"Say something Nice about the ST" was trending on Twitter just the other day.
That was cool to see, although I have to admit that I think some of the ST fans, particularly a segment of TLJ fandom goes a bit over the top in their praise of it. I'm sorry, none of the ST films are better than the OT and no, The Last Jedi is not better than Empire.
I'm saying this as someone who really likes and admires a lot of what TLJ did. Please stop, haha. You're making us lose credibility. I get that the toxicity leveled against it was disgusting and unfair in a lot of cases and it's a way of fighting back against that, but let's at least be real here. The ST doesn't have a fraction of the sheer originality, innovation and beautiful simplicity of the OT. You can certainly like it more, but saying it's a better film? Nah brah. Rian Johnson himself definitely disagrees with you.
