Phantom Menace is at least some what original, Force Awakens is an inferior remake Why watch Force Awakens when I can watch A New Hope instead?

I’m fine watching either one but this film has better moments and more interesting failures

Epic lightsaber duels and nostalgia factor.

In my opinion, "The Force Awakens" was, as George approximates it, a "nostalgic" movie that, imo, for the first time since the prequels, regressed the franchise. "The Phantom Menace," (and KOTOR) pushed the needle forward, rethinking what Star Wars could be, adding many iconic elements to the lore.

The other two sequel movies ruined Force Awakens for me, and at least with Phantom Menace I fall asleep every time I watch it, so I get to see about the first half, which is nice.

The way George made his films feel like a 1930s Shakespearean serial is astounding, and Phantom Menace is both fun and thought provoking in its narrative. Now this is Star Wars!

The prequels are the Star Wars films I grew up with. While The Force Awakens is probably an objectively better film, how the Sequel Trilogy turned out as a whole ruins the films individually for me. Phantom Menace is just pure nostalgia for me. Plus pod racing and that final light saber duel!

The prequels are amateurishly made.

Even though its a rehash of ANH its still more entertaining to watch than the phantom menace.

Despite a weak finish in its respective trilogy it was a very promising start that has alotta enjoyable moments vs moments or characters I dread rewatching.

The characters in this for more fleshed out and are given their own identity, voice, and goal. Not all character share the same goal even Rey and Finn as they are together but clearly want different things for themselves. Finn's arc in this film alone is great especially. Acting is far better too.

So, I'd really be happy with either. However, Bane interests me more for this series, as they seemed to be hinting at him with that green substance Batman uses. As much as I really like Hardy's portrayal, we've yet to have a comic-accurate film version that has much time to shine and be his own man.

Bane would probably fit the tone/stylw of the universe better, but he has been done in live-action movies twice already.

I don't have to pay for it, but I don't really use it too much anyway. I don't care for the originals, nor do I like their selection anymore.

I actually just cancelled it this month. To be honest, I still think they have good content just as a backlog of older movies I’ve never seen. But they’re too darned expensive.

In the beginning the Netflix Original came with some sort of prestige, they have not manage to do something as good as Orange is the new Black or House of Cards, sure they made some decent stuff here and there , but overall, nothing good enough to stick around.
