All of the more recent Star Wars slop has made me realize that the original films aren't really that good either.
Bite your tongue. Like a lot of things from the past, they need to be viewed in context
I mean they are objectively poor in a lot of ways, but you're spot on. At the time they were fricking mind blowing. Space opera/space cowboys on the big screen! Before that we had what? 2001 and star trek?
Yeah any decent sci-fi before Star Wars was heady with little action. Logans Run, Silent Running. Also in my mind I saw sequels in general change from shameless cash grab to better attempts
I keep getting people telling me they won't watch Andor because of the other slop and it makes me sad
thats me rn
Do watch Andor. It’s not just good Star Wars, it's ‘good TV’ in general. And I say that as someone who hates modern Star Wars with a passion. Andor’s excellent.
