This is a silly example. But it illustrates what I'm talking about. I've had people tell me that seeing bombs dropping in space broke the immersion. So I have ask them why TIE bombers dropping bombs in space doesn't phase them? To date nobody can answer me.
Or earlier I was talking about how Imperial/First Order officers are almost always arrogant or inept. And this allows our heroes to get away. But when TLJ does it, it's bad writing, and it's a bad movie for that. But when ESB does is, sure it's bad writing, but oh well, I love the film so I'm going to overlook it.
I guess what I'm trying say, is when someone points out a flaw in one of the new films as evidence to show that it's a bad film. While ignoring the same flaw in an OT film. Thou art barking up the wrong tree.
I just wish more people could acknowledge the flaws in all the films, rather then conveniently picking and choosing. That's how I've come to love them all. It's because I've accepted that they all have their flaws
Some more then others *cough, Attack of the Clones, cough*
