 * commences rant agains Episode VII*

Eoros will rant like LeafyIsHere, and make slightly immature comments, but shall still get his point across.

As a YouTube commentor put it on a Star Wars video: "The swag of the old republic and the sith empire shits all over this new recycled garbage", and what can i do but agree?

Mace Windu was pretty cool, and I also thought that Hayden's acting was bad (there wasn't enough emotion where there needed to be), but come on, it was still pretty good seeing the fall of Anakin and that amazing battle on Mustafar.

I entirely agree with Dino with Kylo Ren. He was SuperMinecraftKid, turned into a newbie dark side adept. And that fight was lame against Rey. A trained Force user, versus this 17 year old girl from Tatooine (oh, I mean Jakku, not that there's any real difference worth nothing) who recieved next to no training, except from a strange vision she got when she picked up Anakin's lightsaber. What was that? My grandma could have fought better than that!

I swear, if VIII is just like Empire Strikes Back, I will literally smash my head into the wall until I get a concussion. I wouldn't be surprised if it is, considering I can't see the plot going anywhere else.

I would personally much rather have seen a movie about the Old Republic or the Yuuzhan Vong war, but now that that's all non-canon, it has almost a zero chance of happening.

About the Legends, personally, I thought it started getting a little corny after the Yuuzhan Vong war. "Oh gosh, another Sith uprising! Gah!" And then, another one, and another one, and another one, until some triumvirate happened and the lore aprubtly ended. I like to think it was happily ever after once the Yuuzhan Vong war ended.

Honestly, Kylo Ren is somewhat better in the scenes with his mask. Without it he sucks, especially in that duel. That's an even worse case of heroes suddenly being more powerful than villains who should be able to shred them than Obi-wan V Grievous was, even if Kylo Ren did take a bowcaster shot to the chest right before the duel and was visibly bleeding from it.
