Canon Bomb - The Jake Lloyd Fallacy

[@BrandontheAwesome]

Ah yes, I remember the good old days, back during the Ice Age, when I would send hate mail to Jake Lloyd.

[@Narrowdark]

I remember back in 1999 when I was a 1 year old and would send hate mail to Jake Lloyd on a daily basis.

I remember the good old days back in 1999 when I was making YT videos attacking Jake Lloyd.

@@darthprime1990 I don’t even know if YT was a thing, that’s crazy!

It wasn't. YT was founded in 2005.​@@Star-Wars-Skran

[@CloneCaptainKeeli]

The hate that the phantom menace got was mostly on forums and wasn't aimed at Jake Lloyd but rather Jar Jar. Fans didn't do anything to Jake Lloyd, but they will keep pushing that because it helps pedal the "Star Wars fans are toxic" narrative.

I was in my 20s when it came out and I enjoyed it, was it as good as Return of the Jedi no. And nowhere as good as Star Wars or The Empire Strikes Back. But it was ridiculous that people older than me were acting like Lucas violated their childhood. I do think Duel of the Fates was incredible and certainly better than the duel in Return of the Jedi. Which to this day despite the mental duel of wills between Luke and Vader and the chorus, is so disappointing after the duel in Empire. I still showed up on opening day for each of the prequel films. I preordered the VHS and DVD for Phantom Menace. I got ten years of Star Wars Insider to follow the production of the prequel films.

[@Star-Wars-Skran]

@@matthewgaudet4064 empire is still my favourite duel! I was obviously a kid at the time of phantom menace and everyone loved it, I recall my some people saying stuff about jar jar but in hindsight they were just copying what they had heard. The prequels are so different from the OT but great in their own right. Thanks for another insightful comment Matey !
