Which was worse?
>>
Rogue One.

At least TFA didn't rely on nostalgia.
>>
>>82089166
TFA, it's a rehash and the camera work is awful, it looks like a TV show
>>
Rogue one but both were shittier than the prequels honestly.

VII is easiestly the worst in the franchise

could be done on purpose. easily making VIII and IX better by default
>>
>>82089166
Rogue One, but I enjoyed both.
>>
>>82089166
I'm not even sure how TFA is considered in the same league as Rogue One.

R1 is the kind of Star Wars universe side story that we've all wanted for years. It's cheesy but enjoyable.

TFA is hot garbage throughout.
>>
>>82089166
I have to admit that I was pretty pleased when I realized everyone was going to die in R1
>>
>>82089166
rogue one was worse by a long shot
>>
TFA no contest.
R1 felt like a fanmade youtube movie but it still captured how star wars should feel.
TFA felt like some crappy corporate plastic wrapped piece of fucking shit.

Both pretty much the same thing. R1 had the better British brunette actress lead, cause Ridley is awful

Vaders stuff was so stupid in that movie though
>>
TFA was worse, because at least Rogue One was about something besides the same fucking incestuous jedi family line. It's not very good, but it's at least TRYING to diverge into what could be considered the "Disney EU". TFA is an act-for-act soft reboot and it's about the exact same shit as always, the MUH SKYWALKER BLUD timeline needs to fucking stop forever and we need to explore something other than the same 6 fucking planets or whatever. Let's see a movie about a totally new bounty hunter character or something.

>Han Solo origin movie

FUCK
OFF
>>
>>82089166
both are specieist shits

how come we can't have a lead who's a duros or rodian or bothan or something instead of a human or shitty droid sidekick repeat
>>
>have a whole universe you could explore

just like most normie service via callbacks

the veil was lifted 40 years ago, the energy has gone. also pretty dumb because of how engaged and fast he was. I liked Vader's power level when it was more mythos than displayed fact.

>>82089166
TFA

Rogue One starts slow but I like the ending act, whereas I didn't really like any of TFA.
>>
>>82090446
Yeah it didn't make sense compared to how he acts in the OT but whatever. It was just lame and out of nowhere to randomly add his big scene right at the end of the movie
>>
TFA was a retread of ANH

R1 was at the end completely pointless though since no one gave a fuck about how the deathstar went down so easy

also

it introduces an additional continuity error in that the 2nd deathstar is destroyed in the same way

you're telling me the empire examined the plans of the first one, scaled it up, and copied it exactly without checking to see if theres something that can cause it to go to tits up?
>>
>>82090618
The plans for the second one were different, but were also stolen by rebel sympathizers. The 2nd time by Bothans. Hence "many Bothans died to bring us these plans".

both were worse than each other

In a vacuum, rogue one is worse. But VII is such a blatant inferior remake of IV that it becomes worse by default.

At least rogue one had an attempt

>>82089166
TFA, it's a pile of nostalgia bait garbage with mary sue female protag with cis white male villain.

RO was slightly better, but that's not really saying much.

TFA, no question. Rogue One was unironically a fantastic movie. My third favorite of the series.

>>82089166
TFA. At least rogue one had a different tone so stood out in some way.

Also it had a much better villain and I like the action more, but otherwise it still wasn't grear

TFA, but only because Rogue One had an ESB-tier dark ending and a deeper spirituality to the Force that I enjoy seeing in Star Wars. I actually loved both.

They also both have better original droids than the prequels.

Is Star Wars the franchise of which the fans hate each other the most for disagreeing about what each of them enjoyed and didn't like about it?

Snoke is the worst. Bad design, bad voice, probably a shitty backstory.

This is just like how Han and Motti didn't remember the relatively recent era of people taking the force seriously. That galaxy is full of retards.

OTOH it might be that there is no news media in the galaxy and the kinship information we know from the movies isn't relayed to the plebs.

In retrospect Rogue 1 had almost no action until the very end. Pretty much the only fighting was that scene at Jaffa in the market, but that seemed stupid. Why would the rebels choose to fight in the most crowded area of the city, where there would be the highest collateral damage?
And other than those few seconds of the main characters just running away from that fight, we just saw the blind guy kill a bunch of people easily. It was fun to watch, but not really a fight scene.

I'll give The Force Awakens the win in the action category purely because there is actual fighting between Kylo and Finn/Rey. But the end scene in Rogue 1 is still better.

In terms of story, both were shit. TFA made the antagonist look like a complete chump, and made Rey way too powerful for the first part of a trilogy. The enjoyable part of a trilogy is to watch a character grow, and you can't see that with someone who beats the villain in the first installment.

Rogue 1 was also shit because it's an entire movie based off of like 5 seconds from another movie. And Jyn is basically the exact same person as Rey. It's ridiculous that they rehashed the same "little girl who lost her parents and grew up in a rough environment" story. But Rogue 1 also tells a complete story, since the cast dies at the end, and the entire thing is complete. -- I don't really care for how they make the character development so fasted paced though. There's only like 30 minutes in between "you don't care about this cause at all" and "rebellions live on hope." They did basically no character development or action for the majority of that movie. It's pretty awful. Then there's the fact that it's called "Rogue 1" and that's just a title they think of on the spot. If they had that name be relevant to something that took place earlier in the movie - similar to "Stardust" I'd be okay with it. But they literally just think of the name on the spot, it's garbage.

I guess The Force Awakens wins.
