Lets put both movies specail effects on the side and compare character development and connection with same.
Agreed both were just redos of 1930's Good vs Bad serials, but the original had diverse charaters, simple but deep character development (you could feel the deep black ruthless evil of Darth Vadar), sutile and slapstick humor, plus suprise at entering a new world. I found much of
this fundamental chemistry lacking in this offering.
The new one is far from bad, escapist fun, seamless effects/CGI and another strong female leader. But was left with too much focus on "tie-ins" and
not enough on story telling.
