The discussion heavily focuses on the Star Wars franchise, spanning from the Prequels through the Sequel Trilogy, along with updates on various MCU properties, X-Men films, and other blockbusters like the Fast & Furious entries. ## Detailed Analysis The reviewer conducted a follow-up to his four-year-old review retrospective, noting that changing opinions is crucial, not inconsistent. Regarding Star Wars, he affirmed his 10/10 scores but lowered "The Phantom Menace" to a 2, finding it boring, and kept "Revenge of the Sith" at a 5, criticizing its merchandise-pushing subplots like General Grievous. He downgraded "Rogue One," influenced by the quality of "Andor," citing its mismatched, bombastic score. For the Sequels, he maintained "Force Awakens" at a 7, praising Finn and Kylo Ren but criticizing Kanto Bight, and discussed how the sequel trilogy mirrors the prequel arguments. In the DC realm, he reiterated that the original "Suicide Squad" remains the absolute worst superhero movie, while elevating James Gunn's "The Suicide Squad" to a 9. For the X-Men series, he now considers "First Class" his favorite (8/10) and dropped "Dark Phoenix" to a 1.5, finding it worse than the funny-bad "Apocalypse." He also updated several MCU scores, giving Loki a 9, keeping WandaVision at 7, and assigning a 7.5 to "No Way Home," viewing it as a fun but sloppy theme park ride similar to "Endgame." ### Star Wars Prequel Reassessment - "Phantom Menace" score drops to 2 due to extreme boredom - "Revenge of the Sith" stays at 5; General Grievous subplot is aggressively trying to sell toys - "Attack of the Clones" is deemed worse than "Phantom Menace" despite previous comments. ### Star Wars Sequel/Spinoff Updates - "Rogue One" score drops because its music is bad and doesn't fit the horrifying tone - "Force Awakens" remains a 7; Kylo Ren is called one of the coolest Star Wars characters - "Rise of Skywalker" gets worse the more time passes. ### MCU Show & Film Score Adjustments - "Loki" is upgraded to a 9, deemed the MCU's best show, superior to "WandaVision" (7) - "Wonder Woman 1984" is severely downgraded to a 2, called almost unwatchable - "Falcon and Winter Soldier" stays at a 5, labeled the definition of mid. ### X-Men Trilogy Evaluation - "First Class" remains the reviewer's favorite X-Men film (8) - "X-Men 3" stays at a funny 3/10 - "Dark Phoenix" is lowered to 1.5, deemed worse than "Apocalypse" because it isn't funny. ### Superhero Film Rankings and Gripes - Original "Suicide Squad" stays at 1 (Absolute Worst) with nothing redeemable - "The Suicide Squad" is elevated to a 9, called James Gunn's best movie and better than the Guardians trilogy - Criticizes new Spider-Man movies for having scenes dedicated to selling toys via new costumes. ### Sponsor Segment and General Philosophy - Video sponsored by Displate, where the creator commissioned a custom plate for his slain goblin wizard from a tabletop RPG - Creator stresses that internet opinion havers must understand they are not immune to changing their minds.
