Maybe he hit quote but meant to hit edit. It's happened to me before. I catch it, but it could conceivably be missed.
Now liking your own posts, that's rock bottom.

I liked the Last Jedi but they could have done things different to make it better. Get rid of Rose, she's another annoying pointless character that's added to the pile. Casino was stupid. Phasma's brief appearance just to die was lame. Admiral whats her name sacrificing herself instead of Leia was dumb. They could have worked their computer generated wonders to have her do the sacrifice. That's what she would have done plus it would be the end of her character who went out in a blaze of glory, like she deserves. But no Leia is alive and they'll have to explain this in the next movie

They done a good job with that so far.

This movie is such a disaster that even obvious things like this were too logical and/or sensible for the "filmmakers" In fairness I think they had plans for Leia in the next film, and her actress just happened to suddenly die post production. No reason it couldn't have been an established character people actually liked (Ackbar) instead of some nameless tumblrina self insert, though. Of course, the problems with that move breaking the lore of SW fleet battles is the far bigger issue than any of the characters, IMO. Why build insanely expensive, technologically advanced capital ships when you can simply fit a garbage scow with a cheap hyperdrive and rudimentary guidance system, then kill entire fleets of said capital ships with it? Congratulations, all your movie battles are now dumb and your universe makes no sense.

Should have brought a Hyperspace Interdictor. It's what you do when you crush inferior force. But I don't think Rain Johnson even knows what that is.

Then how come whenever I give my rankings of the best Star Wars movies, Empire Strikes Back is number one, while Force Awakens lies at number 2 and Last Jedi is number 6? Regardless, I wouldn't call myself a fanboy. While the new movies definitely have good things in them (in my opinion), there's no way I would consider them superior to the original Star Wars movie. I always look forward to the next Star Wars movie because I like to see what new ideas they can come up with (whether they work or not is up to debate). Superior? No but just as good imo.

On the one hand it is hard for me to divide and subdivide Star Wars into its constituent parts like that, I TRY to treat them all as one continuos entity as part of the same franchise. Some installments of said franchise, books,movies, tv, games have left a lot to be desired while others have been truly stellar.
On the other hand its hard not to divide them sometimes because of the incessent need of fandoms in general to apparently do that. But no, I don't dislike...say Attack of the Clones...because its a prequel. I have issues with Attack of the Clones as a movie.

But no, I don't dislike...say Attack of the Clones...because its a prequel. I have issues with Attack of the Clones as a movie. My general ranking of Star Wars films goes like this: 1. Empire Strikes Back 2. The Force Awakens 3. A New Hope 4. Solo: A Star Wars Story 5. Return of the Jedi 6. The Last Jedi 7. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story 8. Phantom Menace 9. Revenge of the Sith 10. Attack of the Clones I general try to base my favorite Star Wars films and products based on both it's quality and how memorable or generally enjoyable it is. The Phantom Menace (usually considered the worst by fans) I actually like better than Attack of the Clones because a.) it was my first Star Wars film so I'm a bit nostalgic and b.) because Phantom Menace at least had the more straight forward story and better adventure like feel. I also try to keep up on some Star Wars Extended Universe, but I never really go out of my way to read all the books, play all the games, or watch all the TV shows (actually I have been a loyal watcher of Clone Wars and Rebels and I might with Resistance) unless it interests me. Otherwise, I may just do a quick look up in the wiki for the summary. And yes, I do think the idea of completely disregarding the entire old EU was a dumb idea (seriously, I have to live in a world where Darth Revan, Bastilla Shan, and HK-47 don't exist anymore). Personally if I were an executive at Lucasfilm Story Group back when Disney just got Lucasfilm and have started pre-production of The Force Awakens, I would have adjusted the decision so that the only EU content scrapped are a.) the stuff after Return of the Jedi, giving filmmakers more creative freedom for their own takes on sequels and b.) whatever was not licensed by or made in partnership with Lucasfilm or Lucas Arts

Bob Iger (CEO of Disney) recently said in a statement that they are going to be slowing down the release of Star Wars films (not going Year by year anymore). This I think is a very smart decision. Unlike Marvel movies where each movie can technically be part of different franchises different enough to provide some variety, Star Wars is just one franchise. Even if the next movie is not a main Star Wars entry, it is still unmistakably Star Wars, with the same machines, same style of music, same type of story telling, a bunch of samey stuff. This creates fatigue really fast, so Disney and Lucasfilm need to give audiences a break between movies. Plus, with a volatile fanbase like Star Wars, a year long gap might be enough for the negativity in some projects to simmer down and more people could consider seeing the next movie.

I think I shall. 1. Return of the Jedi. 2. The Force Awakens. 3. The Last Jedi. 4. Revenge of the Sith. 5. Empire Strikes Back. 6. Rogue One. 7. A New Hope. 8. Phantom Menace 9. Attack of the Clones. And honestly it is pretty close between Sith/ Jedi and Empire/ Rogue One. Either of those movies could probably swap on the list fairly easily in the future on rewatches. As far as the EU is concerned. A. those characters still exist and are perfectly able to be enjoyed. And B. While doing what you suggest is perfectly valid I do support how Disney is going about it, they are recanonizing a lot of stuff and also adding their new spin on stuff too. (Thrawn), and while KOTOR specifically hasn't been added yet they have mentioned a lot of the events around Revan's rein in the new canon so they basically are canon.
