Has there been a vibe shift on reddit regarding the Star Wars Sequels?
After years of relentless hate, I'm suddenly seeing loads of positivity about them.

I’m seeing ads for it constantly and I’m wondering if anyone actually enjoys playing it.
Anything can be improved with a long-running tv series made years after the fact which is deliberately trying to rehabilitate the movies they’re set between.
When talking about the prequels and how they stand up as movies, the only things that are relevant are the movies themselves.
People are right, it is a shame.
But at the same time, I do like the scenes that can only exist if initially they’re apart— Han’s death,Rey finally finding Luke at the end of VII, Luke and Leia’s reunion on Crait. If I was rewriting those movies, I think I’d probably keep those scenes, they’re strong and work emotionally.
Those are some of my favourite scenes in those movies, and I don’t think a more upbeat scene of them all reunited would necessarily be better.
I don’t know, I’m of two minds about it.
How relevant.
Saw the movie yesterday, loved it. Definitely gonna see it again, maybe even a third time. Easily top three Nolan movies. Seeing a movie which makes you remember why you love cinema is such a pure and good experience.
But on top of that, the bacon on the mac and cheese— has been the right-wing coping and seething over the movies both critical and commercial success. It’s so exquisite.
In the face of everyone who said this movie would bomb: Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
It gives the potential for years of movies, various iterations of the X-Men Team, and a wider variety of stories that can be adapted.
LeeAnn Kreischer man, patience of a saint.
This was a low point in history.
I don’t even mean this in a right-wing way, but RTD being so blasé about totally erasing part of the identity of a classic villain should have been a warning sign.
Given we got Broly in canon decades after he was introduced as a movie-only character and expanded into a much more interesting version, if they did the same with Turles and confirmed that he was another son of Bardock— would you be excited or annoyed?
Obviously that’s not unusual for their family, and presuming the union would lead to children— he’d suddenly have potentially many sons and daughters he could offer to betroth to people who could give you an army or armies.
It really does highlight how colossally stupid Viserys was that he had two assets— his own youth, and a controllable young Targaryen Princess for a sister, and he managed to waste both. If he’d married Daenerys, waited a few years his position would have been so much stronger.
If the point is that they’re supposed to act like pricks and not drop that act— why were so many fans excited to have them on the pod?
Cos when I read comments on the announcement loads of people (presumably wrestling fans) were excited about them being guests on the pod. I hadn’t heard of them but assumed they must be likeable characters.
But if you’re a wrestling fan, and you know they play these thin as a cigarette paper bad guy “heel” characters— why would you be excited to hear them interviewed on the pod, surely you’d know that won’t be a good interview? Or were fans who were aware of them thinking they wouldn’t be in-character?
