Originals: 9.5/10
Reasons:
- Historically important as it destroyed 70s auteur cinema, and unleashed modern franchise cinema (for good or for worse)
- Well told, easy-to-understand fairy tale with happy ending for all ages
- Unique art design
- Music and Sound
- Technically innovative (motion capture cam)
= more than the sum of its parts
Prequels: 9.5/10
Reason:
Unique dystopian story of downfall of liberty and corruption of values. Dark ending
Iconic art design
Music & Sound
Technical Innovations (digital, CGI composition, cams)
Extended mythology and worldbuilding (including video games and Clone Wars show)
= more than the sum of its parts (auteur cinema)
Sequels: 3.5/10
Reasons:
- Incoherent, conflicting storytelling,
- Rehashing of previous films, partially undoing them, repeating the same finished storyline
- Lack of innovation in art design
- Poorly implemented modern politics
- Poor man's OT
= less than the sum of its parts (corporate fanfiction)
