What is it about gen x that people ignore their existence? They've done so much faggot shit and millineals get the blame
>>223988499And yet not a single zoomer has ever heard of twisted metal. Something about that IP is Z proof
>>223988618Gen X are parents of the Gen Z. And majority of them were good parents, unlike Boomers.
>>223987303We watched them but didn't think much of them. Obviously they aren't as good as the originals, they didn't live up to them. Anakin is cringe, that's true and not made up. Jar Jar is annoying, that's not made up. Mace Windu is boring and does nothing. They're very forgettable.The best parts of any of them are the lightsaber duels. If Darth Maul wasn't in episode 1 the franchise might've literally died.
>>223988146I was 12 when TPM came out in theatres. Jar Jar sucked, podracing and darth maul was the shit.That is all.
>>223987303That applies just as much to the original trilogy and everybody loves that
It was gen x who hated these movies not millennials. I'm in my 30s and Episode 3 is my favourite Star Wars movie.
>>223988601I told you what happened, all those epic sjw owns on college campuses were zoomers saying retarded shit. This trend started in 2015 and as I said millineals are at the start of their careers at this point, very few had influence on anything.
>>223987303I really like the storytelling and acting that George specifically chose for these movies, idk why
>>223987303Gen xers hate the prequels, millennials grew up with them
>>223988699The only people who liked them were little kids, hyper nerds and terminal contrarians.
>>223988730The internet wasn't nearly as big as it is now. The second one came out even before 4chan was created. You weren't impressing your friends lying about enjoying something
>>223988505I was in school at the time and they were divisive even for us. Plenty of kids got picked on for liking them
>>223988762We had things like the IMDb message boards, there’s a reason Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back was lashing out at online movie geek culture. People just whined in different places
People try to pretend the prequels were beloved on release even though we have things like Spaced to prove otherwise
>2026>arguing about goy wars
>>223987303Hang prequel kids from trees
>>223988730I was in high school when ROTS came out and every nerd was into Star Wars, Halo, and LOTR back then. As teenagers we did have mixed opinions on the prequels, but everyone still liked Star Wars as a multimedia franchise because it was like the golden era of Star Wars vidya.
>>223988873People can hate the prequels all they want. But it didn't destroy the legacy like the sequel trilogy did where it upset everyone. They couldn't even pull through to make nigs happy by making finn more interesting because the Chinese hated him
>>223987725Of course there are some of those, but that's like thinking all zoomers are broccoli headed skinnyfat failed twinks who aspire to be tiktok influencers and speak like twitter nogs.
>>223988938George Lucas walked away from the franchise after talking about how he wouldn’t make anymore due to how much people hated the prequels, Ewan McGregor has said younger people are nice about them now but for years they were mocked and insulted, Natalie Portman said they nearly ended her career, Jake Lloyd went insane and Ahmed Best nearly killed himself
>>223987303This guy is a retard. The original Star Wars trilogy didn’t do any ironic winking to camera and those movies are cemented in film history. Millennials hated the prequels because George Lucas is a shit writer and Star Wars was good in spite of him rather than because of him.
>>223987724Who cares about being natty bro. Take the Zyzz pill and peptidemaxx until your heart explodes in the sauna before you get to chopped status. As Billy Joel said, only the good die young.
>>223988970The people who viscerally hated the prequels at that time were primarily 30-year-old zoomer manchildren, not millennials. The sequel trilogy was so awful because it was made by a bunch of xoomers like JJ Abrams and Rian Johnson who had spent two decades seething about how George Lucas “ruined” their childhoods.
>>223987705You're fat ugly, bald and useless though. Why do you post other naked men?Average Millennial looks like a numale meme.
>>223988970No one has really done it, but its hard to continue an original trilogy. Critics and fans will bully it harder. I really don't understand why Disney tried to continue the Skywalker saga. They should have just started fresh and there was plenty of material to take influence from.
>>223987725That just says you live in some liberal shithole. Where I live everyone is based from every generation. There are a few faggots but we still call them faggots here.
>>223988762The backlash to Phantom Menace was national news, Bill Maher did a segment on it while he was still on network tv.
>>223987705What race is he? He looks like a dog.
>>223987303>it's another zoomer bluecheck gimmick account drops their mask to seethe about muh millennials episode
>>223987303ou don't always hit the target

>>223989105Most millennials were children. The people who cared about Star Wars and who were old enough to have their voices heard when the prequels started releasing would have been boomers, Gen Xers, and only the absolute oldest of millennials. Most millennials were in middle school or elementary school when Episode I came out and were still riding high on the wave of the recent Star Wars hype, be it from watching VHS rereleases of the movies or playing stuff like Shadows of the Empire or Tie Fighter. To most of them it would have just been new Star Wars stuff. Maybe some kids thought JarJar was more stupid than funny, but I doubt many hated the whole movie as a result.They might have hated them when they grew up, sure. But most of the of-the-time vocal hatred would, by default, have been coming from Gen X and boomers.
>>223989089I’m a millennial and was in school at the time. There were kids being bullied for liking them. The divide was not limited to disappointed adults
>>223987303>star wars>cinematic brilliance
>>223987303I'm Gen X and I hated the star wars prequels.They were shit.
>>223987705>Sam Hyde and Marky
>>223989230>heard when the prequels started releasing would have been boomers, Gen Xers, and only the absolute oldest of millennials.So most of the population.
>>223987826I'm one of those gen xers who never grew out of my WWF Attitude Era moody and rebellious phase
>>223987652They universally seem to think "millennials" are their annoying teacher from high school who is in his 50's now, or some faceless guy who modded them on Reddit. The literally don't know who they're talking about because they're chronologically illiterate. If they're lucky they might be able to identify someone like Pewdiepie because they saw him on Youtube when they were kids (he was playing a character and making content for kids).
>>223989090We’re not blasting gear and looksmaxxing.
>>223987725What should we do about our economic situation?>just be really based and start a revolution!You first.
>>223989366Honestly they seem to think young Boomers and GenX are Millenials. I think they think Millenials are Zoomers. God that's dark.
>>223989366>They universally seem to think "millennials" are their annoying teacher from high school who is in his 50's nowNo one thinks that. Majority of Gen Z is in their late 20s right now. How Zoomers see Millennials is what Millennials exactly are:>fat>bald>neckbeards with pubes on their face to hide how fat they really are>numales>hipsters>r*ddtors>gamers>obsessed about capeshit>vegan>LGBT>pretend to be rebel but suck jewish dick hard>YEAH SCIENCE BITCH cringe morons>turbo atheists or turbo christcucks, nothing inbetween>pudgy faced with big glassesYou can go on. No one actually sees you as an enemy or opponents, we're just disgusted by you and pity you.
>>223987767I know exactly who Zoomers are, cause I'm like three years older than they are. They're the annoying little brothers of the world, to me. They're the people who throw a tantrum whenever I say Sonic 06 isn't a very good game, just because they had it when they were 10.
>>223988618Gen x wrote the articles blaming everything on millenials. They’re not going to write articles about themselves unless it’s saying something good. They also talk a lot of shit about zoomers. The ones at work are constantly going on about how shit the young guys are now. Honestly I think zoomers are alright, at least the ones in my field. They’re quiet but I don’t think that’s a bad thing.
>>223989414So the take away here is you're very ugly and trying to get over on other people on the internet because you can't in real life.
>>223989414>Majority of Gen Z is in their late 20s right now.Yes, but you're still mentally picturing some 40-something guy you hated, when you were in highschool.Whether that's your SJW cunt of a teacher, or Mike Stoklasa. And now you're just describing a very specific genre of man who was probably big into Reddit, in about 2010.It's normal to hate Redditors. Everyone does.
>>223987303We did you revisionist fucks. They were a complete joke.
>>223989414There is a recurring thing with them not understanding what millennials are
>>223989414None of what you just described is related to a specific age group
i was 9 when TPM came out. I loved it and so did most of the boys in my class. we all had the action figures, lightsabers, jar jar binks lollipops
>>223989471I was the perfect age to enjoy TPM and thought it was the shit. We got a bunch of cool toys and the podracing game out of it. Good movie.
>>223989366>The literally don't know who they're talking about because they're chronologically illiterate.Reminds me of how zoomers get their minds blown by historical trivia like the fact that Cleopatra lived closer to the present day than to when the Egyptian Pyramids were built. They lack a proper chronological understanding of anything that happened before they were born.
>>223987303As usualy the braindead zoomers are stealing millennial culture while blaming millennials for shit gen x and boomers did. In this case millennials have always defended the prequels against the shitstorm it received from boomers and especially gen x. Mike Stoklasa, for example, is a gen xer born in 78. Boomers and zoomers are the dumbest generations on the planet right now. Gen X and millennials also have a large amount of idiots but still have more non-retards than boombers/zoomers.
The prequels will be remembered 100 years from now, along with the Clone Wars TV series. It will be considered the epitome of "Star Wars", with the OT only acting as "proto-star wars", and almost everything else seen as false imitations.People in the future will be flabbergasted that these were made pre-AI, in the 2000's and were largely overlooked. "Way before their time" will be a common trope thrown around when people talk about the prequels.They are an example of incredibly novel, sincere and earnest artwork that takes place in a truly bespoke and thick imaginary world. You could even regards the prequels as, yes this is a stretch but as far as application goes 100% accurate, "Outsider art". It broke nearly all conventions, undermined the cultural zeitgeist and existed as a pure machination of 1 auteur.It upsets me greatly that there is almost no one that truly sees these movies for what they are. Even the fan boys are wrong in almost all aspects and variations by which they try to praise these movies.Time will prove me correct. People will echo me.
>>223989566>along with the Clone Wars TV seriesDo you mean Genndy Wars or the shitty orange butt cheeks show.
>>223989544Most of what you said is accurate but>millennials have always defended the prequelsis way off. They were divisive even among millennials
>>223989591The answer is simple. If you hated 1 and liked another, it is the one you hated that is better. This should have been easy to infer from my initial post as i claim almost everyone is wrong.
>>223989616So you're a troll and your entire spiel is meaningless.
>>223987303that's obviously bait. the original star wars films were completely earnest, too. lucas doesn't make ironic winking-at-the-camera stuff.
>>223989626I am correct, and my predictions will show that as the decades pass. The problem is peeling back through peoples preconceived notions and conclusions as to reassess something is next to impossible, let alone online on a anon image board, in an ephemeral thread that won't be here in 24hrs.So i wouldn't bother.My goal is to act as a waypoint of reconsideration so that when people start their own internal reevaluation of the prequels and TCW's they'll have some base points from which to grow new opinions. Ergo, the echo comment.As an exercise, re-watch the season 3 episode, Sphere of Influence. In particular pay attention to the scene and how it builds around the 7 minute mark. Think about what kind of story is being told, how elaborate it is, how sprawling and interconnected - how its themes easily translate to the real world.Another thing to consider, look at every detail, from stools to benches to outfits in the prequels and TCW - it is all entirely new and novel. You'll almost never see anything that links back to our modern times in the prequels/TCW. It is entirely its own world, much like Avatar - but more, as even Avatar has a lot of signally back to "modern world" times as far as the humans go.
>>223988425>Star Wars, Pokemon, anime, etc.we also took social damage by being into those things. zoomers grew up in a time when liking all of that stuff was completely normal.
>>223989421Zoomers are like the perpetual little brothers who seethed when big bro took the Xbox away with him to college and never got over it.
>>223987303the prequels are trash now, were then and always will be. reddit memes dont make them good.
>>223989566this is high quality bait. I respect the craftsmanship.
>>223989798Proving the OP in image real. You can't live in a earnest, sincere world. You have been mind-fucked by irony and meta-humour.
>>223987303The problem with this is that cinema at the time wasn't poisoned with quips and irony to begin with, Millenials fucking hated the prequels because they have bad writing, nonsensical plot structure, and worst of all, they're somehow boring.
>>223989843Can you give me 1 example in the prequels of "nonsensical plot structure"? Or, "bad writing"?
>>223987303Something happened to late Gen X early millennials to make them fear being earnest. My guess is their parents were the most embarrassingly unself aware boomers and tv in their formative years was nothing but sentimental sitcoms. The late Gen X/early millennial took an internal vow of sarcasm never to be as pathetic as their parents or the culture at large and this is where you get your red letter medias or Tim Heideckers. It’s a crippling emotional state, poor Tim can’t even make his earnest indie pop guitar music without singing it like it’s a joke. Same for RLM being unable to earnestly make space cop a comedy, kneecapping their intentionally bad movie by making it even worse for fear someone might think they were trying too hard. Late millennials largely escaped this (apathy, GATE brainwashing?) and enjoyed the prequels and most things in life. Their problems are more of the Reddit chungoid internet addict variety.
>>223989945>Late millennials largely escaped this (apathy, GATE brainwashing?) and enjoyed the prequelsI’m one and this is not accurate
>>223989971Largely
>>223990022Based on what? Because I’m basing it on having experienced it firsthand as a millennial Star Wars fan. These movies were not largely beloved in their time
>>223987303I really find it weird that zoomers will tell you with absolute authority about events and stuff they never personally experienced, while apeing everything about it. I was big in the music scene and was in a fairly popular local band in the “MySpace deathcore” era. There’s a resurgence of that type of deathcore which is cool, but zoomers have told me factually wrong info, or that a “band was hated” then got rediscovered (of course by zoomers). My favorite is they’ll go into details about scene fashion but of course are wrong. I don’t really care that much but they will argue about stuff I’ve lived through. It just seems weird to me. They also have this weird obsession with also shitting on it, and complaining about how sexist the scene was of homophobic it was.
>star wars and generational warfare thread
>>223989783they really are
>>223987303>They were the target demographicMillennial here, can confirm. I'm the staunchest fan of the prequels, always and forevermore.
>>223987303Millennials loved the prequels, they loved battlefront, and bounty hunter. The only people that were butthurt were the Gen Xers upset it was OT SW.
>>223989599Ah yes. The Phantom Menace was very divisive on the 3rd grade playground. There were those kids that were diehard original trilogy fans and those of us that enjoyed the new movie. We used to have battles and throw rocks and mud balls at each other.
>>223987303>Why do Zoomers think Millennials hated the Star Wars prequels?Once again we are a scapegoat for the sin of Gen X losers (RLM). Don't worry about it zoomers we can take it, we took all the blame for everything the Boomers accused us of doing as well we can take your little tantrums too.
The new memes are great
>>223987725>As a Zoomer I view Millenials as pop culture driven, craft beer drinking social justice warriors who spent years crying about racism and trannies while they did nothing about their economic situationSort of. Aside from Operation Wall Street being destroyed by underhanded psyops you eventually realize that the only way to square everything up is kill the Boomers for their crimes. You up for that Zoomie?
>>223988659you loved jar jar binks and you loved wesley crusher, because that's the kind of person you are
Do fans of the prequels basically ignore that roughly 70% of these movies are boring and inconsequential CGI action scenes?
>>223989861Notice how when you call out retards, they never respond. They're just repeating memes they've read - they lack critical thinking.
>>223989861nta, but they just weren't good movies, everyone i knew growing up was raised on vhs copies of star wars and indiana jones, no one liked the star wars prequels. they didn't have any of the grit, heart, or wit that made the first 3 so endearing. the story was all over the place, love story, politics, the little kid self insert, angsty teen, boomer references, cliche 90s "fun" action sequences. in general the cgi was a big point of contention as well, at that time people treated excessive cgi the way they treat AI today. that being said, i don't know anyone that hated them, just no one gave a fuck about them. i didn't know anyone that was hardcore star wars until they turned on the marketing machine 10-15 years ago, now i know several people with star wars tattoos.
>>223989861>Can you give me 1 example in the prequels of "nonsensical plot structure"? Or, "bad writing"?These are bad criticisms of the Prequels anyway if you've seen the behind the scenes. It was the editing that makes the prequels as stilted as they turned out. Georgie boy really needed someone to tell him he's isn't very good at it.
>>223990253Starting the war at the end of the second one and basically ending at the start of the third one was a pretty retarded choice. Apparently the war is explored in some cartoon, but that's basically it. Also, changing the secondary bad guy every single movie was also a bad choice as none of them are interesting or developed in any way. Dooku was by far the best, Grievous was a joke and shouldn't be in the movie.
>>223990245Ok, now pull something from the prequels and put it next to your projections so we can analyze the context.>>223990253Same for you, SHOW examples instead of just projecting your preconceived conclusions
>>223987303they were the most jarring step from miniatures, muppets and practical effects to two actors walk in front of a graphics card demo. zooms grew up with nothing but the latter so they dont understand the hate
>"LISTEN UP TROOPERS, WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE I DELIVERED PIZZAS IN THE SNOW AND MADE ENOUGH TO BUY MY OWN HOUSE DURING SUMMER BREAK. LETS PULL UP THOSE BOOTSTRAPS AND GIVE THEM A FIRM HANDSHAKE"
>>223990312>Same for you, SHOW examples instead of just projecting your preconceived conclusionsAlready said you can go watch his process in the behind the scenes, now get on it.
>>223990310>Starting the war at the end of the second one and basically ending at the start of the third one was a pretty retarded choice. Apparently the war is explored in some cartoon, but that's basically it. Also, changing the secondary bad guy every single movie was also a bad choice as none of them are interesting or developed in any way. Dooku was by far the best, Grievous was a joke and shouldn't be in the movie.The war isn't the point that's the problem, the story you're being told is Darth Sidious's extremely great plan to turn Anakin Skywalker to the dark side and become the senate. The war is part of the plan but isn't really a big deal for the story being told.
Chuds are funny, they are cinematically basically illiterate so they praise some Hollywood slop for children as the peak of the medium. LotR is also a good example.
>>223990333That's a non-related point. We are talking about the quality of the finished product here. Now answer.
>>223990421>That's a non-related point. We are talking about the quality of the finished product here. Now answer.No that is the point go watch the behind the scenes about George's direction and editing, you'll understand why the movie is the way it is, some things must be experienced.
>>223990405It doesn't work because Anakin transformation isn't believable. Maybe they should see him committing some war crimes. He neede the purging of stratholme moment, but that never happened.
>>223990446>It doesn't work because Anakin transformation isn't believable. Maybe they should see him committing some war crimes. He neede the purging of stratholme moment, but that never happened.That's supposed to be him killing the younglings, he can never go back after that, but my point was that seen through the lens of "sheev is succeeding" the story and the way it's told make sense narratively, which it does. That doesn't mean it couldn't be improved in a lot of places but you complained that we didn't really see much of the war itself when the war is just a step in sheev's ultimate victory, that's all I was pointing out.
>>223990312what projections? i simply told you my experience with the movies as a person who watched them when they came out.
>>223990436A deliberately bad decision is still a bad decision.
>>223990316Yeah, shit like this was incredibly jarring at the time
>>223987303Millennial here - because we did hate the prequels, and were right to do so. It's why I always laugh at faggoty, diarrhea colored meme zoomers when they try to insist that prequels were rejected because of some youtuber before youtube existed, or because everyone was old or something. I was in the 5th grade, I was a Star Wars superfan, you couldn't get more target audience than me, and TPM was garbage. There's a reason that you just see zoomfags posting the Darth Maul fight, because that's basically the only good part of the movie. Episode 3 was good, not great, but by that time people were just over it and George had lost his image as a great filmmaker.
>>223987303There are like like four types of millennials, with the ones born at the start and end of the pack being almost indistinguishable from Gen X and Gen Z. Among core millenials there are two groups, largely the ones born in the mid 80's and those born in the early 90s. When you think of avocado toast plaid shirt wearing stomp clap hey hipster start up bullshit in the 2010's, that's all on the mid 80's guys. 90's millennials didn't enter the workforce until maybe 2012, well after the recession raped their chances of home ownership, and it's this group the chudded out, voted for Trump, and is most sympathetic to zoomers.
>>223990523it really was fucked, especially compared to the first 3 movies that felt lived in. this shit looked like an fmv cutscene from a cheap game.
>>223990603>it really was fucked, especially compared to the first 3 movies that felt lived in. >this shit looked like an fmv cutscene from a cheap game.And that's the thing George wanted it to be more of like a classical play than the action adventure of the originals. Why he wanted that to be the case is hard to pin down but for a lot of people it doesn't work well. It's why RotS is often called the "best one" because it's the closest to feeling like the originals due to each specific scene being much more action focused along with a rather relentless pace.
>>223988625No one watches that show.
>>223989043>peptidemaxxAt the Goon Junction?
>>223990221>zoomers relate to AnakinImpossible. Anakin had a waifu and was hyped up to be the Chosen One. Zoomers are afraid of women and nobody thinks they have any potential for greatness.
>>223990436So you cannot use the source art to back up your claims that it is bad? You have to have feelings based on things that are not explicitly the art itself? Weird.
>>223987303Gen Z is too dumb to understand generations. That's all there is to it.
>>223988146I was 2 when TPM came out, jarjar is peak.
>>223991820I was 9 and he was shit
>>223987303Zoomers don't know shit about anything so it's safe to blindly dismiss any of their "opinions".
>cinematic brilliance>shows a bunch of picturesnotice how they never talk about the story or the characters
>>223991854i dismiss every opinion made by those who can't even spell millennial
>>223991858>first one could be from any ps1 era Final Fantasy FMV>second one was always iconic but they're pretending to be the ones who discovered it>third one is shitPretty much sums up their trash perspective.
>>223987725The "you need to go to college" bullshit that directly lead to the brainwashed NPC horde really started at the end of the Millenials gen and was then picked up by zoomers.Pretending that gen z is that based Generation of critical thinkers who can sniff out cringe, delusion and dishonesty from 10 miles away is sadly false.
>>223990221This is the gayest thing I've read today. God dammed do they sound like such incels.
>>223990523There is this one spinning cam shot of a room where you can see part of the painted setpiece being replaced by cgi and "popping into place".The CGI of these movies is really not great most the times and only works in the space battles.
>>223990221This is literally just the mindset of a crybaby.I guess this is the end-result of slave-morality. Just assholes feeling sorry for themselves lashing out at the World.
>>223987303Nobody ever liked that shit except a subsect of 6 yos who then never grow up beyond that mental age.Not much different from snydertards (except the psychopathy)
>>223989118Coffees outta nose kekA poodle maybe?
>>223987303Most of my generation (I'm born 1988) either liked them or thought they were okay. It was the older people who vehemethly hated them like sheeps.
>>223992050>hating the mega blockbuster hit movie makes you a sheep>liking it does notoh okay
>>223989403They literally think that. No they won’t do it either they just complain that millenials didn’t fix everything for them. Most entitled generation.
>>223987303>Why do ZoomersName 10 zoomers.
>>223987725Called it anon. The seething is the stamp.
>>223987303
I will never wrap my head around why Lucas thought it was a good idea to centre the entire first movie on a kid. Also why he for some inexplicable reason chose the child actor with the by far worst line reading performance.
>>223991978>just take it in the ass, goy
There sure are a lot of UGLY, OLD, FAT, BALD, WOKE, ANGRY millennials in this thread.
>>223987303>cinematic brilliancelmaothe real issue is that zoomers despise everything to do with millennials. zoomers will be contrarian to every single millennial opinion no matter what.
>>223989778It depends on when, I'm technically Gen Z despite almost pushing 30 now, and no you were seen as a retard if you were into Pokemon up until I was like 17. Same with anime and shit.
You will try.
>>223992821>all the twirlingis that really necessary?
>>223990221I like Anakin because he knows that the dogma of Democracy is a load of shit.
>>223990221>we don't glorify Anakin, we relate to him and his story as a cautionary tale of someone who responds to crisis by blaming everyone else, fumbling his GF, and shooting up his school>but also, our relating to him is culture's fault, not oursBeyond parody
>>223989783This really sums it up. And they always talk about us never growing up. Bro you’re almost 30.
>>2239873033 is ironically kino, and 1 and 2 are poster children for how not to write a fantasy universe unless you're trying to put thw audience to sleep. Endless lore dumps =/= earnest storytelling, shut the fuck upt. zoom zoom
>>223992465imagine looking like a bigger manchild even when sat next to doug, jesus fucking christ, star wars nerds are something else.
>>223992827... if you have a fight to the death and have the rizz to pull it off in a cool way, why not man? These are Jedi at their peak, they fuck hard
>>223992772t. Zoomer
>>223992992almost 30, and will unironically tell you the Bionicles Movie is a masterpiece.
>>223987303Star Wars has always been lame nerd shit. They were kids films that Gen X saw in their formative years. Like Harry Potter was for millennials
>>223992772I am bald, and BEAUTIFUL, I'll have you know.
>muh generation gap divisional bullshitFuck off with that communist trash...
>>223993653They're significantly better movies than the Harry Potter movies.Harry Potter is just non-stop wish fulfillment for kids who want to have all of the money in the world and eat magic chocolate, which then takes a hard swerve into being about the holocaust at like the last second, because Rowling became insecure about what she was writing. Harry Potter has a cast of like 30 characters, with about four of them being relevant to any part of the plot.
>>223989366I'm a zoomer and the mental image of millenials I have is the kinda people who wore skinny jeans and flannel, drank craft beer and listened to stomp-clap-hey music
>>223987303It came out when we were little kids and we loved it but as we grew older it became cool to hate itSo we did both
>>223989449Correct post. Gen x shit on zoomers, most us millenials feel sympathetic to the bullshit they have inherited like we did ourselves
>>223987303There wasn’t any of that in the OT and those are universally beloved movies… for Star Wars fans anyway.They hated the prequels for confusing the straightforward plot of the original and tying too many random elements together. Like the clone wars just being Jedi vs a gorillion boba fetts. It makes the universe much smaller. Also while the cinematography is good it does overuse cgi and the dialog is not as effective because everyone is just catering to George in the prequel era
I dont like the bitter generation wars. That said, I've always liked the prequels for their creative ambition.>t. 1997 ZILLENIAL
>it's another boomer attempt to get millennials and zoomers hating each other so that we don't unite over how badly boomers have fucked over the entire planet episodegetting real tired of these repeats
>>223987705Mid ass woman. Bro could do such much better with that physiq
>>223990221oof, you've really upset (((them))) with this one
>>223994284do you browse /fit/?
>>223994040Probably why jews are so pissed and doing the generation divide stuff. They just can’t stand seeing people get along.
>twittertard with blue checkmark>obvious cinematic brillianceCommunity notes: This user is in India.Also, why the fuck did you make a thread about this?
>>223988625Because twisted metal sucks.
>>223990221How is this different from those putin= voldamort zelensky= the resistance posts on twitter?
>>223994480Fuck you Twisted Metal is awesome
>>223989089The oldest Zoomers are just turning 30 now anon, it was Gen X that hated the prequels
Stop talking about "generations" that isn't how things are. Once you turn 18 you become the same age as everyone else.
>>223989414You can't include normies, every generation is completely fucking retarded, if you do that.
>>223987303Watch the Plinkett reviews.
>>223990523wtf those shadows are completely wrong
>>223993886>drank craft beer and listened to stomp-clap-hey musicwhich is funny because in reality the only place you ran into this shit was gourmet burger shops and the occasional mega hit you would hear on the radioactual millennial music was garbage like Katy Perry and Taylor Swift, stuff zoomers and now alphas are still listening to
>>223989414All those things you described apply to zoomers more than millennials. Especially the whining about LGBT and numales. GenZ is the gayest generation yet.
>>223992431Jacob Elordi
>>223994372Of course I do, I talk to TV posters. So I understand talking to sexless virgins.
>>223994572No no no this can’t be right I’m still young dangit I’m not an unc noooo!
>>223994575No, we can do that and every zoomer is clavicular btw we're all chads every single one of us.
>>223994747i bet your grindr account is so successful..
>>223994688There is nothing inherently wrong with craft beer. These same faggots say goyslop while drinking bud lite. ipas are for faggots but that is not all craft beer. Just a huge portion of it because of normies, which ties in to this post >>223994575 but anyway it's better bait because it's a just little wrong, it got me to post.
>>223994284he really couldn't, women don't like physiques that scream steroids
>>223994917>ipas are for faggots but that is not all craft beerWhy do the söyim fear the humble ipa so much?
>>223987303What the fuck is this godawful opinion? Gen Y is the strongest defender generation of the Prequels. Fucking zoomers man.
>>223995178It's not humble.
>>223995197No, zoomers are the prequel apologists. Millennials had the good sense to know they were shit.
>>223987652>>223987696The big thing is that Millenials as a generation are basically either late 80’s/early 90’s kids or mid 90’s-early 2000’s kids. This makes a huge difference, the example I go to is a 18 year old and an 8 year old in ‘99 were both Millennials. Their thoughts on pop culture would’ve been totally different, one was probably obsessed with Pokémon and the other thought it was gay. One was into PC games and mature PlayStation games and the other was into N64 and PS1 mascot games. One was reading Harry Potter and the other getting college textbooks.
>>223988635Lmao, zoomers are proof they aren’t. You can tell a lot of Gen X traits were passed to Z.
>>223995324Early millennials grew up on Ren and Stimpy and TMNT. Late millennials grew up on Spongebob, Fairly OddParents, Jimmy Neutron, Billy & Mandy, Ed Edd n Eddy, etc.
>>223995347must've been a middle millennial then because i grew up watching both sides of your divide
>>223988146If you saw the remastered Star Wars at 12, then you saw the Phantom Menace at 14 with a perspective on Star Wars that had shifted very little, if at all, during the two intervening years. I'm speaking from my own experience here. The 1997 Special Edition VHS was vital in creating excitement for the prequels in my generation. The Special Edition was the date-rape drug that clouded our senses and made us susceptible to the advances of the Phantom Menace. Drowsy with hype, we didn't even notice as Jar Jar had his way with us in the theatre. It was only years after the event that we found the courage to talk about the trauma, process it together in online spaces, and begin healing.
>>223994284>Mid ass woman>MId ass-woman
>>223987303Zoomers are infinitely more irony-poisoned than any generation before them.
>>223995917You're safe here.
>>223987633my boomer parents still watch every shitty tv show they crap out
>>223987725Zoomers appreciate the prequels more because they already exist in a broken society and everything else is shit. The prequels always had some good things going for them but they seem even better in hindsight compared to the garbage coming out today. It's not even specifically nostalgia goggles. The problem is in 1999 The Phantom Menace felt like a Saturday morning cartoon compared to all the edgy expanded universe stuff going on. Star Wars media was going hard in the late 90s. Zoomers wouldn't understand. Millennials never get credit for over a decade of zogbotting in GWOT. It was our vietnam and vietnam era boomers don't even acknowledge it. Most of the Millennials I know born in the early 80s are kind of based. 80s millennials always get lumped in with 90s millennials, which is really an entirely different generation. The ones born in the 90s are the shitty ones who were on tumblr and livejournal getting infected by the woke mind virus by Gen X professors. Gen X always manages to shift all blame for marxist nonsense onto everyone else. Even a lot of the hipster BS was overlap from Gen X influence.

Gen Z's 1995-2009.
>>223987303You do know these generational terms are completely made up bullshit that hold no weight.
>>223998329It's 1996-2012. 1995 are millennials. 1996 are Skibidi Toilet zoomers.
I was a little kid who stood in line for hours with all my friends to watch episode 1 and every single one of us thought it was DOGSHIT
>>223998536except they were invented by advertisers and those people don't spend time on things that don't make money
>>223999695>It's 1996-2012That was before Gen Alpha became a thing. It was changed to 95-09 to account for them.
>we spent the last 2 decades shitting on millenials>lets psyop the zoomers and gen A so they start doing the samewhen will it stop? why do boomers hate my generation so much?
>>223987725thats accurate for about 2% of western millenials
>>223989414zoomers trying to pin the SJW shit on millenials will always be funny
>>223992806I'm a Zillenial (1996). Pokémon was definitely not popular during the time I got into it (2003), most kids had already moved onto Yu-Gi-Oh! at that point. Honestly i'd argue that Pokemon as a whole didn't really start getting popular again until the end of the decade. I remember HGSS being a huge re-entry point for older fans.
>>2240024301994 here, been playing since Gen1 and was caught up during OG PokeMania, HGSS was huge but nobody my age then would've been caught playing Pokemon then. It really wasn't until Gen 6 and GO that Pokemon became okay to like publicly again.Oh, and any zoomer that likes to pretend Gen 5 was a good time for Pokemon at that point is delusional.
>>223987705Every zoomer girl I run into says age gaps are weird, yet go on about how many guys they fucked over the weekend. WTF is going on?
>>223987303>see Phantom Menace in theaters when I was 9>thought it kicked ass>get the Podracing game the same year>thought it kicked assrevisionist history won't change my mind
>>224000435Boomers have a special hatred for Millennials because they were the official "we're old now" generation.They could kind of ignore Gen X, because there weren't that many of them around, and they could kind of squint and pretend they were little Boomers.>Hey, that Kurt Cobain guy is kinda like Jimmy Page. We're not so different, you and I!Then their little Millennial kids started growing up, and talking about "Pokeyman" and "tweets" and shit, and they've been seething ever since.
Nobody liked them. The hype was so ridiculous. LucasFilms servers shat the bed because so many people were downloading the trailer. And there were fucking bootleg trailers before that came out. Everybody I know was disappointed when they eventually went to the cinema.
>>224002973to be fair, that game did kick ass and podracing looks cool as shit even now. That's one of the few things in Episode I that's aged well.
>>224002973I was 7 and I thought the film sucked ass, but I liked the game. There was only one kid in my school that actually liked the prequels, and he was a fucking weirdo.
>>223987303Elder Millennial here. The prequels fucking suck. Revenge of the Sith sucked less than the others, but Attack of the Clones was the worst Star Wars movie until Rise of Skywalker.I'm willing to grant that there are good things about the prequels, namely how they show the fall of both the Jedi and the Galactic Republic from within and how fascists stoke fear into the hearts of the insecure to make them loyal to the fascists. But for the most part, the prequels - especially AOTC - are bad films from a storytelling perspective. Consider Phantom Menace: We're told the people of Naboo are suffering at the hands of the Trade Federation and its droid army, but we're never actually shown this suffering. We're shown two cities, one of which barely looks like it's been attacked at all despite being occupied and one of which is underwater and thus spared the droid army's attacks. We're told we should care, but we're never shown why we should care.Anyone who thinks the prequels are well-constructed movies are stupid. That Lucas's sincerity is palpable doesn't mean he wrote good dialogue or plotted the movies well. They're bad movies with the dirt-worst dialogue in the franchise (even above the sequel trilogy) and anyone who thinks these movies were hated back in the day for being "sincere" is an idiot. I like sincerity in my storytelling - but I like good storytelling, too, and the prequels ain't it.
>>224002973I have a feeling you haven't rewatched it since thenYour impression is based on certain scenes you remember as a kid, like the race and probably the Darth Maul fightthe entire movie, as a whole, is shit
>>223987303Gen X'ers hated the prequels because it shat on their childhood memories of Ewoks and Bloop Shitto. Millennials were children when the prequels came out and mostly liked them because laser swords and spaceships. Also podracing was fuckin sweet.
RIP to a real one
>>224000435Boomers hate their children because we made them grow up a bit and take on some responsibility when they just wanted to sit around smoking weed and fucking each other's wives
>>223990761>show
>never watched the Star Wars series in full until a few years ago>get to the prequels>I and II are boring, III is actually decentI don't get it. I remember so many people destroying these films like they were the worst things to ever exist and I spent most of them just being bored. They weren't good but they weren't so bad it's fun like a trainwreck either. Gen X'ers lied to me. I expected some bullshit and got steaming mediocrity with a bit of almost-kino at the end.
>>224003360now the sequel trilogy, that's a real steaming pile of horse shit
>>224003360I dunno if anyone thinks they are so bad they're fun, most people find them dull as fuck, as you did.
>>223987303Zoomers very consistently mistake Gen X for millennials.In this. And with Joss Whedon and Marvel snark. All Gen X.Millennials are things like scene and warped tour and breaking bad and frozen.They’re off by like ten years.
>>224003787Frozen was a zoomer movie.
>>224003646Yeah, pretty much. I say AOTC is the worst of the prequel trilogy, and that's because there's far less to redeem it than there is in the other two prequels. It's also got the worst dialogue and arguably the worst action scenes of the prequels. But it's still a watchable film for the most part. It's just duller than dishwater.Compare that to Rise of Skywalker, where almost every decision from start to finish is so incomprehensibly bad that you wonder why the fuck Disney even released the film at all. Literally the only sincerely cool moment of that film was the lightsaber pass-off between Rey and Kylo at the end, and FIVE SECONDS is not enough to save a whole film full of shitty decisions made to spite both the film before it and the fans who bitched at length about that prior film.
>>223987652I know for certain that the vast majority of millennials are spiritually gay or actually gay and that’s an undisputed fact.The uncs who raised me on the ‘chan are cool tho. Exception to the rule, but it’s always the based few from the prior generation that sets the tone for the next.
>>223987303Millennial here, the first one was okay, not good, just okay.The other two suck ass.As for your question, if you weren't so busy sucking dicks you would know that the only way zoomers have to know the general audience reception of any piece of media is by reading old magazine/tv critics and old internet forums about said media, and the vast majority of those do not see the prequels in good light. TL; DR stop sucking dicks.
>>223987303They've grown on me considerably. Talk about not knowing what you had until you get served a shittier version.
>>223987303i saw episode one opening night and people did NOT like it
>>224003360and then they mirrored it with the sequels
>>223987303nah they didn'tI'm a 1996 zillennial and older millennials hated them for years
>>223987303>Why do Zoomers think Millennials hated the Star Wars prequelsZooms are stupid as all fuck they probably think millennials were old in the 90s and not children.
>>223987303>Millennials hated the Star Wars prequels?Yes, I did, and still do
>>223987303jarjar was retarded but making him a sith would have made it worth it
>>223987303>Making your whole personality revolve around the generation you were born into.
>>224004005>Millennial here, the first one was okay, not good, just okay.I was 10 when I saw ep 1 in theater and I was hooked after that. Before I saw ep 1 I thought star wars was old people bullshit. Ep 1 is still my favorite one Gen X geeks still seething
>>223990231>>223990318I will not stand for this Ki-Adi boomer revisionism. He stood his own against prime Grievous and in this house he's a goddamn hero.
All this tells me is the people who made hating the Prequels their identity haven't learned not to take the bait
Basically every generation agrees that millenials are the worst. Obese, bald fags that obsessively consume Star Wars, capeshit, video games and surface level "muh science" while the world goes to shit around them. The fact that they worship disgusting fat slobs like Joss Whedon says all you need to know about the entire generation.
>>223987303the original trilogy didn’t have that, so what in the fuck is that gay retard smoking? Other than his dogs cock. Also, yes, everyone I knew growing up, absolutely fucking hated these movies. Learning years later that the five year olds that saw it, never grew up, and are still trying to live off of their childhood nostalgia was laughably pathetic. It’s like someone being really into Sesame Street, or, My Little Ponies as an adult, truly fucking pathetic creatures.
>>223988331>The uprising of sjws was brought on by the oldest zoomers you dumb faggot. By 2015 all the millineals were already off of college campus and in the work forceI was in my last year of high school in 2015, so no, sjw bullshit was spearheaded by millennials.t. oldest zoomer
>>223987303Zoomer think Gen X are millennials It is why they keep complaining about “millennial writing” even though it is all Gen X.Gen X are legit so lucky. They flew under the radar and now Zoomers think they are Millennials.
>>224006798>unironically thinking that being bald and obese is a generational thingI'm not sure you understand how human biology works.Plus, Millennials were the ones who popularized being a health nut. They're actually less likely to smoke and eat like shit than zoomers are.
>>224006937>sjw bullshit was spearheaded by millennialsGen X'ers were pulling this shit in the 80's and 90s, they pioneered most of the shit we complain about today along with the boomers before them.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TU3Iqz-pHI0
>>223989301Yes, but millennials would not have been a significant portion, t least at the time.
>>224006937SJW bullshit was glowwies deciding they had to break up all of that class solidarity that was forming around the 08 economic crisis. I mean, they've always been there, but they used to be crazy people shouting into a void, and you used to be allowed to make fun of them. South Park had the whole Museum of Tolerance bit, and jokes about sex changes.At some point the orders came in from above that we are not only not silencing these people anymore, but they were going to be handed every megaphone.
>>224006798All those vaxxes at such a young age basically one shot your little hearts. Good luck. Also I never vaxxed lol
>>224006798Gen Xer with a lack of self-awareness spotted
>>224006810By that analogy it means you're a neckbeard continuously seething about Sesame Street
>>224006993>>224007082>>224007099kek. Go back to playing Mario Kart and watching Twitch streamers you fat homos.
>>223987303If people loved the prequels they wouldn't have been shelved and had to have been rehabilitated with a long running and beloved cartoon series, you stupid fucking niggerThey would have kept making more moviesThe prequel movies killed all mainstream public interest in the franchise, they were that fucking bad, kill yourself you boring subhuman faggot nigger troll
>>223992517Lucas sees Star Wars as movies for twelve-year-old boys (which they are). The problem is that kids don’t actually like seeing kid characters in movies. Kids usually would rather see grown-ups doing cool stuff in novies because kids naturally look up to and try to emulate adults. It’s like how most little kids will say their favorite character from the original Star Wars movie is Obi-Wan Kenobi rather than Luke Skywalker or Princess Leia because kids always love kindly old grandfather characters.
>>223987303Millennials didn´t hate the prequels. That´s false. The prequels always felt like more SW that was not quite as good as the OT. Sure enough a lot about them was not as appreciated as it should have been but standards were different then, that level of storytelling was expected.
>>223989421zoomers love heroes and unleashed
>>224007146Nothing wrong with doing either of those things.
>>223989783A lot of them grew up watching millennial YouTubers and engaging with online millennial culture, so there is definitely a big sibling/younger sibling thing going on. It's funny to see the millennial shitting going on on here of all places, since I doubt the average oldfag who still comes to 4chan bears any resemblance to the circa-2010 hipster or whiteknighting seething sőyboy varieties of millennials
>>224007265yeah, those kind of suck too. And the Adventure games are borderline shitty, even if I do like them.Outside of the 90's, Sonic only really survived on handhelds, and then briefly again in the 2010's.
>>223990221I'm a late millennial ROTS and Anakin lover and it's pretty much that.Anakin is more relatable if you're actually gifted but were never given real opportunity to exercise that.
>>223992806Pokemon was exclusively marketed to kids until Pokemon GO became a fad in 2016. It was at that point the Japs realized that there was actually a sizable adult fanbase who were willing to spend big money on collectibles rather than just parents buying toys and cards for their young kids. A large number of zoomers who are like 22-24 years old today never really experienced a time when you were seen as an autistic retard by normalfags for liking Pokemon after middle school.
>>223987303>cinematic brilliance,
>>224007302No one here ever did. They weren't the 4chan crowd. 4chan was always a mixture of Comic Book Guys, chronic masturbators, and would-be Elliot Rogers.
>>223987303I liked them. I watched every one in the theater. I can't think of many other trilogies that I did that with. Maul, Jango, Grievous, Jar Jar. All kino
>>223998329>>223999695class of 2014: millennialclass of 2015: zoomer
>>223988970Lucas only made the prequels because he got the toy rights back from kenner
>>224007338sa2b is the best sonic platforming game of all time
>>223993063>>223993094I was a huge Star Wars nerd back in high school and would often watch all six movies back to back. Yes TPM and AOTC can be hard to watch, but people need to admit that ROTJ actually isn’t much better.
>>223988618GenX are basically boomers that didn't get served the world on a platter. They have about the same levels of chronic lead poisoning.
>>224007476It's a platformer that plays so jerkily, they gave up and let you lock-on to targets. 3D Sonic has always been more or less incompetently designed.
>>223987767No way. Zoomers are faggots and cucks, alpha is kind of based and have on multiple occasions have randomly mentioned to me how much they dislike nogs, fags, and trannies. They better not just be giving me false hope for the future.
>>224007445He always intended to tell Anakin's actual story.
>>22399365390% of Harry Potter fans were girls back in the day. Millennial boys always cared more about Star Wars.
>>224006942>they keep complaining about “millennial writing” even though it is all Gen X.the funniest part is that the guy responsible for popularizing it, joss wedon, was born in 1964, which technically doesn't even make him gen x. he's a baby boomer.
>>224007531lock-on is modern game design for all sorts of 6th gen games, from action to fighting to shooting to even sports gamesdon't be ridiculous
>>223993886Those hipster people were the millennial version of today’s transtrenders.
>>2240075621960 born onward are Gen Xers, in my viewimagine thinking Obama is a baby boomer
>>223994537Yeah I mistyped “xoomer” as “zoomer.” Xoomers are the parents of zoomers.
The lightsaber fights were cool but everyone knew 1 and 2 were shitty movies even children. 3 was pretty good though
>>223995222So what you mean to say is that the weak should fear the strong? That is the law of the wilderness.
>>224007570Other platformers didn't automate the jumping for you.
>>224007542He can say whatever he wants but thats definitely not true.
>>224007696I'm starting to think 3 is the weakest one. It's just non-stop action. It doesn't have the good slow moments, or the quirky silly characters. There's no man trying to sell Obi-Wan death sticks.
>>224003787Joss Whedon is actually a boomer lol
>>223996737>The prequels always had some good things going for them but they seem even better in hindsight compared to the garbage coming out today.This. Remember, the Phantom Menace came out at the same time as The Matrix, which made for a really bad comparison.
>>224007590Obama is the living embodiment of boomerism.
>>224006798>capeshit, video games and surface level "muh science"Zoomers are the only people still watching capeshit, ruined vidya by turning everything into a live-service Fortnite clone, and unironically believe in pop psychology memes like how the human brain doesn’t fully develop from an innocent childlike state until the magical age of 25.
>>223987303I was ten when PM came out. I didn't like it. I didn't like Jar Jar, I didn't like Anakin or his actor, I didn't like how the ending was spread out between characters i didn't care for, I didn't like how Darth Maul was a mute with no personality, and I didn't care for the trade disputes when neither side was fleshed out and it was just "oriental aliens are le evil fascist arm with robots" It just didn't have the same impact of Darth Vader destroying a planet with the Death Star in A New Hope. It just felt too shallow of an antagonist outside of Palpatine.Anyways, had George just had people to tard wrangle him much like he had for the first two movies in the trilogy, these ideas could've worked. And obviously spin off media SHOWS that they could.
>>224007590Obongo would’ve never been elected if boomers didn’t see him as one of their own. Our past five presidents have all been boomers for a reason.

>>223987303>Why do Zoomers think Millennials hated the Star Wars prequels?What the fuck is the world is this historical revisionism
>>224008014>ruined vidya by turning everything into a live-service Fortnite clonethat was gaben, nasu, EA, and all the retarded Gen Xs and Millennials who happily threw money at themzoomers only continues what we popularized
>>223987303>cinematic brillianceYou know, it's fine to say "Despite what some may think of them, I like the prequels" But just because the sequels exists, doesn't make these films "brilliant" Come the fuck on.
>>223988331> no it’s Gen X>no it’s older zoomers > no it’s boomers Quit playing the blame game
>>224008254Around 2014 the vidya industry was trying to put lootbox gambling mechanics into games like COD and Star Wars Battlefront until they got their pee-pees smacked by government regulators. This was largely due to complaints by millennials. The vidya industry then pivoted to different predatory microtransactions like battle passes and limited-time cosmetics bundles because Fortnite was using those to make bank off zoomers. Now the vidya industry primarily caters to whales just like the gambling industry, which itself has transitioned to sports betting mobile apps as yet another way to separate zoomers from their money.
>>223987303Zoomers are made millenials grew up with the prequels and LOTR while they got the woke 10s, the sequels and Zendayacore.They lash out by trying to usurp millenial culture even most were barely babies when those things came out, and deliberately confuse millenials with GenXers so they can justify their hatred.Besides experiencing superior culture during childhood and adolescence, millenials are now also dating zoomer girls which further increases their hatred for the gen
>>224007562Take some responsibility once in your life motherfucker
>>224008590Older I get, the more I just prefer rereading the LOTR books. Just too much was cleaved out and focused too heavily on action.
>>224008590Don't you dare mention the prequels in the same sentence as the LotR movies.
>>224007562It doesn't really matter when Whedon was born because he's only revered by gen x and millenials. Baby boomers, zoomers and alphas all agree he's a retarded fat homo that should be unemployed. Adults that consume capeshit and/or video games should be shunned.
