I increasingly see that question on other forums and it drives me up the wall. That question is a perfect storm of two things: ▪︎the mindless consumer fanboy-ism that has destroyed all major film franchises ("it contradicts the lore, is objectively miserable, and an active waste of my time, but it has Star Trek in the title, so I'll watch it.") ▪︎developmentally stunted inability to fill in any blanks whatsoever
I promise you, Pee Pee Poo Poo: The Musical: Season 1 has absolutely no key nutrient you have to absorb to comprehend season 2. In fact, if we're talking one of these shows that go through three showrunners a season, it might be more comprehensible if you skip the earlier stuff.
I saw someone on another forum mention that they were trying to put together a large convoluted watching order for Star Wars content for their kids.
What a retarded clown world, when the answer isn't simply: The original trilogy and maybe the prequels. But no, some parents just "have" to groom their kids into cons00ming all the endless garbage. Just like their NPC parents already do.
The Expanded Universe had a lot of good books. Comics too but not everyone is into reading
Aye, absolutely. I'm sure we've talked about that once or twice in the last year or two actually, lol.
I have stupidly wasted time with Disney shills who say “well it’s not canon”. I’m like so what. Seeing Luke rebuild the order and mentor students vs seeing him as a grumpy hermit
Oh dear lords, I was talking to an old friend a few weeks ago who's total gone full NPC and he just would not shut up about all the "positive" things happening post-Kathleen Kennedy, no matter how many times I told him I wasn't interested.
He was practically drooling at the prospect of any EU type content being converted over into new-Disney format. I've never in my life wanted to be deaf as much as I did in that moment. Especially when he starts bringing up Disney's idea of "canon".
I do agree that I would've liked faithful adaptation of EU content, but Disney was never ever going pull that off. Not even sure if LucasFilm under George Lucas would have either, but at least I wouldn't have been as instantly jaded and cynical at the prospect.
