listen i want the star wars sequel trilogy to share the same fate as the thor trilogy

1st installment: a solid well directed movie. some nice visuals, good goofs, a balance of content for existing fans and new fans. villain kills his own dad. a good set up for future movies.

2nd installment: a hot mess. tries to be dark and edgier™️ but fails. plot is convoluted and the bad guy is underwhelming. we try to root for our favourite characters even if they are a little ooc. beloved parental figure is killed off in a way that doesn’t really raise the stakes

3rd installment: saved by taika waititi. upbeat colourful space romp. parodies darker previous installments at times and has lots of good laughs. protagonist is related to villain who gets their comeuppance for being a genocidal imperial monster. also definitely some gay shit in there.
