Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (2015)
Been waiting to say this for a long time... THE PREQUELS WERE WAY BETTER!!!!
If you liked any of the previous Star Wars movies, then get ready for the Harry Potter villain's lovechild with President Snow to poop on them. I knew that Han Solo would die, Harrison Ford wanted his character killed off in the first movie, and the second, and the third; and I knew that Disney would take liberties with characters from the books (since they haven't had an original thought since Mickey Mouse), and there is nothing that could make me happier than to see all the prequel haters get their comeuppance. I know, I know, you'll all say, "Hey, I liked it!!!" No. No you didn't. You can lie temporarily, but in the end, no matter how much money this makes, this is the worst attempt at a Star Wars movie and I love it. This is an insult - Like if Iron Man III threw up the deleted scenes that weren't good enough for freaking' Iron Man III and J.J. scraped them up in a strange, tearful Jos Whedon-esque wannabe student film and slathered them with Millennium Falcon. Although, it had great special effects, Princess Leia and Luke Skywalker weren't fat, but no CGI could get Han and Chewie to be any less 70. Han's Kessel run would take a lot of parsecs these days. Good thing the smugglers are still megalomaniacs and really need to discuss things before being foiled by sticky ball monsters (WTF?) and storm troopers still can't shoot or I would still have 2 hours left on my life to think, "hey, I like Star Wars and I'm excited to see this movie!"
And I do. Any Star Wars movie is sacred to me. And the movie is good, it is not not as good as any of the others, but it continues the story and I'm thankful to the overlords for the scraps. And maybe the people that still keep talk down the prequels can focus on hating this movie instead?
