from what i can tell, the only good stuff they've put out is prequel related content. the darth maul comic by cullen bunn is great, i've heard nothing but applause for anakin/obi-wan and mace windu as well.

People are too trusting. They actually think the establishment have their best interests in mind, and if they decide to teach their five year old about gay sex, there's probably a good reason for it, backed by science, and think tanks, and smart people who have it all worked out.

It's less about them being trusting and more about them wanting the convenience of not rocking the boat. If the establishment says something that's obviously bullshit (which is everything they say), but they have enough news sources saying it, people will go along with it even if they know it's wrong.

A good testiment of a hack who don't know what he's doing. I mean, i get Tolkien, he had to, because the story was so rich but the rest, meh, it's just to sound good, there's no actual reason for that level of detail of mundane things.

I think the difference is going into wordbuilding detail versus going on about truly mundane details. That's why Tolkein gets away with it.

Disney's Star Wars doesn't have any roots and will fall rather quickly. The reason why fans of the past dislike this is its like having a country you lived in for a long time falling apart and you can't do anything to stop it.

With the way some nu fans have become strangely obsessed with Disney in recent times to the point where they love the idea of them conquering the world any means while also wishing death to their enemies makes them seem more and more like ISIS. Only thing they're missing is actual physical violence which they lack since they're either pussies or wimps, and there's ever rarely a need for violence since they're basically on the winning side of the filthy rich and greedy assholes of Hollywood and California.

Sounds accurate. But what about the rare bunch who actually think the prequels are better eh? Also RLM definitely was a major corrupting force. Look at the PT's and OT's RT and Meta scores before and after they made their review. There were major dips in percentages almost a month after their shitty video gained popularity. Its unnerving how much influence RLM gathered despite not being that good to begin with and basically being hacks themselves who barely got ahead in the industry and whose only films were pieces of shit. Their rise in fame almost feels artificial.

Pretty much. Bf2 was a lootbox shit show. Pay to win for a 60$ game. Major backlash but EA and D will keep on shitting on.

The /tg/ side of star wars is doing great oddly enough. That is where I'm chilling. The ttrpg is amazing and the various card/board/miniture games are decent.

FFG is the publisher and are respecting the lore and fans big time.

Meanwhile, modders for the real Battlefront II, Empire at War, and even Sins of a Solar Empire continue to crank out game modifications which work as expansion packs, if not entirely new games themselves. Not sure if this applies also to the Galactic Battlegrounds, but I wouldn't be surprised if it did. shill shill

Love fan and community works more than the companies. Not to sound like a fag, but I really belive the spirit of star wars is in the peoples hearts. Fan mods and rpg'rs are today's great examples, back in the day it was the small studio's that hammered out greats games.

Big D can shit the bed all they want, but star wars never dies.

That's the worst thing about it. Imagine if Wendig had gotten the rights to re-introduce HK-47 into nu-Canon. He would've just been a Deadpool 2.0 copypaste. Its disgraceful. Things are bad enough as it is without bringing in the forced meme superhero.

CoM was lame as fuck imo. But KH2 was fantastic in terms of gameplay (the storyline would've been better without the Nobody bullshit). Gameplay-wise that shit was a barrel of fucking monkeys fun. Must've replayed that crap and 100% everything 5 times while skipping cutscenes after the first playthrough. Also the music was AAA++++, especially the music in that fucking Tron level which still gets me pumped, and the fucking remix for 2.5 was orgasmic. The story was still crap though, but the world setup and characters did feel more alive and true to the source material compared to the limitations KH1 had to deal with.

>muh star wars is bad because it has to be muh good and evil

This is the fucking neo-marx rhetoric Disney is pushing though, they WANT it to be solidly black and solidly white. We can't have people rooting for the evil nazi Empire!!! No sir. We need strong African queen wymyn on the heroic noble feminist Resistance side. There can be no nuance!

The PROBLEM of Nu Wars is that it's aiming for a white-black moral narrative. That's a bad thing.

While I agree that yes, the Empire is styled up to ebil white nationalists. But I think that the character assassination of Luke, and trying to make Kylo Ren sympathetic, while promoting the "light side/dark side dont mean anything" meme in Rebels and other media is trying to remove Lucas's intent. And you can make Good/Evil narratives compelling without making it infantile like Disney does. Darth Plagueis, Darth Bane, and Tarkin for example are complex and layered characters but they are still evil. Likewise, Kyle Katarn, Luke Skywalker, and Han Solo are also similar but good.

The neo-marxists hate "black and white" narratives though. A marxist would claim that the Empire was not all that bad and would argue against classifying them as "evil". Stop with the post-modernism.

why is it that anytime i try to debate someone on why the disney movies are good/bad, they can never properly debate and instead try to call it quits while they're ahead? like holy shit, they open up this can of worms themselves and then can't handle the pressure of being told a different opinion.
