I hate theStar Warsprequels, I love the Star Wars prequels.
There are a lot of fans who share that sentiment, even if they dont realise it.
The movies are dreck, but the worldbuilding around them is brilliant.
The Sequel Trilogy Feels Empty
Picking apart all of the problems with the sequel trilogy is tired.
Theres no point digging up old arguments and prodding at old wounds.
Its a bad trilogy, but so were George Lucas prequels.
That didnt stop him, and LucasFilm, from digging deeper to find potential buried below the surface.
Disney needs to give the sequel era that chance.
Right now, it feels empty.
The world is a facsimile of the original trilogy, ripped apart and pieced back together again.
The prequels are so fondly remembered now because they allowed for us to see through their eyes.
Disney hasn’t done that yet.
It was about emotion, capturing the feeling of those on the frontlines.
We cared about and related to that era more because stories like Republic Commando immersed us in it.
Forget cameos and explaining every throwaway line, tell stories that mean something, stories that resonate.
Republic Commando worked so well because it was simple: what were The Clone Wars like for the Clones?
