As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a big fan of the pre Disney Star Wars Expanded Universe books and comics. I find it interesting they wanted nothing to do with the EU and thought it was smart to alienate myself and all the other fans who faithfully bought the books and spent time in forums, but they seem to keep mining it for content and even more interesting they don’t want to turn their crappy High Republic into a tv series.
Of course we could play a drinking game for when we hear “updated for modern audiences”, “i never played KOTOR”, or showcase the diverse cast
The worst part is, even if they don't "modern audience" it to death, they'll still hire a director and writers for their diversity cred instead of talent and the show will be garbage.
Reminder: they don't make stuff woke because they think people will like it, they make stuff woke so that everyone is too busy complaining to realize they've done a shit job everywhere else.
That Sweet Baby inc cofounder bragged about why they inject woke shit; to force their political views on mainstream culture. She likened it to making a fussy child eat vegetables. If you only give the consumer what they actually want, you can't use media as a vehicle for social change.
That happens for a reason. Children can't digest the same foods as adults yet and so their bodies literally try and reject/avoid things like brassica plants, cabbage, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, broccoli, etc because children physically can't handle the levels of glucosinolates in them until older. Forcing children to eat those can unironically result in poisoning them.
