You have to have a very high IQ to understand the star wars sequels freamon.
The subtext is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of the extended universe most of the references will go over a typical viewer’s head.
There’s also Luke’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Kilji Illumine literature, for instance.
The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of this allegory, to realise that they’re not just worldbuilding- they say something deep about LIFE.
As a consequence people who dislike the sequels truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rey’s famous line ‘Somehow palpatine returned’ which itself is a cryptic reference to how palpatine’s force spirit possessed the clones of himself he had prepared in advance.
I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as J. J. Abrams’s genius wit unfolds itself on the cinema screens.
What fools … how I pity them
