    Moral of the story: the deadline of a movie should be when it's ready, not an arbitrary mandate by non-creatives looking for money.

    Give credit where credit is due, you can talk shit about the prequels all you want but they were at leats lucas' vision which in my opinion make them way more of star wars movies than the sequel trilogy

    "Why Does Attack of the Clones Look Like a Video Game?" - you mean wht does EVERY single BLOCKBUSTER since 2005-10 look like a video game? Bit underplaying it here. btw one of the most simple answers is "over grandure" - once the world, its explosions etc are so off scale to reality the brain snaps and flat out tells you its CGI, no matter how good or bad the CGI is.

    How often is an animated character better than an actor in an animatronic mask or a complete animatronic? I recently rewatched The Phantom Menace, or atleast as much as I was able to watch before falling asleep, and so many shots could have just been puppets and would have been much more charming and timeless.

    it's wild that some of the scenes that felt the most fan appeasing/back peddling from Last Jedi are revealed from the rushed timeline to not actually be that. it's also wild that a corporation like Disney can throw hundreds of millions of dollars at a project that isn't even half finished

  • @GGBlaster
    @GGBlaster Před 2 dny

    In retrospect, yeah it was stupid to even insinuate that the trilogy wasn’t planned out. I guess it was just that, from my perspective on the audience side, it felt disjointed, as if there was a lack of coordination between the teams working on each film. Again, I now realize that they did coordinate - I’m just am not seeing it as clearly in the final products.

    Dang! Trying hard not to compare to the Rise of Skywalker that we got, but Trevorrow’s Duel of the Fates sounds freaking awesome!

  • @valmarsiglia

    I don't know, those monsters in the arena look kind of rubbery, and they move too fast, which makes them seem kind of weightless.

  • @valmarsiglia
    @valmarsiglia Před 2 dny

    It's not just the CGI. I'm not a filmmaker or expert so I lack the vocabulary, so maybe it was the cinematography, but the prequels have the look of a high-end TV movie. They just don't seem very film-y to me. When you're watching ANH and Empire, there's no doubt you're watching CINEMA writ large.

    • @usul573
      @usul573 Před dnem

      I think Revenge of the Sith does look better than Attack of the Clones due to the upgraded camera and newer storage methods, but not quite the cinematic vibe of newer digital cameras used for Skyfall or Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 1.

  • @Koldeman

    15:08 - this is where TROS fell off the tracks. The movie feels like it was pitched by me & my friends playing with our action figures circa 1984. "Wouldn't it be cool if [fill-in-the-blank]?" "YEAH! And Chewie & Lando comes into the battle 'it's ok, everybody, we brought friends!" "And the Emperor is like, 'you can't defeat me!' and shoots lightning at all the ships!" "YEAH!!!" ...srsly, I'll bet this is how it was written & pitched to Disney execs. Meanwhile, GL's sequel trilogy story treatment begins to break down as it lay buried amongst the earthworms, countless discarded latte cups & half-eaten KETO salads with the rest of the refuse in the cold earth of Disney/LFL's landfill. This is more than just a crying shame- it's a critical FAIL for all parties involved.

  • @yeetleslaw8529
    @yeetleslaw8529 Před 2 dny

    As a child, I noticed this too. attack of the clones always felt like "plastic". I just blindly blamed "stupid CGI" "practical effects are better" Even if this movie had better VFX, let say, we give Lucas everything, more employees and including technology from 2024. The movie will still be hot garage.

    The prequel section not getting more time explaining the new aliens is understandable , and shows how much the prequels expanded on the bigger world of this fictional universe. Like general grievous is one fo the coolest ones. The Prequels really expanded the universe

    The Palpatine Body Snatching plot element would have been incredibly cool because it is also a plot element from the Darth Bane novel series finale.
