Definitely 70's

Also good, but I'm thinking of the third (final) one.

Man of Steel. I must have seen that trailer 14 or 15 times and got goosebumps every time.

The movie, no goosebumps.

> better than a majority of m nights recent stuff

Ain't that the truth

Ok

"Mixed critically" would be the way to put it, overall reception was still more positive than not. It was "The People vs George Lucas" that started the "They Suck" trend. And I wouldn't say they are loved now either, your last sentence is spot on, they were just used to slam the Disney movies.

I mean the internet happened to them (The people vs George Lucas...)

Speaking theatrically (theatrical releases)

You may not be old enough to remember but the prequels were liked when they came out, it was later after Sith when people had time to think (and the internet happened) that they became hated.

> Like a week ago there were a bunch of posts about how Andor is maybe the best piece of Star Wars media ever. Now we're on, "Guys, is Star Wars dead?"

And it bombed when it launched because of the current state of most of Star Wars, only incredible word of mouth (and putting it on Hulu) has helped it rebound. It's a ray of hope, but it's an uphill battle.

It's no use, you've summoned the stans now, logic and reality will not stop them.

> Would Disney be willing to throw out the baby with the bathwater?

Not under current leadership, very much a double down until the scorched earth end mentality there. Until the leadership changes, it's dead.
