I liked Star Wars until it was beaten like a dead horse. Now, it is comparable to Marvel garbage which is itself almost as bad as the Star Wars EU. It’s a full circle. It’s like poetry, it rhymes.

In truly outrageous Star wars nonsense, they are retconning the name of Jizz music to "Jatz" and I've never been angrier.

dr_rat posted:Also notably he originally listened to other people and let them reign in some of his crazier bullshit. When Lucasfilm employees were contractually forced to agree that George was right about everything Star Wars it was not a good sign. The prequels had a lot of good ideas clumsily executed and a few bad ideas that should have been pruned. I wonder what the prequels would have been like if Marcia Lucas was still there to guide George.

The prequels was Lucas saying "we've filmed all the good parts of pulp sci-fi, now lets do the bad parts".

I like that stars war people keep pretending the setting at large is important but it 100% isn't. The only people that matter in any capacity, and decide everything, is one specific family. If you aren't in their "bloodline" (which is a gross story concept I've always hated) then you really don't matter. Also gently caress anything that requires homework to fill in plot holes and bad writing. gently caress your expanded universe bullshit. You're advocating official fanfiction because the base media is badly done and that says a lot.

They keep on flying into space, making FWooosh noises with their mouth to make it sound like their going hyper fast then flying back down to a different part of the same planet. Everyone on the star wars planet is just really insecure about how garbage they space ships are and how slow they go, so they just all play pretend.

The starwar family is like the Godfather family. In fact you can direct parallels. I won't, but you definitely can.

I thought Captain Phasma looked really cool and, since I'm a horror nerd, I was intrigued by her being named after Phantasm. Did that mean she'd have little metal orb droids to attack people? Then she didn't do much in Force Awakens and did nothing in Last Jedi except fall in a pit. She also apparently died, which was only confirmed at a comic con panel. If I wanted to learn more about the character I could read a novel or a comic book tie in, but it feels like a character who was set up as Finn's archenemy should probably have her story completely told within the movie. That whole thing kinda soured me on Star Wars as a whole. It's still pretty cool and I'm glad it's out there for people who like it, but I don't think you can pretend it's great storytelling or anything. It's fun space action of wildly varying quality.

The Sequels mostly broke my fandom. For the first time ever, I did not go to the theater to see a new Star Wars (The Rise of Skywalker). I did finally see it online, and big meh. That said, Mando and Andor have relit the beacon somewhat.

It's gotten so convoluted that you'd think by now someone would have stepped up to make a half-way decent parody- even if was a remake of "Ice Pirates".

Whenever George Lucas named a character something like "Sleazebaggano" or told a video game company that wanted to call their game villain "Darth" that they could use "Darth Icky," I want to believe he was being as passive-aggressively dismissive of the Wookiepedia-type people who take Star Wars too seriously as everyone else should be.

Even if he wasn't being passive aggressive it still owns because he's putting in the exact amount of effort star wars deserves "This is Ranz Glucky, a fat alien who sells hyper-pods or something, he sounds Italian"
