    Better storytelling than the prequels, but there was no story to tell.

    The prequels at least had a story, but it was told poorly.

      Something Lucas did well in my eyes was world building. To me that’s the most redeeming part of the prequels, the universe felt vast yet connected. The sequels felt small in comparison and a little too familiar. The only place I wanted to see more of was Kijimi.

        I sort of agree. World building was good as long as it stuck to establishing interesting characters and planets, but George had the tendency to cram the screen with CGI creatures which served no purpose other than to dazzle and distract the viewer.
