Yes, it's easy to view Lucas' films with a rose-tinted lens, but try and watch them now and you see: poor acting, poor writing, one-dimensional characters and plot points.


And by far the coolest looking spaceships ever seen in any medium. The production design was incredible.

At least X-Wings, TIE Fighters, Corellian Corvettes, Imperial Shuttles and Star Destroyers. Not a fan of the Millennium Falcon tbh.


The TIE Avenger starship [1] in the series seems incredible. I cannot find the official toy.

Yes indeed, looks really damn cool.


I didn't think we loved it for the acting, but the production and world building which Lucas excels at IMO.


And the John Williams soundtrack.


The acting is perfect for the campy story Lucas was trying to tell.
