>Mandalorian
It ignores everything Disney. It handles the Imperial remnants a lot better than Disney too, by making them more similar to their expanded universe counterparts. The First Order bs hasn't shown up yet, nor has the resistance. The new trilogy was doomed to fail from the start. There was no real plan for a trilogy, as JJ mimicked ANH for the first movie and he didn't give a shit when it came to TLJ. TROS makes even less sense, and is Disney's effort to try and put a wrap on the shitpile they built.
I'm hoping Mandalorian continues to ignore the Disney EU, and do its own thing in its own way. The 30 minute time limit works well, because it means there is very little room for bs filler. This helps keep the spotlight on Mando and away from the people he meets.

Not quite. The 7th episode has Rogue One Death Troopers. Though they also showed up in Filoni's Rebels show so maybe it's more in reference to that. Still they promised from the beginning the show would answer how the First Order was created. Which may change now that there's been so much negativity from this garbage trilogy.

Yeah what this anon said is right, Filoni's Grievous is the one
s that consistent with Lucas' canon version. The 2003 Star Wars team only get a rough concept of what Grievous was. They got the concept from Lucas but they turned Grievous into what most fans like about him (being a cyborg general being able to challenge and kill Force-sensitive combatants).
The Wussification of Grievous rests squarely on Lucas' shoulder.
Then again i dislike 2008 Star Wars for making Mandalore boring as shit. Did it get better?, i hate seeing Senator's whatshername wanting to change the Mandalorian ways.

Ugly, yes, but I'm talking about they still look kinda humanoid, not completely weird, so they can still show some human-like expression. It's the safest design possible.
And it's logical from a marketing-point, I mean, look at SW9 where they introduced a fucking hair dryer droid. Who would like a hair dryer as a character?! There's a reason other droid are round and beeping, because that's appealing to us.

Humanoid? Yes. Human like? It's a stretch. Especially when some of the creatures are missing normal human features. A safer option would be something cuter, cooler, or even just painted humans.

So I thought about this topic again. Maybe it's fine that they make generic, ugly, brown aliens.
To me, Episode 1-3 lost much of the Star Wars identity. Sure, it was nice to see different planets in e.g. the Order 66 scene, but the Diner scene sucked. The design was all over the place. You could argue it gave SW a new identity, but I didn't like it.
I rather have the grey/ brown/ orange "dirty" look of the original trilogy, then Disney turning SW into Guardians of the Galaxy or Thor. I think that's the indention, not to fall too much into the design of those movies, completely taking away the identity.
I mean in SW9, when all the ships appeared and it was like Endgame, it was so jarring to me.

How can assholes judge whats bad or not, when they are assholes rewarded for being assholes?
All opinions are fake, just for the sake of being pissed. Noone can tell me there's NOTHING good in the new movies. Thats bullshit.
People who complain didn't even friggin grow up with the first franchise, but Episode 1-3. And I bet they sucked George's dick when it was released. Whining is a trend now, so you suddenly hate things. Opinions feel fake now.

I think you're in the wrong place buddy. Have you even seen the new movies? Separating them from the past movies, which you can't because they're sequels, they're still bad movies on their own. People aren't rewarded for voicing this & pointing out the flaws of them. They're just being praised by other people without a wide voice who agree with how far their beloved franchises have fallen. It's not just hating something to hate it. There's merits to the points people make against this series.

Its not crititicism. It ugly ass thumbnails saying it sucks or its shit. Because they actually CAN'T criticize anything. They are fat fucks who copy the opinion of other people.
Remember when people started to suddenly say Star Wars 6 sucks, or Ghostbusters 2? They have flaws. They don't suck. But talentless retards copy each other's opinions and everyone praises it. It's a shit system.

You're being incredibly vague & providing no examples. You're judging purely based on the cover of a video without actually watching it from the sound of it.
There was no sudden surge of people disliking those movies one day. That's not how opinions work. It's just something you hear more common now because people have an increasing number of ways to voice their opinions on things opposed to just 2 decades ago.

>It's full of feminist drool and retarded even in parts that aren't.
Yeah thats what I mean, that's the fat virgin neckbeard argument for everything these days, because they're scared of a pussy and know they don't get any.
Since they are fat fucks they hate any woman that does more than cook. Also, latent facists, all of them, out of their own self-hate.
Yes, Rey is a Mary Sue, and Rose is absolutely disgusting and I hate her, but I don't blame Rey for the movies to have flaws (I consider Kylo to be the main character, actually). It's a combination of many reasons. Rose though… yeah… she ruined SW8 to me. But not everything sucked in SW8.
Honestly, people don't have their own opinions and only copy shit from Plinkett reviews, without noticing it's often not meant too seriously.
Some time ago, I was at a store for trading cards, board games etc. and some ugly fuck was like "Star Wars sucks! Did you watch 'Rey is a Mary Sue' on Youtube?" That was his argument. Someone else's argument, he probably wouldn't have thought about with his tiny brain. He probably learned about what a Mary Sue is THAT very moment.
Myself I disagree. Sure, she is very Force sensitive and is able to do anything in an instant, but she's constantly on the verge of falling to the dark side. A Mary Sue is a perfect, nice character who would NEVER fall to the dark side, because… I dunno… she's chosen by god or some shit.
You know who also is hyper Force sensitive and has no flaws? Baby Yoda. Does anyone call him a Gary Stu? Naw. He's a cute baby. Those are fucking flawless right?

Speaking of a can of worms, I guess this means Snoke & all his vat clones are just failed clones of Palps? That'd be the only logical connection. There's also the matter of the movie having Clone Palpatine say he wants Rey to kill him so he can take over her body. Yet when she does he doesn't do it. It's just so much unexplained, poorly thought out, pulled out of the ass writing that needs corrections now.
