Any Star Wars movie is better than Avatar

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 things set up in TFA and TLJ phucked it up

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

Sure why not

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

TPM < Avatar
AOTC > Avatar
ROTS >>> Avatar
ANH >>> Avatar
ESB >>>> Avatar
ROTJ >> Avatar
TFA > Avatar
Rogue One >>> Avatar
TLJ < Avatar

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.
