It is. The last half of TFA is cringeworthy stupid.
Not saying I disagree, but it should be mentioned how people started hating on it hard after Johnson's TLJ.

Personally I think people were just taken in by the hype of a new Star Wars film for TFA.
But as time went on, they realised, its a kind of dumb film.

You know in your heart JJ wouldn't screw up nearly as bad as Rian with TLJ.

There were bad things set up in TFA, which TLJ just made even worse.

Are people really pretending that the prequels were more competent and better films than any of the Disney Star Wars outings?

In a rare moment, I agree with TI. I'd rather watch any SW flick over Avatar.
Avatar was neat when it came out, because of the highly advanced 3D, but the the film/story is just meh. Sam Worthington is also a shitshow.

ROTS and AOTC are better than Avatar but that isn't saying much

I wasn't much of an Avatar fan when it came out, but it's technical mastery from Cameron on down is second-to-none. Unfortunately, that's all it did right (well, Stephen Lang's villainous colonel was solid), and each Star Wars film has either great characters, incredible action sequences, dazzling effects, fulfilling plots, and/or music that is some of the best in film history. The only reason I put TPM and TLJ lower is because
1. TPM is an outright bad movie besides the Darth Maul vs Obi-Wan & Qui-Gon handicap match
2. TLJ is a very well-made film on the production values side of things, but the plot threads from TFA that go nowhere, butchering of original trilogy characters, worst-made sequence in SW history on the casino planet, and force-fed agenda drag it down too much for me.
