Reposting from the "Wedding Bell Blues" thread:


To your point then: Were the filmmakers behind The Wrath of Khan just suffering from "extreme laziness on their part?"

Yes.
But that's across nearly a decade between different creators.
This was an episode, where they retconned dialogue from a previous episode.
That's absolutely laziness on their part.
Did that in Discovery too.

Almost every prequel I’ve seen was nowhere near as good as whatever it was a prequel to. That’s just my subjective opinion, but it is what it is.

Godfather II

Godfather II

Do flashbacks count as a prequel?

What abou the Star Wars Movie Prequels along with the numerous TV series that it spun off?

 

[Ray Hardgrit]

Technically, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly isn’t a prequel, because Clint Eastwood isn’t supposed to be playing the same character as in A Fistful of Dollars. That was just a later retcon.

He finds his iconic poncho at the end of the movie.

That was a retcon. He still wasn’t supposed to be the same character.

The Star Wars prequels sucked balls. I have not seen any Wars shows that take place during the prequels.

Clone Wars is pretty damn great.

Half-quel?

"Plus there's no drama because we know how the War ended. The Allies won."

Okay, long as there’s equal laziness.

Clone Wars is pretty damn great.

Which one? I heard there were two.

 

[Turtletrekker]

Which one? I heard there were two.

Both, actually.

 

[fireproof78]

Which one? I heard there were two.

The TV series is highly regarded. The film is ok, and the little short run series is considered good.

 

[Dukhat]

I thought one was standard animation and one was CGI?

This one was standard animation with 3d cell shading for some parts: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_Clone_Wars

This one uses CGI not intended to be photorealistic and lasted several seasons: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_The_Clone_Wars

It's both a prequel AND a sequel!

 

[Dukhat]

Presequel?

BTW, whatever happened to that 'sidequel' of Ferris Bueller's Day Off where they made an entire movie about those two guys from the parking garage who stole Cameron's dad's car and went joyriding? I mean, that's gotta be theatrical gold, amirite?
