#the prequels had shitty dialogue? that's subjective but either way its the same exact quality of dialogue as the original trilogy
#so if you constantly make fun of the pt for its dialogue you HAVE to constantly make fun of the ot for ITS dialogue
#or else we both know that thats not the actual reason its just an excuse
#the prequels had shitty cgi? they were all made in the late nineties/early aughts i wont say this this was the most cutting edge shit around
#but it was pretty standard quality special effects for the time#you can't hate on a film because it's cgi aged poorly its unfair because this was quality shit at the time
#the story was dumb? i have nothing to say to that because i can't help you if you don't have taste
#ewan mcgregor was the only actor from the prequels that the 'fanbase' was even a little bit kind to
#hayden christensen never got a moment's peace about his (fucking GOOD) performance and yet somehow despite that
#maintains nothing but love for the films and excitement and joy at his return which makes absolutely no sense
#because given the amount of shit he got he should be going through a (completely justified) fucking joker arc fr
#natalie portman was treated horribly for daring to be a woman in a star wars film and then even more after the films were made
#for daring to talk about star wars
#despite the fact that she was In The Movies
#like that one tumblr post where someone sends an ask about who does she think she is wearing a star wars shirt when she probably #hasnt seen the movies
#(same ask might have also called her a bitch idk)
#where the person who received the ask has to be like 'that's natalie portman and she was IN THE MOVIES'
#jake lloyd's life was basically ruined and he was a fucking child when he was in the phantom menace (never forgiving y'all for that one)
#and even alleged prequel lovers act like they needed to be 'fixed' like the way some 'pt lovers' talk about tcw and how it 'fixed' the pt
#as if they arent just spouting the same shit that pt haters say fr #but that's a topic for another day another post i wont get into that now
#i speak #star wars #kenobi #i've been a prequel stannie basically from birth i wont allow former pt haters to jump on the bandwagon
don’t forget how the poor actor for jar jar binks, ahmed best, was bullied and harassed and sent hate so much he literally considered suicide
and there are people who complain about the prequels focusing on politics like??? that’s literally the whole point?? what did you THINK was going to happen with a story that tells about the republic’s last days and how the empire was born? 
sorry not sorry but if you were ever a prequel hater i’m gatekeeping you from being a prequel lover now that it’s popular to do so. you don’t get to shit on the prequels for no reason only to turn around and be a prequel stannie (ESPECIALLY a hayden christensen stannie) now that kenobi is the hot new star wars thing. obikins don’t touch my post, i am also gatekeeping you <3
