One of my many nerd groups I’m is is one for pre-Disney Star Wars fans which is mainly an EU group and we were talking about how all these shill sites have so many good things to say about the EU now when I can remember them talking about how bad it was when Disney took over. Honestly that was my first awareness of the shill media because nerd sites who were pretty positive about the EU all of a sudden started crapping on it once Disney got rid of it.
Some of the guys see this as a positive sign but I guess I’m cynical because I think they just realize that the sequels and a lot of Disney Star Wars isn’t as popular as they want us to believe. Plus I hear the OT toys still sell pretty well.
So what do y’all think? Is this a positive sign or am I right to be cynical?
Im still bitter at the fan reaction to Midichlorians.
This single handlely crushed the man's enthusiasm.
He sold out , he deemed himself unfit.
He sold to the biggest dog on the market. Hoping the investement was enough to make them work on it.
They consulted him for 8. He went "not my problem".
I forgive the zealous re edits. I cant forgive how people treated the man who created what they say they "love"
Good.
George Lucas was one small piece of what made Star Wars great, among an entire cast and staff of people working their hardest on it, including his ex-wife.
The prequels were him deciding that he could do it all on his own and didn't need anybody else.
That's why they were shit.
Yeah, too much freedom and confidence, Its just the man living the dunning kruger, I grew up with the prequel releases , and sure there was alot of love scenes that I hated as a kid. As an adult, they really fuel the character of Vader.
He isnt just a bad guy, he's a dude life has stolen everything from , left with only his rage.
