Every movie, upon becoming popular, opens itself up to fan scrutiny. Thats just the way being a fan works - you watch and re-watch, you discuss and re-evaluate, until eventually you start nitpicking over details that just dont seem right anymore about that movie you so love. In the case of Star Wars, add five more films and a fanbase that's arguably more passionate and wide-reaching than any other and you're looking at something thats received a whole load of critiquing over the years. Some are fair - the original trilogy has one or two biggies (like rebels hiding Luke and Leia from Darth Vader in incredibly obvious places, or the fact that George Lucas made Leia Luke's sister as an afterthought), while picking holes in the prequel trilogy is like shooting fish in a barrel - but there are other criticisms of the films that simply dont wash. No film franchise is perfect, and Star Wars is no different, but the truth is that the films are carrying reputations that arent always fairly warranted. Taking into account criticisms of all six Star Wars films, as well as the criticisms levelled at the mere trailer for the yet-to-be-released seventh film - The Force Awakens - Star Wars, it would seem, is in some areas in need of even closer scrutiny.
