Mine is they shouldn't have made the sequel series without George as a consultant.

they shouldn't have made the sequel series without George as a consultant.

That is a lukewarm take at best.

My lukewarm take is that the original Star Wars should have been a one and done movie. Perhaps, a longer movie with some elements from Empire Strikes Back to wrap some storylines, but not more.

I never found the original trilogy to be that great or influential as it is made out to be. In my opinion, it does not fully deserve the level of reverence and importance it receives.

Star Wars is a story about toxic masculinity ending up galactically consequential

I'm kind of curious about this take. What do you mean?

They should have it directed by Guillermo del Toro.

[–] HelixDab2@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

Should have had them directed by Quentin Tarantino.

Magic has no place in science fiction.
