If you're going to tell me what my complaint basically is, then at least try to understand the complaint first.
I do understand you're argument, thanks for the condescension though, I just think it's wrong. It all looks choreographed because it is.

Oh sure, wasn't really my point though. There's enjoyment in being miserable. Was all I was really saying.

And you wouldn't get the same reaction had you simply skipped the prequels.
Which one? The one done by the guy who did Samurai Jack is amazing and everyone should watch it. The fact that they dropped it and ignored it for canon is a real shame.

Rogue One is the best Star Wars movie to date, including the original imho.

I'm really excited to see what happens in Episode VIII.
Episode 7 had the problem of all the previous generations of Star Wars fans to complain about it. People who were new to the series seem to overwhelmingly like it. Not that that means the movie is good mind, but it's not like it's hated.
