    The content of that video has.....very little to do with the title.

    I have no idea what kind of point he was trying to make.

    I had no idea, until this very moment, that Lucas wasn't the director for Empire Strikes Back.

    He also thought Star Wars wouldn't do as well as Close Encounters of the Third Kind:

    Saw this last night. Everything up until they started fighting in the streets had me falling asleep in my chair, after that it was pretty lit.

    BG seems to try really hard to make this shit a love it fanboy exclusive when it's generally just a bad movie. Forest Whitaker and Mads Mikkelson's characters were blatantly botched lol. Only thing people are going to remember from this movie in a year is K robot and Vader end scene. Good job on "expanding the lore" lmao.

    I enjoyed the shit out of this movie, as a die hard fan. I've only seen it once due to a crazy busy schedule, but I want to see this multiple times more still.

    I think they did a great job in general. I think the characters are quite memorablr, though I honestly don't know basically any of their names.

    Star Wars movies are about the light side vs. the dark side, Rogue One was about the rebel alliance vs the empire.

    I will say neither of their characters did anything for me at all.

    I don't know what people expected. People want the connection a 3 part series gave them, but they want it with a larger cast and only one movie, wut?

    For what it was, a prequel setting up ep4, it was perfectly fine. It literally did what it set out to do, and didn't leave inconsistencies like everyone was afraid of. Mission accomplished.

    People keep trying to take this movie on it's own, while taking the rest of the series at the very least in their trilogy state. This movie is much better if you take it as an addendum to the series and not some standalone that could possibly stand up to your nostalgia.

    The thing is, as I've said for other movies. Each and every movie should stride to be able to stand up on it's own and be a good movie. Again, I thought this was better than 1-3 but worse than 4-7. It landed smack dab in "ok" town for me. I think some of the other things we saw in the previews looked better than what some of the scenes ended up being at the end.

    I won't disagree that I wish studios would release more movies in a series that could stand on their own, but that's kinda the nature of the beast. No one would even have been as excited for this movie if it wasn't for the assumption that we'd see some Vader. Now look how those 5min during the ending that turned into the best part of the movie.
