no. they don't. it's never been about making something they want for their group. it's entirely about colonization of white male media so they can demoralize and brainwash young minds... and self insertion.
a shocking percentage of these characters end up looking very much like the new writers, and even if they don't, it's always everybody-clapped style power trip fantasy writing with them effortlessly showing up or defeating a paper-bag-male. it's the female trope of harpy-tier man hating, because they know they can't do that shit in real life. they can't even come close.
for example, according to spoilers, acolyte is basically making the white male jedi order out to be the villains. multiple in the first two episodes have realized-the-errors-of-their-ways-and-self-deleted or been easily bested by the strong-female-lead-of-mixed-morality.
I think another big part of it too is that they're essentially so hateful and cynical about almost everything, and this is one of their many trolly "fuck everyone else" moves, for an easy paycheck.
On top of shoving that narrative up everyone's ass.
At least Will Smith’s kid felt more honest about what it was. “I wanna make a movie with my son, I’m a big enough star to make that happen, so here are some movies with me and my son. We’re even playing father and son, because this movie is really just an excuse for us to be in a movie together.”
It’s a shame the movies didn’t turn out good, but it didn’t feel quite the same as taking over a property like Star Wars to shove your relatives in. (Although given that Hollywood can’t do original stuff, those movies probably do represent a terrible adaptation of something, so maybe I shouldn’t be as forgiving as I am).
Same as Adam Sandler movies. They're just excuses for him and his buds to go on vacation somewhere and charge it as a business expense, but you know what you're getting with them.

Or are actually played by relatives...
yeah, that shit is a fucking joke. talk about nepotism. this one is worse than will smith's kid, and everyone knew that shit was bad.
