I mean you're one of the few people that I know about that hasn't seen any of the Star Wars films. There's a pretty large following throughout the world that this appeals to.
This is the most anticipated film of 2017 for a reason...
An entire fuckload of people I know and myself are looking forward to Guardians of the Galaxy 2 way more than the new Star Wars movie, even though it's a cheap Star Wars ripoff.
ie: Groot and Rocket are a cheap knockoff of Han Solo and Chewbacca. Gamora is a cheap ripoff of Princess Leia, Drax is a ripoff of JarJar, Ronan was a Dark Helmet ripoff, and Star Lord is a ripoff of Jabba the Hut.
Anyway, IATA is more of an anomaly than anything. However, if I had been subjected to the first 3 episodes (PM, Clones, and RotS) to start the franchise, I would have never ever continued, excrement, I would have stopped with PM, that movie was freaking horrid and Clones might even be worse. I honestly think Lucas wrote those three in crayon, the writing was so freaking bad it made otherwise good actors look putrid. So I understand IATA 's stance. A good 1/2 of the Star Wars films are pure trash.
