the Disney star wars movies are far worse than dumb, they are retarded:
they actively shit all over the known rules of Star Wars with dumb shit like the "holdo maneuver",
they retcon almost everything in star wars, such as the fact that the rebels won,
they actively ruin established characters like Han Solo and Luke Skywalker
the main character is a shitty Mary Sue
other characters like captain phasma, the black guy, and the fat azn girl, are total jokes. overall they were way worse than jar jar.
The prequels are almost charming next to the disney movies. It's like if you take a really plain, homely girl, and then stick her next to a grotesque tranny. The disney movies aren't just bad, they push the franchise into the negative by destroying what they were given instead of building on it.
I can at least appreciate that George Lucas was telling a story he loved even though he's a bad director. Kathleen Kennedy is a monster who raped our childhoods.
The prequels are a "last hurrah" for a kind of moviemaking that died with the 80s. Where the director had this grand fantasy vision and did as much weird and cool stuff as possible on his budget and left it to the editing room nerds to put together a comprehensive movie out of it.
Sword and Sorcerer, Spacehunter Adventures in the Forbidden Zone, Boy and his Dog, Krull, Beastmaster, Ice Pirates etc.
Except with an effectively unlimited budget and nobody willing to rein in the "legendary" director you lost a lot of the creativity and innovation that comes from making something visionary work out of constrained resources.
the prequels are just dumb but not retarded.
