It's 20XX and people are mad online about Star War!

 At least Lucas was willing to go out on a limb and say “you know what, fuck you guys, this movie is about Darth Vader as a kid, and he was annoying as shit” and “no you adult dorks, these movies are for fucking kids and as proof here’s a fish man that talks like he’s from the carribean. Eat shit”

Disney is like “let’s let just make it up as we go!” And then to save the last movie are like “fuck? We need to hit all the nostalgia buttons hard. “What’s Harrison Ford doing? Is he available to shoot some scenes?”

But like none of the new characters are really worth bringing back for the next trilogy

[agrajag]

it's kind of fascinating how Disney treats the extended universe with even less respect than Lucas did.

she actually fits the role, feel like she could really kick someone's ass. scarjo makes the dick hard, but it's always silly watching her fight anyone.

I think that if Lucas's second set of films was made between 2016 - 2020 the reception would've been very different simply based on the improvements in CG animation and such.
Many of the things he wanted to do simply didn't work on a technical level. So even if the plot would've still been dumb in places he could've had his big clone wars play out on the big screen.

Not to mention that maybe he wouldn't have kicked off the trend of stuffing as many CG enemies on screen as possible for big fight scenes.

The prequels were dogshit beyond the effects (which were mind blowing at the time).
But i'll give Lucas this: He tried something different with it.
The prequels don't just feel like a re-thread of the original trilogy, which i guess is what a lot of fans took issue with in the first place.
But then this new trilogy can get so fucking dull with the call backs.

[agrajag]

I guess the makers of Solo were onto something with their portrayal of Lando.

[TVC15]

His idea of gender fluid is "sometimes I'm soft and sweet, which is a feminine quality"

I think this is how a lot of REE thinks too based on their broad definition of asexuality.

[Nintex]

So uh, Disney edits out cigarettes from making of featurettes

[Stoney Mason]

The mandalorian is good so far. (Good not great.)

But I hope this whole show though after this season isn't the protect baby yoda show. I'm hoping this is just the plotline for season 1 and as the show continues its about other things.

[kingv]

I found Mandalorian sort of disappointing.

It’s fine, but I feel like a few shows at that quality are not going to be enough to carry Disney+

Ezra is like Luke's age, he could feasibly have died from old age. Or he gets some kind of badass hero exit in a future piece of media.

Or since it's just his voice, he's not dead at all.

Everyone dies anyways, even most fictional characters, soooo...

Fans took umbrage not so much with it not being enough like the original trilogy, but more at it being incoherent.

This is the first time we're learning about him since Sabine took off to look for him, yeah everyone dies, but still fuck off with him showing up dead next time. Also fuck off killing Ashoka the White Mage like this too. No one's going to care that they are here telling Rey to persevere as they had fuck all to do with her. I was hoping Sabine and Ezra show up in a show like Mandalorian somewhere down the line as Ezra would be the only person available to train baby yoda and Sabine is the defacto Mandalorian leader. That would spin off into a series where they show how Ezra and later Sabine fought Thrawn wherever the fuck they went.

[Tasty]

I'd say they'd never do that because it would mean kneecaping your show's appeal by shoveling in four seasons of backstory from a separate series (in a different medium, animation), but then again Disney's basically doing a similar thing by having them in Rise of Skywalker at all. So who knows?

[Tasty]

Also, again, he might not be dead. It's more profitable for Disney to keep him alive, or in his current status of "maybe alive," than to close off that door.

I believe most leaks have settled on Rey just receiving voices, no visions or Force Ghosts.

And the Force Ghost canon is out the window anyways with

She turns around to see Senator Palpatine's warm smile.

Perfect reliable mediocrity is JJ's shtick, train wreck is not his usual approach.

So either these leaks are fake or intentional to throw off the fans or ? 

[agrajag]

Mandalorian was boring again. I guess this is how the shiw is gonna be, villain of the week style. Give me more Herzog.

[I'm a Puppy!]

Had a friend that's a huge star wars geek say that the caped individual at the end of Ep. 5 is Boba Fett. Dude better be wrong. The only way it would be cool would be if the mandalorian kills Boba finally and for good.  It would be a massive misstep.

[Great Rumbler]

I decided I wanted to watch some real Star Wars [as in the movie released in 1977] so I grabbed the despecialized version off the internet show and put it on. Man, it still holds up. It does so much right and so little wrong. Even some of the really jank special effects shots aren't really all that bad, usually there and gone in a second or two. I'd yeet the whole special edition in the trash for good to get a high quality release of the original versions.
