Robert Meyer Burnett, George Orwell answered your question about "What do the Sith want?" in 1984. "The object of power IS POWER." People who seek power only have the goal of gaining, compiling, and maintaining their power.

[@Azure_Gunbreaker]

Yeah, that's exactly what they want. I don't know why people keep wanting complex villains when the Sith from the get go have and will always be about power and how it corrupts. Of course there are interesting and unique Sith, but their goals generally are the same to amass power to rule their own empires.

The crazy part is all these Holywood people insult and deride their fan base, calling them racist, sexist, etc. But then also complain they didn't watch their shows. Did they want such "horrible" people to watch their stuff and be their fans? You can't say every one who didn't like your show is bad and then some how come off as good for wanting their money.

[@ronnimm6456]

They literally told people, "we didn't make this for you we made it for a new audience. " Then, they are infuriated when the unwanted masses didn't watch. They can f right off.

[@JustaGuy_Gaming]

@@ronnimm6456 It is one the funniest parts of modern holywood logic. "I can't enjoy X because I don't see myself in the characters". Then they remake the entire project to better reflect themself, then complain when other people don't watch it. If they truly believe you can only enjoy a main character that looks exactly like you, why are they surprised the majority don't watch their drivel? By their own logic men of any kind, Hispanics, etc all can't enjoy the Acolyte because it doesn't look like them.

[@smalls9852]

I am so tired of the entitlement and blaming of everyone else in Hollywood. Not all shows make it past a year. Heck, most shows don't make it past the pilot. I was just watching an interview with Jewel Staite where she talked about how grateful she was for the short time she had making Firefly. She had nothing but wonderful things to say and even thanked the fans for keeping it alive, even though it was only on for one season and has been off for so many years. We need more actresses like her!

My favorite star wars to date is a fan video series on KZbin called "space janitors". The main characters are space janitors on the death star and it gives their perspective.

The Verge, like many companies, is only great because of the culture between you and other eager, and talented creatives. Strip that away, and it operates not unlike a mafia. Your value is tied to your latest contribution, and there’s pressure not to leave or compete-or face the consequences. It’s great that you’ve broken free and are now taking control of your creativity and its rewards.

[@ragtowne]

I had no problems with Billy Dee Williams as Lando Calrissian, Samuel L Jackson as Mace Windu, Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia, heck even James Earl Jones voicing Darth Vader - the Acolyte broke canon in ridiculous ways, and suffered from terrible writing, directing and acting - some characters were "wasted" others were so poorly written you could have eliminated them and it would have tightened up the pace - to fix obvious holes in the "plot" they introduced ridiculous MacGuffins - I could go on - it was a 90 minute murder mystery with no mystery stretched out to 400 minutes - and there is no way this looks like $180,000,000 - and it had terrible viewership and lost a lot of money - those are some of the reasons why it was heavily criticized and not renewed - and HISHE summed this up nicely in less than 2 minutes.
