Perspectives keep rapidly changing - Lemmy.World

I think my kids are old enough to appreciate the jokes in Full Metal Jacket now. I got them to watch LOTR and now we started with The Hobbit. Star Wars next, but that’s a tough one, since it seems old to them, but maybe I’ll start with Rogue One since it’s the best modern star wars movie.
Honestly it might be the best Star wars movie, period. At least from todays perspective. The original trilogy was groundbreaking for their own time but haven’t aged the best. As with many media, what was innovative 40 years ago is cliche and stale today.

Solo is the only Star Wars movie they’ve released since the OT in my opinion.

The rest tried too hard, but Solo had the YEEHAW which made Star Wars great.

I know folks hate it, but it was fun in the way Star Wars (ANH) was for me as a kid.

Rogue One?

Was a great movie, I loved it.

It was set in the Star Wars universe which I love, but my statement is more about the “yee haw hold on to your assholes” that Star Wars was before there was a Empire strikes Back even.

What I loved about Star Wars is what Solo did for me
