@redeemer6666: Don't forget Peter Jackson. The Hobbit films were far worse than the Star Wars prequels.

Protip: if you want to avoid spoilers, the last place you should be reading is the comment section of any internet site.

@CatAtomic999:

The same thing evidently happened with Peter Jackson and The Lord of the Rings.

I will say the one thing that George Lucas was best at was choosing space ships designs. He has an incredible eye for industrial design and what works on the big screen. You can see the new folks and Disney are scared/intimidated by that legacy and not even trying to come up with new designs, instead just copy pasting the X-wing, TIE, and Falcon again. McQuarrie helped draw those ships but Lucas originally picked them out among the hundreds of design concepts.

@sapienecks:

If you've been following this new movie, you'd see it's even less innovative than the prequels... same spaceships (Falcon, X-wing, TIEs), same enemy ("evil" white empire), same starts on a desert planet then goes to a frozen and forest one....

@Myron117:

But I thought it took place in a Galaxy Far Far Away, not our own world.

Where are the mixed race aliens? I want to see a cross between Jabba and that six armed '50s diner dude in Attack of the Clones.

@xolivierx:

If Nolan directed Star Wars, we'd get the Inception horn when the STAR WARS title appeared, the whole trilogy would've been set in the Coruscant underworld, the action scenes and light saber battles would've been choppy and hard to follow, and Darth Vader would've been retconned to have Throat Cancer.

@ahpuck:

Except without him it wouldn't even exist since he invented it...

Funny how the next news article down is about Resident Evil 6, and how Capcom is porting it to yet more systems rather than pulling it and issuing refunds.

Oh dear, they picked the **** one. I just hope it's not Chris' blood.

I hope they toned down the suicide bombers. Got tiresome after a while that the only real threat in the game was such a cheap enemy.

Also surprised they didn't delay this game or something out of "sensitivity" to the Paris attacks.
