    Well no, because it's still ultimately an opinion.

    It's opinion VS educated opinion. A true critique is backed up through example, and through precedence. It's the difference between Jeffrey Steingarten who know's whether something is good based on technique and precedence and your average Yelper who writes "LOL, dis resturant sucks!!1!!1"

    I prefer the OT and TFA these days, but at the same time, I consider myself a Saga Fan. I'm sick and tired of one side of the fanbase bashing the other side of the fanbase and vice versa. OT fans come up with better reasons why their trilogy is better, but many of them have this insufferably smug attitude towards those who disagree. Meanwhile several PT fans either cannot come up with logical reasons why their trilogy is better, or they refuse to altogether due to a huge persecution complex.

    I will be curious what the fanbase will be like for the sequel trilogy in 5 years or so. I hope it gets better.

    But the only reason for making a critique of something is just to put across an opinion.

    It's not like backing up an opinion in politics or management.

    It's art.

    Even if I was the most educated person ever, I might still dislike the OT.

    There's no point listening to criticisms of films you like.

    Learning more about film won't make your opinions count more.They'll still be opinions.

    I'm mostly looking forward to the "I only like the Anthology movies" crowd.

    So is this thread.

    I think we've gotten all the civil input we're going to get as to whether OT fans also like the PT.

    Our best hope is that the fanbase eventually becomes so disparate that nobody can figure out who the 'enemy' is any more! :p
