The Absolute State Of Star Wars

'Remember when geek culture was reserved for actual geeks who cared about the subject matter rather than political activists...." That's a really great quote

Since Disney bought SW, I went from anxious trepidation, to hesitant optimism, to disappointing betrayal, and finally, apathetic indifference.

Disney not having a coherent three-movie storyline before filming the first movie and not having a reunion of arguably the three most beloved sci-fi characters in history was inextricably stupid beyond belief.

I’m calling it now. The Rey spinoff film will be the Star Wars equivalent to The Marvels.

To me, Star Wars died the moment they announced that the EU was non-canon after the Disney merger. Not only did Disney throw away their cheat sheet for pre-established lore, but also willfully threw away many people's hard work, while Kathleen Kennedy can prop up her narcissistic self-interest fan fictions. That just doesn't sit right with me.

God, can you imagine Rey trying to train a new generation of Jedi? Padawan: What lesson today, master. Rey: No lessons, you're just going to pick up this lightsaber and be the bestest ever. Just like I did.

Remember the wise words of Rich and Mike: _"How does it feel to have lived long_ _enough to see all your favorite_ _franchises go down in flames?"_

Problem with the big corporations are: they essentially buy franchises as properties and instead of trying to appeal to their the fans which make ( and more importantly, keep) them relevant; they try to alienate them as fast as possible. This happened with the DCEU, MCU, Star Wars, Star Trek and who knows what else. In pursuit of profits, they essentially kill the essence of these franchises. Is is any wonder that almost no body like these corporations anymore?

It's basically Zombie Star Wars now. Disney Lucasfilm has completely turned it into a hollow shell of what it once was.
