>still surprised in this day and age

anon, i wish i had your innocence.

Again? That shit started all the way back to 15 or whatever with that doctor Aphra shit.

>entire article

>diversity, cis male, genders, etc

I honestly thought these faggots would at least tone it down with this kind of tumblr talk after their "allies" started making fun of them over it too to save face, but apparently I was mistaken.

>>11640

Of course not. That would mean surrendering to the Drumphler.

Someone should tip SC Reviews about this article - this will help speed up his redpilling process quite a bit.

>implying Kylo Ren is remotely intimidating

>Boba gets his own Chewbacca clone with black fur

>most of the villains are just evil versions of existing characters

>endless praise for memes and being unoriginal

Fuck I hate Dorkly.

A list of five things split up across three pages for maximum pageviews, is there a more cancerous format?

> Boba Fett's evil, black-furred wookie friend

> C-3P0 and R2-D2 with black paint jobs

> Strong, independent black admiral who don't need no Vader

> Dr Mary Sue

> Helicopter lightsaber

What great competition for Vader's angsty grandson. He's actually in perfect company.

>>11869

>Emo Ren

>not Goth Vader

>>11872

Everything about that character is hilariously bad other than the stereotypical sith persona (except he's not a sith according to them despite doing everything they can do apparently). His Knights of Ren being such an epic and irrelevant dud really caused a lot of butthurt amongst nufans who loved cosplaying as those useless fuckwits.

>>11796

oooh, Krrrsatan what an original name

>>11893

Kylo praising Darth Vader's helmet was also disturbing, I knew from that trailer disney would fuck up. The Last Jedi has force ghosts so all the no more ghosts in nuWars really died out between nuFans and now they can't explain why Anakin Skywalker didn't talk to Kylo. Even Qui-Gon Jinn yelled at Anakin for killing those sand people.

>>11796

>it's a black and edgy clone of Hanharr

It's laid out for them on a silver platter, they've got everything they need to plagiarize write a half-decent evil Wookie. Hell, this one's bounty hunter too! They can take it with zero repercussions, and with zero effort, and they still manage to fuck that up.

>>11902

Almost everything they've made is a cheap knock-off of pre-existing elements and characters (or weaker bastardizations like Thrawn and his posse), even Solo's new "ex-wife" is just a duller version of his half-mutant ex-gf with a purring habit from the comics.

>>11903

>>11905

Kylo's mask and the costumes of his shitty knights are praised by nufans all over and even by old fans because "it looks just like Revan lol". Almost every fucking SW youtuber has a shitty Kylo mask visible somewhere in their videos.

That can't be good…

I was just thinking the other day that it's curious how Disney is still okay with Legends stuff getting published and sold, despite flying in the face of their shitty nu-canon. Really feel sorry that the frogs are going to lose access to the good universe now. I'd opine that Legends is pulling in far too much dosh in English-speaking markets for Disney to pull the plug, but then the mouse doesn't seem all that interested keeping Lucasfilm profitable, so who can say.

>>11580 (OP)

It's obvious that the marvel sw comics were made for normalfags who complained about the old eu

>>11945

I feared as much. Even the article is comparing this to outright censorship. Disney is actively trying to kill the past and censor it for being problematic (almost to the point of revisionism) because there were probably "too many men" (and that tranny villain that one time). Its only a matter of time before this same bullshit follows suit everywhere else.

>>11949

If they think they can stop people reading the old EU books, they're idiots.

>>11945

Wait, are there any books that weren't translated into french yet?

>>11951

more the opposide, I for instance buy more 2nd hand EU material. No pennies for sindey!

>>11963

Seems so.

>>11580 (OP)

>diversity

>focusing on females

>not diversity of aliens

Seriously, I never understood why they focus on human minorities. The aliens seemed more interesting and cool.

>>12227

Because aliens are seen as an even cishet shitlord's excuse to not add "real" diversity. Instead we now get movies and media filled to the brim with obnoxious humans all trying to be a positive representation of some stupid real world group nobody gives two shits about, because this is supposed to be fucking Star Wars.
