Working from home most days allows me to listen to a lot of podcasts/youtube while I work and I came across Chris Gore's Critic Court and the first one they put on trial is Disney Star Wars. I'm biased of course and despise Disney Star Wars so it was fun to listen to it. The prosecution and defense members are pretty funny although for the most part the ones defending Disney remind me of pro wrestling heel that is playing a role except for one guy who was in the entertainment industry for 30 years parroting the Disney shills by talking about toxic fandom and Ryan Kinel showed him a sample of the death threats he receives.
As a massive EU fan my favorite part was over getting rid of the EU. In hindsight, seeing what Disney is all about I'm glad they don't use it, or I wish they wouldn't use it at all because they seem to cherry pick and bastardize. I wouldn't be surprised if the Ashoka show is a bastardization of Heir to the Empire or if the Rey movie had a big bad like the Vong. Too bad they can't just give the EU to fans and let them produce books/movies/video games. Darth Angelus for instance is doing a great job adapting Heir to the Empire considering that he can't make money and is just doing it for fun.
Anyway, check it out if you get a chance. Very funny and very good.
The more I see about Ahsoka, the less I like.
Having not read the EU or seen the Disney Star Wars version, I have no idea how much of that is parody and how much isn't.
At this point, this is legit better than what we're getting. Not even kidding.
Same. I mean I don’t have Disney plus anymore but I’m not going to pirate it. It just looks like bastardized EU stuff
