I like these new movies better than the original trilogy. And I say that as as someone who grew up with the originals as a kid. The acting is better. The effects are better. The stories are at least comparable (often because it is blatantly copied). Rogue One is my favorite just because it was different, it segued so perfectly into Ep IV, and you finally got to briefly see Vader be a total badass.
I still love the originals, but they're more nostalgic than exciting for me now.
The biggest problem with Force Awakens is how blatantly they copied Epi IV. The biggest problem with Last Jedi is how f'ing dumb and riddled with plot holes the whole middle part of that movie was. Just being honest. I still liked it overall, but not sure I'll take my kids to see it in theater because I just don't want to sit through another hour of purple haired Laura Dern, Finn and Rando Asian Chick, and Ocean's 11 to get to the good stuff.
